Installation manual
3. Step-By-Step Outline of Installation 4-2010
After assembly, and before initial operation, all fuel system connections, hose valves, regulators
and fittings must be tested and proven free of leaks using a soap-and-water (or equivalent)
solution while the system is under gas or air pressure of at least 1.5 times the supply pressure
or 3 psi (20.7 kPa) minimum.
· Apply the soap-and-water solution to all fuel system connections, hose valves, regulators
and fittings.
· When the system is running, bubbles will form where air/pressure is leaking from the
system.
Other approved methods of detecting leaks can be used if appropriate. DO NOT use a flame to
test for gas leaks.
3.8 Engine Exhaust
The exhaust system for this generator set is complete and was designed specifically for this
engine. Do not modify or add to the exhaust system of this generator set.
WARNING: EXHAUST GAS IS DEADLY! The exhaust system must terminate away from
building vents, windows, doors and sheltered spaces that may not have
ample fresh air ventilation.
WARNING: Engine discharge air and exhaust carry carbon monoxide gas (odorless and
invisible) which can cause asphyxiation and death. Never use engine
discharge air or exhaust for heating a room or enclosed space.
