GUIDE TO PRODUCT SAFETY This engine generator set has been designed and manufactured to allow safe, reliable performance. Poor maintenance, improper or careless use can result in potential deadly hazards; from electrical shock, exhaust gas asphyxiation, or fire. Please read all safety instructions carefully before installation or use. Keep these instructions handy for future reference. Take special note and follow all warnings on the unit labels and in the manuals. 3.
BASIC INFORMATION INTENDED USES These engine generator sets have been designed primarily for portable use. Both 120 and 240 volt AC receptacles are provided in the 'control panel' to plug in your loads (lights, portable tools, and small appliances). These units are dual wound generators, therefore the 120 Volt loads must be equally split with 1/2 of the rated capacity available on each of the two 120 Volt circuits. See unit capabilities for further explanation.
PREPARING THE UNIT substance will clog the carburetor and will not burn properly. The use of a fuel additive, such as STA-BIL, or an equivalent will minimize the formation of fuel gum deposits. If a unit has been out of operation for an extended period of time it is best to drain old fuel from the engine and replace with fresh fuel before attempting to start. UNPACKING CAUTION: EQUIPMENT DAMAGE THIS UNIT HAS BEEN SHIPPED WITHOUT OIL.
BASIC OPERATION The open circuit charging voltage as measured with DC meter or a volt-ohm meter will read approximately seven volts. The peak voltage will be over 16 volts in order to charge the battery . When the charger is connected to a 12 volt battery the battery voltage will immediately increase about 0.5 volts, showing that the battery is being charged.
BASIC OPERATION DANGER: PERSONAL INJURY Do not use galvanized pipe in the fuel line runs. The galvanized coating will become eroded and flake off, causing possible obstruction or damage to the regulator or fuel valve. The obstruction could cause an inoperative engine or an explosive fuel leak. Size of pipe required for generators operating on natural gas/ LP gas.
BASIC OPERATION 3. Automatic Idle is in the 'Off' position 4. Visually for loose parts. STARTING HINTS 1. Cold weather a. Use the proper oil for the temperature expected. b. Use fresh winter grade fuel. Winter grade gasoline is blended to improve starting. Do not use summer gasoline. c. A slightly richer fuel mixture will usually improve cold starting. STARTING The throttle control on these generators is preset and locked to operate at 3600 RPM (nominal) with no load speed set at 3750 RPM.
OPERATOR CARE AND MAINTENANCE slight variation in speed also affects the frequency of the output current. This frequency variation has no appreciable effect in the operation of motors, lights and most appliances. However, electronic equipment and clocks will be affected if correct RPM is not maintained. See Load vs. Output chart. When in doubt consult the manufacturer or a local electrician. The nameplate amperage rating for electric motors can be misleading.
OPERATOR CARE AND MAINTENANCE b. Receptacles - Quality receptacles have been utilized. If a receptacle should become cracked or otherwise damaged, replace it. Using damaged or cracked receptacles can be both dangerous to the operator and destructive to the equipment. 2. Checking the Oil Level: The oil level must always be checked before the engine is started. Take care to remove any dirt or debris from around the oil fill plug before removing. Be sure the oil level is maintained.
24 MONTH Limited Warranty WINCO warrants to the original purchaser that the alternator is free from defects in workmanship and material for a period of two years*, provided it is installed, operated and maintained in accordance with WINCO written instructions. *NOTE: Units used for rental, demonstrations, commercial or prime power applications such as construction or utility, are warranted for 90 days. Units that are resold are not covered under this warranty.
