Standby Generator Sets Important Safety Instructions WARNING: GENERAL HAZARDS The engine exhaust from this product contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Standby Generator Sets Important Safety Instructions • Generators installed with an automatic transfer switch will crank and start automatically when normal (utility) source voltage is removed or is below an acceptable preset level. To prevent such automatic start-up and possible injury to personnel, disable the generator’s automatic start circuit (battery cables, etc.) before working on or around the unit. Then, place a “Do Not Operate” tag on the generator control panel and on the transfer switch.

Standby Generator Sets General Information IDENTIFICATION RECORD NOTE: For actual information related to this particular model, please refer to the Manual Drawing Listing located at the end of this manual, or to the data label affixed to the unit. DATA LABEL Every generator set has a DATA LABEL that contains important information pertinent to the generator.
Standby Generator Sets Equipment Description EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION COOLANT RECOMMENDATIONS This equipment is a revolving field, alternating current generator set. It is powered by a gaseous fueled engine operating at 1800 rpm for 4-pole direct drive units, 3600 rpm for 2-pole direct drive units and 2300 - 3000 rpm for quiet drive gear units. See the Specifications section for exact numbers.
Standby Generator Sets Engine Protective Devices ENGINE PROTECTIVE DEVICES OVERCRANK SHUTDOWN The standby generator may be required to operate for long periods of time without an operator on hand to monitor such engine conditions as coolant temperature, oil pressure or rpm.
Standby Generator Sets Fuel Systems FUEL SYSTEM PROPANE VAPOR WITHDRAWAL FUEL SYSTEM FUEL REQUIREMENTS This type of system utilizes the vapors formed above the liquid fuel in the supply tank. Approximately 10 to 20 percent of the tank capacity is needed for fuel expansion from the liquid to the vapor state. The vapor withdrawal system is generally best suited for smaller engines that require less fuel.

Standby Generator Sets General Information GENERATOR AC LEAD CONNECTIONS ALTERNATOR POWER WINDING CONNECTIONS See “Voltage Codes”. This generator may be rated at any one of three voltages, either single-phase or three-phase. The electrical wires in the unit’s AC connection (lower) panel should be installed according to the number of leads and the voltage/phase required for the application. If there are any questions regarding lead connection, refer to the wiring diagrams at the back of this manual.
Standby Generator Sets Installation PRIOR TO INITIAL START-UP INSTALLATION Refer to the separate “Installation Guide” supplied with the unit. to initially starting the generator, it must Prior be properly prepared for use. Any attempt to PREPARATION BEFORE START-UP The instructions in this section assume that the standby generator has been properly installed, serviced, tested, adjusted and otherwise prepared for use by a competent, qualified installation contractor.
Standby Generator Sets Installation • Open the valve to the engine fuel line. • Bleed the fuel system of air. (necessary for long fuel lines). • Open the generator main line circuit breaker. • Connect a manometer to the gas line and record the static pressure. It must be as listed in the Specifications. • Insert the fuse into the control panel. • Move the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to the manual position. The engine should now crank and start. • Check voltage at the generator terminals.
Standby Generator Sets Operation GENERATOR CONTROL AND OPERATION not crank the engine continuously for longer Do than 30 seconds, or the heat may Refer to the appropriate control panel operator’s manual for this unit. • • OPERATING UNIT WITH MANUAL TRANSFER SWITCH If the generator was installed in conjunction with a transfer switch capable of manual operation only, the following procedure applies.
Standby Generator Sets Maintenance MAINTENANCE PERFORMED BY SERVICE FACILITIES COOLING SYSTEM Air intake and outlet openings in the generator compartment must be open and unobstructed for continued proper operation. This includes such obstructions as high grass, weeds, brush, leaves and snow. working on the generator, ensure the fol Before lowing: Without sufficient cooling and ventilating air flow, the engine/generator quickly overheats, which causes it to shut down. (See the installation diagram.
Standby Generator Sets Maintenance EXERCISE SYSTEM Figure 10.1 - Oil Dipstick and Oil Fill Cap Start the generator engine at least once every seven days and let it run at least 20 minutes. For more detailed exercise information, see the respective sections in the Control Panel Technical Manual that is supplied with the unit. OIL FILL CAP INSPECT COOLING SYSTEM • Inspect engine cooling system. See “Maintenance Schedule”. • Check hoses for damage, deterioration, leaks, etc.
Standby Generator Sets Maintenance CHANGING ENGINE OIL Figure 10.3 – Engine Air Cleaner Refer to maintenance performed by service facilities for engine oil and filter change frequencies. Air Cleaner Drain the oil while the engine is still warm from running. This means warm up the engine, shut it down and drain immediately as follows: 1. Remove OIL DRAIN HOSE from its retaining clip. 2. Loosen and remove OIL DRAIN HOSE CAP. Drain oil completely into suitable container. 3.
Standby Generator Sets Maintenance MISCELLANEOUS MAINTENANCE 3. Have the state of charge and condition checked. This should be done with an automotive-type battery hydrometer. CLEANING THE GENERATOR DANGER Keep the generator as clean and as dry as possible. Dirt and moisture that accumulates on internal generator windings have an adverse effect on insulation resistance. Periodically clean generator exterior surfaces. A soft brush may be used to loosen caked on dirt.
Standby Generator Sets Service Schedule SERVICE SCHEDULE The following is a recommended maintenance schedule for small standby and residential generator sets. The established intervals in the schedule are the maximum recommended when the unit is used in an average service application. They will need to be decreased (performed more frequently) if the unit is used in a severe application.
Standby Generator Sets Service Schedule Maintenance Tasks Level 1 Recommended to be done monthly 10 Hrs. Level 2 Task Comp. (DateInitials) Required to be done 3 months/ Break-in 30 Hrs. 1. Disable the unit from operating per the first page warning. 2. Check the engine oil level. Adjust as necessary. 3. Check the engine coolant level. Adjust as necessary. 4. Check the engine coolant thermal protection level. Correct as necessary. 5. Check the natural gas delivery system on gas engine driven units.
Standby Generator Sets Service Schedule Maintenance Tasks Level 1 RecomTask mended Comp. to be done (Datemonthly In itials) 10 Hrs. Level 2 Required to be done 3 months/ Break-in 30 Hrs. Level 3 Task Comp. (DateInitials) Required to be done Semiannually 50 Hrs. Level 4 Task Comp. (DateInitials) Required to be done Annually 100 Hrs. Task Comp. (DateInitials) 13.
