Operation
Switching ON
Check the following every time before use:
 Is the generator securely attached to its concrete foundation or an approved device?
 Is the generator properly grounded?
 Are all safety devices fitted correctly?
 Is the PTO shaft fitted correctly between the tractor and the generator?
 Is there enough oil in the gearbox?
 Have the power cords of all electrical loads been disconnected from the generator?
When operating stationary PTO-driven equipment, always apply the tractor parking brake,
and block the rear wheels on both sides in front and back with wedges or other appropriate
objects.
Starting the generator
 Never start the generator with the main circuit breaker set to ON or closed position.
 Plug in the desired electrical loads.
This may be done in the following ways:
1. Connect power cord set to the 120 Volt, 20 amp receptacles.
2. Connect power cord set to the 120/240 Volt, 50 amp receptacles.
Only run the generator at a PTO shaft speed of 540 rpm. Higher PTO shaft speeds will
damage the generator and may cause personal injury.
 Start the tractor.
 Set the PTO shaft lever to 540 rpm.
Only close circuit (turn breaker ON), when the panel frequency meter indicates 60 Hz.
If the frequency or the voltage is too low or high, adjust speed accordingly.
 The correct operating frequency is 60 Hz.
 Switch the main circuit breaker to ON or to the closed position.
 Switch ON the electrical loads (e.g. appliances).
