Mounting
generator to engine
Step 1:
Attach the Engine Adapter
plate to the mounting face
of the engine using the
hardware supplied with the
generator head. Before
tightening the bolts make
sure the adapter plate is
flush against the engine’s
machined surfaces near the
mounting holes. Torque
the bolts to 16 ft lbs.
Misalignment will cause
generator failure.
WARNING:
ALWAYS shut off the engine and disconnect the spark plug(s) before installation or
servicing the generator. Make sure all guards and shields are replaced before using.
Step 2:
Carefully slide the
generator head onto the
shaft of the engine. Torque
the bolts from the manual
bag to 7.5 ft lbs.
After the bolts are tight,
use a wood block and
“dead-blow” hammer to tap
on the bearing support area
of the non-drive end
bracket (do not damage the
capacitor with hammer).
This will ensure the
bearing is properly seated.

Step 3:
Use the remaining bolt & nut
from the manual bag to secure
the non-drive end bracket.
Slide the head of the bolt into
the U-shaped slot on the
bottom of the non-drive end
bracket. Align the bottom of
the bolt with the existing
isolation bracket. Tighten nut
to secure the generator head.
