Section 1 Product Safety Information Safety Notice Be sure that you are completely familiar with the safe operation of this equipment. This equipment may be connected to other machines that have rotating parts or parts that are controlled by this equipment. Improper use can cause serious or fatal injury. Always disconnect all electrical loads before starting the generator. Installation and repair procedures require specialized skills with electrical generating equipment and liquid cooled engine systems.
Precaution Statements Used In This Manual There are three classifications of precautionary statements used in this manual. The most critical is a WARNING statement, then the Caution statement and the least critical is the Note statement. The usage of each statement is as follows: WARNING: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in injury or death. Caution: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in damage to property.
Operation Warning Statements Continued WARNING: Be sure that you understand how to stop the engine quickly in case of an emergency situation. Become familiar with the controls and safety systems provided with this generator set. WARNING: Always wear safety glasses with side shields and hearing protection when working near the generator. WARNING: Improper operation may cause violent motion of connected equipment. Be certain that unexpected movement will not cause injury to personnel or damage to equipment.
Warning Statements Continued Burn WARNING: Parts of this generator are extremely hot during and after operation. To prevent severe burns, do not touch any part of the generator until you have first determined if the part is hot. Wear protective clothing and after use allow sufficient time for parts to cool before touching any part of the generator. WARNING: Do not touch the hot exhaust parts or the high voltage spark plug or coil terminals of the engine.
Warning Statements Continued Maintenance WARNING: Before cleaning, inspecting, repairing, refueling or performing any maintenance to the generator set, always be sure the engine has stopped and that all rotating parts have also stopped. After stopping, certain components are still extremely hot so be careful not to get burned. Before servicing the generator set, be sure to disconnect the spark plug wires and the battery terminals to prevent accidental engine rotation or starting.
Caution Statements Caution: The brass connecting tab on some 120VAC duplex receptacles have been removed. Each receptacle is powered by a separate generator winding. When replacing a receptacle, inspect the brass tab that normally links both receptacles. If it is removed, be sure to remove the brass tab from the replacement receptacle before it is installed. Failure to remove the tab will cause a direct short to the generator windings and cause possible generator damage.
Section 2 General Information This manual contains information you need to safely and efficiently operate your generator set. During the preparation of this manual every effort was made to ensure the accuracy of its contents. This manual describes only very basic engine information. A separate owner’s manual for the engine is supplied with this unit for your use. Please refer to the engine manual for information relative to engine operation, maintenance, recommendations and additional safety warnings.

Section 3 Receiving & Installation Receiving & Inspection When you receive your generator, there are several things you should do immediately. 1. 2. 3. Observe the condition of the shipping container and report any damage immediately to the commercial carrier that delivered your system. Verify that the part number of the system you received is the same as the part number listed on your purchase order.
Physical Location The mounting location of the system is important. It should be installed in an area that is protected from direct harmful gases or liquids, dust, metallic particles, shock and vibration. It can only be installed in an outdoor location so the exhaust fumes are vented to the atmosphere. This system must never be installed inside an enclosed building, home, shop or garage etc. Several other factors should be carefully evaluated when selecting a location for installation: 1.

Section 4 Operation Operator Control Panel Each operator panel is slightly different, depending on features of the generator you purchased. The Operator Control Panel of Figure 4-1 is shown because it has most of the available features. This will be used to explain how the controls operate. Figure 4-1 Operator Control Panel Auto Idler Off – The engine will run continuously at the predetermined speed set by the governor. ON – Allows the engine to run at slow speed when there is no electrical load.
Pre–Start Checks Before the engine is started, several things must first be checked. 1. Place the generator set in an open, dry, well ventilated and reasonably level location. 2. If grounding is required for your application, check to make sure your unit is grounded properly (see Section3). 3. Check the engine’s oil level and add oil if necessary to bring it to the level recommended by the engine manufacturer. 4. Check the fuel level and add fuel to within 1/2 inch of the fill tube if necessary. 5.
Section 5 Troubleshooting and Maintenance Maintenance MN2410 This manual contains only very minimal engine maintenance instructions. Refer to the engine manufacturer’s owner’s manual for specific engine maintenance instructions for your generator set. Any maintenance instructions or recommendations in the engine owner’s manual take precedence over any of the following general recommendations. General: 1. Inspect the fuel system for leaks. Replace all defective components immediately. 2.
