INTRODUCTION This Carrier model is a compact, high performance, air-cooled, engine-driven generator designed to automatically supply electrical power to operate critical loads during a utility power failure. This unit is factory installed in an all-weather, metal enclosure that is intended exclusively for outdoor installation. This generator will operate using either vapor withdrawn liquid propane (LP) or natural gas (NG).

ELECTRICAL HAZARDS FIRE HAZARDS • All generators covered by this manual produce dangerous electrical voltages and can cause fatal electrical shock. Utility power delivers extremely high and dangerous voltages to the transfer switch as well as the standby generator. Avoid contact with bare wires, terminals, connections, etc., on the generator as well as the transfer switch, if applicable. Ensure all appropriate covers, guards and barriers are in place before operating the generator.
Section 1 — Post Installation Start-up and Adjustments Carrier Air-cooled 7 kW, 12 kW and 15 kW Generators 1.1 BEFORE INITIAL START-UP Before starting, complete the following: 1. Set the generator’s main circuit breaker to its OFF (or open) position. 2. Set the generator's AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to the OFF position. 3. Turn OFF the utility power supply to the transfer switch using the means provided (such as the utility main line circuit breaker). 4.
Section 1 — Post Installation Start-up and Adjustments Carrier Air-cooled 7 kW, 12 kW and 15 kW Generators 1.4 GENERATOR TESTS UNDER LOAD To test the generator set with electrical loads applied, proceed as follows: 1. Set generator’s main circuit breaker to its OFF (or OPEN) position. 2. Turn OFF all loads connected to the transfer switch terminals T1 and T2. 3. Set the generator's AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to OFF. 4.
Section 1 — Post Installation Start-up and Adjustments Carrier Air-cooled 7 kW, 12 kW and 15 kW Generators 3. Turn on appliances, lights, pumps, etc., that are on the emergency circuits in an attempt to fully load the generator. Be cautious not to overload the generator. Use the following chart as a guide: Unit 7 kW 12 kW 13 kW 120 Volts 50.0 amps 100.0 amps 108.3 amps 240 Volts 25.0 amps 50.0 amps 54.1 amps 4. When full load has been achieved.
Section 1 — Post Installation Start-up and Adjustments Carrier Air-cooled 7 kW, 12 kW and 15 kW Generators 9. Reverse procedure steps 1-5 to reinstall demand regulator. 10. Reverse the procedure to convert back to natural gas. ◆ 1.7.2 12KW AND 15KW, V-TWIN ENGINES 14. It may be necessary to make minor adjustments to the preset adjustment screw settings to achieve maximum power, particularly at higher altitudes.
Section 1 — Post Installation Start-up and Adjustments Carrier Air-cooled 7 kW, 12 kW and 15 kW Generators 6. When frequency is correct at no load, check the AC voltage reading. If voltage is incorrect, the voltage regulator may require adjustment. ◆ 1.8.2 12 KW AND 15 KW UNITS 1. Loosen governor clamp bolt (See Figure 1.6). 2. Completely remove the idle spring. 3. With governor arm at wide open throttle position (rotated fully clockwise), rotate governor shaft fully clockwise.
Section 1 — Post Installation Start-up and Adjustments Carrier Air-cooled 7 kW, 12 kW and 15 kW Generators • Remove the four screws attaching the valve cover with a #2 or #3 phillips screwdriver. • Make sure the piston is at Top Dead Center (TDC) of its compression stroke (both valves closed). To get the piston at TDC, remove the intake screen at the front of the engine to gain access to the flywheel nut. Use a large socket and socket wrench to rotate the nut and hence the engine.
Section 2 — Troubleshooting Carrier Air-cooled 7 kW, 12 kW and 15 kW Generators 2.1 TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE PROBLEM CAUSE CORRECTION The engine will not crank. 1. Fuse blown. 1.
