Installation Guide

1-2014 3. Step-By-Step Outline of Installation
A flexible fuel hose is packaged inside the generator set.
The section of flexible fuel hose supplied with the generator set must be used between the
engine's fuel system and fuel supply line to protect the fuel system from damage caused by
vibration, expansion and contraction. The fuel hose must be installed according to all applicable
codes and standards.
Connect it between the 3/4 NPT fitting on the generator set and the fuel supply line.

The factory installed, UL approved valve must be removed and an Australian Gas Association
(AGA) approved shutoff valve must be installed prior to generator set installation in Australia or
New Zealand. Adaptation from NPT to BSPT may be required, depending on the valve used.
The maximum amperage of the valve selected must be less than 1.0 amp at 12 VDC.
3.8.3 Natural Gas Fuel System
The generator set requires an adequate fuel supply to operate correctly at full load. The length
of the fuel supply pipe from the gas service entrance to the generator set must be known to
determine the correct fuel pipe size. Refer to the Natural Gas Pipe Capacity - Cubic Feet of Gas
Per Hour table, located within the Natural Gas Supply Line Size section of this manual to find
the fuel supply requirement for your generator set. The Pipe must be a minimum of schedule 40
subject to the authority having jurisdiction.
