1.1 INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing this compact, high performance, air-cooled, engine-driven generator. It is 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either vapor withdrawn liquid propane (LP) or natural gas (NG).
NOTE:
When sized properly, this generator is suitable for supplying typical residential loads such as Induction Motors (sump pumps, refrigerators,
air conditioners, furnaces, etc.), Electronic Components (computer, monitor, TV, etc.), Lighting Loads and Microwaves.
