5. Installing the GenTent with Parallel Units

The GenTent for inverter generators has a design that will allow it to accommodate

running smaller 1-2K watt generators in parallel under one Canopy. The following is an

amendment to the standard instructions laid out previously in this manual. Read all the

standard setup instructions prior to attempting a parallel setup.

a. To install in parallel, you will need to turn

your generator 90 degrees so that the

Primary generator is perpendicular to the

Canopy.

b. You will strap the mounting assembly to

the lead generator (A), so the exhaust faces

out under the long side of the GenTent

offset to one side of the Canopy. (Fig 5.1)

c. You will need to build the extender arms

out as described in “Assemble the

Extender Arms” in an off-set design where

most of the Extender Arms are built out to

accommodate the companion generator protection. (Fig 5.1) This usually takes 2

Extender Arms on each of the short side corners and 6 on each of the long side

corners.

d. You have the Extender Arms in the desired 34”-36” L by 23”-25” W, you will place

the parallel generator (B) between the Extender Arms (Fig 5.1)

e. You can then Frame and Cover your GenTent as described in Sections

“3. Install the GenTent Frame” & “4. Cover the GenTent”
