Owner’s Manual Installation NOTE: PRIOR TO POWERING TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT MAKE SURE THE GENERATOR’S RATED VOLTAGE, WATTAGE AND AMPERAGE CAPACITY IS ADEQUATE TO SUPPLY ALL ELECTRICAL LOADS THAT THE UNIT WILL POWER. IF POWERING EXCEEDS THE GENERATOR’S CAPACITY, IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO GROUP ONE OR MORE OF THE TOOLS AND/OR EQUIPMENT FOR CONNECTION TO A SEPARATE GENERATOR. Electrical and other permits may be required for the installation of emergency power systems.
12000W/13000W Dual Fuel Generator Installation (cont’d) Supporting and Mounting Mount the generator on a concrete slab capable of supporting the weight of the generator. The slab must extend on all sides beyond the frame by at least one foot. Contact a cement contractor for slab specifications if necessary. Attach the frame to the concrete slab using 3/8” diameter expansion anchor bolts (not supplied).
Owner’s Manual Operation ADDING / CHECKING ENGINE FLUIDS AND FUEL DANGER! FILLING THE FUEL TANK WITH GASOLINE WHILE THE GENERATOR IS RUNNING CAN CAUSE GASOLINE TO LEAK AND COME IN CONTACT WITH HOT SURFACES THAT CAN IGNITE THE GASOLINE. Before starting the generator, always check: • Level of Engine oil • Level of gasoline in the fuel tank • Secured connection to an undamaged LPG tank Filling the Fuel Tank – Follow the steps below to fill the fuel tank: 1. Shut off the generator. 2.
12000W/13000W Dual Fuel Generator IF THERE IS A STRONG SMELL OF PROPANE WHILE OPERATING THE GENERATOR CLOSE THE VALVE ON THE PROPANE TANK IMMEDIATELY. ONCE THE PROPANE IS OFF, USE SOAPY WATER TO CHECK FOR LEAKS ON THE HOSE AND CONNECTIONS ON THE TANK VALVE AND THE GENERATOR. DO NOT SMOKE OR LIGHT A CIGARETTE OR CHECK FOR LEAKS USING ANY OPEN FLAME SOURCE SUCH AS A MATCH OR LIGHTER. IF A LEAK IS FOUND CONTACT QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN TO INSPECT AND REPAIR THE LPG SYSTEM BEFORE USING THE GENERATOR.
Owner’s Manual BEFORE STARTING THE GENERATOR Before attempting to start the generator, verify the following: The engine is filled with right and enough oil.
