Owner's Manual
Installation
Note: Prior to powering tools and equipment, make sure the generator's rated voltage,
wattage, and amperage capacity (120-240VAC @ 41.6/20.8AMPs) 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.
Investigate your local building and electrical codes before installing this unit. Installation must be
completed by licensed contractors.
WARNING! THE GENERATOR WEIGHS APPROXIMATELY 225 POUNDS. USE CARE
WHEN LIFTING. ENSURE USE OF THE PROPER HOISTING OR LIFTING EQUIPMENT
WHEN MOVING IT TO THE INSTALLATION LOCATION. ALWAYS CONNECT LIFTING
LINES TO THE FRAME OF THE GENERATOR.
General Location
• Make sure to locate and install the generator outdoors where air for cooling is readily available.
• Install the generator so that the air inlets and outlets are not blocked by obstructions such as
bushes, trees, or snow drifts. Locating it in the path of heavy winds or snowdrifts may require
the placement behind a barrier for protection. In normal weather conditions, the air vent should
face the prevailing wind direction.
• Install the generator on a raised concrete slab or other area where rain drainage or flood waters
cannot reach it.
• Consider maintenance requirements when installing. Generator placement should allow for four
feet of access to all sides of the unit for maintenance purposes.
• Place the generator as close as possible to the electrical tools and equipment being powered to
limit the need for and reduce the length of extension cords.
• If the generator is located indoors, the engine exhaust must be ventilated to the outdoors using
leak-proof, heat resistant, and flexible tubing.
