NOTE: Improper installation can damage your electrical system and cause property damage, serious personal injury or death. Installation MUST be performed by a licensed electrician and plumber, or gas technician. Installation MUST comply with all applicable building and electrical codes.

Some areas may require building permits and/or detailed sight inspections prior to approving the

unit for operation.

NOTE: The important safety instructions appearing in this manual are not meant to cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood that common sense, caution, and care are factors which are not built into a generator, but are supplied by the person(s) installing, maintaining, and operating it.

WARNING:

Do not attempt to install the generator yourself. Extremely high and dangerous electrical voltages are present in utility power source lines and in generator load leads when the unit is running. Therefore, be sure to turn OFF all power voltage supplies at their source before attempting to complete electrical connections. Only qualified installation contractors or electrician’s who are familiar with applicable codes, standards, regulations and procedures should install the system. Improper or unauthorized installation, operation, or service of this equipment is extremely hazardous and may result in serious personal injury or death.

It is NOT intended that the information in this manual be used by any unqualified persons for the purpose of installing a standby electric power system. This equipment must be installed, inspected, tested and adjusted only by qualified personnel. These people must be familiar with the equipment and installation requirements.

The installation of this unit must comply with the regulations of the United States National Electric Code (NEC) as well as state and local codes and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) established in the United States.

This equipment, when installed as part of a standby electric power system, must be installed in conjunction with an approved transfer switch. The transfer switch serves to prevent both generator and utility power from being connected to the load

circuits at the same time. A properly connected transfer switch helps to prevent backfeed of generator power into commercial lines while the standby generator is operating.

This generator supplies extremely high and dangerous power voltages. Any contact with high voltage electrically "hot" components will result in extremely hazardous, and possibly LETHAL, electrical shock. Use care to avoid contact with live terminals, bare connectors, bare wires, etc. Disconnect all power before performing maintenance or service.

Generator exhaust air contains carbon monoxide, a deadly odorless, colorless and tasteless gas. Breathing carbon monoxide causes severe nausea, fainting or death. Install the generator set outdoors only. Do not use exhaust air to heat a room. Do not allow exhaust air to enter a building through windows, doors, air intakes or other means. Avoid breathing exhaust air while installing, operating or servicing generator set. The engine exhaust from this product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

Short circuits can cause bodily injury and/or equipment damage. Do not contact electrical connections with tools or jewelry, make sure clothing and shoes are dry and stand on a dry wooden platform while adjustments are made. Remove wristwatch, rings, and jewelry that can cause short circuits.
