YStop engine.

YDo not touch hot exhaust pipe, engine parts, or load bank/grid.

YKeep exhaust and pipe away from flammables.

1 Load Bank

Turn all load bank switches Off. If needed, connect load bank to 115 volts ac wall receptacle or genera- tor auxiliary power receptacle.

2 Welding Generator

Place A/V range switch in maxi- mum position, A/V control in mini- mum position, and Output Selector switch (if present) in either DC position.

3 Weld Cables

Connect load bank to generator weld output terminals using proper size weld cables with correct connectors. Observe correct polarity.

Start engine and run for several minutes.

Set load bank switches and then adjust generator A/V control so load equals rated generator output (see nameplate).

Check generator and load bank meters after first five minutes then every fifteen minutes to be sure generator is loaded properly.

.Check oil level frequently dur- ing run-in; add oil if needed.

After one hour (minimum) place A/V control in minimum position, then turn off load bank to remove load. Run engine several minutes at no load.

YStop engine and let cool.

4 Engine Exhaust Pipe

Repeat procedure if wetstacking is present.
