installation

Outdoor Installation

If possible install the generator in a area that is free of debris, bystanders, and overhead obstructions. Make sure the generator is on secure level ground so that it cannot slide or shift around.

The installation site must be relatively free from moisture and dust. All electrical equipment should be protected from excessive moisture. Failure to do will result in deterioration of the insulation and will result in short circuits and grounding.

Foreign materials such as dust, sand, lint and abrasive materials have a tendency to cause excessive wear to engine and alternator parts.

WARNING

Pay close attention to ventilation when operating the generator inside tunnels and caves. The engine exhaust contains noxious elements. Engine exhaust must be routed to a ventilated area

Indoor Installation

Exhaust gases from gas engines are extremely poisonous. Whenever an engine is installed indoors the exhaust fumes must be vented to the outside. The engine should be installed at least two feet from any outside wall. Using an exhaust pipe which is too long or too small can cause excessive back pressure which will cause the engine to heat excessively and possibly burn the valves.

placement

The generator should always be placed on a flat level surface when it is running. DO NOT place the generator on slopes, the possibility exists that the generator could slide.

DANGER

An electric shock is apt to happen when vibrators are used. Pay close attention to handling when operating vibrators and always use rubber boots and gloves to insulate the body from a short circuit.

Generator Grounding

To guard against electrical shock and possible damage to the equipment, it is important to provide a good EARTH ground.

Article 250 (Grounding) of the National Electrical Code (NEC) provides guide lines for proper grounding and specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

NEC articles 250-64(b) and 250-66 set the following grounding requirements:

1.Use one of the following wire types to connect the generator to earth ground.

a.Copper - 10 AWG (5.3 mm2) or larger.

b.Aluminum - 8 AWG (8.4 mm2) or larger.

2.When grounding the generator (Figure 2) connect the ground cable between the lock washer and the nut on the generator and tighten the nut fully. Connect the other end of the ground cable to earth ground.

3.NEC article 250-52(c) specifies that the earth ground rod should be buried a minimum of 8 ft. into the ground.

NOTICE

When connecting the generator to any buildings electrical system ALWAYS consult with a licensed electrician.
