*Natural gas rating will depend on specific fuel but typical derating of generator is between 10 to 20% off the LP gas rating.

2.With generator output supplying load, turn ON service disconnect or main distribution panel circuit breaker that supplies utility power to automatic transfer switch.

3.Automatic transfer switch will transfer loads back to utility power after five minute minimum run time and utility is restored.

4.Generator will run for approximately an additional minute for engine cool down, then shut down.

5.Install control panel access door and roof following instructions in “Removable Roof and Access Door” on page 12.

NOTE: If generator does not shut down after approximately 10 minutes, put AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to OFF and contact your local service center.

This completes the test procedures for automatic operation. The Home Standby Generator will now start automatically when utility power is lost and will supply power to the transfer switch.

Servicing the System

To service system:

AUTOMATIC OPERATION

To select automatic operation, do the following:

1.Set service disconnect or main distribution panel circuit breaker that sends utility voltage to transfer switch to ON.

2.Set generator’s main circuit breaker to ON position.

3.Set AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to AUTO.

Checking Automatic Operation

1.Remove roof by removing four screws and lifting off.

2.Remove screw at top of control panel access door.

3.Pull access door outward (away) from unit while pulling door upward and out of base. Door will come free of generator enclosure.

4.Set AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to OFF.

5.Set generator’s main circuit breaker to OFF position.

6.Pull service disconnect from disconnect box.

7.Remove 15A fuse from control panel.

To check the system for proper automatic operation, proceed as follows:

1.Turn OFF service disconnect or main distribution panel circuit breaker sending power to automatic transfer switch.

The generator will crank and start once the utility voltage drops out and the sensor has timed out. Let the system go through its entire automatic operation sequence.

FAULT DETECTION SYSTEM

The generator may have to run for long periods of time with no operator present. For that reason, the system is equipped with sensors that automatically shut down the generator in the event of potentially damaging conditions, such as low oil pressure, over speed, and other conditions.

A light on the remote LED plate is called the Diagnostic LED. The LED will turn on and off in a series of blinks if certain problems are detected in your Home Standby Generator. The blink pattern is repeated with a brief pause between each series. The number of blinks in the series indicates the detected fault, as listed on the mounting plate and as follows:
