INSTALLATION
3.Connect an accurate frequency meter to the line side of the generator’s main circuit breaker.
4.Ensure that the 15 Amp fuse is installed.
5.Set the generator’s main circuit breaker ON.
6.Set the generator’s system switch to AUTO.
7.Push MANUAL
8A. For a 12kW generator, normal no load frequency is 62.0 to 62.5 Hz. If adjustment is needed at no load, slowly rotate the governor adjustment nut (Figure 15) clockwise and/or counterclockwise until frequency is 62.0 to 62.5 Hz.

9.Push and hold MANUAL
10.Turn the service disconnect to the transfer switch off. After a short time delay, the transfer switch will connect to the generator.
11.Load generator to full load.
12.Connect an accurate frequency meter to the load side of the generator’s main circuit breaker. Frequency should be above 57.0 Hz.
13.If frequency is below 57.0 Hz, slowly rotate the governor adjustment nut or screw clockwise and/or counterclockwise until frequency is above 57.0 Hz.
14.Turn the service disconnect to the transfer switch on. The transfer switch will connect to the utility after five minutes.
15.After the engine has stopped running,
•If an adjustment was made in step 13, repeat steps 3 through 9.
•If an adjustment was not made in step 13, proceed to step 16.
IMPORTANT: If the no load frequency falls out of the no load parameter after full load adjustment is made, contact an authorized service center.
16.Reinstall the circuit breaker cover to the air intake guard.
17.Close the oil drain and control panel access doors.
