2.2OPTIONAL REMOTE

START/STOP PANEL

A remote mounted Start/Stop Panel (Figure 2.2) is available that allows starting and stopping the gen- erator engine conveniently from inside the vehicle. The remote panel includes a Start/Stop switch, hour- meter, generator run lamp, a fuel prime switch, and a wire harness.

2.4BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE

NOTE:

Instructions and information in this manual assume the generator has been properly installed, connected, serviced, tested and adjusted by a qualified installation technician or installation contractor.

2.3AUTOMATIC CHOKE

This engine is equipped with an automatic choke that consists of two main components: a choke solenoid and prechoke.

‹2.3.1 CHOKE SOLENOID

During engine cranking (Start/Stop switch at START),

asolid-state choke module signals the choke sole- noid to activate and cycle (choke on/choke off) until the engine starts. The choke solenoid thus opens and closes the carburetor choke valve only when the engine is cranking. When the engine starts, the choke stops cycling.

‹2.4.1 INSTALLATION

Generator installation must have been properly com- pleted so it complies with all applicable codes, stan- dards and regulations and with the manufacturer's recommendations.

‹2.4.2 ENGINE LUBRICATION

Have the engine crankcase properly serviced with the recommended oil before starting. Refer to Section

1.6.3and Sections 3.1 and 3.2 for oil servicing pro- cedures and recommendations.

Any attempt to crank or start the engine before it has been properly serviced it with the recom- mended oil may result in an engine failure.

‹2.4.3 FUEL SUPPLY

The engine must have an adequate supply of proper fuel to operate. Before starting it, check that suffi- cient fuel is available.

NOTE:

Depending on the installation, the generator may have either a separate fuel tank, or it may “share” the vehicle engine’s fuel tank.

‹2.3.2 PRECHOKE

The choke system also has a temperature-sensitive metal strip that adjusts choke valve angle according to ambient temperatures (i.e., in cold ambient tem- peratures, choke valve closes more). Once the engine starts, an element heats the temperature-sensitive strip to a normal operating condition, opening the choke valve. This may take about three minutes in cooler weather.

‹2.4.4 COOLING AND VENTILATING AIR

Air inlet and outlet openings in the generator com- partment must be open and unobstructed for con- tinued proper operation. Without sufficient cooling and ventilating airflow, the engine/generator quickly overheats, which causes it to shut down and may damage the generator.

‹2.4.5 ENGINE EXHAUST GAS

Before starting the generator engine, be sure there is no way for exhaust gases to enter the vehicle interior and endanger people or animals. Close windows, doors and other openings in the vehicle that, if open, might permit exhaust gases to enter the vehicle.

The combination of HEPA and activated carbon makes these models effective for comprehensive air purification.

These models also integrate smart technology, offering user-friendly controls that simplify operation. Many units are equipped with filter change indicators, ensuring users are alerted when it’s time to replace the filters. This promotes optimal air quality and prolongs the efficiency of the machines.

The Guardian Technologies models have a compact and modern design, allowing them to fit seamlessly into any home or office decor. Their lightweight design facilitates easy mobility, enabling users to place them in various locations as needed.

Energy efficiency is another significant characteristic featured in these air purifiers. Many of the models are ENERGY STAR certified, which means they meet strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. This not only helps reduce electricity costs but also makes these purifiers an environmentally friendly choice.

Noise levels are kept to a minimum with these units, ensuring they operate quietly without disrupting daily activities such as work, sleep, or family time. This is particularly important in shared living spaces, where background noise can be a concern.

Overall, Guardian Technologies presents an impressive lineup of air purifiers through models 004702-0, 004703-0, 004704-0, 004705-0, 004706-0, and 004707-0. Their combination of advanced filtration, smart technology, energy efficiency, and stylish design positions them as excellent options for anyone looking to improve their indoor air quality. Whether in a home or office, these models contribute significantly to a healthier living environment, making them a worthy investment for consumers seeking enhanced air purification solutions.
