Read this manual and carefully follow all procedures and safety precautions to ensure proper equipment operation and to avoid bodily injury. Read and follow the Safety Precautions and Instructions section at the beginning of this manual. Keep this manual with the equipment for future reference.

The equipment service requirements are very important to safe and efficient operation. Inspect the parts often and perform required service at the prescribed intervals. Maintenance work must be performed by appropriately skilled and suitably trained maintenance personnel familiar with generator set operation and service.

The disk supplied with this generator set is a backup copy of the generator set personality program containing data specific to the engine and alternator. The engine and alternator data was preprogrammed in the controller at the factory and no further use of the disk should be necessary. Typically, your authorized distributor stores this disk for possible future use such as controller replacement or other circumstances requiring a backup.
