GENERATOR CARE

The generator head is a two pole, 3600 RPM, 60 Hz, brushless, revolving field and synchronous type with one sealed radial roller bearing. The rotor of the generator head is directly connected to the engine crankshaft and the stator is rigidly coupled to the engine casting via the generator head casting.

Exercising the Generator - The generator should be operated every four weeks. Warm the

unit up by starting the engine and letting it run for 10 to 15 minutes. This will dry out any moisture that has accumulated in the windings. If left, this moisture can cause corrosion in the winding. Frequent operation of the engine/generator will also ensure that the set is operating properly should it be needed in an emergency.

Generator Maintenance - The generator head is

brushless and maintenance free. Any major generator service, including the installation or replacement of parts, should be performed by a qualified electrical

service technician. USE ONLY FACTORY APPROVED REPAIR PARTS. Obtain factory parts from Customer Service at 1-800-270-0810.

A. Bearing - The bearing used in these generators is a heavy duty sealed roller bearing. They require no maintenance or lubrication.

B. Receptacles - Quality receptacles have been utilized. If a receptacle should become cracked or otherwise damaged, replace it. Using cracked or damaged receptacles can be both dangerous to the operator and destructive to the equipment.

WARNING, Stand-by Operation

If your generator is to be used as a standby electric power source in case of utility failure, it must be installed by a registered and licensed electrician and in compliance with all applicable state and local electrical codes. Also, local Fire Departments must be consulted concerning proper and safe handling procedures for gasoline. NEVER connect any generator to any existing electrical system without an isolating, UL approved transfer switch installed by a licensed electrician.
