INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing this model of the standby generator set product line.

Every effort was expended to make sure that the information and instructions in this manual were both accurate and current at the time the manual was written. However, the manufacturer reserves the right to change, alter or otherwise improve this product(s) at any time without prior notice.

‹READ THIS MANUAL THOROUGHLY

If any portion of this manual is not understood, con- tact the nearest Authorized Service Dealer for start- ing, operating and servicing procedures.

Throughout this publication, and on tags and decals affixed to the generator, DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION and NOTE blocks are used to alert person- nel to special instructions about a particular service or operation that may be hazardous if performed incorrectly or carelessly. Observe them carefully. Their definitions are as follows:

DANGER

After this heading, read instructions that, if not strictly complied with, will result in personal injury or property damage.

After this heading, read instructions that, if not strictly complied with, may result in personal injury or property damage.

After this heading, read instructions that, if not strictly complied with, could result in damage to equipment and/or property.

NOTE:

After this heading, read explanatory statements that require special emphasis.

These safety warnings cannot eliminate the hazards that they indicate. Common sense and strict compli- ance with the special instructions while performing the service are essential to preventing accidents.

Four commonly used safety symbols accompany the DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION blocks. The type of information each indicates is as follows:

This symbol points out important safety infor- mation that, if not followed, could endanger personal safety and/or property of others.

Thishazard.symbol points out potential explosion

This symbol points out potential fire hazard.

Thishazard.symbol points out potential electrical shock

The operator is responsible for proper and safe use of the equipment. The manufacturer strongly recom- mends that the operator read this Owner's Manual and thoroughly understand all instructions before using this equipment. The manufacturer also strong- ly recommends instructing other users to properly start and operate the unit. This prepares them if they need to operate the equipment in an emergency.

‹OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

It is the operator's responsibility to perform all safety checks, to make sure that all maintenance for safe operation is performed promptly, and to have the equipment checked periodically by an Authorized Service Dealer. Normal maintenance service and replacement of parts are the responsibility of the owner/operator and, as such, are not considered defects in materials or workmanship within the terms of the warranty. Individual operating habits and usage contribute to the need for maintenance service.

Proper maintenance and care of the generator ensure a minimum number of problems and keep operating expenses at a minimum. See an Authorized Service Dealer for service aids and accessories.

Operating instructions presented in this manual assume that the standby electric system has been installed by an Authorized Service Dealer or other competent, qualified contractor. Installation of this equipment is not a “do-it-yourself” project.

‹HOW TO OBTAIN SERVICE

When the generator requires servicing or repairs, simply contact an Authorized Service Dealer for assistance. Service technicians are factory-trained and are capable of handling all service needs.

When contacting an Authorized Service Dealer or the factory about parts and service, always supply the complete model number of the unit as given on the front cover of this manual or on the DATA LABEL affixed to the unit.
