GROUNDING THE GENERATOR
This generator should be grounded to help prevent
accidental electrical shock. Shown below is a picture of
the grounding lug supplied on your generator. First, drive
a 3/4" or 1" diameter copper pipe or rod into the ground
close to the generator set. The pipe must penetrate moist
earth. Using #10 gauge wire, connect one end of the wire
into the grounding lug. Next, connect the other end of the
wire to the copper pipe or rod using an approved ground
clamp.
