Do not attempt to install the generator yourself.
Extremely high and dangerous electrical voltages
are present in utility power source lines and in
generator load leads when the unit is running.
Therefore, be sure to turn OFF all power voltage
supplies at their source before attempting to
complete electrical connections. Only qualified
installation contractors or electrician’s who are
familiar with applicable codes, standards, regulations
and procedures should install the system. Improper
or unauthorized installation, operation, or service of
this equipment is extremely hazardous and may
result in serious personal injury or death.
It is NOT intended that the information in this manual
be used by any unqualified persons for the purpose
of installing a standby electric power system. This
equipment must be installed, inspected, tested and
adjusted only by qualified personnel. These people
must be familiar with the equipment and installation
requirements.
The installation of this unit must comply with the
regulations of the United States National Electric
Code (NEC) as well as state and local codes and
Occupational Safety and Health Administration
(OSHA) established in the United States.
This equipment, when installed as part of a standby
electric power system, must be installed in
conjunction with an approved transfer switch. The
transfer switch serves to prevent both generator
and utility power from being connected to the load
circuits at the same time. A properly connected
transfer switch helps to prevent backfeed of
generator power into commercial lines while the
standby generator is operating.
This generator supplies extremely high and
dangerous power voltages. Any contact with high
voltage electrically "hot" components will result in
extremely hazardous, and possibly LETHAL,
electrical shock. Use care to avoid contact with live
terminals, bare connectors, bare wires, etc.
Disconnect all power before performing maintenance
or service.
Generator exhaust air contains carbon monoxide, a
deadly odorless, colorless and tasteless gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide causes severe nausea,
fainting or death. Install the generator set outdoors
only. Do not use exhaust air to heat a room. Do not
allow exhaust air to enter a building through
windows, doors, air intakes or other means. Avoid
breathing exhaust air while installing, operating or
servicing generator set. The engine exhaust from
this product contains chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other
reproductive harm.
Short circuits can cause bodily injury and/or
equipment damage. Do not contact electrical
connections with tools or jewelry, make sure
clothing and shoes are dry and stand on a dry
wooden platform while adjustments are made.
Remove wristwatch, rings, and jewelry that can
cause short circuits.
