OVERCRANK SHUTDOWN
1. Check the fuel level in the tank.
2. Check for proper operation of the fuel pump.
3. Check the air filter for blockage.
4. If the engine will not start, consult the engine operator’s manual for additional information on trouble-
shooting starting problems.
OVERSPEED OR UNDERSPEED SHUTDOWN
1. Disconnect all loads and restart the generator. Read the frequency (Hz) on the LCD display. With no
loads on the generator, the frequency should read 60.0 Hz.
2. If the frequency is above or below 60.0 Hz, the engine speed will have to be adjusted. Refer to the engine
operator’s manual for throttle adjustments on mechanically governed units and refer to the electronic
governor manual for electronically controlled units.
GENERATOR OUTPUT CONNECTION LUGS
The generator is equipped with connection lugs behind the lug box door located on the lower portion of the control
box. The lugs provide connection points for attachment of external loads to the generator. A large decal on the inside
of the connection lug door details the proper connections for selected voltages.
WARNING
It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that only a trained and licensed electrician perform any
wiring and related connections to the generator. Installation should be in compliance
with the National Electrical Code (NEC) as well as any local or state guidelines as
required by law. Failure to follow proper installation requirements may result in
equipment or property damage, personal injury, or death.
WARNING
Before any connections are made to the generator, make sure that the main circuit
breaker and control power switch are in the “OFF/O” position. Potentially lethal
voltages may be present at the generator connection lugs.
IMPROPER OR INCORRECT CONNECTIONS TO A BUILDING’S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
CAN CAUSE POTENTIALLY LETHAL VOLTAGES TO BACKFEED INTO UTILITY LINES.
THIS MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR ELECTROCUTION TO UTILITY WORKERS NEARBY.
MAKE SURE THE GENERATOR IS SUPPLYING POWER TO AN ISOLATED OBJECT
OR BUILDING THAT IS NOT CONNECTED TO ANY UTILITY LINES.
Connections to the lugs should be made by running the power cables up through the slot in the bottom of the box.
Use a hex-wrench to tighten the cable connections. The connection lug door is equipped with safety interlock switches
that will trip the main circuit breaker and disable the voltage regulator if the door is opened while the unit is operating.
WARNING
Never attempt to disable or modify the lug door safety switches. Equipment damage,
personal injury or death may result.
A ground connection is located next to the connection lugs. The unit MUST HAVE this ground lug connected to a
good earthen ground for proper operating safety. The generator neutral is bonded to ground when it is shipped from
the factory. The bonding plate will need to be removed when the generator is used as a standby power source.
INSTALLATION SHOULD BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE (NEC), AS WELL
AS ANY STATE OR LOCAL GUIDELINES OR CODES.
