area that will not accumulate deadly exhaust.

,l_The engine exhaust fumes contain carbon

monoxide, which can you cannot see or smell.

This poisonous gas, if breathed insufficient

concentrations, can cause unconsciousness or

even death.

Adequate, unobstructed flow of cooling and

ventilating air is critical to correct generator

operation. Do not alter the installation or permit

even partial blockage of ventilation provisions,

as this can seriously affect safe operation

of the generator. The generator MUST be

operated outdoors.

,l_This exhaust system must be properly

maintained. Do nothing that might render the

exhaust system unsafe or in noncompliance

with any local codes and/or standards.

,l_The manufacturer recommends installing

a battery operated carbon monoxide alarm

indoors, according to the manufacturers

instructions.

Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES.

Generator exhaust contains carbon monoxide. This is

apoison you cannot see or smell.

NEVER use insideahome

or garage, EVEN iF doors

and windows areopen,

Only use OUTSIDE and

far away from windows,

doors, and vents.

2.4.1 SYSTEMGROUND

Thegeneratorhas a system groundthat connectsthe generator

frame components to the ground terminals on the AC output

receptacles. Thesystem groundis bondedto theAC neutralwire

in the generatorcontrol panelvia a jumperwire.

SpecialRequirements

There may be Federalor State OccupationalSafety and Health

Administration(OSHA)regulations,localcodes,or ordinancesthat

applyto the intendeduse ofthe generator.

Pleaseconsult a qualified electrician, electricalinspector, or the

local agencyhavingjurisdiction:

*In some areas, generators are requiredto be registeredwith

local utilitycompanies.

*If the generatoris used at a construction site, there may be

additionalregulationswhich must be observed.

Connectingto aBuilding'sElectricalSystem

Connectionsfor standby power to a building's electricalsystem

must be made by a qualified electrician. The connection must

isolatethe generatorpower from utility power or otheralternative

power sources and must comply with all applicable laws and

electricalcodes.

2.4.2 GROUND/NG TIlE GENERATOR

The National Electrical Code requires that the

frame and external electrically conductive parts

of this generator be properly connected to an

approved earth ground.

Local electrical codes may also require proper grounding of

the unit (Figure6). Forthat purpose, connectinga No. 10 AWG

(AmericanWireGauge)strandedcopperwireto the groundinglug

and to an earth=drivencopperor brass groundingrod (electrode)

provides adequateprotection against electrical shock. However,

local codes may vary widely.Consultwith alocalelectricianfor

grounding requirements in the area.

Proper groundingof the generatorwill help preventelectrical

shockin theeventof a groundfault conditioninthe generatoror in

connectedelectricaldevices.Propergroundingalsohelpsdissipate

static electricity,which often buildsup in ungroundeddevices.

If service work is performed on the alternator,DO NOTdiscard

the white jumper wires from the terminal block to the alternator

ground, located on the rear bearing carrier. Always make sure

the wires are properlyconnectedbeforeusingthe generatorafter

alternatorservicework is done (Figure7).

Failure to reconnect these wires may create a

potential shock hazard when the generator is

OverloadtheGenerator

2.5 DON'TOVERLOADTHEGENERATOR

Overloadinga generatorin excess of its ratedwattage capacity

can result in damageto the generatorandto connectedelectrical

devices.Observethefollowing to preventoverloadingthe unit:

*Addupthetotal wattageofall electricaldevicesto be connected

at one time. This total should NOT be greater than the

generator'swattagecapacity.

*The ratedwattageof lights can betaken from light bulbs. The

ratedwattageof tools, appliancesand motors can usually be

foundon a datalabelor decalaffixedto the device.

*If the appliance,tool or motor does not give wattage,multiply

voltstimes ampereratingto determinewatts (voltsx amps =

watts).

*Some electric motors, such as induction types, require about

threetimes morewatts of powerfor startingthan for running.

This surge of power lasts only a few seconds when starting

suchmotors. Makesureto allowfor high startingwattagewhen

selectingelectricaldevicesto connectto the generator:

1. Figurethe watts neededto start the largestmotor.

2. Add to that figure the running watts of all other connected

loads.

TheWattageReferenceGuideis providedto assist in determining

how many itemsthegeneratorcan operateatonetime.

NOTE:

All figuresare approximate.See datalabel onappliancefor
