Owner’s Manual for Portable Generator 1

Section 1 Introduction and Safety

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a Generac Power

Systems Inc. product. This unit has been

designed to provide high-performance, effi-

cient operation, and years of use when main-

tained properly.

If any section of the manual is not understood,

contact your nearest Independent Authorized

Service Dealer (IASD), or contact Generac

Customer Service at 1-888-GENERAC (1-

888-436-3722), or www.generac.com with any

questions or concerns.

The owner is responsible for proper mainte-

nance and safe use of the equipment. Before

operating, servicing or storing this generator:

• Study all warnings in this manual and on

the product carefully.

• Become familiar with this manual and the

unit before use.

• Refer to the Assembly section of the man-

ual for instructions on final assembly proce-

dures. Follow the instructions completely.

Save these instructions for future reference.

ALWAYS supply this manual to any individual

that will use this machine.

The information in this manual is accurate

based on products produced at the time of

publication. The manufacturer reserves the

right to make technical updates, corrections,

and product revisions at any time without

notice.

Safety Rules

The manufacturer cannot anticipate every

possible circumstance that might involve a

hazard. The alerts in this manual, and on tags

and decals affixed to the unit, are not all inclu-

sive. If using a procedure, work method, or

operating technique that the manufacturer

does not specifically recommend, verify that it

is safe for others and does not render the

equipment unsafe.

Throughout this publication, and on tags and

decals affixed to the unit, DANGER, WARN-

ING, CAUTION, and NOTE blocks are used to

alert personnel to special instructions about a

particular operation that may be hazardous if

performed incorrectly or carelessly. Observe

them carefully. Alert definitions are as follows:

NOTE: Notes contain additional information

important to a procedure and will be found

within the regular text of this manual.

These safety alerts cannot eliminate the haz-

ards that they indicate. Common sense and

strict compliance with the special instructions

while performing the action or service are

essential to preventing accidents.

Safety Symbols and Meanings

• If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after

the generator has been running, move to

fresh air IMMEDIATELY. See a doctor, as

you could have carbon monoxide poison-

ing.

(000100a)

WARNING

Consult Manual. Read and understand manual

completely before using product. Failure to

completely understand manual and product

could result in death or serious injury.

(000001)

DANGER

could result in death or serious injury.

(000003)

CAUTION

Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

could result in minor or moderate injury.

000657

DANGER

Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES.

Generator exhaust contains carbon monoxide. This is

a poison you cannot see or smell.

NEVER use inside a home

or garage, EVEN IF doors

and windows are open.

Only use OUTSIDE and

far away from windows,

doors, and vents.

(000103)

monoxide, a colorless, odorless, poisonous gas.

Carbon monoxide, if not avoided,

will result in death or serious injury.

(000179a)

DANGER

The exhaust system must be properly maintained. Do

not alter or modify the exhaust system as to render it

unsafe or make it noncompliant with local codes and/or

standards. Failure to do so will result in death

or serious injury.

2 Owner’s Manual for Portable Generator

• For safety reasons, it is recommended that

the maintenance of this equipment be per-

formed by an IASD. Inspect the generator

regularly, and contact the nearest IASD for

parts needing repair or replacement.

Exhaust and Location Hazards

• If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after

the generator has been running, move to

fresh air IMMEDIATELY. See a doctor, as

you could have carbon monoxide poison-

ing.

Owner’s Manual for Portable Generator 3

• The National Electric Code (NEC) requires

the frame and external electrically conduc-

tive parts of the generator be properly con-

nected to an approved earth ground. Local

electrical codes may also require proper

grounding of the generator. Consult with a

local electrician for grounding requirements

in the area.

Fire Hazards

• Do not operate the generator if connected

electrical devices overheat, if electrical out-

put is lost, if engine or generator sparks or if

flames or smoke are observed while unit is

running.

• Keep a fire extinguisher near the generator

at all times.

Connection Plugs

220 Volt Universal Receptacle

The 120 Volt outlet is overload protected by a

20 Amp circuit breaker. See Figure 2-10. Each

receptacle will power 120 Volt AC, single

phase, 60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to

2400 watts (2.4 kW) or 20 Amps of current.

Use only high quality, well-insulated, 3-wire

grounded cord sets rated for 125 Volts at 20

Amps (or greater).

Figure 2-10. 220 Volt Universal Receptacle

120/240 VAC, 20 Amp Receptacle

Use a NEMA L14-20 plug with this receptacle

(rotate to lock/unlock). Connect a suitable 4-

wire grounded cord set to plug and desired

load. The cord set should be rated 250 Volts

AC at 20 Amps (or greater). See Figure 2-11.

Use this receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, 60

Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 3600

watts (3.6 kW) of power at 20 Amps or 240

Volt AC, 60 Hz, single phase loads. The outlet

is protected by a 30 Amp 2-pole toggle switch

circuit breaker.
