INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of a Briggs & Stratton
Home Generator System (HGS).Your HGS was designed to
provide automatic auxiliary electrical power for the
duration of normal power interruption. It is not intended
for use as primary power in place of utility nor for use in
life-support applications.The generator unit has been
engineered and tested to exacting standards of
performance and reliability and is equipped with a UL®
listed Automatic Power Transfer Switch.
Briggs and Stratton has made every effort to provide for a
safe,streamlined and cost-effective installation. Because
each installation is unique, it is impossible to know of and
advise the trade of all conceivable procedures and methods
by which instarlation might be achieved. Neither could we
know of possible hazards and/or the results of each
method or procedure. For these reasons,
Only current qualified electrical and
plumbing contractors should attempt
HGS installations.
Installations must strictly comply with
all applicable codes, industry standards
and regulations.
Your Briggs & Stratton Home Generator System is supplied
with this "Owners ManuaP', a separate "Installation Manual"
(part number 190838) and aWarranty Sheet (part number
190881).These are important documents and should be
retained by the owner after the installation has been
completed.

OWNER ORIENTATION
This section provides Home Generator System owners
with the information necessary to achieve the most
satisfactory and cost effective installation possible.
The illustrations are for typical circumstances and are
meant to familiarize you with the installation options
available with your Home Generator System.A thorough
understanding of these options will provide fundamental
control over the cost of your installation, as well as ensure
your final satisfaction and security.
Local codes, appearance, noise levels,fuel types, and
distances are the factors that must be considered when
negotiating with an installation professional. Remember that
as the distance from the existing electrical service and
gaseous fuel supply increases, equal compensations in piping
and wiring materials must be allowed for.This is necessary
to comply with local codes and overcome electrical voltage
drops and gaseous fuel pressure drops.
The factors mentioned above will have a direct
affect on the overall price of your Home Generator
System installation.
