Only qualified electricians or contractors
should attempt such installations, which must
comply strictly with applicable codes, stan-
dards and regulations.

UNPACKING/INSPECTION

After unpacking, carefully inspect the contents for damage.
• This standby generator set is ready for installation with a
factory supplied and pre-mounted base pad and has a weather
protective enclosure that is intended for outdoor installation
only.
• This UL listed standby generator set is packaged with an
automatic transfer switch with built in load center.
• This UL listed, 2-pole transfer switch is rated at 50A
amperes at 250 volts maximum.

If this generator is used to power electrical load
circuits normally powered by a utility power
source, it is required by code to install a trans-
fer switch. The transfer switch must effectively
isolate the electrical system from the utility dis-
tribution system when the generator is operat-
ing (NEC 700, 701 & 702). Failure to isolate an
electrical system by such means will result in
damage to the generator and also may result in
injury or death to utility power workers due to
backfeed of electrical energy.
If any loss or damage is noted at time of delivery, have the
person(s) making the delivery note all damage on the freight bill
or affix their signature under the consignor's memo of loss or
damage.
If a loss or damage is noted after delivery, separate the damaged
materials and contact the carrier for claim procedures.
"Concealed damage" is understood to mean damage to the
contents of a package that is not in evidence at the time of
delivery, but is discovered later.
To properly open the roof, press down on the center top lip and
release the latch. If pressure is not applied from the top, the roof
may appear stuck. Always verify that the side lock is unlocked
before attempting to lift the roof.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Contact the local inspector or City Hall to be aware of all federal,
state and local codes that could impact the installation. Secure all
required permits before starting the job.
Carefully read and follow all of the procedures and safety
precautions detailed in the installation guide. If any portion of the
installation manual, technical manual or other factory-supplied
documents is not completely understood, contact a dealer for
assistance.
Fully comply with all relevant NEC, NFPA and OSHA standards
as well as all federal, state and local building and electric codes.
As with any generator, this unit must be installed in accordance
with current NFPA 37 and NFPA 70 standards as well as any other
federal, state, and local codes for minimum distances from other
structures.
