Appendix B
15. With the generator carrying the entire load, recheck gas
pressure to verify that it's at the same level it was before the
generator was started. It should have not changed more than
1" of water column from the original pressure measurement.
Even if the generator is running smoothly at this
point, a drop in gas pressure indicates that the
supply is barely adequate to supply the generator's
needs. Changes in the generator load, or additional
gas demand by other appliances may affect the
generator's performance. Verify gas pressure and
pipe sizing. Unhook the manometer and reinstall the
port plug.
16. Switch the utility breaker ON to restore utility power to the
home.
17. The generator will continue to run to allow the engine to cool
down, then shut itself off.
18. Shut OFF utility power again. The generator should start and
the entire priority load should transfer to the generator.
19. Close the main breaker to restore utility power and allow the
engine to cool down and shut itself off.
Operational tests are now complete. Refer to Appendix B
– Setting the Automatic Exercise Function to complete the
installation.

the escape key to access the main menu.
3. Press the left or right arrow key until 'Edit' is flashing and press
enter.
4. Press the right or left arrow key until the exercise time is
displayed and press enter.
5. Using the arrow and enter keys first set the exercise hour in
24 hour format, followed by the minute, and finally the day.

time. Be sure to show the owners how to set the exercise
function for the day and time they want the unit to exercise.
