It is used to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that follow this symbol to avoid possible injury or death. Generac Portable Products 3,500 Watt Generator EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION SAFETY RULES This generator set was designed and manufactured for specific applications. Do Not attempt to modify the unit or use it for any application it was not designed for. If you have any questions about your generator’s application, ask your dealer/distributor or consult the factory. This generator is an engine-driven, revolving field, alternating current (AC) generator. It was designed to supply electrical power for operating compatible electrical lighting, appliances, tools and motor loads. This manual contains information for a generator that operates 120 and/or 240 Volt, single phase, 60 Hz devices that require up to 3,500 watts (3.5 kW) of power that pull up to 29.2 Amps at 120 Volts or 14.6 Amps at 240 Volts. The manufacturer could not possibly anticipate every circumstance that might involve a hazard. For that reason warnings in the manual and warnings on tags or decals affixed to the unit are not all–inclusive. If you intend to handle, operate or service the unit by a procedure or method not specifically recommended by the manufacturer, first make sure that such a procedure or method will not render this equipment unsafe or pose a threat to you and others. CAUTION! Do Not exceed the generator’s wattage/amperage capacity. Add up the rated watts of all devices you are connecting to generator receptacles at one time. This total should not be greater than 3,500 watts. In most cases rated watts of the electrical device can be found on the device nameplate. If the device nameplate gives only volts and amps, multiply volts times amps to obtain watts (volts X amps = watts). The 3,500 watt generator has the following features: Read this manual carefully and become familiar with your generator set. Know its applications, its limitations and any hazards involved. WARNING: The engine exhaust from this product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. • 120/240 Volt, 20 Amp locking type receptacle and a 120 Volt, 30 Amp locking type receptacle. • 120 Volt, 15 Amp receptacles. DANGER! You must isolate the generator from • Low Oil Shutdown: Automatically shuts down the engine if oil drops below safe operation level. the electric utility by opening the electrical system’s main circuit breaker or main switch if this unit is used for backup power. Failure to isolate the generator from the power utility may result in injury or death to electric utility workers and damage to the generator due to a backfeed of electrical energy. Whenever unit is providing backup power, the electric utility must be notified. • Four gallon overhead fuel tank with fuel gauge. • The generator’s revolving field is driven at about 3,600 rpm by a Generac Power Systems 6.5 h.p. engine. WARNING! Do Not tamper with engine governed speed. High operating speeds are dangerous and increase risk of personal injury or damage to equipment. The generator supplies correct rated frequency and voltage only when running at proper governed speed. Incorrect frequency and/or voltage can damage some connected electrical loads. Operating at excessively low speeds imposes a heavy load. When adequate engine power is not available engine life may be shortened. DANGER! Generator exhaust gases contain DEADLY carbon monoxide gas. Carbon monoxide, if breathed in sufficient concentrations, can cause unconsciousness or death. Operate this equipment outdoors where adequate ventilation is available. The Emission Control System for this generator is warranted for standards set by the Environmental Protection Agency. For warranty information refer to the engine owner’s manual. 2 Generac Portable Products 3,500 Watt Generator • The generator produces a very powerful voltage that can cause serious injury or death by electrocution. Never touch bare wires or receptacles. Never permit a child or any unqualified person to operate the generator. • Never operate the generator: in rain; in any enclosed compartment; when connected electrical devices overheat; if electrical output is lost; if engine or generator sparks; if flame or smoke is observed while unit is running; if unit vibrates excessively. • Never handle any kind of electrical cord or device while standing in water, while barefoot or while hands or feet are wet. Death or serious injury from electrocution may result. GROUNDING THE GENERATOR • Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in any damp or highly conductive area (such as metal decking or steel work). 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. For that purpose, a GROUNDING WING NUT is provided on the generator end (Figure 1). • Never use worn, bare, frayed or otherwise damaged electrical cords with the generator. Death, serious injury and property damage from electrical shock may result. • Gasoline is highly FLAMMABLE and its vapors are EXPLOSIVE. Never allow smoking, open flames, sparks or heat in the vicinity while handling gasoline. Avoid spilling gasoline on a hot engine. Comply with all laws regulating storage and handling of gasoline. • Do Not overfill the fuel tank. Always allow room for fuel expansion. If tank is overfilled, fuel can overflow onto a hot engine and cause a FIRE or an EXPLOSION. • Never store a generator with fuel in the tank where gasoline vapors might reach an open flame, spark or pilot light (as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer). FIRE or an EXPLOSION may result. • The unit requires an adequate flow of cooling air for its continued proper operation. Never operate the unit inside any room or enclosure where the free flow of cooling air into and out of the unit might be obstructed. Allow at least 2 feet of clearance on all sides of generator, even while operating unit outdoors, or you could damage the unit. • Never start, or stop the unit with electrical loads connected to receptacles with the connected devices turned ON. Start the engine and let it stabilize before connecting any electrical loads. Disconnect all electrical loads before shutting down the generator. • Do Not insert any object through cooling slots of the engine. You could damage the unit or injure yourself. Figure 1 — Grounding Wing Nut Grounding Wing Nut Generally, connecting a No. 12 AWG (American Wire Gauge) stranded copper wire to the grounding wing nut and to an earth-driven copper or brass grounding rod (electrode) provides adequate protection against electrical shock. Be careful to keep the grounding wire attached after connecting the stranded copper wire. However, local codes may vary widely. Consult with a local electrician for grounding requirements in your area. Properly grounding the generator helps prevent electrical shock if a ground fault condition exists in the generator or in connected electrical devices. Proper grounding also helps dissipate static electricity, which often builds up in ungrounded devices. 3 Generac Portable Products 3,500 Watt Generator KNOW YOUR GENERATOR Read this owner’s manual and safety rules before operating your generator.

Do Not use premium gasoline. Do Not mix oil with gasoline. • Clean area around fuel fill cap, remove cap. Add Oil • Add unleaded regular gasoline, slowly to fuel tank. Be careful not to overfill. Allow about 1/2" of tank space for fuel expansion (Figure 2). WARNING! Any attempt to crank or start the engine before it has been properly filled with the recommended oil may result in an engine failure. Figure 2 — Fill Tank with Fuel To fill your engine with oil: • Place generator on a level surface. • Clean area around oil fill and remove oil fill cap. • Select the oil's viscosity grade and fill engine with oil following the instructions given in the engine owner’s manual. Do Not overfill! • Install oil fill cap. NOTE: The generator’s revolving field rides on a prelubricated and sealed ball bearing that requires no additional lubrication for the life of the bearing. • Install fuel cap and wipe up any spilled gasoline. IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Also, experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. Add Gasoline DANGER! Explosion Hazard! Never fill fuel tank indoors. Never fill fuel tank when engine is running or hot. Do Not light a cigarette or smoke when filling the fuel tank. WARNING! Do Not overfill the fuel tank. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. See “Storage” on page 11. Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur. Always allow room for fuel expansion. 5 Generac Portable Products 3,500 Watt Generator OPERATING THE GENERATOR 6. • If engine fails to start, repeat steps 4 thru 6. 7. CAUTION! Never start or stop, the engine with electrical loads connected to the unit and with the connected devices turned ON. Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator. Use the following start instruction steps by numerical order: Make sure the Idle Control switch is in “Off” position. 2. Turn the fuel valve to the “On” position. 3. Set the Run/Stop switch to “Run” position (Figure 3). Move choke lever to “Run” position. If engine falters, move choke lever to “Half ” choke position until the engine runs smoothly and then to “Run” position.

Add up the rated watts (or amps) of all loads to be connected at one time. This total should not be greater than the rated wattage/amperage capacity of the generator. See “Don’t Overload the Generator” on page 10. Grasp the recoil handle and pull slowly until slight resistance is felt. Then pull rapidly one time only to start engine. • If engine starts, proceed to step 7. • If engine fails to start, proceed to step 6. 6 Generac Portable Products 3,500 Watt Generator To recharge 12 Volt batteries, proceed as follows: • Check fluid level in all battery cells. If necessary, add ONLY distilled water to cover separators in battery cells. Do Not use tap water. Stopping the Engine • Unplug all electrical loads from generator panel receptacles. Never start or stop engine with electrical devices plugged in and turned on. • If the battery is equipped with vent caps, make sure they are installed and are tight. • Put the idle control switch in the “Off” position. • Let engine run at no-load for 30 seconds to stabilize the internal temperatures of engine and generator. • If necessary, clean battery terminals. • Connect battery charge cable connector plug to panel receptacle identified by the words “12-VOLT D.C.” • Move run/stop switch to “Stop.” • Close the fuel shut–off valve. • Connect battery charge cable clamp with red handle to the positive (+) battery terminal (Figure 5). Operating Automatic Idle Control Figure 5 — Battery Connections This switch is designed to greatly improve fuel economy. When this switch is turned ON, the engine will only run at its normal high governed engine speed when an electrical load is connected. When an electrical load is removed, the engine will run at a reduced speed. With the switch off, the engine will run at the normal high engine speed. Always have the switch off when starting and stopping the engine. Charging a Battery DANGER! Storage batteries give off explosive hydrogen gas while recharging. This explosive mixture will remain around the battery for a long time after it has been charged. The slightest spark can ignite the hydrogen and cause an explosion. Such an explosion can shatter the battery and cause blindness or other serious injury. • Connect battery charge cable clamp with black handle to the negative (–) battery terminal (Figure 5). • Start engine. Let the engine run while battery recharges. DANGER! Do Not permit smoking, open flame, • When battery has charged, shut down engine sparks or any other source of heat around a battery. Wear protective goggles, rubber apron and rubber gloves when working around a battery. Battery electrolyte fluid is an extremely caustic sulfuric acid solution that can cause severe burns. If spill occurs, flush area with clear water immediately. Your generator has the capability of recharging a discharged 12 Volt automotive or utility style storage battery. Do Not use the unit to charge any 6 Volt batteries. Do Not use the unit to crank an engine having a discharged battery. NOTE: Use an automotive hydrometer to test battery state of charge and condition. Follow the hydrometer manufacturer’s instructions carefully. Generally, a battery is considered to be at 100% state of charge when specific gravity of its fluid (as measured by hydrometer) is 1.260 or higher. 7 Generac Portable Products 3,500 Watt Generator COLD WEATHER OPERATION • Ensure a minimum of two feet clearance between open side of box and nearest object. Under certain weather conditions (temperatures below 40°F [4°C] and a high dew point), your Generac generator may experience icing of the carburetor and/or the crankcase breather system. • Enclosure should hold enough heat created by the generator to prevent icing problems. • Face exposed end away from wind and elements. CAUTION! Never run unit indoors; Do Not enclose generator any more than shown. Remove shelter when temperatures are above 40°F [4°C]. In an emergency, use the original shipping box as a temporary shelter: • Cut off all flaps. RECEPTACLES • Cut out one of the long sides of the box to expose exhaust side of unit. Ensure a minimum of two feet clearance between open side of box and nearest object. 120 Volt AC, 15 Amp Receptacles Each of these outlets is protected against overload by 15 Amp push-to-reset circuit breakers (Figure 7). • Cut appropriate slots to access receptacles of unit. You may also need to cut a clearance slot for the handle. Figure 7 — 120 Volt, 15 Amp Receptacles • Start unit, then place box over it. IMPORTANT: Remove shelter when temperature is above 40°F [4°C]. For a more permanent shelter, build a structure that will enclose three sides and the top of the generator: • Make sure entire muffler-side of generator is exposed. A typical shelter is shown in Figure 6. Figure 6 — Temporary Cold Weather Shelter Wind Use each outlet to operate 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single phase loads requiring 1,800 (1.8 kW) watts at 15 Amps of current. 8 Generac Portable Products 3,500 Watt Generator 120/240 Volt AC, 20 Amp Locking Receptacle 120 Volt AC, 30 Amp Locking Receptacle Use a NEMA L14-20 plug with this receptacle. Connect a 4-wire cord set rated for 250 Volts AC at 30 Amps (or greater) (Figure 8). You can use the same 4-wire cord if you plan to run a 120 Volt load. Use a NEMA L5-30 plug with this receptacle. Connect a 3wire cord set rated for 125 Volts AC at 30 Amps to the plug (Figure 9). Figure 9 — 120 Volt, 30 Amp Locking Receptacle Figure 8 — 120/240 Volt, 20 Amp Locking Receptacle Use this receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 3,500 watts (3.5 kW) of power at 29.2 Amps. The outlet is protected by a push-to-reset circuit breaker. This receptacle powers 120/240 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 2,400 watts of power at 20 Amps for 120 Volts OR 3,500 watts of power (3.5 kW) at 14.6 Amps for 240 Volts. The outlet is protected by a push-to-reset circuit breaker. CAUTION! Although this outlet states it has a 120 Volt, 30 Amp rating (up to 3,600 watts), the generator is only rated for 3,500 watts. Powering loads that exceed the wattage/amperage capacity of the generator can damage it or cause serious injuries. Loads of 120 Volts powered through this outlet should not exceed 29.2 Amps of current. 9 Generac Portable Products 3,500 Watt Generator DON’T OVERLOAD THE GENERATOR • If the appliance, tool or motor does not give wattage, multiply 120 Volts times ampere rating to determine watts (volts x amps = watts). • Some electric motors, such as induction types, require about three times more watts of power for starting than for running. This surge of power lasts for only a few seconds when starting such motors. Be sure you allow for this high starting wattage when selecting electrical devices to connect to your generator. First figure the watts needed to start the largest motor. Add to that figure the running watts of all other connected loads. Overloading a generator in excess of its rated wattage capacity can result in damage to the generator and/or connected electrical devices. Observe the following, to prevent overloading the unit: • Add up the total wattage of all electrical devices to be connected at one time. This total should NOT be greater than the generator’s wattage capacity. • The rated wattage of lights can be taken from light bulbs. The rated wattage of tools, appliances and motors can usually be found on a data plate or decal affixed to the device. • Items in the wattage reference guide (Figure 10) are provided to help you to determine how many items the generator can operate at one time.

STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS The generator should be started at least once every seven days and allowed to run at least 30 minutes. If this cannot be done and you must store the unit for more than 30 days, use the following guidelines to prepare it for storage. The Owner/Operator is responsible for making sure that all periodic maintenance tasks are completed on a timely basis; that all discrepancies are corrected; and that the unit is kept clean and properly stored. Never operate a damaged or defective generator. Generator Storage • Clean the generator as outlined in “To Clean the Generator.” Engine Maintenance • Check that cooling air slots and openings on generator are open and unobstructed. See engine manual for instructions. DANGER! Storage covers can be flammable. Do Not place a storage cover over a hot generator. Let the unit cool for a sufficient time before placing the cover on the unit. Generator Maintenance Generator maintenance consists of keeping the unit clean and dry. Operate and store the unit in a clean dry environment where it will not be exposed to excessive dust, dirt, moisture or any corrosive vapors. Cooling air slots in the generator must not become clogged with snow, leaves or any other foreign material. Engine Storage See engine owner’s manual for instructions. Other Storage Tips NOTE: Do Not use a garden hose to clean generator. Water can enter engine fuel system and cause problems. In addition, if water enters generator through cooling air slots, some of the water will be retained in voids and cracks of the rotor and stator winding insulation. Water and dirt buildup on the generator internal windings will eventually decrease the insulation resistance of these windings. • Do Not store gasoline from one season to another. • Replace your gasoline can if it starts to rust. Rust and/or dirt in a gasoline can cause problems when you use contaminated fuel with this unit. • Store in clean and dry area. 11 Generac Portable Products 3,500 Watt Generator TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Engine is running, but no AC output is available.
