2.2.1 AC, 20 AMP, DUPLEX RECEPTACLE

This is a 120 Volt outlet protected against overload by a 20 Amp

push-to-reset circuit breaker. Use each socket to power 120 Volt AC,

single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to a combined 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).

Keep extension cords as short as possible, preferably less than 15

feet long, to prevent voltage drop and possible overheating of wires.

Figure 7 - 120 Volt AC, 20 Amp, Duplex Receptacle

2.2.2 120V AC, 20 AMP, GFCI RECEPTACLE

This unit is equipped with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI).

This device meets applicable federal, state and local codes.

A GFCI receptacle is different from conventional receptacles. In

the event of a ground fault, a GFCI will trip and quickly stop the

flow of electricity to prevent serious injury.

Definition: Instead of following its normal safe path, electricity

passes through a persons body to reach the ground. For example,

a defective appliance can cause a ground fault.

A GFCI receptacle does NOT protect against circuit overloads,

short circuits, or shocks. For example, electric shock can still

occur if a person touches charged electrical wires while standing

on a non-conducting surface, such as a wood floor.

Figure 8 - 120 VAC, 20 Amp GFCI Receptacle

Testing the GFCI: Test the GFCI outlet every month as follows:

• Plug a test lamp into the receptacle.

• Start the generator, the test lamp should be on.

• Press the “Test” button located on the front of the receptacle

to trip the device.

• This should stop the flow of electricity making the lamp shut

off. The yellow trip indicator should now be on.

• To restore the flow of electricity, press the “Reset” button on

the front of the receptacle. If the GFCI does not perform in this

manner, do not use the receptacle. Contact a local service

dealer.

• This outlet is protected against overload by a 20A push-to-

reset circuit breaker. Use the outlet to power 120V AC, single-

phase, 60 Hz, electrical loads requiring up to a combined 2400

watts (2.4 kW) or 20 amps of current.

2.3 HOW TO USE THE GENERATOR

If you have any problems operating your generator, please call the

generator helpline at 1-800-333-1322.

2.3.1 GROUNDING THE GENERATOR

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, generally, connecting a No. 10 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. However, local

codes may vary widely. Consult with a local electrician for

grounding requirements in your area.

Figure 13 - Grounding the Generator

Proper grounding of the generator will help prevent electrical

shock in the event of a ground fault condition in the generator or

in connected electrical devices. Proper grounding also helps

dissipate static electricity, which often builds up in ungrounded

devices.

2.3.2 CONNECTING ELECTRICAL LOADS

DO NOT connect 240 Volt loads to 120 Volt receptacles. DO NOT

connect 3-phase loads to the generator. DO NOT connect 50 Hz

loads to the generator.

• Let engine stabilize and warm up for a few minutes after

starting.

• Plug in and turn on the desired 120 or 240 Volt AC, single

phase, 60 Hz electrical loads.

• Add up the rated watts (or amps) of all loads to be connected

at one time. This total should not be greater than (a) the rated

wattage/amperage capacity of the generator or (b) circuit

breaker rating of the receptacle supplying the power. See

"Don't Overload the Generator" below.

2.4 DON’T OVERLOAD THE

GENERATOR

Overloading a generator in excess of its rated wattage capacity

can result in damage to the generator and to 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.

• If the appliance, tool or motor does not give wattage, multiply

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 only a few seconds when starting

such motors. Make sure you allow for this high starting

wattage when selecting electrical devices to connect to your

generator:

1. Figure the watts needed to start the largest motor.

2. Add to that figure the running watts of all other connected

loads.

The Wattage Reference Guide on page 10 is provided to assist you

in determining how many items your generator can operate at one

time. (Note: All figures are approximate. See data plate on

Section 2 – Operation

Residential Portable Generator System

2.6 BEFORE STARTING THE

GENERATOR

Prior to operating the generator, engine oil and gasoline will need

to be added, as follows:

2.6.1 ADDING ENGINE OIL

NOTE: When adding oil to the engine crankcase in the future,

use only high quality detergent oil rated with API service

classification SG, SH or SL SAE 30 weight. Use no special

additives.

Select the oil’s viscosity grade according to the expected

operating temperature. Do not use SAE 10W-40.

• Above 40°F, use SAE 10W-30 or SAE 30.

• Below 40°F, use synthetic 5W-20 or 5W-30.

Although multi-viscosity oils (5W-30, 10W-30, etc.) improve

starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosity oils will result in

increased oil consumption when used above 32°F. Check your

engine oil level more frequently to avoid possible damage from

running low on oil.

• Place generator on a level surface.

• Clean area around oil fill and remove oil fill cap and dipstick.

• Wipe dipstick clean.

• Slowly fill engine with oil through the oil fill opening until it

reaches the full mark on the dipstick. Stop filling occasionally

to check oil level. DO NOT OVERFILL.

• Install dipstick. Install oil fill cap and finger tighten securely.

• Check engine oil level before starting each time thereafter.

2.6.2 ADDING GASOLINE

WARNING: 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.

Caution: Do not overfill the fuel tank. Always leave room

for fuel expansion.

• Use regular UNLEADED gasoline with the generator engine. Do

not use premium gasoline. Do not mix oil with gasoline.

• Clean area around fuel fill cap, remove cap.

• Slowly add unleaded regular gasoline to fuel tank. Be careful

not to overfill. Allow about 1/2" of tank space for fuel

expansion, as shown here.

• Install fuel cap and wipe up any spilled gasoline.

Figure 14 - Fuel Tank

IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits from

forming in fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel hose or

tank during storage. 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. To avoid

engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied before

storage of 30 days or longer. See "Storage" on page 18. Never use

engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank as

permanent damage may occur.

2.7 TO START THE ENGINE

 WARNING: Never start or stop engine with electrical devices

plugged into the receptacles AND devices turned on.

• Unplug all electrical loads from the unit's receptacles before

starting the engine.

• Make sure the unit is in a level position.

• Open the fuel shut-off valve.

Figure 15 - Fuel Shut-off Valve

• Locate the Idle Control ON/OFF switch on the control panel and

set it to the “OFF” position.

Figure 16 - Idle Control Switch

Section 2 – Operation

Residential Portable Generator System

11

-------------  WARNING -------------

• Move engine CHOKE knob to “Full Choke” position.

Figure 17 - Full Choke Position

• To start engine, press and hold the Start/Run/Stop switch in

the “Start” position. The engine will crank and attempt to start.

When the engine starts, release the switch to the run position.

• When the engine starts, move choke knob to “1/2 Choke”

position until the engine runs smoothly and then to “Run”

position. If engine falters, move choke knob to “1/2 Choke”

position until the engine runs smoothly and then to “Run”

position.

Note: If engine fires, but does not continue to run, move choke

lever to “Full Choke” and repeat starting instructions.

2.8 STOPPING THE ENGINE

• Shut off all loads, then unplug the electrical loads from

generator panel receptacles. Never start or stop the engine

with electrical devices plugged in and turned on.

• Turn “Off” the Idle Control switch (if on).

• Let engine run at no-load for several minutes to stabilize the

internal temperatures of engine and generator.

• Move Start/Run/Stop switch to “Off” position.

• Close fuel valve.

IMPORTANT: Do not overload the generator. Also, do not

overload individual panel receptacles. These outlets are protected

against overload with push-to-reset-type circuit breakers. If

amperage rating of any circuit breaker is exceeded, that breaker

opens and electrical output to that receptacle is lost. Read “Don’t

Overload the Generator” on page 9 carefully.

2.9 AUTOMATIC IDLE CONTROL

This feature is designed to greatly improve fuel economy. When

this switch is turned “On,” the engine will only run at its normal

fast governed engine speed when electrical load is connected.

When the load is removed, the engine will run at a reduced speed

of 2100 RPM. With the switch “Off,” the engine runs at the normal

fast engine speed all the time. Always have the switch OFF when

starting and stopping the engine.

2.10 COLD WEATHER OPERATION/ DE-ICER

Under certain weather conditions (temperatures below 40° F (4°

C) and a high dew point), the engine may experience icing of the

carburetor and/or the crankcase breather system. To eliminate

this problem, this generator engine is fitted with a winter/summer

valve. this directs hot air into the carburetor during cold weather

operation. Always make sure the winter/summer valve is in the

correct location relative to the weather conditions.

2.11 LOW OIL PRESSURE SHUTDOWN

SYSTEM

The engine is equipped with a low oil pressure sensor that shuts

down the engine automatically when the oil pressure drops below

10 psi. If the engine shuts down by itself and the fuel tank has

enough gasoline, check engine oil level.

2.11.1 INITIAL START-UP

A delay built into the low oil shutdown system allows oil pressure

to build during starting. The delay allows the engine to run for

about 10 seconds before sensing oil pressure.

2.11.2 SENSING LOW OIL PRESSURE

If the system senses low oil pressure during operation, the engine

shuts down.

2.11.3 RESTARTING

If you try to restart the engine within 10 seconds after it shuts

down, the engine may NOT start. The system needs 5 to 10

seconds to reset.

If you do restart the engine after such a shutdown and have not

corrected the low oil pressure, the engine runs for about 10

seconds as described above and then stops.

Section 2 – Operation

2.12 CHARGING A BATTERY

DANGER! Storage batteries give off explosive hydrogen gas

while recharging. An 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.

DANGER! Do not permit smoking, open flame, 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.

This battery charger is a pulse type designed to provide a quality

charge current into the battery. The voltage measured at the outlet

should be 8-12 VDC. This is normal and does not indicate a faulty

charging system.

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.

• If the battery is equipped with vent caps, make sure they are

installed and are tight.

• If necessary, clean battery terminals.

• Connect battery charge cable connector plug to panel

receptacle identified by the words "12-VOLT D.C."

• Connect battery charge cable clamp with red handle to the

positive (+) battery terminal.

• Connect battery charge cable clamp with black handle to the

negative (-) battery terminal.

• Start engine. Let the engine run while battery recharges.

Engine idle control switch must be in off position for battery

charging.

• When battery has charged, shut down engine.

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.

PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS

15

3.3 GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

The warranty of the generator does not cover items that have

been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To receive full

value from the warranty, the operator must maintain the generator

as instructed in this manual.

Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to properly

maintain the generator.

All adjustments in the Maintenance section (3) of this manual

should be made at least once each season. Follow the

requirements in the "Maintenance Schedule" chart on page 14.

NOTE: Once a year you should replace the spark plug and

replace the air filter. A new spark plug and clean air filter

assure proper fuel-air mixture and help your engine run better

and last longer.

3.3.1 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.

Check the cleanliness of the generator frequently and clean when

dust, dirt, oil, moisture or other foreign substances are visible on

its exterior surface.

CAUTION! Never insert any object or tool through the air

cooling slots, even if the engine is not running.

Note: DO NOT use a garden hose to clean generator. Water can

enter the engine fuel system and cause problems. In addition,

if water enters the generator through cooling air slots, some

water will be retained in voids and crevices 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.

3.3.2 TO CLEAN THE GENERATOR

• Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.

• A soft, bristle brush may be used to loosen caked on dirt, oil, etc.

• A vacuum cleaner may be used to pick up loose dirt and debris.

• Low pressure air (not to exceed 25 psi) may be used to blow

away dirt. Inspect cooling air slots and openings on the

generator. These openings must be kept clean and

unobstructed.

3.3.3 ENGINE MAINTENANCE

DANGER! When working on the generator, always disconnect

negative cable from battery. Also disconnect spark plug wires

from spark plug and keep wire away from spark plug.

3.3.4 CHECKING OIL LEVEL

See the “BEFORE STARTING THE GENERATOR” section on page

10 for information on checking the oil level. The oil level should

be checked before each use, or at least every eight hours of

operation. Keep the oil level maintained.

3.3.5 CHANGING THE OIL AND OIL FILTER

Change the oil and filter after the first eight hours of operation.

Change the oil every 100 hours thereafter. If you are running this

unit under dirty or dusty conditions, or in extremely hot weather,

change the oil more often.

Use the following instructions to change the oil while the

engine is still warm:

• Clean area around oil drain hose and plug.

• Remove oil drain plug from end of hose and oil fill plug to drain

oil completely into a suitable container.

• When oil has completely drained, install oil drain plug and

tighten securely.

• Place a suitable container beneath the oil filter and turn filter

counterclockwise to remove. Discard according to local

regulations.

• Coat gasket of new filter with clean engine oil. Turn filter

clockwise until gasket contacts lightly with filter adapter. Then

tighten an additional 3/4 turn.

• Fill oil sump with recommended oil. (See “Before Starting the

Generator” on page 10 for oil recommendations).

• Wipe up any spilled oil.

Section 3 — Maintenance

Residential Portable Generator System

3.3.6 REPLACING THE SPARK PLUG

Use Champion RC14YC spark plug or equivalent. The correct air

gap is 1.01 mm (0.040 in.). Replace the plug once each year.

This will help your engine start easier and run better.

1. Stop the engine and pull the spark plug wire off of the spark

plug.

2. Clean the area around the spark plug and remove it from the

cylinder head.

3. Set the spark plug's gap to 1.01 mm (0.040 in.). Install the

correctly gapped spark plug into the cylinder head.

Figure 18 - Spark Plug Gap

3.4 SERVICE AIR CLEANER

Your engine will not run properly and may be damaged if you run

it using a dirty air cleaner. Clean or replace the air cleaner paper

filter once a year. Clean or replace more often if operating under

dusty conditions. Clean foam pre-cleaner every month or more

often under dusty conditions.

Figure 20 - Air Cleaner

To clean or replace foam pre-cleaner:

• Remove air cleaner cover, then foam pre-filter.

• Wash pre-cleaner in soapy water. Squeeze pre-filter dry in

clean cloth (DO NOT TWIST).

• Clean air cleaner cover before re-installing it.

To clean or replace paper air filter:

• Remove air cleaner cover; then remove foam pre-filter (service

if necessary) and remove paper filter.

• Clean paper filter by tapping it gently on a solid surface. If the

filter is too dirty, replace it with a new one. Dispose of the old

filter properly.

• Clean air cleaner cover then slip pre-cleaner over filter. Next

insert new paper filter into the base of the air cleaner. Re-

install air cleaner cover.

Note: To order a new air filter, please contact the nearest

authorized service center at 1-800-333-1322.

3.5 CLEAN SPARK ARRESTOR SCREEN

The engine exhaust muffler has a spark arrestor screen. Inspect

and clean the screen at least once each year. If unit is used

regularly, inspect and clean more often.

NOTE: If you use your generator on any forest-covered, brush-

covered or grass-covered unimproved land, it must equipped

with a spark arrestor. The spark arrestor must be maintained in

good condition by the owner/operator.

Clean and inspect the spark arrestor as follows:

• Remove the screen retaining bracket by removing the screw.

• Slide the spark arrestor screen out from the tail pipe.

• Inspect screen and replace if torn, perforated or otherwise

damaged. DO NOT USE a defective screen. If screen is not

3.6 ADJUSTING VALVE CLEARANCE

After the first 50 hours of operation, you should adjust the valve

clearance in the engine.

Important: If you feel uncomfortable about doing this procedure

or you don't have the proper tools, please take your generator in

to the nearest service center to have the valve clearance adjusted.

This is a very important step to insure longest life for your engine.

To adjust valve clearance:

• Make sure the engine is at room temperature (60° - 80° F).

• Make sure that the spark plug wire is removed from the spark

plug and out of the way.

• Remove the four screws attaching the valve cover with a #2 or

#3 phillips screwdriver.

• Make sure the piston is at Top Dead Center (TDC) of its

compression stroke (both valves closed). To get the piston at

TDC, remove the intake screen at the front of the engine to gain

access to the flywheel nut. Use a large socket and socket

wrench to rotate the nut and hence the engine. While watching

the piston through the spark plug hole. The piston should

move up and down. The piston is at TDC when it is up as high

as it can go.

• Loosen the rocker jam nut. Use an 10mm allen wrench to turn

the pivot ball stud while checking clearance between the rocker

arm and the valve stem with a feeler gauge. Correct clearance

is 0.002-0.004 inch (0.05-0.1 mm).

NOTE: You must hold the rocker arm jam nut in place as you

turn the pivot ball stud.

When valve clearance is correct, hold the pivot ball stud in place

with the allen wrench and tighten the rocker arm jam nut. Tighten

the jam nut to 174 in/lbs. torque. After tightening the jam nut,

recheck valve clearance to make sure it did not change.

Figure 22 - Valve Clearance Adjustment

• Install new valve cover gasket.

• Re-attach the valve cover.

NOTE: Start all four screws before tightening or you will not be

able to get all the screws in place. Make sure the valve cover

gasket is in place.

• Re-attach the spark plug wire to the spark plug.

• Repeat the process for the other cylinder.

3.7 GENERAL

The generator should be started at least once every seven days

and be 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 information as a guide to prepare it for storage.

 DANGER! NEVER store engine with fuel in tank

indoors or in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas where

fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light as on

a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer or other gas

appliance.

3.8 LONG TERM STORAGE

It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential

fuel system parts such as the carburetor, 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.

To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied

before storage of 30 days or longer, as follows:

• Remove all gasoline from the fuel tank.

DANGER! Drain fuel into approved container outdoors,

away from open flame. Be sure engine is cool. Do not

smoke.

• Start and run engine until engine stops from lack of fuel.

• While engine is still warm, drain oil from crankcase. Refill with

recommended grade.

• Remove spark plugs and pour about 1/2 ounce

(15 ml) of engine oil into the cylinders. Cover spark plug hole

with rag. Press the “Start” button and allow engine to crank for

2 seconds. Then press the “Stop” button.

CAUTION! Avoid spray from spark plug holes when cranking

engine.

• Install and tighten spark plugs. Do not connect spark plug

wires.

• Clean the generator outer surfaces. Check that cooling air

slots and openings on generator are open and unobstructed.

• Store the unit in a clean, dry place.

3.9 OTHER STORAGE TIPS:

• Do not store gasoline from one season to another.

• Replace your gasoline can if your can starts to rust. Rust

and/or dirt in your gasoline will cause problems with the

carburetor and fuel system.

• If possible, store your unit indoors and cover it to give

protection from dust and dirt. BE SURE TO EMPTY THE FUEL

TANK.

• If it is not practical to empty the fuel tank and the unit is to be

stored for some time, use a commercially available fuel

stabilizer added to the gasoline to increase the life of the

gasoline.

• Cover your unit with a suitable protective cover that does not

retain moisture.

 DANGER NEVER cover your generator while engine and

exhaust area are warm.

Section 5—Installation for Manual Transfer Switch

1. PLAN THE LOCATION OF YOUR GENERATOR

(Fig. A) shows the GENERAC 17,500 watt portable

generator placed outside the home and connected to

the weather protective external box. The ground rod

and ground strap show a suggested location only.

When fully installed the ground rod will not protrude

above ground level. NOTE: Do not place the generator

directly under a window.

Select an area outside of your home about 10 feet away

where you can easily transport the portable generator

to and from. Keep in mind that the generator must have

free air flow for proper operation and to ensure there is

no possibility for exhaust gases to build up.

2. Drive an 8-foot grounding rod into the ground to grade

(so that no part is exposed above ground).

3. Determine where the user supplied conduit will pass

through the house from inside to outside. When you

are certain you have clearance on each side of the wall,

drill a small pilot hole through the wall to mark the

location.

With hole saw, drill hole through the sheathing and siding.

4. Measure the lengths of wire and conduit needed to

reach the Manual Transfer Switch. Allow extra length

to clear the joists/studs. While adhering to all local

electrical codes, route the customer supplied conduit

and wiring along ceiling/floor joists and wall studs to

the location where the conduit will pass through the

wall to the exterior of the house.

5. From the inside of the house, feed the end of the

customer supplied conduit through the wall to outside.

6. Remove the threaded lock nut from the conduit

coupling.

THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE TO SERVE AS A GUIDE ONLY!

ANY ELECTRICAL WORK PERFORMED MUST MEET NFPA 70-NEC AND ANY LOCAL CODES THAT APPLY.

7a. Lift cover of the power inlet box and remove the

internal cover plate screws and internal cover plate.

Remove the knock out in the lower center of the box.

From the rear of the connection box, feed wires into

box. Slip the lock nut over wires tighten securely onto

conduit coupling.

7b. Using appropriate fasteners, mount power inlet box over

pre-drilled hole to fully conceal the hole. Seal around the

hole and conduit with insulating material and/or silicone

caulk from both outside and inside of house.

8. Connect the black, red, and white wires to the same

color coded lugs on the back of the receptacle. Failure

to match wires may result in damage to generator and

house wiring. Strip wire insulation back 1/2” and

torque lug screws to 25 in/lbs. The green wire is to be

stripped back 1/2”, inserted into the ground lug and

torque lug screw to 25 in/lbs. Reinstall internal cover

plate and screw. Close and lock cover.

The power inlet box must be locked to ensure safety and

to discourage tampering.

9. Locate manual transfer switch with built-in emergency

load center within one foot of main distribution panel.

The manual transfer switch should be located to the

right of the main distribution panel. Hold transfer

switch against the mounting surface. Level the transfer

switch and mark the mounting holes. Drill the

appropriate size pilot holes. Mount the manual transfer

switch to mounting surface with appropriate fasteners.

 DANGER: Although you may choose to perform electrical

connections yourself, Generac Power Systems, Inc.

recommends that a licensed electrician or individual with

complete knowledge of electricity perform the procedures in

sections 10a and 10b.

 DANGER: Switch service main circuit breaker to “OFF” or

open position prior to removal of cover or removal of any

wiring of the main electrical distribution panel. The wires

connected to the service main circuit breaker remain live or

9a. The 2 foot conduit that is pre-wired into the manual

transfer switch is not fastened to the side of the

enclosure when shipped. To secure the conduit to the

manual switch enclosure proceed as follows. Remove

the cover panel of the manual transfer switch with

emergency load center. Insert the 2 foot conduit into

the knockout and tighten the lock nut securely on the

inside of the enclosure.

NOTE: Balance must be maintained when moving circuit

locations from main electrical distribution panel to emergency

load center. Circuit breaker positions alternate buss bars

vertically. Circuits sharing a neutral wire should either be

moved together to adjacent positions in emergency load center

or not moved. If you are unsure of proper procedure or if your

installation differs from that described in this guide, consult a

licensed professional at this time.

10a. Remove the main electrical distribution panel cover.

Remove appropriate size knockout from the bottom

or side of the main panel. (A 2-foot flexible conduit is

pre-wired from the manual transfer switch with built-

in load center). Remove threaded lock nut from

conduit coupling. Feed all wires through knockout

into main panel. Slip lock nut over wires and tighten

securely onto conduit coupling.

NOTE: Circuits to be moved must be protected by same size

breaker. For example, a 15 amp 120V circuit in emergency load

center will replace a 15 amp 120V circuit in main panel.

NOTE: Both grounded and ungrounded conductors for each

circuit must be moved to the emergency panel and connected to

to the new wiring from the emergency panel using supplied

locknuts.

10b. In your main panel, remove the black (hot) wire from

a circuit breaker that protects a circuit you want to

have powered in the event of a power failure. Wire nut

the black wire to the matching circuit lead wire from

the emergency circuit breaker from load center in the

transfer switch. (All circuit wires are color coded and

labeled for easy identification). Repeat this process

with remaining circuits to be powered by the

generator.

Trace each black (hot) wire connected and wire nut

the white (neutral) wire from the same Romex cable

(circuit) to the matching circuit number on the white

(neutral) wire from the emergency load center. Repeat

for each circuit. (See page 31)

The emergency load center in the transfer switch

supplies the following circuits: (5) 15A/120V, (5)

20A/120V, (1) 20A/240V, (1) 40A/240V and (1)

50A/240V.

11. Install the 60 Amp double pole circuit breaker that you

have purchased into main electrical distribution panel.

This circuit breaker must be compatible with your

main electrical distribution panel. It may be

necessary to reposition remaining circuit breakers or

remove circuit breakers that have been disconnected

to accommodate the insertion of the 60 Amp double

pole circuit breaker. Connect white wire to the main

distribution panel neutral bar. Connect solid green

wire to main electrical panel ground bar. Connect the

black and red wires to the 60 Amp double pole circuit

breaker. Replace electrical distribution panel cover.

Your GENERAC Manual

Transfer Switch is now installed.

NOTE: If additional circuits are required to be protected.

Generac offers an additional 30A manual transfer switch and

30A Power Inlet Kit (Model 5341). This kit can be ordered direct

from the factory 1-800-747-1530 (Option 2).

or equipment is purchased by/delivered to its original, end-use purchaser/owner and shall continue for 24 consecutive months thereafter.

(b) General Emissions Warranty Coverage: Generac warrants to the original, end-use purchaser/owner of the new engine or equipment and to

each subsequent purchaser/owner that each of its engines is...

(1) Designed, built and equipped so as to conform with all applicable regulations adopted by the CARB pursuant to its authority, and

(2) Free from defects in materials and workmanship which, at any time during the ECS Warranty Period, may cause a warranted emissions-

related part to fail to be identical in all material respects to the part as described in the engine manufacturer's application for certification.

The ECS Warranty pertains only to emissions-related parts on your engine, as follows:

(1) Any warranted, emissions-related parts that are not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the

Owner's Manual

shall be

warranted for the ECS Warranty Period. If any such part fails during the ECS Warranty Period, it shall be repaired or replaced by Generac

according to Subsection (4) below. Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted for the remainder of the

ECS Warranty Period.

(2) Any warranted, emissions-related part that is scheduled only for regular inspection as specified in the

Owner's Manual

shall be warranted for

the ECS Warranty Period. A statement in such written instructions to the effect of "repair or replace as necessary" shall not reduce the ECS

Warranty Period. Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period.

(3) Any warranted, emissions-related part that is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the

Owner's Manual

shall be warranted

for the period of time prior to first scheduled replacement point for that part. If the part fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the part

shall be repaired or replaced by Generac according to Subsection (4) below. Any such emissions-related part repaired or replaced under the
