Outdoor Installation

Generator Grounding

If possible install the generator in a area that is free of
debris, bystanders, and overhead obstructions. Make sure
the generator is on secure level ground so that it cannot
slide or shift around.

To guard against electrical shock and possible damage to
the equipment, it is important to provide a good EARTH
ground.

The installation site must be relatively free from moisture
and dust. All electrical equipment should be protected from
excessive moisture. Failure to do will result in deterioration
of the insulation and will result in short circuits and
grounding.
Foreign materials such as dust, sand, lint and abrasive
materials have a tendency to cause excessive wear to
engine and alternator parts.
WARNING
Pay close attention to ventilation when
operating the generator inside tunnels
and caves. The engine exhaust contains
noxious elements. Engine exhaust must
be routed to a ventilated area

Indoor Installation
Exhaust gases from gas engines are extremely poisonous.
Whenever an engine is installed indoors the exhaust
fumes must be vented to the outside. The engine should
be installed at least two feet from any outside wall. Using
an exhaust pipe which is too long or too small can cause
excessive back pressure which will cause the engine to
heat excessively and possibly burn the valves.

Article 250 (Grounding) of the National Electrical Code
(NEC) provides guide lines for proper grounding and
specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the
grounding system of the building as close to the point of
cable entry as practical.
NEC articles 250-64(b) and 250-66 set the following
grounding requirements:
1. Use one of the following wire types to connect the
generator to earth ground.
a. Copper - 10 AWG (5.3 mm2) or larger.
b. Aluminum - 8 AWG (8.4 mm2) or larger.
2. When grounding the generator (Figure 2) connect the
ground cable between the lock washer and the nut on
the generator and tighten the nut fully. Connect the
other end of the ground cable to earth ground.
3. NEC article 250-52(c) specifies that the earth ground rod
should be buried a minimum of 8 ft. into the ground.
NOTICE
When connecting the generator to any buildings
electrical system ALWAYS consult with a licensed
electrician.

placement
The generator should always be placed on a flat level
surface when it is running. DO NOT place the generator
on slopes, the possibility exists that the generator could
slide.
DANGER
An electric shock is apt to happen when
vibrators are used. Pay close attention to
handling when operating vibrators and
always use rubber boots and gloves to
insulate the body from a short circuit.

INSPECTION/SETUP
General Inspection Prior to Operation
Ground Power Tools
When using power tools or electrical equipment requiring
AC power from the generator, make sure power tool cord
has a ground pin or is double insulated as shown in Figure 8.

NOTICE
Double-insulated power tools and small appliances
have specially insulated housings that eliminate the
need for a ground pin. These types of double-insulated
power cords are designed so that no part of the device
will be electrically live even if the internal insulation fails.

Extension Cable
When electric power is to be provided to various tools or
loads at some distance from the generator, extension cords
are normally used. Cables should be sized to allow for
distance in length and amperage so that the voltage drop
between the generator and point of use (load) is held to a
minimum. Use the cable selection chart (Table 4) as a guide
for selecting proper cable size.
DANGER
NEVER use power tools or equipment that do not
have a ground capability, the possibility exists of
electrocution, electrical shock or burn, which can cause
severe bodily harm or even DEATH!

battery (ga6HEB)
This unit is of negative ground DO NOT connect in reverse.
Always maintain battery fluid level between the specified
marks. Battery life will be shortened, if the fluid levels are
not properly maintained. Add only distilled water when
replenishment is necessary.
Check to see whether the battery cables are loose. Poor
contact may result in poor starting or malfunctions. Always
keep the terminals firmly tightened. Coating the terminals
with an approved battery terminal treatment compound
will help prevent corrosion. Replace battery with only
recommended type battery.
The battery is sufficiently charged if the specific gravity
of the battery fluid is 1.28 (at 68° F). If the specific gravity
should fall to 1.245 or lower, it indicates that the battery is
dead and needs to be recharged or replaced.
Before charging the battery with an external electric source,
be sure to disconnect the battery cables.

Battery Cable Installation
NOTICE
Inadequate battery cable connections may cause poor
starting of the generator, and create other malfunctions..
ALWAYS be sure the battery cables are properly connected

NOTICE
ALWAYS disconnect the negative terminal first and
reconnect negative terminal last.
When connecting battery do the following:
1. NEVER use worn or damaged battery cables. Replace
defective battery cables immediately.
2. Place a small amount of battery terminal treatment
compound around both battery terminals. This will
ensure a good connection and will help prevent
corrosion around the battery terminals.
NOTICE
If the battery cables are connected incorrectly, electrical
damage to the generator will occur. Pay close attention
to the polarity markings on the battery when connecting
the battery cables.

Polarity
The polarity of the battery is extremely important. When an
inverted circuit connection takes place, the circuit will be in
short circuit instantaneously resulting in possible damage
to the control box electronics and starter.
When connecting the battery cables to the battery terminals
be sure to check the polarity.
