Installation Manual

General Location Guidelines

• Install the unit outdoors ONLY. NO MODIFICATIONS

WILL ALLOW INSIDE INSTALLATION!

• Place the unit in a prepared location that is fiat and has

provisions for water drainage.

• Install the unit where air inlet and outlet openings will

not become obstructed by leaves, grass, snow, etc. If

prevailing winds will cause blowing or drifting, you may

need to construct a windbreak to protect the unit.

• In locations where strong winds blow from one

direction, face the generator air inlet openings into the

prevailing winds, if possible.

• Install the generator as close as possible to the

Automatic Power Transfer System to reduce the length

of wiring and conduit.

• Install the generator as close as possible to the fuel

supply to reduce length of pipes.

_ AUTION! Laws or local codes may regulate the

distance to the fuel supply.

The Home Standby Generator is shipped already attached

to its mounting pad. Unless mandated by local code, no

concrete slab is required.

If mandated by local code, detach the unit from its supplied

base. Construct a concrete slab at least 3 inches thick and

6 inches longer and wider than the unit.Attach unit to slab

with I/4" diameter (minimum) masonry anchor bolts long

enough to retain the unit. Use the mounting pad holes as

anchor bolt Iocators.

Fuel and Electrical Inlet Dimensions

Figure 2, below, depicts the location of the fuel piping

connector.Also shown is the recommended location for

punching holes for attaching the power conduit.

Lifting the Generator

The generator weighs more than 375 pounds. Proper tools,

equipment and qualified personnel should be used in all

phases of handling and moving the generator.

CAUTION! DO NOT lift unit by roof as damage to

generator will occur.

Two 48" lengths of I" O.D. pipe (supplied by the installer)

are required to lift the generator manually. Insert pipes

through the lifting holes located near the unit's base, as

shown in Figure 3 (next page).

_ AUTION! The unit may shift on the lifting pipes

during movement, which may cause injury.
