Appendix A
7. Remove the plastic plugs inside the main breaker access area
to allow connection of the power leads to the circuit breaker.
8. Now connect the red and black power leads to the circuit
breaker. Since this is a single-phase application, it doesn't
matter which wire is connected to which lug.
9. Connect the green equipment ground wire to the ground bus
bar and torque to 35 inch lbs. The torque values are:
• 10-14 AWG = 35 in/lbs
• 8 AWG = 40 in/lbs
• 4-6 AWG = 45 in/lbs
10. Connect the white neutral wire to the neutral bus bar and
torque to 35 inch lbs. The torque values are:
• 10-14 AWG = 35 in/lbs
• 8 AWG = 40 in/lbs
• 4-6 AWG = 45 in/lbs
11. Connect the control wires to the correct terminals. The
terminals are clearly marked N1, N2 and T1.
In order to maintain separation of circuits, the
DC control wires must be separated from the AC
control wires. A piece of fiberglass sleeving has
been provided in the manual kit to achieve this.
Slide the sleeving over the AC wires OR the DC
wires, but not both, from the wire landing area
to the outside of the generator. Use the cable tie
locations to hold the sleeving in place.
12. An improperly connected control wire can damage the
generator control board.

generator control board.
APPENDIX A - SETTING THE AUTOMATIC
EXERCISE FUNCTION
2. The display will enter an Installation Assistant mode when battery
power is first connected. The assistant will prompt to first enter
the current date and time, followed by the exercise day and time.
If the battery is ever disconnected and reconnected, or fuse
removed and replaced, the Installation Assistant will be displayed
again, but only the current date and time will need to be entered.
3. If the exercise time or day ever needs to be changed, press
the escape key to access the main menu.
4. Press the left or right arrow key until 'Edit' is flashing and press
enter.
5. Press the right or left arrow key until the exercise time is
displayed and press enter.
6. Using the arrow and enter keys first set the exercise hour in
24 hour format, followed by the minute, and finally the day.
7. Once set, the generator will exercise each week at the same
time. Be sure to show the owners how to set the exercise
function for the day and time they want the unit to exercise.
8. If the generator is equipped with the low speed exercise feature,
it was enabled at the factory and no adjustment is needed.
Every installation has its own unique set of circumstances
and requirements. This booklet provides guidelines for basic
installations only and is not intended to cover all applications.
If there are any questions or concerns after carefully reading all
documentation received with the equipment, contact the nearest
dealer for assistance.
