ENGINE SPEED ___________________________________________________________

The engine speed is set at the factory for proper
generator output. However, engine speed should be
checked periodically, and adjusted to 59 volts. An output
voltage greater than 60 volts will cause an alarm to sound
and may cause system damage. Controller will shut
down after 60 seconds if the over voltage condition is not
corrected.
Adjustment should be made with the engine at operating
temperature using a volt meter.
