Installation
You can secure the generator with the holders supplied in two ways:
• External installation (fig. 2, page 3):
External installation has the following benefits: lower space requirement, fast
installation, easy access for maintenance work.
– To ensure the generator is attached securely, use the retaining bracket
(fig. 2 1, page 3) supplied.
– If the air intake opening of the generator is located behind a vehicle wheel,
you need to prevent the wheel from splashing any water into the generator
interior when it rains (e.g. by using a splash guard).
• Internal installation (fig. 3, page 4):
For internal installation, you need to prepare a sealed compartment against the
vehicle interior which can also be insulated against sound.
– Attach exhaust and air intake openings to the floor and in front of the
generator cover. The air intake openings must have cross-section of at least
2
240 cm .
– You must also fit a seal (AG 128; available as an accessory) made of fire-retard-
ant rubber with a thickness of at least 5 mm between the floor of the vehicle
and the generator.
• Leave a space of at least 20 mm between the generator hood and surrounding
parts so that sufficient space remains for cooling air to pass through.
9.3 Securing the silencer
Observe the following instructions when installing the exhaust pipe:
• Do not create any sharp bends which will inhibit the flow of exhaust fumes.
• Align the manifold (fig. 4 1, page 4) along the housing to ensure greater
damping of vibration.
• Use the exhaust pipe extension to extent the exhaust pipe (fig. 4 2, page 4)
(see chapter "Accessories" on page 19).
Secure the extension to the vehicle floor (fig. 4 3, page 4).
➤ Secure the silencer (fig. 4 4, page 4) as in one of the alternatives shown in
fig. 5, page 4 to fig. 9, page 6.
