make a base of concrete, rock, gravel, etc., to
prevent grass or weeds from growing around the
compartment. If so, make the base at least 4
inches (100 mm) larger in perimeter than the unit.
See the SPECIFICA TIONS section for unit dimen-
sions.
2. Unlatch the housing latch on the rear side of the
housing panel (wood). Seethe OPERATION sec-
tion for unlatching and opening housing.
3. Slide the housing forward and off the unit.
Sliding the housing off the unit is much easier than trying to
lift off the housing.
4. With sufficient manpowerora mechanical lift, set
the generating set compartment on the base of
concrete, crushed rock, gravel, etc.
If other than a concrete base, be sure 4 x 4 inch (102 x
102 mm) compartment redwood base pieces rest squarely on
the base material.
5. Remove the shipping blocks under eacn side of
the generating set before starting is attempted.
C A U T I O N
If shipping blocks are not removed before
generating set operation, damage could oc-
cur to the unit mounts.
LOAD WIRING
The generating set nameplate located on the right
cylinder air housing shroud gives rated output in
watts, volts, phase, kVA and power factor, amperes,
and hertz. Generator Code "3C" means you can con-
nect the generator for 120 volt, 2 wire; or 120/240
volts, 3 wire. Figure 2 shows the generator load con-
nections available.
All load wiring and electrical connections must be inspected by a
qualified serviceman or electrician.
Load connections are located on the side of the gen-
erator behind the control box. Remove control box
cover for access to load connections. See Figure 3.
Load wires can exit through the rear or the floor of the
compartment.
Connect each wire to the correct generator output
wire. Leads are marked M l , M2, M3, and M4. Each
corresponds to marked leads on the wiring diagram
and those shown in Figure 2. Insulate bare ends of the
wires.
We recommend using water tight, flexible conduit
between the building connection and the generating
set. If rigid conduit is used, a minimum of 1 foot
(305 mm) flexible conduit at the generating set must
be used.
