USAGE IN HIGH ALTITUDEREGIONS:
In regions with highaltitude,the standardcarburetorproducesoverlydense combinationsoffuel and air, whichresult in
decreasedengine performance and increasedfuel consumption. To maintain highengine performance at high
altitudes, install a high altitudecarburetor main spray nozzle andre-‐‐adjust theadjusting screw foridlespeed. For
usagein regions with an altitudeofover4,527ft (1380m), contact yourdealer toreplace thestandardcarburetor and
make needed adjustmentsin advance. Even with a properhigh altitudecarburetorspray nozzle
installedintheengine,the poweroutput oftheenginewill dropabout3.5%with every1000ft (305m)increasein altitude.
If thestandardcarburetor jets are not replaced and adjustedfor usagein high altitude, theincreasedaltitudeeffect will
be even moresevere.
NOTE: Usage of the generator in regions with lower altitude than thehigh altitudecarburetor spraynozzle is applicable, may
result in decrease of engine performance. Theengine may become overheated and over- ­ ­ l ean combination of fueland air
produced maycausesevere damage to theengine.
TRANSFERSWITCHCONNECTIONS - Only allow Professional Electricians
The Lifan ProSeries generator is wired with theneutral bonded to ground. If you are connecting yourgenerator to a
transfer switch, the electrician must firstdetermine what type transfer switch is being used.Transfer switches for this
equipment are either two-pole orthree- poletypes.
A two-pole transfer switch will not switch theneutral from the generator to the service panel. Thatmeans the
generator will be grounded to the service panel.To use the generator with two-pole transfer switches,the
electrician will need to change the neutral frombonded to floating.
This is done by removing the jumper wire thatconnects the alternator ground to the alternator neutral.Remove the
