OPERATION
Neutral ground wire
4. Reinstall the alternator cover.
IMPORTANT: Apply a new "NEUTRAL UNBONDED"
Label over the "NEUTRAL BONDED TO
FRAME" label on the front of the control
panel.
HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION
Engine power is reduced the higher you operate above sea
level. Output will be reduced approximately 3.5% for every
1000 feet of increased altitude from sea level.
High altitude adjustment is required for operation at
altitudes over 5,000 ft. (1524 m). Operation without this
adjustment will cause decreased performance, increased
fuel consumption, and increased emissions. Operation of
the engine at altitudes below 2,000 ft. (762 m) with the high
altitude kit is not recommended.
High Altitude Carburetor Kit Part# 518965
High Altitude DF Regulator: Part# 518516
Note: You must purchase both the Dual Fuel Regulator
and Carburetor Kit for proper high altitude operation.
VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH
The 120V/240V selector switch, which gives the user the
ability to double the amperage in the generator for more
demanding applications. The voltage selector switches the
dual 120V AC windings of the generator to produce 120V
or 240V. If a 240V appliance is connected to the 4-prong
L14-30R receptacle, the switch must be in the "240V"
position. The 120V only outlets will not output power when
the Voltage Selector is in the 240V position.
Only change the Voltage Selector Switch with the
generator OFF. DO NOT switch the voltage while the
generator is running or powering appliances.

WARNING

FUEL SELECTOR SWITCH

Position the fuel selector switch on the front control panel
to the desired fuel choice.
Turn the fuel selector switch fully upward for gasoline
operation.
Turn the fuel selector switch fully downward for propane
operation.

BREAK-IN PERIOD

For proper break-in, DO NOT exceed 50% of the rated
running watts (2650 watts) during the first five hours of
operation.
Vary the load occasionally to allow stator windings to heat
and cool and help seat the piston rings.
