2.4.0 REMOVING THE EXTERNAL COVERS (Cont)
Upper Cabinet Hood
Most adjustments and servicing of the generator can be done by flipping back the hood. It is rarely
necessary to completely remove the hood. However, both procedures are detailed below:
Flipping back the hood
Remove the upper wiring channel if fitted. The procedure for doing this is detailed later in this subsection.
Remove screws A and B (shown in figure 2-2) on both sides of the hood. Loosen screw C on both sides of
the hood by 1-2 turns.
Lift up on the front of the hood, allowing the hood to pivot on screws C. The hood should be
supported when flipped open such that the hood does not exert excess pressure on the back of the
cabinet.
Removing the hood
With the hood flipped back, disconnect the ground wire at the base of the upper cabinet by removing the
nut on the cabinet frame that secures the ground lead, and then disconnecting the ring terminal that
secures the ground lead. Lower the hood back to its normal position and remove the two upper screws (C
in figure 2-2). Firmly grip the sides of the hood and slide the hood away from the rest of the cabinet.
Be sure to properly re-connect the ground lead when the hood is replaced.
Upper & Lower Wiring Channels
The wiring channels are optional. If the wiring channels are fitted, the upper and lower wiring access
panels will not be used.
Upper wiring channel
Refer to the instructions for removing the UPPER WIRING ACCESS PANEL on the previous page.
Lower wiring channel
Remove the screw from the upper left hand and upper right hand corners of the panel. Then slide the
wiring channel up such that the shoulder rivets clear the keyhole slot at the bottom of the cabinet. The
lower wiring channel may then be removed from the generator.
