INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing the Guardian product line by Generac Power Systems. This model is a compact, high performance, liquid-cooled, engine-driven gen- erator designed to automatically supply electrical power to operate critical loads during a utility power failure. This unit is factory installed in an all-weather, metal enclosure that is intended exclusively for outdoor installation.
If you use a procedure, work method or operating technique Generac does not specifically recommend, you must satisfy yourself that it is safe for you and others. You also must make sure the procedure, work method or operating technique that is chosen does not render the generator unsafe.

Connecting this generator to an electrical system normally supplied by an electric utility shall be by means of a transfer switch (such as the Generac “GTS” type transfer switch), so as to isolate the electric system from the utility distribution system when the generator is operating. Failure to isolate the electric system by these means will result in damage to the generator and may also result in injury or death to utility workers due to backfeed of electrical energy.
