The Denver High-Cycle Generator is designed to produce 3-Phase, 180 Hertz (High Cycle) electricity and can be wired for either 115 volt or 230 volt (230 volt is the factory setting) and is intended to be used to provide the power to a high-cycle concrete vibrator that has been designed to operate on the supplied power.
Grounding WARNING! Before using the generator make sure that it is properly grounded according to National, State and local codes per site conditions. Consult with a competent, qualified electrician. Failure to properly ground the generator is a potential shock hazard and may result in injury or death.
Getting Started Before using the generator, always do a visual pre-start inspection of the entire generator assembly for any obvious signs of damage, leaks, loose or missing parts.

Inspect the running engine and generator section for any loose parts, odd noises, leaks or unusual odors. If any problems are noticed, correct the problem or contact our factory at (800) 395-6703 for further instructions or assistance. If everything appears to be operating normally, proceed to the next step.
