HIGH COOLANT TEMPERATURE SHUTDOWN 1. Check the coolant level in the overflow jug. 2. Restart the engine and read the coolant temperature to verify High Coolant Temperature Shutdown. Stop the engine immediately if the coolant temperature is 230°F or more. 3.
GENERATOR OUTPUT CONNECTION LUGS The generator is equipped with connection lugs behind the lug door next to the customer convenience outlets. The lugs provide connection points for attachment of external loads to the generator. A large decal on the inside of the connection lug door details the proper connections for selected voltages.
VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH (MMG 125-155-180) The voltage selector switch is located on a panel attached to the generator behind the door located next to the fuel tank filler. The selector switch is a three position switch that mechanically changes the connections between the generator output leads and the connection lugs on the main control panel.
4-POSITION VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH (OPTIONAL) The optional four position voltage selector switch is located on a panel attached to the generator behind the door located next to the fuel tank filler. The voltage selector is a four position switch that mechanically changes the connections between the generator output leads and the connection lugs on the main control panel.
CHANGING OUTPUT VOLTAGE (MMG 230 ONLY) The output voltage can be changed by moving the shorting (link) board in the generator reconnect box. The reconnect box is located on the top of the generator. Before attempting to change the output voltage, shut the generator down and make sure that the main circuit breaker and the control power switch are in the off “O”...
The regulator has three screwdriver adjustable potentiometers that may be adjusted for voltage, stability and under frequency (U/F). The voltage regulator on your unit is adjusted before shipment from the factory. Contact Magnum Products LLC for additional information before attempting to adjust the voltage regulator.
CUSTOMER CONVENIENCE OUTLETS The generator is equipped with five convenience outlets. The large outlets are 240/120 VAC twist-lock receptacles rated at 50 A each. The smaller outlets are 120 VAC duplex receptacles rated at 20 A each with ground fault interrupt (GFCI) protection.
REMOTE START TERMINAL BLOCK The remote start terminal block is located just under the two 120V duplex convenience outlets. It provides a connection for installation of a remote start switch which will allow the generator to be started by a remote dry-contact closure switch. Before pressing the “AUTO”...
Installation of a transfer switch or other type of remote starting device is the responsibility of the generator user. Installation of such devices must be performed by following all directions supplied by the manufacturer of the switch. If attaching generator to a power supply normally serviced by a utility company, notify the utility company and check local and state regulations.
DAILY MAINTENANCE CHECKS Check the engine oil level daily before starting engine. DO NOT start the generator if the oil level is below the ADD mark on the dipstick. The normal operating level for the engine oil is anywhere in the crosshatch pattern between the FULL and ADD markings.
TOWING THE TRAILER Use the jack to raise or lower the trailer onto the hitch of the towing vehicle. Lock the hitch coupling and attach the safety chains or cables to the vehicle. Release the jack locking pin and rotate the jack into the travel position.
