Safety Rules

GENERAL HAZARDS

• For safety reasons, the manufacturer recommends that this equipment be

installed, serviced and repaired by a Service Dealer or other competent,

qualified electrician or installation technician who is familiar with applicable

codes, standards and regulations. The operator also must comply with all

such codes, standards and regulations.

• The engine exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, which can be

DEADLY. This dangerous gas, if breathed in sufficient concentrations,

can cause unconsciousness or even death. Do NOT alter or add to the

exhaust system or do anything that might render the system unsafe or

in noncompliance with applicable codes and standards.

• Install a battery operated carbon monoxide alarm indoors, according to

manufacturer’s instructions/recommendations.

• Adequate, unobstructed flow of cooling and ventilating air is critical to

correct generator operation. Do not alter the installation or permit even

partial blockage of ventilation provisions, as this can seriously affect

safe operation of the generator. The generator MUST be installed and

operated outdoors only.

• Keep hands, feet, clothing, etc., away from drive belts, fans, and other

moving or hot parts. Never remove any drive belt or fan guard while

the unit is operating.

• When working on this equipment, remain alert at all times. Never work

on the equipment when physically or mentally fatigued.

• Inspect the generator regularly, and contact the nearest Dealer for

parts needing repair or replacement.

• Before performing any maintenance on the generator, disconnect its

battery cables to prevent accidental start up. Disconnect the cable

from the battery post indicated by a NEGATIVE, NEG or (–) first, then

remove the POSITIVE, POS or (+) cable. When reconnecting the

cables, connect the POSITIVE cable first, the NEGATIVE cable last.

• Never use the generator or any of its parts as a step. Stepping on the

unit can stress and break parts, and may result in dangerous operating

conditions from leaking exhaust gases, fuel leakage, oil leakage, etc.

ELECTRICAL HAZARDS

• All generators covered by this manual produce dangerous electrical

voltages and can cause fatal electrical shock. Utility power delivers

extremely high and dangerous voltages to the transfer switch as does

the standby generator when it is in operation. Avoid contact with bare

wires, terminals, connections, etc., while the unit is running. Ensure

all appropriate covers, guards and barriers are in place, secured and/

or locked before operating the generator. If work must be done around

an operating unit, stand on an insulated, dry surface to reduce shock

hazard.

• Do not handle any kind of electrical device while standing in water,

while barefoot, or while hands or feet are wet. DANGEROUS

ELECTRICAL SHOCK MAY RESULT.

• The National Electrical Code (NEC) requires the frame and external

electrically conductive parts of the generator to be connected to an

approved earth ground. Local electrical codes also may require proper

grounding of the generator electrical system.

• After installing this home standby electrical system, the generator may

crank and start at any time without warning. When this occurs, load

circuits are transferred to the STANDBY (generator) power source. To

prevent possible injury if such a start and transfer occur, always set

the generator’s AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to its OFF position before

working on equipment and remove the 7.5A fuse from the generator

control panel.

• In case of accident caused by electric shock, immediately shut down

the source of electrical power. If this is not possible, attempt to free

the victim from the live conductor. AVOID DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE

VICTIM. Use a nonconducting implement, such as a dry rope or board,

to free the victim from the live conductor. If the victim is unconscious,

apply first aid and get immediate medical help.

• Never wear jewelry when working on this equipment. Jewelry can

conduct electricity resulting in electric shock, or may get caught in

moving components causing injury.

FIRE HAZARDS

• For fire safety, the generator must be installed and maintained

properly. Installation must always comply with applicable codes,

standards, laws and regulations. Adhere strictly to local, state

and national electrical and building codes. Comply with regulations

the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has

established. Also, ensure that the generator is installed in accordance

with the manufacturer’s instructions and recommendations. Following

proper installation, do nothing that might alter a safe installation and

render the unit in noncompliance with the aforementioned codes,

standards, laws and regulations.

• Keep a fire extinguisher near the generator at all times. Extinguishers

rated “ABC” by the National Fire Protection Association are appropriate

for use on the standby electric system. Keep the extinguisher properly

charged and be familiar with its use. Consult the local fire department

with any questions pertaining to fire extinguishers.

EXPLOSION HAZARDS

• Do not smoke around the generator. Wipe up any fuel or oil spills

immediately. Ensure that no combustible materials are left in the

generator compartment, or on or near the generator, as FIRE or

EXPLOSION may result. Keep the area surrounding the generator clean

and free from debris.

• Gaseous fluids such as natural gas and liquid propane (LP) gas are

extremely EXPLOSIVE. Install the fuel supply system according to

applicable fuel-gas codes. Before placing the home standby electric

system into service, fuel system lines must be properly purged and

leak tested according to applicable code. After installation, inspect the

fuel system periodically for leaks. No leakage is permitted.



Only qualified electricians or contractors should

attempt such installations, which must comply

strictly with applicable codes, standards and

regulations.

Safety Rules

UNPACKING/INSPECTION

After unpacking, carefully inspect the contents for damage.

• This standby generator set is ready for installation with a factory

supplied and pre-mounted base pad and has a weather protective

enclosure that is intended for outdoor installation only.



If this generator is used to power electrical load

circuits normally powered by a utility power

source, it is required by code to install a transfer

switch. The transfer switch must effectively isolate

the electrical system from the utility distribution

system when the generator is operating (NEC 700,

701 & 702). Failure to isolate an electrical system

by such means will result in damage to the gen-

erator and also may result in injury or death to

utility power workers due to backfeed of electrical

energy.

If any loss or damage is noted at time of delivery, have the person(s)

making the delivery note all damage on the freight bill or affix their

signature under the consignor’s memo of loss or damage.

If a loss or damage is noted after delivery, separate the damaged

materials and contact the carrier for claim procedures.

“Concealed damage” is understood to mean damage to the contents of a

package that is not in evidence at the time of delivery, but is discovered

later.

To properly open the roof, press down on the center top lip and release

the latch. If pressure is not applied from the top, the roof may appear

stuck. Always verify that the side lock is unlocked before attempting to lift

the roof.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Contact the local inspector or City Hall to be aware of all federal,

state and local codes that could impact the installation. Secure all

required permits before starting the job.

Carefully read and follow all of the procedures and safety

precautions detailed in the installation guide. If any portion of the

installation manual, technical manual or other factory-supplied

documents is not completely understood, contact a dealer for

assistance.

Fully comply with all relevant NEC, NFPA and OSHA standards

as well as all federal, state and local building and electric codes.

As with any generator, this unit must be installed in accordance

with current NFPA 37 and NFPA 70 standards as well as any other

federal, state, and local codes for minimum distances from other

structures.

Every installation has its own unique set of circumstances

and requirements. This booklet provides guidelines for basic

installations only and is not intended to cover all applications.

If there are any questions or concerns after carefully reading all

documentation received with the equipment, contact the nearest

dealer for assistance.

SITE PREPARATION AND GENERATOR

PLACEMENT

1. Locate the mounting area as close as possible to the transfer

switch and fuel supply.

Leave adequate room around the area for service access

(check local code), and place high enough to keep rising

water from reaching the generator.

Choose an open space that will provide adequate and

unobstructed airflow (see the “Location” section in the

Owner’s Manual).

2. Place the unit so air vents won’t become clogged with leaves,

grass, snow or debris. Make sure exhaust fumes will not enter

the building through eaves, windows, ventilation fans or other

air intakes.

Dig a rectangular area approximately five inches deep and

about six inches longer and wider than the footprint of the

generator. Cover with polyurethane film and fill with pea gravel

or crushed stone. Compact and level the stone. A concrete

pad can be poured if desired.

General Information

3. Inspect the generator for shipping damage and if necessary,

file a claim with the shipper.

Remove the bands holding the generator to the wooden pallet.

4. Make sure the lifting equipment to be used has sufficient

capacity to safely handle the weight of the generator.

Use nylon lifting straps and connect them to the lifting eyes

on each corner of the base frame to avoid damaging the

enclosure.

5. Set the generator onto the pad so that the gravel bed extends

beyond the generator on all sides.

Make sure the generator is level within ½ inch.

6. The ground lug is a UL requirement, it is not an NEC

requirement. Grounding should follow local regulations. The

generator should be grounded through the grounding (green

or bare) conductor to the main service ground through the

service disconnect transfer switch.

7. Check the engine oil and, if necessary, add enough of the

recommended oil to bring the level up to the FULL mark on

the dipstick. Be careful not to overfill the crankcase.

CONVERTING TO LP VAPOR

1. The generator was configured for natural gas operation at the

factory. Switching over to LP Vapor is a simple procedure.

On units with the 8 KVA unit engine, begin by disconnecting

and removing the battery if installed. Follow all of the

procedures and safety precautions in the generator Owner’s

Manual when installing and connecting, or disconnecting the

battery.

General Information

2. Open the roof, loosen the forward clamp on the air inlet hose,

and slide the hose away from the hose fitting (8 KVA).

3. Slide the fuel selector pin on the carburetor out towards the

back of the enclosure (8 KVA).

4. Replace the inlet hose and tighten the clamp securely.

5. On 10 and 13 KVA models, simply remove the air cleaner

cover and slide the fuel selector pin outward from the natural

gas to the LP position.

INSTALLING & CONNECTING GAS LINES

1. Both natural gas and LP Vapor are highly volatile substances,

so strict adherence to all safety procedures, codes, standards

and regulations is essential.

Gas line connections should be made by a certified plumber

familiar with local codes. Always use AGA-approved gas pipe

and a quality pipe sealant or joint compound.

Verify the capacity of the natural gas meter or the LP tank in

regards to providing sufficient fuel for both the generator and

other operating appliances.

2. Most applications will require an external manual shutoff valve

on the fuel line.

3. Where the gas line is to enter the generator, install a T-fitting

to allow for gas pressure monitoring. On one opening of the

fitting install a ¼” NPT nipple and threaded plug. In some

cases a sediment trap may also be installed.

General Information

4. When connecting the gas line to the generator, use the

provided section of UL Listed or AGA-approved flexible fuel

line in accordance with local regulations. The purpose of the

flexible fuel line is to ensure that vibration from the generator

does not cause a gas leak at one of the connection points, so

it’s important that the line be installed with as few bends as

possible.

5. Never bend the flexible fuel line to avoid using an elbow.

Bending the flexible line decreases its ability to absorb

vibrations and defeats its purpose as well as constricts the

actual fuel flow.

6. After checking for leaks, check the gas pressure at the

REGULATOR to make sure there’s enough gas pressure for

generator operation. See Owner’s Manual for fuel pressure

specifications. If not within these limits, contact your local gas

supplier.

7. When finished checking the gas pressure, close the manual

shutoff valve.

EXTERNAL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Some of the materials shown in the installation instructions must

be purchased separately and are not included with the generator.

1. Drill an appropriate size hole, and feed the pre-wired conduit

running from the transfer switch through the hole.

2. Remove the knockout in the back of the connection box, feed

the wires through the back of the box and secure the conduit

with the lock nut.

Seal the hole with silicone caulk. Don’t forget to caulk the hole

inside the house as well.

General Information

3. Mount the connection box so that it completely covers the hole in

the wall. Caulk around the sides and top of the box to ensure a good

seal.

Connect all wires to the lugs in the connection box (black to black,

red to red and white to white). Attach the green ground wire to

the ground screw and connect the two small plugs to their mating

receptacle ends.

4. Replace the protective cover plate and retaining screw, and

lock the connection box.

5. Locate the metal hasp that is packaged in the owner’s manual

bag. Insert the hasp in the slot located on the left side of the

external circuit breaker box. Be sure that the clip of the hasp

is facing toward the front of the generator. If desired, lock the

external box.

NOTE:

This circuit breaker may be classified as the disconnect circuit

for the generator. Check local codes for locking and/or lockout

procedures.

GENERATOR CONNECTIONS

NOTE:

This generator comes wired for 220 VAC, no neutral applica-

tions.

1. Remove the screws securing the connection area cover, and

remove the cover.

2. Feed the wires through the back of the generator and secure

the conduit.

3. Run the power leads through a cable tie or some other strain

relief.

General Information

4. The circuit breaker is attached to the exterior access panel.

5. Remove the plastic plugs inside the main breaker access area

to allow connection of the power leads to the circuit breaker.

6. Now connect the power leads to the circuit breaker. Since this

is a single-phase application, it doesn’t matter which power

lead is connected to which lug.

7. Connect the green equipment ground wire to the ground bus

bar and torque to 35 inch lbs. The torque values are:

• 10-14 AWG = 35 in/lbs

• 8 AWG = 40 in/lbs

• 4-6 AWG = 45 in/lbs

8. Connect the control wires to the correct terminals. The

terminals are clearly marked N1 and N2 for utility sensing; 23

and 194 for transfer relay control; and T1 and T2.

NOTE:

In order to maintain separation of circuits, the DC control wires

must be separated from the AC control wires. A piece of fiber-

glass sleeving has been provided in the manual kit to achieve

this. Slide the sleeving over the AC wires OR the DC wires, but

not both, from the wire landing area to the outside of the gen-

erator. Use the cable tie locations to hold the sleeving in place.

NOTE:

An improperly connected control wire can damage the generator

control board.

General Information

9. Inside the generator, locate the connection panel behind

the control panel. Remove the cover to expose customer

connections.

10. Connect a non-supplied T2 wire from the T2 fuse located in

the transfer switch to the post in the left rear of the connection

panel as shown.

BATTERY INSTALLATION

1. A group 26R battery is recommended for these generators.

2. Follow all of the procedures and safety precautions in the

generator Owner’s Manual when installing the battery.

Verify the switch is in the off position. When preparing for

operational testing, DO NOT connect the battery until transfer

switch connections are complete.

General Information

APPENDIX A – RTSI TRANSFER SWITCH

INSTALLATION & OPERATIONAL TESTING

1. Before beginning any installation, make sure power is shut

OFF to the main distribution panel and carefully read the

Owner’s Manual that came with the transfer switch.

To simplify the installation process, the transfer switch

should be mounted as close to the main distribution panel as

possible. Make sure no water or corrosive substances can

drip onto the transfer switch enclosure.

2. Always inspect the switch for shipping damage. Never mount

a transfer switch that shows any evidence of damage.

3. Protect against impact and mount the switch vertically to a rigid

support structure. Make sure the switch is level and plumb.

Check local codes before wiring the transfer switch. Some

jurisdictions require that wiring inside the switch be done by a

licensed electrician.

4. All wiring must be the correct size and type, and must

conform to all codes, standards and regulations. Refer to the

transfer switch Owner’s Manual.

5. As with any product, design changes can occur over time, so

always refer to the schematics in the transfer switch Owner’s

Manual for the required connections and safety precautions.

6. The transfer switch being used is an open transition switch.

Open transition switches prevent electrical feedback between

the generator and the utility by only allowing load circuits to

be connected to one power supply at a time.

Appendix A

SELECTED CIRCUIT COVERAGE

1. The generator powers only designated circuits that are grouped

together and wired into a separate priority distribution panel.

The transfer switch is installed between the main distribution

panel and the priority panel.

The amperage rating of the transfer switch must be equal to

or greater than the highest amperage rating of the utility and

generator breakers feeding the switch.

WHOLE-HOUSE CIRCUIT COVERAGE

1. The generator will be backing up all electrical loads within the

panel, so the amperage rating of the transfer switch must be

equal to or greater than the amperage rating of the normal

utility service.

A main service disconnect must be located before the transfer

switch. The transfer switch must be installed between the

utility service entrance and the building distribution panel.

2. The grounding that is normally in the main panel must be

accomplished in the service rated switch and must be

disconnected in the existing distribution panel.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

1. Connect the power leads from both the generator and the

utility to the appropriate lugs in the transfer switch. The lugs

are clearly marked in the switch.

N = Normal Utility Supply

E = Generator Connection Panel

T = Load Distribution Panel

2. Neutral wires from both the utility and the generator are

connected to the same neutral lug in the switch.

NOTE:

220VAC 2-Wire 50Hz applications will not have the Neutral

wires.

Connect the control wires from the generator to the designated

locations. Wires 23 and 194 connect to the terminal strip; N1,

N2, T1 and T2 connect directly to the fuse holders.

4. Complete the transfer switch wiring by connecting the

equipment ground wires from both the utility and the

generator to the ground lug.

Appendix A

5. Being careful to support the lugs, torque the lugs in the

transfer switch to the specifications shown on the transfer

switch. Decal located on the inside of the switch door.

OPERATIONAL TESTING

1. Switch the main utility breaker OFF. Refer to NFPA 70-E for the

safety equipment required when working inside a live transfer

switch.

2. Energize the utility and check line-to-line and line-to-neutral

(if applicable) voltage at terminals N1 and N2 on the transfer

contactor. If line-to-line voltage is not approximately 220 volts,

de-energize utility power and check the terminations between

the utility and N1 and N2.

If applicable, if line-to-neutral voltage is not approximately

110 volts, de-energize utility power and check the neutral

terminations.

Repeat the same voltage checks on terminals T1 and T2 to

make sure current is flowing properly through the contactor.

3. Switch the generator’s main circuit breaker OFF and put the

mode switch in the OFF position.

4. Make sure utility power is OFF and place all of the individual

circuit

breakers in the main distribution panel in the OFF position.

5. Locate the transfer handle, insert the metal end into the slot in

the main contactor assembly. Pull the handle DOWN to move

the main contacts to the standby power (generator) position.

NEVER OPERATE THE TRANSFER SWITCH MANUALLY WHEN

LOADS ARE CONNECTED.

6. Put the generator’s mode switch in MANUAL to start the engine.

Allow the engine to warm up, then switch the generator’s main

breaker to the ON position. The generator is now supplying

electricity to the transfer switch but is not carrying any load.

7. Check to be sure that voltage and frequency from the

generator is correct. If line-to-

line voltage is not approximately

220 volts, refer to the generator

Owner’s Manual for the proper

adjustment procedures. If line-to-neutral (if applicable) voltage

is not approximately 110 volts, check the neutral connection

between the generator and transfer switch.

Appendix A

8. Switch the generator’s main circuit breaker OFF and put the

mode switch in the OFF position to shut down the generator.

9. With utility power still OFF, use the transfer handle to move the

main contacts to the UP (utility) position.

10. Close the main breaker to turn utility power ON.

11. Switch the generator’s main breaker to the ON position and

put the mode switch in AUTO.

12. Shut OFF utility power and make sure the generator starts

automatically after the line interrupt delay.

13. Switch the utility breaker to ON and make sure that power is

automatically transferred back to the utility.

14. Shut OFF utility power again to automatically start the

generator. When power has transferred to the generator, close

each of the breakers in the distribution panel one at a time

until the generator has accepted the entire load.

Appendix A

15. With the generator carrying the entire load, recheck gas

pressure to verify that it’s at the same level it was before the

generator was started. It should have not changed more than

1” of water column from the original pressure measurement.

NOTE:

Even if the generator is running smoothly at this

point, a drop in gas pressure indicates that the

supply is barely adequate to supply the generator’s

needs. Changes in the generator load, or additional

gas demand by other appliances may affect the

generator’s performance. Verify gas pressure and

pipe sizing. Unhook the manometer and reinstall the

port plug.

16. Switch the utility breaker ON to restore utility power to the

home.

17. The generator will continue to run to allow the engine to cool

down, then shut itself off.

18. Shut OFF utility power again. The generator should start and

the entire priority load should transfer to the generator.

19. Close the main breaker to restore utility power and allow the

engine to cool down and shut itself off.

Operational tests are now complete. Refer to Appendix B

– Setting the Automatic Exercise Function to complete the

installation.

APPENDIX B - SETTING THE AUTOMATIC

EXERCISE FUNCTION

1. The display will enter an Installation Assistant mode when battery

power is first connected. The assistant will prompt to first enter

the current date and time, followed by the exercise day and time.
