CAUTION: EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
RUNNING THE GENERATOR SET UNDER THESE
CONDITIONS MAY RESULT IN DAMAGING THE
GENERATOR STATOR AS WELL AS THE MOTOR
WINDING.
Because the heavy surge of current required for starting
motors is required for only an instant, the generator will not
be damaged if it can bring the motor up to speed in a few
seconds of time. If difficulty is experienced in starting
motors, turn all other electrical loads off and if possible
reduce the load on the electric motor.
UNPACKING
CAUTION: EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
THIS UNIT HAS BEEN SHIPPED WITHOUT OIL. Failure to
maintain the engine oil at the proper level will result in
serious engine damage.
When you unpack your new ENGINE GENERATOR be sure to
remove all the information sheets and manuals from the
carton.
1. This power plant was in good order when shipped. Inspect
the power plant promptly after receiving it. If damage is
noted, notify the transportation company immediately;
request proper procedures for filing a "concealed damage"
claim. Title to the equipment and responsibility for filing a
claim rests with you when a generator is sent F.O.B.
shipping point. Only you can legally file a claim.
2. Before proceeding with the preparation of your new engine
generator set for operation, take a couple of minutes to
ensure the unit you have received is the correct model and
review the specification pages in this manual to ensure this
unit fits your job requirements.
3. After removing the engine generator from the carton locate
and remove the shipping straps attached to the generator
shock mounts. See attached tag for removal instructions.
UNIT PREPARATION
Before your engine generator was shipped from our factory it
was fully checked for performance. The generator was
load tested to its full capacity, and the voltage and frequency
were carefully checked and adjusted.
1. Lubrication - Before starting the engine, fill the crankcase
to the proper level with a good quality oil. The
recommended grade of oil and quantity of oil required is
listed in both the engine operator's manual and in the
ADVANCE POWER SERIES
specifications section (pg 1) of this manual. The
necessity of using the correct oil, and keeping the
crankcase full cannot be overemphasized. Engine
failures resulting from inadequate or improper lubricant
are considered abuse and are not covered by the
generator or the engine manufacturer's warranty.
2. Gasoline Fuel - When using gasoline always use a good
grade of unleaded fuel. Leaded gasoline may be used if
unleaded is not available. Gasoline containing alcohol,
such as gasohol is not recommended. However, if
gasoline with alcohol is used, it must not contain more
than 10 percent Ethanol and must be removed from the
engine during storage. DO NOT use gasoline containing
methanol. Always insure that the fuel is clean and free of
all impurities.
WARNING: FIRE DANGER
Gasoline and its fumes are VERY explosive when proper
precautions are not taken.
Never use gasoline that has been stored for an extended
period of time as the fuel will lose it's volatile properties
and you will be left with only the varnish residue. This
varnish like substance will clog the carburetor and will
not burn properly. The use of a fuel additive, such as
STA-BIL, or an equivalent will minimize the formation of
fuel gum deposits. If a unit has been out of operation for
an extended period of time it is best to drain old fuel from
the engine and replace with fresh fuel before attempting
to start.
LOW OIL LEVEL SHUTDOWN SYSTEM
Briggs & Stratton powered generators - Some engine
generator sets come equipped standard with the Briggs
& Stratton OILGARD warning system.
This low oil warning system will automatically stop the
engine before the oil level reaches an operational danger
point. This feature is designed to prevent costly repairs
and downtime.
The OILGARD system uses a float in the engine crankcase
to sense the oil level. If a low oil level condition should
occur during operation, the float will ground out the
magneto impulse, "killing" the engine. In addition, there
is an indicator light mounted on the engine shroud near
the recoil starter. This light will blink on and off to indicate
