The operator should perform all of the prestart checks.
Start the generator set according to the starting
procedure in the controller section of this manual. While

set
is
smooth-running engine and visually inspect the
generator set for fluid or exhaust leaks.
2.4 Operation in Cold Weather
Climates
Cold weather operation is generally considered ambient
temperatures below freezing 0_C (32_F). The following
items are recommended for cold weather starting and/or
operation. Have a licensed electrician install 120 VAC,
15 amp outlets as needed if not already in the immediate
area.
Refer to the engine operation manual regarding engine
oil viscosity, fuel composition, and coolant mixture
recommendations.
An engine block heater is generally recommended
D
for most units when operated below 0_C (32_F).
Heater tape is recommended when the generator set
D
is operated at or below 50% of rated load. Wrap the
UL/CSA compliant heater tape around the crankcase
canister/breather system hose that runs from the
crankcase to the air intake and use cable ties as
needed to secure the heater tape. If the heater tape is
within 152 mm (6 in.) of the exhaust system, use
thermal insulation material to protect the heater tape.

Controls and Indicators
Figure 2-4 describes the controls and indicators located
on the controller. The LED display indicates generator set
status as shown in Figure 2-4. The display is activated by

position or the power to the controller is removed.
The buttons on the controller keypad are used only for
system configuration and adjustment. The controller is
