Top view of the unit Typical clearance around the unit | |
The unit should have adequate clearance on all sides in order to allow proper airflow. Allow approximately 2 m (6.6 ft) of clearance on all sides.
- Place the unit in a stable position.
- Ensure that you use wheel chocks that are suitable for the trailer.
- Unfasten the tow vehicle before you operate the unit.
|
Failure to close doors when the unit is operating can result in doors opening and closing at a high rate of speed. Contact with the doors may cause personal injury or death. |

Close all the doors and ensure that the doors are latched. This will provide maximum performance from the unit.
Distribution Panels

(1) Dual voltage distribution panel (2) Single voltage distribution panel | |
The dual voltage distribution panel (240V or 480V) is equipped with a main circuit breaker that has an adjustable trip unit. This panel is equipped with a voltage changeover link board. You should determine the voltage use. Position the link board for the desired voltage before you connect the load.
The single voltage distribution panel (600V) is equipped with a single voltage main circuit breaker and a single voltage main load connection.

Note: The procedure for the load connection is illustrated by using a dual voltage distribution panel. All of the instructions are typical for both the dual voltage distribution panel and for the single voltage distribution panel.
- Ensure that the generator set is not operating. Place the handle of the main circuit breaker in the "OFF" position. The "OFF" position is the open position.
- Remove the clear plastic shield on the main circuit breaker which covers the switches for the rotary trip adjustment. Use a small screwdriver to adjust the switches of the rotary trip adjustment to the correct amperage.
- "HIGH - 500 Amp"
- "LOW - 1000 Amp"
- "HIGH - 500 Amp"
- Install the clear plastic shield in order to cover the switches of the rotary trip adjustment. Proceed with the load connection.
Load Connection

| NOTICE |
|---|
Verify the correct load phase rotation with the generator prior to connecting the output power cables. |
Note: The procedure for the load connection is illustrated by using a dual voltage distribution panel. All of the instructions are typical for both the dual voltage distribution panel and for the single voltage distribution panel.

- Ensure that the generator set is not operating. Place the handle of the main circuit breakers (1) in the "OFF" position. The "OFF" position is the open position.
Dual voltage distribution panels can have two different voltages. Determine the voltage to use. Use either HIGH (480 V) or LOW (240 V) voltage.
- Connect the output power cables to the receptacles (6) or to the bus bars (2) .
If it is necessary to connect the output power cables to the bus bars:
- Loosen thumb screws (4) and open the door to the load connections. The shunt trips for the main circuit breaker are activated when the door is opened.
- Connect the output power cables to the appropriate bus bars (2). Tighten the bolts to the recommended torque. Refer to the torque specifications section of this manual.
- Close the door to the load connections and secure the door with thumbscrews (4). The shunt trips for the main circuit breakers will activate if the door is not properly secured.
- Check the battery for the breakaway switch. Make sure that the battery is adequately charged. Check the battery charger and ensure that the output of the battery charger is 5 Amperes at 12 DCV.
- Connect the ground connection (3) to a suitable grounding electrode of no more than 25 ohms.
|
Failure to connect the unit to a suitable grounding electrode can result in electrical shock and may cause injury or death. |
|
- Connect the control wiring (if equipped) for the automatic start/stop to the connection points for the remote start/stop (5) .
- Close circuit breakers (1) after the connection is made and the engine is running.
