Owner’s Manual for 60 Hz Air-Cooled Generators 11
Section 3: Operation
Site Prep Verification
The generator must be installed so that airflow into and
out of the generator is not impeded. Verify that all shrubs
or tall grasses within 3 ft (0.91 m) of the intake and
discharge louvers on the sides of the enclosure have
been removed. Install the generator on high ground
where water levels will not rise and endanger it. This unit
should not operate in or be subjected to standing water.
Verify that all potential water sources such as water
sprinklers, roof run-off, rain gutter downspouts, and sump
pump discharges are directed away from the generator
enclosure.
Generator Enclosure
The lid will be locked. A set of keys is attached to the
intake side of the generator.
1. Cut the plastic bag to remove the keys.
2. Use the keys to open the lid of the generator.
NOTE: The enclosed keys provided with this unit are
intended for service personnel use only.
Opening the Lid
Two locks secure the lid—one on each side (A in Figure
3-1). Open the protective rubber cap to access the
keyhole, and press down on the lid above the side lock
and unlock the latch to properly open the lid.
Repeat for the other side. The lid may appear stuck if
pressure is not applied from the top.
NOTE: Always verify that the side locks are unlocked
before attempting to lift the lid.
