RISK OF ELECTRO-
CUTION. To connect to a structure's
electrical system in a safe manner,
always have a double-throw transfer
switch installed by a qualified elec-
trician and in compliance with local
ordinances. (When installing a double-
throw transfer switch, a minimum of 10
gauge wiring must be used.)
The electrician should also install a sub-
panel to isolate the circuits you would
want to use during an emergency or
elec tri cal power outage. Your generator
will not be large enough to handle the
load of all the lights, ap pli anc es, TV,
etc. at one time. To select which items
to run during the electrical power out-
age, see Wattage Cal cu la tion section
in this manual.
AccESSOrIES ASSEmBLY
Accessories available for generators
include content shown in Fig 4.
NOTE: Two people are needed for these
installations. Install the wheel kit before
adding gasoline or engine oil to prevent
damage to the engine. If accessories
are being installed after running the
generator, make sure the gas tank is
empty, the fuel shut-off valve is turned
to the OFF position (horizontal to the
ground) and the oil is drained from the
engine
NOTE: After approximately 20 hours of
operation, accessory bolts may loosen.
Tighten them as needed.

Risk from Lifting. The
generator may be too heavy to be lifted
by one person. Obtain assistance from
others before lifting.
1. Carefully tilt the generator so it
rests on the engine side.
2. Install the two stands (KK) at the
lower chassis. Use Bolts (MM) and
nuts (LL) for this step.
