LP/NG FUEL CONVERSION
These generator sets are factory tested on Natural
Gas and will require no modifications for normal
operation on Natural Gas. The carburetion system
has been preset and anti-tamper plugs have been
installed in the carburetor as required by the EPA.
To make a fuel conversion you will have to first re-
move the cover panel on the left side of the genera-
tor set, directly above the fuel inlet. Locate the fuel
line to the engine, connected to the fuel outlet tee. It
should be connected to the NG port of the fuel outlet
tee. If you are going to operate on LP you will need
to move the fuel line from the NG port to the LP port
on the fuel outlet tee. These two ports have different
orifice inserts installed in them, which provide proper
operation with no further adjustments.
When moving the fuel line from one port to the other
be sure not to kink or bend the line. Use as large a
sweeping curve as possible and never shorten the
fuel line. For proper operation the fuel line must stay
the same length as it was shipped.
