The auxiliary shutdown switch is not to be used to power down the unit under normal operating circumstances. Doing so will result in equipment damage. (000399) All generators are equipped with an external means of shutting down the generator which complies with the lat- est NEC code requirement. The primary generator shut- down sequence is described in Control Panel Startup/ Testing. See Figure 2-11. An auxiliary shutdown switch (A) is located on the exterior of the generator back panel. This switch shuts down the generator and disables restarts.

Remove intake side panel as directed in Intake Side Panel Removal, and then remove access panel. Connect wires according to diagram and tables. 1. Remove main AC / control wiring knock-out plugs from back of generator. 2. Using appropriate wiring hole, install conduit and main AC and control wires between generator and transfer switch. 3. Close unused hole with a NEMA 3R rated plug (field-supplied). NOTE: All conductors must be rated for minimum 300V. Control system interconnections may consist of N1, N2, and T1, and leads 23 and 194.All of the generator con- trol wiring circuits are Class 1 remote control or signaling circuits. Class 1 circuits are required to be installed in accordance with Part 1 of NEC Article 300 and with a NEC recognized Chapter 3 wiring method. The use of low voltage cables for the generator control circuit wiring is prohibited. See instruction manual of the specific engine generator for wiring connection details. Recom- mended wire gauge sizes for this wiring depends on wire length, as recommended in Table 6-3. Exception: Conductors of AC and DC circuits, rated 1000 volts nominal or less, shall be permitted to occupy the same equipment, cable, or conduit. All conductors shall have an insulation rating equal to at least the maxi- mum circuit voltage applied to any conductor within the equipment, cable, or conduit. See NEC 300.3(C)(1). 4. See Figure 6-1. Strip insulation from wire ends. Do not remove excessive insulation. Route sense wires through supplied wire tie (C1), and connect to sense wire terminal block (B). Push down on spring loaded connection point with a flat head screwdriver, insert wire, and release. 5. Using the same process, route control wires through second supplied wire tie(C2), and connect to control wire terminal block(A). 6. When all wires are securely connected to correct terminals, tighten wire ties and clip excess length. NOTE: Only bare wire should be inserted into each ter- minal. Do not insert any wire insulation into terminals. NOTE: Damage caused by mis-wiring of the intercon- nect wires is not warrantable.

This test prevents damage if installer incorrectly connected AC utility power sense wires into the DC terminal block. The controller will display a warning message and lock out the generator if utility voltage is detected at the DC terminal block, preventing damage to the controller. Power to con- troller must be removed to clear this warning. Utility voltage must be turned on and present at the N1 and N2 terminals inside the generator control panel for this test to be performed and pass. NOTE: All appropriate panels must be in place during any operation of generator. This includes operation by a servicing technician, while conducting troubleshooting procedures. Before starting, complete the following: 1. Verify generator is OFF. 2. Set generator MLC13 (generator disconnect) to OFF (OPEN). 3. Turn OFF all breakers to be supplied by generator. 4. Verify auxiliary shutdown switch(es) are CLOSED M. 5. Check engine crankcase oil level and, if necessary, fill to oil dipstick FULL mark with recommended oil. Do not overfill. 6. Inspect fuel supply. Gaseous fuel lines must have been correctly purged and leak tested in accor- dance with applicable fuel-gas codes.All fuel shut- off valves in the fuel supply lines must be open. During initial startup only, generator may exceed normal number of start attempts and experience an "OVER- CRANK'fault. This is due to accumulated air in the fuel system during installation. Reset control board by press- ing OFF mode button and ENTER button, and restart up to two more times if necessary.

Accessory Description Cold Weather Accessories*— • Battery Pad Warmer • Recommended in areas where temperatures fall below 0 OF(-18 °C). (Not necessary for use with AGM-style batteries) • Oil Warmer • Recommended in areas where temperatures fall below 0 OF (-18 °C). • Breather Warmer • Recommended in areas where heavy icing occurs. *each sold separately Scheduled Maintenance Kit Provides all items necessary to perform complete routine maintenance on a generator, along with oil recommendations (oil not included). Fascia Base Wrap The fascia base wrap snaps together around the bottom of the new air-cooled generators. This offers a sleek, contoured appearance as well as offering pro- tection from rodents and insects by covering lifting holes located in the base. Requires use of the mounting pad shipped with the generator. Touch-Up Paint Kit If the generator enclosure is scratched or damaged, it is important to touch-up the paint to protect from future corrosion. The touch-up paint kit includes the necessary paint to correctly maintain or touch-up a generator enclosure. Extended Warranty Coverage Extend generator warranty coverage by purchasing extended warranty cover- age. Covers both parts and labor. Extended coverage can be purchased within 12 months of end-users purchase date. This extended coverage is applicable to registered units,and end-user proof of purchase must be available upon request. Available for Generac®and Guardian®products. Not available for CorepowerTm, PowerPact®, or EcoGenTm products, or all international purchases. WI-Fi LP Tank Fuel Level Monitor The WI-Fi enabled LP tank fuel level monitor provides constant monitoring of the connected LP fuel tank. Monitoring the LP tank's fuel level is an important step in verifying the generator is ready to run during an unexpected power fail- ure. Status alerts are available through a free application to notify users when the LP tank needs a refill. Mobile Link®Cellular Accessories Mobile Link family of Cellular Accessories allow users to monitor generator status from anywhere in the world, using a smartphone, tablet, or PC. Easily access information such as the current operating status and maintenance alerts. Users can connect an account with an authorized service dealer for fast, friendly, and proactive service. With Mobile Link, users are taken care of before the next power outage. Smart Management Module Smart Management Modules(SMM's)are used to optimize the performance of (50 and 100 amps) a standby generator. They manage large electrical loads upon startup, and shed them to aid in recovery when overloaded. In many cases, using SMM's can reduce the overall size and cost of the system. Ultrasonic Cleaning Solution 1 gal (3.8 L) of ultra concentrated cleaning solution for metal and plastic sur- faces. Makes 6 gal (22.7 L)of cleaning solution. All Surface Protectant All surface protectant for vinyl, rubber, and plastics. Creates a barrier to seal and protect surfaces from water and UV rays while renewing the look of the surface.
