Important Safety Instructions
Liquid-cooled 25 kW Generators
• Do not handle any kind of electrical device while standing
in water, while barefoot, or while hands or feet are wet.
DANGEROUS ELECTRICAL SHOCK MAY RESULT.
• If personnel must stand on metal or concrete while install-
ing, operating, servicing, adjusting or repairing this equip-
ment, place insulative mats over a dry wooden platform.
Work on the equipment only while standing on such insula-
tive mats.
• The National Electrical Code (NEC), Article 250 requires
the frame and external electrically conductive parts of the
generator to be connected to an approved earth ground
and/or grounding rods. This grounding will help prevent
dangerous electrical shock that might be caused by a
ground fault condition in the generator set or by static elec-
tricity. Never disconnect the ground wire.
• Wire gauge sizes of electrical wiring, cables and cord sets
must be adequate to handle the maximum electrical current
(ampacity) to which they will be subjected.
EXPLOSION HAZARDS
• Do not smoke around the generator. Wipe up any fuel or
oil spills immediately. Ensure that no combustible materi-
als are left in the generator compartment, or on or near
the generator, as FIRE or EXPLOSION may result. Keep
the area surrounding the generator clean and free from
debris.
• These generator sets may operate using one of several types
of fuels. All fuel types are potentially FLAMMABLE and/or
EXPLOSIVE and should be handled with care. Comply with
all laws regulating the storage and handling of fuels. Inspect
the unit’s fuel system frequently and correct any leaks
immediately. Fuel supply lines must be properly installed,
purged and leak tested according to applicable fuel-gas
codes before placing this equipment into service.
• Gaseous fluids such as natural gas and liquid propane (LP)
gas are extremely EXPLOSIVE. Natural gas is lighter than
air, and LP gas is heavier than air; install leak detectors
accordingly.
• Before installing or servicing this (and related) equipment,
make sure that all power voltage supplies are positively
turned off at their source. Failure to do so will result in haz-
ardous and possibly fatal electrical shock.
• Connecting this unit to an electrical system normally sup-
plied by an electric utility shall be by means of a transfer
switch so as to isolate the generator electric system from
the electric utility distribution system when the genera-
tor is operating. Failure to isolate the two electric system
power sources from each other by such means will result
in damage to the generator and may also result in injury or
death to utility power workers due to backfeed of electrical
energy.

Section 1 - General Information
Liquid-cooled 25 kW Generators
1.1 GENERATOR
1.3 ATS MODE (AUTOMATIC
This equipment is a liquid-cooled, engine-driven
generator set. The generator is designed to supply
electrical power that operates critical electrical loads
during utility power failure. The unit has been facto-
ry-installed in a weather resistant, all metal enclosure
and is intended for outdoor installation only. Use
this generator as a source of electrical power for the
operation of 120 and/or 240VAC, single-phase loads.
OPERATION)
When this generator, along with a transfer switch, has
been installed and interconnected, a circuit board in
the generator control panel constantly monitors utility
power source voltage. Should that voltage drop below a
preset value, and remain at such a low state for a pre-
set amount of time, the generator cranks and starts.
After the generator starts, the transfer switch transfers
load circuits so the generator can power them.
This model is available and rated as follows:
Model 005031-2: Provides 25,000 watts (25 kW) of single-phase
power.
When utility source voltage has been restored, the
switch re-transfers back to the utility source voltage
and the generator then shuts down.
Please reference the transfer switch manual for spe-
cific information.
If this generator is used to power electrical load
circuits normally powered by a utility power
1.4 GENERATOR AC CONNECTION
source, it is required by code to install a trans-
fer switch. The transfer switch must effectively
isolate the electric system from the utility distri-
bution system when the generator is operating
(NEC 701). Failure to isolate an electrical system
by such means results in damage to the genera-
tor and may also result in injury or even death
to utility power workers due to backfeed of
electrical energy.
SYSTEMS
The generator was shipped from the factory with its
stator AC output leads connected in a single-phase,
3-wire generator AC connection system (Figure 1.1).
The stator assembly in this system consists of a pair
of stationary windings, with two leads brought out of
each winding. Each single winding can supply 120
VAC, 60 Hertz. When the two windings are connected
in series, a 240 VAC, 60 Hertz AC output results.
Typically the two “hot” leads in the circuit are Wires
No. 11 and 44. The “Neutral” leads are the junction
of Wires 22 and 33.
1.2 TRANSFER SWITCH
This generator system is intended to be used with a
matched automatic transfer switch. It may be sup-
plied in either a NEMA 1 enclosure or a NEMA 3R
enclosure. The NEMA 1 enclosure is intended for
indoor use only. The NEMA 3R enclosure is weather
proof and can be used indoors or outdoors. Follow
these rules:
Figure 1.1 - Generator AC Connection System
• Install the transfer switch on a firm, sturdy sup-
porting structure.
• To prevent switch distortion, level the switch if
necessary. This can be done by placing washers
between the switch enclosure and the mounting
surface.
0
NEUTRAL
• Never install the switch where water or any corro-
sive substance might drip onto the enclosure.
• Protect the switch at all times against excessive
moisture, dust, dirt, lint, construction grit and cor-
rosive vapors.
If a transfer switch is not included, one may be pur-
chased separately from an Authorized Dealer.
1.5 MAIN CIRCUIT BREAKER
The generator’s main circuit breaker is included with
the unit as shipped from the factory. The breaker for
each unit is described in Figure 1.2.

1.7.1 LOW OIL PRESSURE SWITCH
1.6 GENERATOR FUEL SYSTEM
This unit has been factory tested and adjusted using
a natural gas fuel system. If propane (LP) gas is pre-
ferred, refer to Section 1.12, Reconfiguring the Fuel
System for LP Vapor.
This switch is normally-closed (N.C.) but is held open
by engine oil pressure during engine running. Should
operating oil pressure drop below about 8-10 psi
(55-68 kPa), the switch contacts close and the engine
shuts down automatically (Figure 1.4).
Fuel pressure for a natural gas set up should be five
inches to 14 inches of water column (0.18 to 0.5
psi) at all load ranges.
Figure 1.4 - Low Oil Pressure Switch
Fuel pressure for an LP vapor set up should be 11
inches to 14 inches of water column (0.4 to 0.5
psi) at all load ranges.
NOTE:
A separate gas line and regulator may be needed
to assure proper gas pressure to the generator.
Improper gas pressure can cause hard starting and
affect engine durability.
Gaseous fuels such as natural and LP (propane)
gas are highly explosive. Even the slightest
‹
1.7.2 HIGH COOLANT TEMPERATURE
SWITCH
spark can ignite such fuels and cause an explo-
sion. No leakage of fuel is permitted. Natural
gas, which is lighter than air, tends to collect in
high areas. LP gas is heavier than air and tends
to settle in low areas.
Normally open (N.O.) thermostatic switch has sens-
ing tip which is immersed in captive coolant. Should
coolant temperature exceed about 230°F (110°C),
the switch contacts close, which causes the engine to
shut down automatically (Figure 1.5).
1.7 ENGINE PROTECTIVE DEVICES
The engine has several safety switches which cause
the engine to automatically shut down under the
following conditions: low oil pressure, high coolant
temperature, engine overspeed, low coolant level or
overcrank (Figure 1.3).
Figure 1.5- High Coolant Temperature Switch
Figure 1.3 - Engine Protective Devices
‹
1.7.3 LOW COOLANT LEVEL SWITCH
Should engine coolant level drop below the level of
the high coolant temperature switch, it is possible for
the engine to overheat without automatic shutdown.
To prevent such overheating without automatic shut
down, the engine has a low coolant level sensor. If the
engine coolant drops too low, the engine automati-
cally shuts down (Figure 1.6).

1.14 COOLANT RECOMMENDATIONS
Use a mixture of half low silicate ethylene glycol base
anti-freeze and half deionized water. Cooling system
capacity is about 8 U.S. quarts (7.6 liters). Use only
deionized water and only low silicate anti-freeze. If
desired, add a high quality rust inhibitor to the rec-
ommended coolant mixture. When adding coolant,
always add the recommended 50-50 mixture.
by means of a transfer switch, so as to isolate
the electric system from the utility distribution
system when the generator is operating. Failure
to isolate the electric system by these means
will result in damage to the generator and may
also result in injury or death to utility workers
due to backfeed of electrical energy.
If an open bottom is used, the engine-generator
must be installed over non-combustible materi-
als and should be located such that combustible
materials are not capable of accumulating under
the generator set.
Do not use any chromate base rust inhibitor
with ethylene glycol base anti-freeze or chro-
miumhydroxide (“green slime”) forms and will
cause overheating. Engines that have been oper-
ated with a chromate base rust inhibitor must be
chemically cleaned before adding ethylene glycol
base anti-freeze. Using any high silicate anti-
freeze boosters or additives will also cause over-
heating. DO NOT use any soluble oil inhibitor for
this equipment.
Only qualified, competent installation contractors
or electricians thoroughly familiar with applicable
codes, standards and regulations should install this
standby electric power system. The installation must
comply strictly with all codes, standards and regula-
tions pertaining to the installation.

SYSTEM
Figure 2.1 shows a schematic diagram of a basic
standby electric system. Both the UTILITY power
supply and the STANDBY GENERATOR output are
connected to an approved transfer switch. The trans-
fer switch is required by electrical code and serves
the following functions:
• A52.1, AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD
FOR CHIMNEYS, FIREPLACES AND VENTING
SYSTEMS, available from the American National
Standard Institute, 1430 Broadway, New York, N.Y.
10018.
• Permits the LOAD circuits to be connected to only
one power supply at a time.
• Prevents electrical backfeed between the generator
2.2 GENERATOR LOCATION
and the UTILITY power circuits.
Install the generator set, in its protective enclosure
outdoors, where adequate cooling and ventilating air
always is available. Consider these factors:
Notice that both the STANDBY and the UTILITY
power supplies to the transfer switch are protected
against overload by a main line circuit breaker.
• Install the unit where air inlet and outlet open-
ings will not become obstructed by leaves, grass,
snow, etc. If prevailing winds will cause blowing or
drifting, consider using a windbreak to protect the
unit.
Figure 2.1 – Basic Standby Electric System
• Install the generator on high ground where water
levels will not rise and endanger it.
• Allow sufficient room on all sides of the generator
for maintenance and servicing. A required mini-
mum allowance of space to any solid structure is
three feet. Five feet allowance of space is recom-
mended.
• Where strong prevailing winds blow from one
direction, face the generator air inlet openings into
the prevailing winds.
• Install the generator as close as possible to the
transfer switch. This reduces the length of wiring
and conduit.
• Install the generator as close as possible to
the fuel supply, to reduce the length of piping.
HOWEVER, REMEMBER THAT LAWS OR CODES
MAY REGULATE THE DISTANCE.
NOTE:
The manufacturer recommends the use of a
Generac Power Systems transfer switch in con-
junction with this generator.

Liquid-cooled 25 kW Generators
Figure 2.2 – Generator Grounding Lug (typical)
2.5 EMERGENCY CIRCUIT ISOLATION
METHOD
This prevents overloading the generator by keeping
electrical loads below the wattage/amperage capac-
ity of the generator. If the generator is powering only
critical loads, within its wattage/amperage capac-
ity, during utility power outages, consider using the
emergency circuit isolation method.
Critical electrical loads are grouped together and
wired into a separate “Emergency Distribution Panel.”
The generator only supplies electrical circuits con-
nected to the emergency distribution panel during
utility power outages. Load circuits powered by that
panel must be within the wattage/amperage capacity
of the generator set. The transfer switch must meet
the following requirements:
2.8 GENERATOR AC NEUTRAL
• It must have an ampere rating equal to the total
amperage rating of the emergency distribution
panel circuit.
• It must be installed between the building’s main
distribution panel and the emergency distribution
panel.
CONNECTIONS
The manufacturer uses an UNGROUNDED AC neu-
tral. Grounding is recommended only at the main
service entrance. If the neutral wire is grounded and
one of the phase loads becomes grounded, the exces-
sive current opens the load circuit breaker or col-
lapses the generator field. The actual result depends
on the electrical characteristics of the particular
installed generator.
2.6 TOTAL CIRCUIT ISOLATION
METHOD
When a generator capable of powering all electri-
cal loads in the circuit is to be installed, the “Total
Circuit Isolation Method” may be used. The following
apply to the transfer switch in this type of system.
Failure to connect the generator neutral proper-
ly will result in unbalanced line-to-neutral volt-
ages. Resulting high voltages will cause equip-
ment damage.
• Ampere rating of the transfer switch must equal
the ampere rating of the normal incoming utility
service.
• The transfer switch is installed between the util-
ity service entrance and the building distribution
panel.
2.9 USING A “GTS” TRANSFER
SWITCH
When required, the pre-packaged standby generator
can be installed with a “GTS” type engineered auto-
matic transfer switch.
2.7 GROUNDING THE GENERATOR
The National Electrical Code requires the frame and
external electrically conductive parts of this equip-
ment to be properly connected to an approved earth
ground and/or grounding rods. For that purpose, a
GROUND LUG (Figure 2.2) is provided on the gen-
erator mounting base. Consult a qualified electrician
for grounding requirements in the area. Grounding
procedures must meet local regulations.
In this application, the GTS transfer switch is
responsible for utility sensing, weekly exercising, and
load transferring.
Position two of the eight-position DIP switch is used
to turn over this control to the GTS.
In order for the battery charger to work, it is neces-
sary to provide a fused 240 VAC utility source to the
N1 and N2 terminals in the control panel.
DANGER
Do not connect the ground wire to any pipe
Pos2 ON — GTS Application

• The control board will NOT monitor utility.
• The control board will NOT perform a weekly exer-
cise. (The five red LEDs will flash one at a time in
this mode.)
– FIRE or an EXPLOSION may result.
Proper grounding helps protect personnel against elec-
trical shock in the event of a ground fault condition

• The control board WILL monitor all engine condi-
tions and shut down on all the faults listed in this
document.
Do not dispose of the battery in a fire. The bat-
tery is capable of exploding.
Pos2 OFF — ATS Application
• The control board will perform all of the automatic
features listed in this document.
• The two-wire start connections, wires 178-183,
should NOT be connected.
Do not open or mutilate the battery. Released

and eyes.
The battery represents a risk of high short circuit
current. When working on the battery, always
remove watches, rings or other metal objects,
and only use tools that have insulated handles.
NOTE:
If the generator is installed in conjunction with an
engineered GTS type engineered transfer switch,
refer to the applicable transfer switch manual for
exact operating parameters and timing sequenc-
es.

2.10.1 VENTED BATTERIES
2.10 BATTERY INSTALLATION
DANGER
The electrolyte is a dilute sulfuric acid that is
harmful to the skin and eyes. It is electrically
conductive and corrosive. The following proce-
dures are to be observed:
Standby generators installed with automatic
• Wear full eye protection and protective clothing,
• Where electrolyte contacts the skin, wash it off
immediately with water,
• Where electrolyte contacts the eyes, flush thor-
oughly and immediately with water and seek
medical attention, and
• Spilled electrolyte is to be washed down with an
acid-neutralizing agent. A common practice is to
use a solution of one pound (500 grams) bicarbon-
ate of soda to one gallon (4 liters) of water. The
bicarbonate of soda solution is to be added until
the evidence of reaction (foaming) has ceased. The
resulting liquid is to be flushed with water and the
area dried.
transfer switches will crank and start automati-
cally when NORMAL (UTILITY) source voltage is
removed or is below an acceptable preset level.
To prevent such automatic start-up and pos-
sible injury to personnel, do not connect battery
cables until certain that normal source voltage
at the transfer switch is correct; the generator
main line circuit breaker is switched to OFF; the
AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch on the control con-
sole is switched to OFF; the 15A and 5A fuses
have been removed from the control console;
utility fed supply to battery charger (terminals
N1 and N2) is removed; and the system is ready
to be placed into operation. Ensure that the 5A
and 15A fuses in the control panel are removed
when connecting or disconnecting battery
cables.
Lead acid batteries present a risk of fire because
they generate hydrogen gas. The following pro-
cedure are to be followed:
Storage batteries give off explosive hydrogen
• DO NOT SMOKE when near batteries,
gas. This gas can form an explosive mixture
• DO NOT cause flame or spark in battery area, and
• Discharge static electricity from body before touch-
ing batteries by first touching a grounded metal
surface.
Servicing of batteries is to be performed or super-
vised by personnel knowledgeable of batteries and
the required precautions. Keep unauthorized person-
nel away from batteries.
around the battery for several hours after charg-
ing. The slightest spark can ignite the gas and
cause an explosion. Such an explosion can shat-
ter the battery and cause blindness or other
injury. Any area that houses a storage battery
must be properly ventilated. Do not allow smok-
ing, open flame, sparks or any spark producing
tools or equipment near the battery.
The recommended battery is Group 26, 12VDC, 550
CCA/75 AH minimum. All batteries must be at 100
percent state-of-charge before they are installed on
the generator.
Battery electrolyte fluid is an extremely corro-
sive sulfuric acid solution that can cause severe
burns. Do not permit fluid to contact eyes, skin,
clothing, painted surfaces, etc. Wear protective
goggles, protective clothing and gloves when
handling a battery. If fluid is spilled, flush the
affected area immediately with clear water.

2.11.5 ENGINE COOLANT
2.11 PREPARATION BEFORE START-UP
The instructions in this section assume that the
standby generator has been properly installed, ser-
viced, tested, adjusted and otherwise prepared for
use by a competent, qualified installation contractor.
Be sure to read the “Safety Rules” on pages 2 and 3,
as well as all other safety information in this manual,
before attempting to operate this (and related) equip-
ment.
Have the engine cooling system properly filled with
the recommended coolant mixture. Check the system
for leaks and other problems. See “Specifications”
and “Coolant”.
‹
2.11.6 BELT TENSION
Check-the engine-fan belt tension and condition prior
to placing the unit into service and at recommended
intervals. Belt tension is correct when a force of
approximately 22 pounds (10 kg), applied midway
between pulleys, deflects the belt about 3/8- to 5/8-
inches (10 to 16 mm).
‹
2.11.1 PRIOR TO INITIAL START-UP
Prior to initially starting the generator, it must
be properly prepared for use. Any attempt to
crank or start the engine before it has been
properly serviced with the recommended types
and quantities of engine fluids (oil, coolant, fuel,
etc.) may result in an engine failure.
‹
2.11.7 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Make sure the generator is properly connected to an
approved earth ground and/or ground rod.
Make sure the generator battery is fully charged,
properly installed and interconnected, and ready for
use.
Before starting the generator for the first time, the
installer must complete the following procedures. For
follow-up maintenance information and/or service
intervals, please refer to Section 4, “Maintenance.”
Check to ensure that there are no loose electrical con-
nections. Restrain any loose wires to keep them clear
of any moving generator set components.
‹
2.11.2 TRANSFER SWITCH
3.1 GTS TRANSFER SWITCH
If this generator is used to supply power to any elec-
trical system normally powered by an electric utility,
the National Electrical Code requires that a transfer
switch be installed. The transfer switch prevents elec-
trical backfeed between two different electrical sys-
tems, (for additional information, see the applicable
transfer switch manual for this unit). The transfer
switch, as well as the generator and other standby
components, must be properly located and mounted
in strict compliance with applicable codes, standards
and regulations.
When required, the pre-packaged standby genera-
tor can be installed with a “GTS” engineered type
automatic transfer switch. Set DIP switch on engine
control PCB to GTS-type (see Section 3.8).
When using a GTS type transfer switch, it controls
automatic operation and automatic transfer as fol-
lows:
• Solid state circuits in the transfer switch monitor
utility power source voltage.
• When utility source voltage drops below a pre-set
level, transfer switch action signals the genera-
tor to start. The engine then cranks and starts as
controlled by the pre-packaged generator’s Control
Module circuit board.
‹
2.11.3 FUEL SYSTEM
Make sure the fuel supply system to the generator (a)
delivers the correct fuel at the correct pressure and
volume and, (b) is properly purged and leak tested
according to code. No fuel leakage is permitted.

Section 3 - Operation
Liquid-cooled 25 kW Generators
• After the engine starts and when the generator
AC output voltage and frequency have reached a
pre-set value, transfer switch circuits signal the
transfer switch main contacts to actuate to the
“Standby” power source side. Generator AC output
then powers load circuits.
• When the utility power source voltage is restored
above a pre-set level, transfer switch circuits signal
the switch main contacts to move back to their util-
ity power source side.
• Following re-transfer back to the utility power
source side, transfer switch circuit board action
signals the generator to stop. Engine then shuts
down.

3.2.3 15 AMP FUSE
‹
3.2.5 SET EXERCISE TIME SWITCH
This fuse protects the control console’s DC control
circuit against electrical overload and is located inside
the control panel. If the fuse has melted open because
of an overload, engine cranking and startup cannot
occur. If the fuse needs to be replaced, use only an
identical 15-amp replacement fuse (type ATO).
This switch allows programming the generator to
start and exercise automatically. “See Weekly Exercise
Cycle” (see Figure 3.3 and Section 3.7).
‹
3.2.6 SYSTEM READY LED
The System Ready LED (green) has two main pur-
poses. First, the LED will be ON when the AUTO/
OFF/MANUAL switch is in the AUTO position, utility
is present, and there are no system alarms. This ON
state indicates the system is fully ready for automatic
operation.
‹
3.2.4 5 AMP FUSE
This fuse protects the battery charger against electri-
cal overload and is located inside the control panel.
If the fuse needs to be replaced, use only an identical
5-amp replacement fuse (type ATO).
The system ready LED will be OFF when the switch
is in the MANUAL or OFF positions.
NOTE:
This fuse will not remove the + battery input
power from the PCB when it opens. This means
the exercise timer will not be reset.
The system ready LED is also used to indicate the
presence of utility sensing at the PCB when the switch
is either in the AUTO or MANUAL modes. The LED
will flash at the rate of 1/2 second on, 1/2 second off
if the utility sensing level is below the transfer back
threshold.

Figure 3.2 — Engine Governor Adjustment
3.3 MANUAL TRANSFER AND
START-UP
To transfer electrical loads to the Standby
(EMERGENCY) power source side and start the
engine manually, refer to the Owner’s Manual of the
particular transfer switch.
3.4 ENGINE GOVERNOR GAIN
ADJUSTMENTS
Engine speed governing is also controlled by the
engine control board. The engine governor has been
set by the factory during final testing of the generator
and should not be adjusted.
If, however, adjustments are necessary, the following
procedure should be followed (Figure 3.2 and Section
3.8):
1. Move DIP switch 8 to the TEST mode (OFF posi-
tion).
2. Set all three potentiometers (pots) fully counter-
clockwise.
3. Under no load condition, increase the GAIN pot
as much as possible without causing instability.
4. Apply 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 and full load to the unit.
Decrease the GAIN pot if there is instability at any
load point.
5. Under full load condition, increase the stability
pot until the unit returns to 60 Hertz (or 50 Hertz
in 50 Hertz applications).
3.5 MANUAL RETRANSFER AND
SHUTDOWN
When utility power source voltage has been restored,
electrical loads may be transferred back to that
source and the generator can be shut down as fol-
lows:
6. Reduce load to 3/4, 1/2, 1/4 and no load. Decrease
the stability pot if there is instability at any load
point.
7. Adjust differential pot to make the recovery to
load changes even faster and minimize load
change undershoot and overshoot. If it is set too
high, it may introduce oscillations at some load.
It can be set to zero (full CCW) if a small amount
causes oscillations at some load.
• Verify that utility power supply voltage to the trans-
fer switch has been positively turned Off, using
whatever means provided (such as utility main line
circuit breaker).
• Set the generator’s main circuit breaker to its Off
or Open position.
• Let the generator engine run at no-load for a few
minutes, to stabilize internal unit temperatures.
• On the generator console, set the Auto/Off/ Manual
switch to Off. Wait for engine to come to a complete
stop.
8. Leave DIP switch 8 in TEST mode.
• For transfer to utility position, refer to the Owner’s
Manual of the particular transfer switch.
• Turn on the utility power supply to the transfer
switch, using whatever means provided (such as a
utility main line circuit breaker). The utility power
source now powers the loads.

Section 3 - Operation
Liquid-cooled 25 kW Generators
If a failure occurs while running in this mode, the
five red LEDs will stop flashing, the individual fault
LED will turn on and the engine will shut down. Once
the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch has been switched to
OFF, the individual fault LED will turn OFF and the
five red LEDs will begin flashing to show exercise has
still not been set.
3.6 AUTOMATIC OPERATION
To set the system for fully automatic operation, pro-
ceed as follows:
• Check that load circuits are connected to the
utility power supply.
• Set the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to its AUTO
position.
• Set the generator main circuit breaker to its ON or
CLOSED position.
3.8 CONTROL BOARD DIP SWITCH
SETTINGS
Located on the control board is an eight position DIP
switch (see Figure 3.2). The eight different switches,
are used to configure the control board for the spe-
cific engine and governor being used and are pre-set
at the factory.
3.7 WEEKLY EXERCISE CYCLE
The engine control board will start and run the gen-
erator once every seven days for approximately 12
minutes. If utility should fail during this exercise
period, the engine control board will transfer the load
to the generator output and continue to run until util-
ity returns.
On the day, and at the time of day chosen for the
generator to exercise, set the weekly exercise cycle
as follows:
If the DIP switch settings are not set correctly,
the generator may not start or operate correctly.
1. Place the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch in the
AUTO position (Figure 3.3).
240 VAC can be present within the control panel.
2. Press and hold the “Set Exercise Time” switch for
five seconds, then release.
If it is necessary to select an alternate switch posi-
tion, move the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to the
OFF position. Remove the 15 amp fuse in the genera-
tor control panel. Move the DIP switch position that
needs to be changed to its new position. Wait five
seconds, then re-install the 15 amp fuse.
At this time all five red LEDs will flash for approxi-
mately 10 seconds, then the engine will start and run
for it’s 12 minute exercise period, then shut down.
The generator will now start and run each week at
the same time.
The ON position is marked on the switch and is
shown in Figure 3.2.

speed recovery.
A. Adjust the UNDERFREQUENCY ADJUST pot
CCW to reduce load during engine recovery.
B. For flat regulation (no voltage decrease as fre-
quency drops) set the UNDERFREQUENCY
ADJUST pot fully CW.
C. To obtain a constant voltage regulation as fre-
quency decreases, set the UNDERFREQUENCY
ADJUST pot fully CCW.
10. With the electrical load still applied, check the
REGULATOR LED for flashing. If the LED is
flashing, adjust the STABILITY pot until the flash-
ing stops.
11. If better response is needed, adjust the GAIN pot
clockwise (CW) as needed. Then (if needed) cor-
rect for stability by adjusting the STABILITY pot.
12. Turn OFF the electrical loads.

4.9 MISCELLANEOUS MAINTENANCE
‹
4.9.1 CLEANING THE GENERATOR
Keep the generator as clean and as dry as possible.
Dirt and moisture that accumulates on internal gen-
erator windings have an adverse effect on insulation
resistance.
DANGER
Periodically clean generator exterior surfaces. A soft
brush may be used to loosen caked on dirt. Use a
vacuum system or dry, low pressure air to remove
any accumulations of dirt. The generator is housed
inside an all-weather enclosure, clean the enclosure
with a soft, damp cloth or sponge and water.
Storage batteries give off explosive hydrogen
gas. This gas can form an explosive mixture
around the battery for several hours after charg-
ing. The slightest spark can ignite the gas and
cause an explosion. Such an explosion can shat-
ter the battery and cause blindness or other
injury. Any area that houses a storage battery
must be properly ventilated. Do not allow smok-
ing, open flame, sparks or any spark producing
tools or equipment near the battery.
Once each year have the generator cleaned and
inspected by an Authorized Service Dealer. That
dealer will use dry, low pressure air to clean internal
windings. Parts inside the control console should be
cleaned and inspected at this time as well.
Battery electrolyte fluid is an extremely corro-
sive sulfuric acid solution that can cause severe
Finally, have the insulation resistance of stator and
rotor windings checked. If insulation resistances are
excessively low, the generator may require drying.
burns. Do not permit fluid to contact eyes, skin,
clothing, painted surfaces, etc. Wear protective
goggles, protective clothing and gloves when
handling a battery. If fluid is spilled, flush the
affected area immediately with clear water.
‹
4.9.2 BATTERY
All lead-acid storage batteries discharge when not in
use. Refer to specific instructions and warnings that
accompany the battery. If such information is not
available, observe the following precautions when
handling a battery:
Do not use any jumper cables or booster battery
to crank and start the generator engine. If the
battery has completely discharged, remove it
from the generator for recharging.
• DO NOT use jumper cables and a booster battery
to crank or start the generator engine.
• DO NOT recharge a weak battery while it is
installed in the generator. Remove battery from
generator and recharge in a well-ventilated area,
away from fuel vapors, sparks, heat or flames.
• Battery electrolyte fluid is an extremely caustic
sulfuric solution that can cause severe burns. DO
NOT permit fluid to contact eyes, skin, clothing,
painted surfaces, wiring insulation, etc. If any bat-
tery fluid is spilled, flush the affected area with
clear water immediately.
Be sure the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch is set to
the OFF position, before connecting the battery
cables. If the switch is set to AUTO or MANUAL,
the generator can crank and start as soon as the
battery cables are connected.
Be sure the utility power supply to the battery
charger is turned off, or sparking may occur at
the battery posts as the cables are attached and
cause an explosion.

4.10 SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
The following is a recommended maintenance schedule for small standby and residential generator sets. The
established intervals in the schedule are the maximum recommended when the unit is used in an average service
application. They will need to be decreased (performed more frequently) if the unit is used in a severe applica-
tion. Use the unit hour meter or calendar time, whichever occurs first, from the previous maintenance interval to
determine the next required maintenance interval.
Service Maintenance Interval Information:
The various service maintenance intervals are designated by interval numbers as follows:
1 An early inspection of the generator set to insure it is ready to operate when required and to identify any poten-
tial problem areas.
Performed monthly this requires approximately .5 man-hours per unit to complete.
This inspection may be performed by the end user providing the following safety steps are taken to prevent
the engine from starting automatically without warning:
To prevent injury, perform the following steps in the order indicated before starting any maintenance:
•
Disable the generator set from starting and/or connecting to the load by setting the control panel
AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to the OFF position.
•
•
•
Remove the 5 amp and 15 amp control panel fuses.
Turn off the battery charger (turn OFF utility supply to ATS).
Remove the negative battery cable.
The battery charger must be turned off BEFORE removing the battery cable to prevent an over current condition
from burning out sensitive control panel components and circuits.
Following all maintenance, reverse these steps to insure the unit is returned to standby setup for normal
operation when required.
2 A break-in service inspection of the generator set to insure it is ready to operate and carry the load when
required, and to identify any potential problem areas.
Performed ONLY ONCE following the first three months of operation after purchase of the unit and requires
approximately 2.5 man-hours per unit to complete.
This inspection contains some maintenance tasks which require special tools, equipment, and/or knowledge
to accomplish and should be performed only by an Authorized Service Dealer.
3 An operational inspection of the generator set to insure it is ready to operate and carry the load when required,
and to identify any potential problem areas.
Performed semi-annually this requires approximately 1.5 man-hours per unit to complete.
This inspection contains some maintenance tasks which require special tools, equipment, and/or knowledge
to accomplish and should be performed only by an Authorized Service Dealer.
4 A mid-level inspection of the generator set to insure it is ready to operate and carry the load when required,
and to identify any potential problem areas.
Performed annually this requires approximately 4.0 man-hours per unit to complete.

CALIFORNIA EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and Generac Power Systems, Inc. (Generac) are pleased to explain the Emission
Control System Warranty on your new engine.* In California, new utility, and lawn and garden equipment engines must be
designed, built and equipped to meet the state’s stringent anti-smog standards. Generac will warrant the emission control
system on your engine for the periods of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect, unapproved modifica-
tion or improper maintenance of your engine.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor, ignition system and exhaust system. Generac will
repair your engine at no cost to you for diagnosis, replacement parts and labor, should a warrantable condition occur.
MANUFACTURER’S EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY COVERAGE:
Emissions control systems on 1995 and later model year engines are warranted for two years as hereinafter noted. If, dur-
ing such warranty period, any emission-related component or system on your engine is found to be defective in materials or
workmanship, repairs or replacement will be performed by a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Dealer.
PURCHASER’S/OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the engine purchaser/owner, you are responsible for the completion of all required maintenance as listed in your factory
supplied Owner’s Manual. For warranty purposes, Generac recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance
on your engine. However, Generac cannot deny warranty solely due to the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the
completion of all scheduled maintenance.
As the engine purchaser/owner, you should, however, be aware that Generac may deny any and/or all warranty coverage or
responsibility if your engine, or a part/component thereof, has failed due to abuse, neglect , improper maintenance or unap-
proved modifications, or the use of counterfeit and/or “grey market” parts not made, supplied or approved by Generac.
You are responsible for presenting your engine to a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Dealer as soon as a problem
occurs. The warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
Warranty service can be arranged by contacting either your selling dealer or a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Dealer.
To locate the Generac Authorized Warranty Service Dealer nearest you, call our toll-free number:
1-800-333-1322
IMPORTANT NOTE: This warranty statement explains your rights and obligations under the Emission Control System
Warranty (ECS Warranty), which is provided to you by Generac pursuant to California law. See also the “Generac Power
Systems, Inc., Two Year Limited Warranty” which is enclosed herewith on a separate sheet, also provided to you by Generac.
The ECS Warranty applies only to the emission control system of your new engine. If there is any conflict in terms between
the ECS Warranty and the Generac Warranty, the ECS Warranty shall apply except in circumstances where the Generac
Warranty may provide a longer warranty period. Both the ECS Warranty and the Generac Warranty describe important rights
and obligations with respect to your new engine.
Warranty service can be performed only by a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Dealer. When requesting warranty ser-
vice, evidence must be presented showing the date of the sale to the original purchaser/owner.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact Generac at the fol-
lowing address:

Section 9 – Warranty
Liquid-cooled 25 kW Generators
EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY
Emission Control System Warranty (ECS Warranty) for 1995 and later model year engines:
(a) Applicability: This warranty shall apply to 1995 and later model year engines. The ECS Warranty Period shall begin on the
date the new engine or equipment is purchased by/delivered to its original, end-use purchaser/owner and shall continue
for 24 consecutive months thereafter.
(b) General Emissions Warranty Coverage: Generac warrants to the original, end-use purchaser/owner of the new engine or
equipment and to each subsequent purchaser/owner that each of its engines is ...
(1) Designed, built and equipped so as to conform with all applicable regulations adopted by the CARB pursuant to its
authority, and
(2) Free from defects in materials and workmanship which, at any time during the ECS Warranty Period, may cause a
warranted emissions-related part to fail to be identical in all material respects to the part as described in the engine
manufacturer’s application for certification.
(c) The ECS Warranty only pertains to emissions-related parts on your engine, as follows:
(1) Any warranted, emissions-related parts that are not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Owner’s
Manual shall be warranted for the ECS Warranty Period. If any such part fails during the ECS Warranty Period, it shall
be repaired or replaced by Generac according to Subsection (4) below. Any such part repaired or replaced under the
ECS Warranty shall be warranted for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period.
(2) Any warranted, emissions-related part that is scheduled only for regular inspection as specified in the Owner’s Manual
shall be warranted for the ECS Warranty Period. A statement in such written instructions to the effect of “repair or
replace as necessary” shall not reduce the ECS Warranty Period. Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS
Warranty shall be warranted for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period.
(3) Any warranted, emissions-related part that is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Owner’s
Manual shall be warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part. If the part
fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the part shall be repaired or replaced by Generac according to Subsection
(4) below. Any such emissions-related part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted for the
remainder of the ECS Warranty Period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for such emissions-related part.
(4) Repair or replacement of any warranted, emissions-related part under this ECS Warranty shall be performed at no
charge to the owner at a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Dealer.
(5) When the engine is inspected by a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Dealer, the owner shall not be held responsible
for diagnostic costs if the repair is deemed warrantable.
(6) Generac shall be liable for damages to other original engine components or approved modifications proximately caused
by a failure under warranty of any emission-related part covered by the ECS Warranty.
(7) Throughout the ECS Warranty Period, Generac shall maintain a supply of warranted emission-related parts sufficient
to meet the expected demand for such emission-related parts.
(8) Any Generac authorized and approved emission-related replacement part may be used in the performance of any ECS
Warranty maintenance or repairs and will be provided without charge to the owner. Such use shall not reduce Generac
ECS Warranty obligations.
(9) Unapproved, add-on, modified, counterfeit and/or “grey market” parts may not be used to modify or repair a Generac
