3-wire 240 volt receptacle. A 4-wire receptacle (two

hot, one ground, and one neutral) has been provided

on the control panel for use in temporary power ap-

plications requiring 120/240 volt power. Consult a

licensed electrician for wiring the TemPower plug and

connecting it as temporary service.

To connect these units directly to an un-powered,

isolated construction site TemPower panel, have

your electrician connect to the control panel using a

120/240 volt, 4-wire twist-lock plug (L14-30P). The

use of locking receptacles and locking plugs provides

the convenience of quick disconnect, for moving,

while allowing non electrical workers to safely recon-

nect the power. In addition they prevent the plug

from being accidentally removed by bumping or

vibration.

2. If the generator set is be connected to existing

distribution system a fully isolated manual transfer

switch must be installed. The transfer switch pre-

vents damage to the generator and other circuit

components if main line power is restored while the

generator is connected. Installing a transfer switch

also permits the use of normal fusing.

3. Many homes and construction sites are wired

for at least 60 to 100 Amp entrance service, much

greater than the capacity of these portable genera-

tors. When installing the generator at these sites, a

secondary emergency distribution panel may have to

be installed, such as the Emergency Transfer/Service

(ET/S) system available through your WINCO dealer.

The emergency distribution panel must be installed

by a licensed electrician according to all applicable

codes. The electrician will move the critical circuits

to be powered during the outage to the emergency

panel. Keep in mind only a limited amount of amper-

age is available from the generator set. Some circuit

breakers may still have to be turned off to prevent an

overload on the generator during the initial start up.

See the nameplate on your generator for the amper-

age capabilities of your unit.

CAUTION: EQUIPMENT DAMAGE

Failure to properly limit and balance the load ap-

plied to the generator will cause the generator to

produce low voltage and may damage the engine

generator set. It may also cause severe damage to

the loads connected to the generator at that time. Im-

proper loading of the generator set constitutes abuse

and will not be covered by warranty.

ENGINE CARE

If major engine service or repair is required contact

an authorized engine service center. The manufac-

turer of these engines has established an excellent

world-wide engine service organization. Engine ser-

vice is very likely available from a nearby authorized

dealer or distributor. Check the yellow pages of your

local telephone directory under “Engines-Gasoline”

for the closest engine repair center or ask the dealer

from whom you purchased the power plant.

1. Change the oil after the ﬁ rst month or 20 hours

of operation and every 100 hours thereafter under

normal operating conditions. Change engine oil

every 25 hours of operation if the engine is operated

under heavy load, or in high ambient temperatures.

a. Remove oil drain plug at base of the engine and

drain the oil with the engine warm.

b. Replace oil drain plug.

c. Remove oil ﬁ ller plug and reﬁ ll with new oil.

Refer to the table in the engine manual for the

proper grade of oil based on your operating tem

perature.

d. Replace ﬁ ller plug.

2. Checking the Oil Level: The oil level must al-

ways be checked before the engine is started. Take

care to remove any dirt or debris from around the

oil ﬁ ll plug before removing. Be sure the oil level is

maintained. Fill to the “FULL” mark on the dipstick.

3. Cartridge Air Cleaner: Remove and clean

cartridge every 3 months or after every 50 hours,

whichever occurs ﬁ rst. Service more often if neces-

sary. Clean by tapping gently on ﬂ at surface. If very

dirty, replace the cartridge using only original equip-

ment parts available at any engine service center.

Do not use petroleum solvents, such as kerosene, to

attempt to clean the cartridge. They may cause

deterioration of the cartridge. DO NOT OIL CAR-

TRIDGE. DO NOT USE PRESSURIZED AIR TO

CLEAN OR DRY CARTRIDGE.

4. Dual Element Air Cleaner: Clean and re-oil

foam pre-cleaner at 3 month intervals or every 50

hours, whichever occurs ﬁ rst. Service more often

under dusty conditions.

a. Loosen screws and remove cover and air cleaner

assembly from base.

b. Remove foam pre-cleaner by sliding it off the

paper cartridge.

c. Wash foam pre-cleaner in liquid detergent and

water

d. Wrap foam pre-cleaner in cloth and squeeze dry.

e. Saturate foam pre-cleaner in engine oil. Squeeze

to remove excess oil.

f. Install foam pre-cleaner over paper cartridge.
