This unit uses a LP vapor withdrawal system only. This type of
system uses the vapors formed above the liquid fuel in the storage
tank.
Recommended fuels should have a Btu content of at least 2,520
Btus per cubic foot for LP gas. Ask the fuel supplier for the Btu
content of the fuel.
Required fuel pressure for liquid propane, 10 inches to 12 inches
of water column (0.36 to 0.43 psi). The primary regulator for the
propane supply is NOT INCLUDED with the generator.
NOTE:
All pipe sizing, construction and layout must comply NFPA 58
for liquid propane applications. Once the generator is installed,
verify that the fuel pressure NEVER drops below 10 inches
water column.
Prior to installation of the generator, the installer should consult
local fuel suppliers or the fire marshal to check codes and regula-
tions for proper installation. Local codes will mandate correct rout-
ing of gaseous fuel line piping around gardens, shrubs and other
landscaping to prevent any damage.
Special considerations should be given when installing the unit
where local conditions include flooding, tornados, hurricanes,
earthquakes and unstable ground for the flexibility and strength of
piping and their connections.
Use an approved pipe sealant or joint compound on all threaded
fitting.
All installed gaseous fuel piping must be purged and leak tested
prior to initial start-up in accordance with local codes, standards
and regulations.

NOTE:
A minimum of one approved manual shut-off valve must be
installed in the gaseous fuel supply line. The valve must be eas-
ily accessible. Local codes determine the proper location.

1.9.1 GENERATOR
Install the generator set, in its protective enclosure, outdoors,
where adequate cooling and ventilating air is always available
(Figure 1.3). Consider these factors:
The installation of the generator Y must comply strictly with
NFPA 37, NFPA 58, and NFPA 70 standards.
Install the unit where air inlet and outlet openings will not Y
become obstructed by leaves, grass, snow, etc.. If prevailing
winds will cause blowing or drifting, consider using a wind-
break to protect the unit.
Install the generator on high ground where water levels will not Y
rise and endanger it.
Allow sufficient room on all sides of the generator for mainte-Y
nance and servicing. This unit must be installed in accordance
with current applicable NFPA 37 and NFPA 70 standards; as
well as any other federal, state and local codes for minimum
distances from other structures. DO NOT install under wooden
decks or structures unless there is at least four (4) feet of clear-
ance above the generator, three (3) feet of clearance on sides
and front, and 18 inches of clearance at back of unit.
Install the unit where rain gutter down spouts, roof run-off, Y
landscape irrigation, water sprinklers or sump pump discharge
does not flood the unit or spray the enclosure, including any air
inlet or outlet openings.
