installatiOn  
OuTdOOR iNsTallaTiON  
geNeRaTOR gROuNdiNg  
If possible install the generator in a area that is free of  
debris, bystanders, and overhead obstructions. Make sure  
the generator is on secure level ground so that it cannot  
slide or shift around.  
To guard against electrical shock and possible damage to  
the equipment, it is important to provide a good eaRTh  
ground.  
Article 250 (Grounding) of the National Electrical Code  
(NEC) provides guide lines for proper grounding and  
specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the  
grounding system of the building as close to the point of  
cable entry as practical.  
The installation site must be relatively free from moisture  
and dust.All electrical equipment should be protected from  
excessive moisture.Failure to do will result in deterioration  
of the insulation and will result in short circuits and  
grounding.  
NEC articles 250-64(b) and 250-66 set the following  
grounding requirements:  
Foreign materials such as dust, sand, lint and abrasive  
materials have a tendency to cause excessive wear to  
engine and alternator parts.  
1. Use one of the following wire types to connect the  
generator to earth ground.  
iNdOOR iNsTallaTiON  
a. Copper - 10 AWG (5.3 mm2) or larger.  
b. Aluminum - 8 AWG (8.4 mm2) or larger.  
WaRNiNg  
2. When grounding the generator (Figure 2) connect the  
ground cable between the lock washer and the nut on  
the generator and tighten the nut fully. Connect the  
other end of the ground cable to earth ground.  
Pay close attention to ventilation when  
operating the generator inside tunnels  
and caves. The engine exhaust contains  
noxious elements. Engine exhaust must  
be routed to a ventilated area  
3. NEC article 250-52(c) specifies that the earth ground rod  
should be buried a minimum of 8 ft. into the ground.  
NOTICE  
Exhaust gases from gas engines are extremely poisonous.  
Whenever an engine is installed indoors the exhaust  
fumes must be vented to the outside. The engine should  
be installed at least two feet from any outside wall. Using  
an exhaust pipe which is too long or too small can cause  
excessive back pressure which will cause the engine to  
heat excessively and possibly burn the valves.  
When connecting the generator to any buildings  
electrical system alWaYs consult with a licensed  
electrician.  
placemeNT  
The generators should always be placed on a flat level  
surface when it is running. DO NOT place the generators  
on slopes, the possibility exists that the generators could  
slide.  
daNgeR  
An electric shock is apt to happen when  
vibrators are used. Pay close attention to  
handling when operating vibrators and  
always use rubber boots and gloves to  
insulate the body from a short circuit.

generator  
Before connecting this generators to any building’s  
electrical system, a licensed electrician must install an  
isolation (transfer) switch.  
The Multiquip GAC3.6HZ generator has been designed  
as a portable dual purpose power source for 60 Hz (single  
phase) lighting facilities, power tools, submersible pumps  
and other industrial and construction machinery.  
Serious injury or death may result without this transfer  
switch.  
These generators are mounted on rubber vibration isolators  
that have a steel base backplate which is attached to the  
protective steel pipe carrying frame.The protective carrying  
frame is made of steel tubing and fully wraps around the  
generators to protect against damage. See Figures 3, and  
4 for the basic controls and indicators for the generator.  
These portable generators are supplied with a electrical  
control box.To reduce vibration caused by the engine, the  
control box is also placed on rubber isolators.  
control Box  
The control box is provided with the following:  
„ 240V twist-lock output receptacle (single phase).  
„ 120V twist-lock receptacle (single phase).  
„ 120V GFCI receptacle.  
„ 15 Amp Main Circuit Breaker.

ground powerTools  
Double-insulated power tools and small appliances  
have specially insulated housings that eliminate the  
need for a ground pin.These types of double-insulated  
power cords are designed so that no part of the device  
will be electrically live even if the internal insulation fails.  
When using power tools or electrical equipment requireing  
AC power from the generator, make sure power tool cord  
has a ground pin or is double insulated as shown in Figure 5.  
extension cable  
When electric power is to be provided to various tools or  
loads at some distance from the generator, extension cords  
are normally used. Cables should be sized to allow for  
distance in length and amperage so that the voltage drop  
between the generators and point of use (load) is held to  
a minimum. Use the cable selection chart (Table 3) as a  
guide for selecting proper cable size.  
daNgeR  
NeveR use power tools or equipment that do not  
have a ground capability, the possibility exists of  
electrocution, electrical shock or burn, which can cause  
severe bodily harm or even deaTh!
