Operaon of Generator

HOW TO USE YOUR GENERATOR

USAGE IN HIGH ALTITUDE REGIONS:

In regions with high altitude e, the standard carburetor produces overly dense combinations of fuel and air, which result in decreased engine performance and increased fuel consumption. To maintain high engine performance at high altitudes, install a high altitude carburetor main spray nozzle and re-adjust the adjusng screw for idle speed. For usage in regions with an altitude of over 4,527ft (1380m), contact your dealer to replace the standard carburetor and make needed adjustments in advance. Even with a proper high altitude carburetor spray nozzle installed in the engine, the power output of the engine will drop about 3.5% with every 1000ft (305m) increase in altitude. If the standard carburetor jets are not replaced and adjusted for usage in high altitude de, the increased altitude de effect will be even more severe.

NOTE: Usage of the generator in regions with lower altud e than the high altud e carburetor spray nozzle is applicable, may result in decrease of engine performance. The engine may become overheated and over-lean combinao n of fuel and air produced may cause severe damage to the engine.

TRANSFER SWITCH CONNECTIONS - Only allow Professional Electricians

The Lifan EnergyStorm generator is wired with the neutral bonded to ground. If you are connecng your generator to a transfer switch, the electrician must rst determine what type transfer switch is being used. Transfer switches for this equipment are either two-pole or three- pole types.

A two-pole transfer switch will not switch the neutral from the generator to the service panel. That means the generator will be grounded to the service panel. To use the generator with two-pole transfer switches, the electrician will need to change the neutral from bonded to oang.

This is done by removing the jumper wire that connects the alternator ground to the alternator neutral. Remove the jumper wire and reghten the connecons. Keep the jumper wire with the owner's manual in case it is needed for future use when not connected to a transfer switch.

CONVERTING AMPS OR HORSEPOWER INTO WATTS

Was = Amps x Volts

Running Was* = Horsepower x 932** (for motors)

- Add a 10% correcon factor to your totals to help overcome this uncertainty.

If your customer plans to operate devices that use electric motors, list both the starng and running requirements of each.

- Starng requirements of some devices maybe significantly higher than their running requirements. This higher demand must be considered when esmang your power needs. Some small, universal motors — which do not draw a heavy starng load (drills, small saws, blenders, etc.) — require very lile extra current for starng.
