1.7.4 OVERSPEED 
SHUTDOWN
The engine control board receives AC frequency sig-
nals from an engine run winding in the alternator. 
Should AC frequency exceed about 72 Hertz for three 
seconds or 75 Hertz instantaniously, the engine shuts 
down and the overspeed LED turns on. Should AC 
frequency exceed about 72 Hertz, circuit board action 
will automatically shutdown the engine (Figure 1.7).

1.7.5 RPM 
SENSOR 
LOSS
If the engine control board does not receive a proper 
rpm signal from the starter during cranking or run-
ning, it shuts down the engine on rpm sensor loss 
and flash the overspeed LED.
1.7.6 OVERCRANK 
SHUTDOWN
The engine control board uses a cyclic cranking pro-
cess when attempting to start the engine. The first 
crank cycle is a 15-second crank followed by a seven-
second rest. This is followed by five more crank 
cycles each with a seven-second crank followed by a 
seven-second rest.
If the engine fails to start after all six attempts, the 
start attempt is stopped and the overcrank LED’s 
illuminated.

1.7.7 LOW 
BATTERY
The engine control board continually monitors the 
battery voltage and turns on the low battery LED 
if the battery voltage falls below 11.0 VDC for one 
minute. Low battery voltage is a non-latching alarm, 
which will automatically clear if the battery voltage 
rises above 11.0 VDC.
The control system will not attempt to start the 
engine if there is a low battery condition, however, if 
the engine is already running when the low battery 
condition occurs, the engine will continue to run as 
long as possible.
Battery voltage is NOT monitored during the crank 
cycle.
1.7.8 ALARM 
RESET
If the engine control board shuts down the genera-
tor for any of the above reasons, the engine remains 
stopped until the alarm is cleared by placing the 
AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch into the OFF position.
1.7.9 DC 
FUSES
These fuses are located on the front panel of the con-
trol system. They protect the panel wiring and com-
ponents from damaging overload. Always remove the 
15 amp main fuse before working on the generator. 
The unit will not start or crank if this fuse is blown. 
Replace the fuse with one of the same size, type, and 
rating (main AGC-15, battery charger AG4).
1.8 UNPACKING
1.8.1 UNPACKING 
PRECAUTIONS
Handle shipping cartons and crates with care. Use 
care to avoid damage from dropping, bumping, colli-
sion, etc. Store and unpack cartons with the proper 
side up, as noted on the shipping carton.
1.8.2 INSPECTION
After unpacking, carefully inspect the generator for 
any damage that may have occurred during ship-
ment. If loss or damage is noted at the time of deliv-
ery, have the person(s) making delivery note all dam-
age on the freight bill or affix their signature under 
the consignor’s memo of loss or damage.
1.9  LIFTING THE GENERATOR
  When lifting or hoisting equipment is used, be 
careful not to touch overhead power lines. The 
generators weight of more than 900 pounds 
requires proper tools, equipment, and qualified 
personnel to be used in all phases of handling 
and unpacking.
