3.5 SETTING THE EXERCISE TIMER
This generator is equipped with an exercise timer.
Once it is set, the generator will start and exercise
once every seven days, on the day of the week and at
the time of day the following sequence is completed.
During this exercise period, the unit runs for approx-
imately 12 minutes and then shuts down. Transfer of
loads to the generator output does not occur during
the exercise cycle.

Place the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch in the AUTO
position. Push and hold the “Set Exercise Time”
switch to the ON position for approximately three
seconds and release. All five red LED’s will flash for
10 seconds. The unit will perform the standard exer-
cise sequence, then shut down. The generator will
now exercise every seven days at the time set.

NOTE:
The exerciser will only work in the AUTO mode
and will not work unless this procedure is per-
formed. The exerciser will need to be reset every
time the 12-volt battery is disconnected and then
reconnected.

SYSTEMS
3.6.1 LOW OIL PRESSURE SWITCH
This switch (Figure 3.2) has normally closed con-
tacts that are held open by engine oil pressure dur-
ing cranking and operating. Should oil pressure
drop below the 8 psi range, switch contacts close,
and the engine shuts down. The unit should not be
restarted until oil is added. The AUTO/OFF/MANUAL
switch must then be turned to OFF and then back to
AUTO.

3.6.2 HIGH TEMPERATURE SWITCH
This switch’s contacts (Figure 3.3) close if the tem-
perature should exceed approximately 132º C (270º
F), initiating an engine shutdown. The generator will
automatically restart and the LED on the generator
control panel will reset once the temperature has
returned to a safe operating level.

3.6.3 OVERCRANK
This feature prevents the generator from damaging
itself when it continually attempts to start and anoth-
er problem, such as no fuel supply, prevents it from
starting. The unit will crank and rest for a preset
time limit. Then, it will stop cranking, and the LED
on the generator control panel will light indicating an
overcrank failure. The AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch
will need to be set to OFF and then back to AUTO to
reset the generator control board.

3.6.4 OVERSPEED
This feature protects the generator from damage by
shutting it down if it happens to run faster than the
preset limit. This protection also prevents the gen-
erator from supplying an output that could poten-
tially damage appliances connected to the generator
circuit. Contact the nearest Authorized Dealer if this
failure occurs.
