SAFETY
BEFORE STARTING
CAUTION
Before starting, operating and
maintaining this generator, be sure
to read and understand the content
and safety messages in this manual.
The operator is responsible for safe
operation and maintenance of the
generator. Be sure all potential users
of the generator also understand
these instructions. If any portion
of this manual is not understood,
contact your dealer for assistance
before operating the generator.
The operator is responsible for
performing all safety checks, making
sure all maintenance is properly
performed and making sure the
generator is periodically checked by
the dealer.
Inspect the generator regularly.
Contact your dealer if repairs are
needed.
NEVER climb or step on any part or
components of the generator. Doing
so may result in injury and cause
leaking fuel and exhaust.
OPERATING HAZARDS
WARNING
ALWAYS operate the generator
following the manufacturer’s
instructions. Operating the generator
imprudently, neglecting maintenance
or being careless can result in injury
or possible death.
DO NOT allow children or unqualified
persons to operate or service the

CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARDS
DANGER
Generator exhaust contains carbon
monoxide, a colorless, odorless,
poisonous gas. Breathing carbon
monoxide will cause nausea,
dizziness, fainting or death. If you
start to feel dizzy or weak, get to
fresh air immediately.
• The generator must be installed
and operated outdoors only.
NEVER install the generator where
exhaust fumes could seep inside
or be drawn into a potentially
occupied building through
windows, air intake vents or other
openings.
• Avoid breathing exhaust fumes
when near an operating generator.
• NEVER alter or add to the exhaust
system or do anything that might
render the system unsafe or in
noncompliance with applicable
codes, standards, laws and
regulations.
• Install a battery-operated carbon
monoxide detector on each
level of any building adjacent
to the generator following the
manufacturer’s instructions.
• NEVER permit even partial
blockage of engine cooling
ventilation air. Doing so can
seriously affect safe operation of
the generator.
Carbon monoxide poisoning symptoms include but are not
limited to the following:
• Light-headedness, dizziness
• Physical fatigue, weakness in joints and muscles
• Sleepiness, mental fatigue, inability to concentrate or
speak clearly, blurred vision
• Stomachache, vomiting, nausea

!
SAFETY
Carbon monoxide poisoning is possible if someone is
experiencing any of these symptoms. Seek fresh air immediately.
DO NOT sit, lie down or fall asleep. Alert others to the possibility
of carbon monoxide poisoning. If the affected person does
not improve within minutes of breathing fresh air, call 911
immediately.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARDS
WARNING
Use extreme caution when near
the generator while it is operating.
The generator produces dangerous
voltage.
• Avoid contact with bare wires,
terminals and connections while
the generator is operating.
• ALWAYS stand on an insulated dry
surface to reduce shock hazard
if work must be done on an
operating generator.
• NEVER wear jewelry that can
conduct electricity when working
on the generator.
• NEVER handle any kind of
electrical device while hands or
feet are wet, while standing in
water or while barefoot.
• Proper earth grounding of the
frame and external electrical
conductive components is
required by the National Electrical
Code (NEC). State and local codes
for proper grounding may also
apply.
• Avoid direct contact with an
electric shock victim. Immediately
shut down the source of electrical
power. If this is not possible,
attempt to free the victim from
the live conductor using a
nonconducting item such as a
dry board or rope. If the victim is
unconscious, apply first aid and
call 911 immediately.
FIRE/EXPLOSION HAZARDS
WARNING
NG and LPG are extremely explosive.
• NEVER allow any flames or smoke
near the fuel system.
• Wipe up any oil spills immediately.
• NEVER allow any combustible
materials to be near the generator
or to be left in the generator
compartment.
• ALWAYS keep the surrounding
area near the generator clean and
free of debris.
• Be sure to properly purge the fuel
lines and leak-test according to
applicable codes before placing
the generator in service.
• Be sure to regularly inspect the
fuel system for leaks. NEVER
operate the generator if a fuel leak
is present.
• Install a fire extinguisher near
the generator. Keep it properly
charged and be familiar with
its use. An ABC rated National
Fire Protection extinguisher is
appropriate for use on standby
electric systems. Contact your
local fire department with any
questions concerning the fire
extinguisher.

SAFETY
BURN HAZARDS
WARNING
ALWAYS allow hot surfaces to cool to
the touch. Running engines produce
heat. Severe burns can occur on
contact.
• DO NOT touch hot surfaces.
• Avoid contact with hot exhaust
components and gases.
ENTANGLEMENT HAZARDS
WARNING
Use extreme caution when near
rotating parts. Rotating parts can
entangle hands, feet, hair, clothing
and/or accessories. Traumatic
amputation or severe laceration can
result.
• Keep hands and feet away from
rotating parts.
• Tie up long hair and remove
jewelry.
• Operate equipment with guards in
place.
• DO NOT wear loose-fitting
clothing, dangling drawstrings or
items that could become caught.
WARNING
Batteries contain sulfuric acid and
generate explosive mixtures of
hydrogen and oxygen gases. Keep
any device that may cause sparks
or flames away from the battery to
prevent explosion.
Always wear protective glasses
or goggles and protective clothing
when working with batteries.
You must follow the battery
manufacturer’s instructions on
safety, maintenance and installation
procedures.
SAFETY LABELS
WARNING
All safety labels must be legible to
alert personnel of safety hazards.
• Replace any illegible or missing
label immediately. Missing safety
labels must be replaced in their
original position before the
generator is operated.
• DO NOT operate the generator if
there are missing or badly worn
safety labels.
BATTERY HAZARDS
WARNING
Always read and comply with
the battery manufacturer’s
recommendations for procedures
concerning proper battery use and
maintenance.

GENERAL INFORMATION
SET EXERCISE TIME
To set the exercise time, the engine control module switch
must be in the ATS mode. Decide on the desired day and time
to exercise the generator. Press the exercise switch to ON. The
generator will start and run for 15 minutes and then shut off.
The exercise time is now set. The generator will begin the next
exercise period exactly 168 hours from when the exercise switch
was pressed to the ON position.
If you choose to change the current exercise time setting, choose
the new day and time and cycle the exercise switch from off to
on and it will begin the cycle again. (Figure 4)
The exercise time will have to be reset if:
• The battery was disconnected from the generator
• The switch was moved to the OFF position for
maintenance
HOUR METER
The generator is equipped with an hour meter that will display
the generator actual run and exercise times.
ENGINE CONTROL MODULE
The engine control module contains the ATS/OFF/Manual mode
switch and the LEDs that indicate if a generator operation is
being performed or if there is an active alarm. (Figure 5)
If the exterior fault code indicator light is on, open the enclosure
to view the engine control module. Determine what the fault code
is and remedy the situation or have the generator serviced by an
authorized Service Dealer or contact Champion Customer Service
at 1-877-338-0999.

• ATS – This position allows for fully automatic operation. If
utility power is lost, the generator will automatically start
up. It also allows the generator to automatically perform
the exercise period.
• OFF – This position shuts down the engine and prevents
automatic operation of the generator.
• Manual – This position allows manual starting of the
engine. Load transfer from the generator output does not
occur unless the utility power is lost.

sure there are no active fault codes.
The fault code(s) can be reset by placing the Engine Control
Module (Figure 5) in the OFF position. This will reset fault LED,
however if a fault code(s) re-occurs it must be addressed.
LOW BATTERY LED
The yellow LED will be lit if the battery voltage fell below 21.0
