Chapter one: Technical Features
I. Technical Features of the Single Phase Dual-Fuel Generator
This gas generator is Dual-fuel and able to utilize both Natural Gas (NG) and Liquid
Propane (LPG). It is a versatile multi-fuel engine. Based on our standards, we have
designed this unit to operate in an environmentally safe and user friendly manor:
1. Speed Regulating System: This gas generator uses an internally designed
electronic speed control system, allowing for quick and easy adjustments to the engine
speed that can be set to specific speed ranges. This control system allows the engine to
run more smoothly and respond quickly to sudden increases or decreases in required
engine speed.
2. Silent Air In-take System: Extra-large air intake cross-sections in the housing
enclosure ensures ample air flow for the engine and air in-take. This unique housing
enclosure structure leads to a significant reduction operating noise.
3. Large Liquid Cooled Radiator and Reservoir: The use of an oversized radiator
and coolant reservoir, like those used in automobile engines, allows for additional
radiator coil surface and helps maintain a more ambient and stable engine temperature
even in the hottest climates. Utilizing this liquid cooled system adds to the life and long
term operating dependability of your gas generator investment.
4. Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) and Function: Automatic Transfer Switches are
critical components of any emergency or standby power system. They are used for
transferring essential loads and electrical distribution from one power source to another
automatically, without personal involvement.
5. Intelligent Hazard Control System and Function:The Intelligent Hazard Control
System warns of dangerous conditions that exist to the engine or generator. This system
Lifan Power USA. 2250 Industrial Park Rd. Van Buren, AR 72956
PH 866-471-7464 www.lifanpowerusa.com

continually checks and monitors the unit’s operating conditions and will automatically
shut down if detected, to help avoid costly damage. This system uses a visual control
panel that can be preset according to the user's needs.

Chapter two: Important Safety Instructions
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS – This manual contains important instructions for the
following modelsPD20REG-DB, PD25REG-DB thatshould be followed completely during
installation and maintenance of the generator and battery.
Ⅰ. Warning
1. Generator set operation. Carbon monoxide can cause severe nausea, fainting, or
even death. Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless, tasteless, nonirritating gas
that can cause death if inhaled for even a short time. Avoid breathing exhaust fumes
when working on or near the generator set. Never operate the generator set inside a
building. Never operate the generator set where exhaust gas could seep inside or be
drawn into a potentially occupied building through windows, air intake vents, or other
openings.

Risquetoxique de vapeurs. Les moteurs courants dégagent le carbone
oxyde, un gaztoxiqueinodore qui peut causer la nausée, l'évanouissement, ou la mort. Ne
mettez pas enmarcheou ne courez pas le moteur à l'intérieuroudans un secteurinclus,
mêmesi les fenêtres et les portessontouvertes.
2. Fuel system. Fuel Vapors are highly explosive and can cause severe injury or death.
Use extreme care when handling and storing fuels. Store fuels in a well-ventilated
area away from spark-producing equipment, gas hot water heaters and out of the
reach of children. Never add fuel while the engine is running or hot, fuel spills may
ignite on contact with hot parts and muffler. Do not smoke or operate around sparks
or open flames. Keep fuel lines and connections tight and in good working condition.
3. Servicing the exhaust system. Hot parts can cause severe injury. Do not touch hot
engine parts. The engine and exhaust system components become extremely hot during
operation.
4. Servicing the engine. Hot parts can cause personal injury or property damage. Install
(optional feature, sold separately) engine block heater for extreme cold weather
before connecting it to power (See separate installation instructions). Operating the
engine block heater before installation can cause burns and component damage.
Disconnect power to the engine block heater and allow it to cool before servicing the
heater or nearby parts. Keep the generator at least 2m（6ft）distance from other devices.

Grounding
5. Grounding electrical equipment Hazardous voltage can cause severe injury or
death. Electrocution is possible whenever electricity is present. Ensure you comply with
all applicable state and local codes and standards. Electrically ground the generator set,
transfer switch, and related equipment and electrical circuits. Turn off the main circuit
breakers of all power sources before servicing the equipment. Never contact electrical
leads or appliances when standing in water or on wet ground because these conditions
increase the risk of electrocution. It is highly recommended that a barrier exist between
you and the ground surface. We recommend using a wooden pallet with rubber mat on
top to stand on while working or servicing the standby generator.
Grounding is required of all AC circuits, use terminal (identify terminal)for bonding this
circuit to the enclosure with a grounding rod (Not provided with unit). Ground the
enclosure to a grounding electrode in accordance with state and local code
requirements.
