PLATE 7M9888 - Caterpillar

Receiving Inspection
If the generator is received during cold weather, allow the unit to reach room temperature before you remove the protective packing material. Warming the generator to room temperature will prevent the following problems:
Water condensation on cold surfaces
Early failures due to wet windings
Early failures due to wet insulating materialsUnpacking
Moving the Generator
Improper lift rigging can allow unit to tumble causing injury and damage.
Do not use the engine lifting eyes to remove the engine and generator together.
Unpack the equipment with care in order to avoid scratching painted surfaces. Move the unit to the mounting location. Follow the instructions under the "Product Lifting" topic. The hoist and the hoist cables should have a rating that is greater than the weight of the generator.Storage
If the generator is not installed immediately, refer to the "Product Storage" topic for the proper considerations for storing the unit.Location
The location of the generator must comply with all local regulations. The location of the generator must also comply with all special industrial regulations. Locate the generator in an area that meets the following requirements:
Clean
Dry
Well ventilated
Easily accessible for inspection and maintenance
Open generator sets shall be installed and located in a manner that contact with people is minimized.Do not obstruct air inlet openings. Do not obstruct discharge openings. Air flow must reach these openings. If the generator is exposed to harsh environmental conditions, the generator can be modified in the field in order to add filters and space heaters. In addition, a more rigid periodic maintenance schedule should be established.Note: For further information concerning the installation of this generator set, see the appropriate Application and Installation Guide.Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 2200
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONSSAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONSThis manual contains important instructions for all Cat UL Listed stationary engine generator assembly models, that should be followed during installation, and maintenance of the generator and batteries.Load Connections – Generator Set Output
For units equipped with ABB Tmax® circuit breaker: Installer shall connect and size conductors based upon ampacities found in the 75° C (167° F) column within Table 310.15(B) of the "National Electrical Code®, ANSI/NFPA 70". An ampacity of no less than 115 percent (115%) of the maximum rated circuit current during normal operating conditions shall be used. All conductor insulation shall be rated 90° C (194° F) or greater.For units equipped with power terminal strips: UL Listed field wiring terminals shall be sized for the connection of a conductor having an ampacity based upon ampacities found in the 75° C (167° F) column within Table 310.15(B) of the "National Electrical Code®, ANSI/NFPA 70". An ampacity of no less than 115 percent (115%) of the maximum rated circuit current during normal operating conditions shall be used. All conductor insulation shall be rated 90° C (194° F) or greater. Field wiring terminals shall be installed in accordance with tooling and instructions recommended by their manufacturer. A field wiring terminal shall be sized for the connection of a conductor having an ampacity based on the 75° C (167° F) column of Table 310.15(B) of the "National Electrical Code®,
