9500 Generator
Installation (cont’d)
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Wheel and Handle Kit Installation
(Installation requires a socket wrench with 10mm, 14mm, and 17mm sockets).
1. Before adding oil or gasoline to the engine,
tip the generator slowly so that the recoil
and air filter are up.
2. Install the two wheels on the generator
using the (2) 17mm 2 ½” bolts provided.
Make sure the valve stem is facing
outward.
3. Tip the generator slowly so that the recoil
and air filter are down.
4. Install the crutches on the under frame with
the (4) nuts and 14mm 1” bolts provided.
5. Tip the generator slowly so that is sits on
both the wheels and crutched.
6. Install the handrails on the right side of the
frame using the (2) nuts and 10mm 1 ¾”
bolts provided.
Support and Mounting
Mount the generator on a concrete slab capable of supporting the weight of the generator. The slab must extend on all
sides beyond the frame by at least one foot. Contact a cement contractor for slab specifications if necessary. Attach the
frame to the concrete slab using 3/8” diameter expansion anchor bolts (not supplied).
Grounding
Note:
It is recommended that only a trained and licensed electrician perform this procedure.
Connect a #6 AWG grounding wire (not included) from the ground connector on the generator to a grounding
rod (not included) that has been driven at least 24 inches deep into the earth. The grounding rod must be an
earth-driven copper or brass rod (electrode) which can adequately ground the generator.
