KNOW YOUR CONTROL PANEL

Compare this Control Panel illustration with your generator to familiarize yourself with the location of these important
controls:

Circuit Breaker

Set Exercise Switch

AUTO/OFF/MANUAL

Switch

15 Amp Fuse

15 Amp Fuse — Protects the Standby Generator DC
control circuits. If the fuse has melted open or was
removed, the engine cannot crank or start. Replace the fuse
using only an identical BUSS AGC 15A fuse.

AUTO/OFF/MANUAL Switch — This three-position
switch is used as follows:

• “AUTO” position is the normal operating mode. If a

utility power outage is sensed, the generator will start
automatically.When utility power is restored, the
generator will shut down, and is ready for the next utility
power outage.

• “OFF” position turns off generator, prevents generator

from starting and resets any faults.

• “MANUAL” position starts the generator. It is used for

maintenance or diagnostic functions.

Circuit Breaker — Protects the system from over-
current conditions and must be in the “On” position to
supply power to the Transfer Switch.

Set Exercise Switch — Used to set the exercise cycle
start time and day-of-the-week. Exercise cycle only occurs
in AUTO mode.
