A. C. MODULAR GENERATOR SYSTEM
Page 22 of 52
Note: The generator is shipped from the factory with the purge option enabled.
The system controller has been designed to provide a purge option. With this
option applied, the generator will turn at a reduced speed to minimize wear to
the system’s hydraulic components while purging air from the system. Once
enabled, the purge option will remain set until automatically reset by the system
controller. The system controller will reset the option once the following two
conditions are met:
1. The hydraulic system has been purged for a total of at least 30 minutes.
2. Of those 30 minutes, at least 20 occurred with the generator on.

WARNING:
Never operate the system without the filler/breather plug installed. Contaminants
may enter the hydraulic fluid through the filler opening, causing premature wear on
the hydraulic components and void the system’s warranty.
Never apply a load to the generator while there is air trapped in the hydraulic fluid.
Damage to the system’s hydraulic components, as well as ruptured hoses, may
result and void the system’s warranty.
Always run the purge cycle after installation, after replacing the hydraulic fluid and
the filter, or after making any other repairs that may allow air into the hydraulic
system. Failure to do so will void the system’s warranty.
