OSHA and the National Electric Code requires this.
You must provide the GFCI device.
Purchase GFCI at any electrical supply house. Check the Yellow Pages for the nearest supply house.
STANDBY INSTALLATION TO HOME OR
BUILDING
Have standby installation performed by a skilled, licensed electrician. Do not let anyone else wire into a utility circuit. Personal injury, equipment damage, or damage to home could occur.
IMPORTANT: This generator will not power your entire home. Most home utility electric service is more than 60 amps. This will exceed generator output.
Only power needed items during a power outage. Make sure total wattage of electrical load does not exceed rated wattage of generator.
You can use this generator as a standby power source. During a power outage, the generator will power selected items in a building. Have generator and additional wiring installed by a skilled, licensed electrician. This is not a do-it-yourself job.
Follow all local codes.
The electrician must install a double-throw transfer switch. This isolates existing electrical circuits from the utility power line. If not isolated, generator output will back-feed into utility power line. This may electrocute a power company line repair person.
DETERMINING ELECTRICAL LOAD FOR
GENERATOR
You must decide what electrical load your generator can power. Do this before using generator. Use the following four-step method. It will help you select a load that is not too large. Make sure total wattage of all electrical loads does not exceed
3000 watts (model 3ZC06B) or 5000 watts
(model 4W315B). Electric motors present a special problem when figuring load. Read
Step 3 carefully.
1. Make two lists of items you want powered by generator. List all motors and motor powered appliances in one.
List all lights, small appliances, etc. in the other. For standby service to home or building, only include items you must power.
2. Enter running watts of each item except motors. The light bulb or appliance nameplate lists its wattage. Remember,
1KW = 1000 watts. NOTE: The nameplate may not list wattage. It may only list volts and amps. The formula for finding wattage is: Volts x Amps =
Watts. For example: An appliance nameplate states 3 amps at 120 volts. 3 amps x 120 volts = 360 watts.
3. Electric motors present a special problem. They require up to 3-times their rated wattage to start. Chart 2, page 11, shows starting watts (maximum volt-amperes [VA]) for different size motors. For example: an electric motor nameplate states 5 amps at 120 volts. 5 amps x 120 volts = 600 watts running. Multiply this figure by 3. This will show the starting watts (maximum
VA) needed. 600 watts x 3 = 1800 watts (VA) to start. When figuring the generator load for motors, you must use the starting watts (maximum VA) figure.
Do not use the running watts figure.
NOTE: Some motors require nearly the same wattage to run as to start. These items include saws, drills, hair dryers, and food mixers. See Chart 1, page 11 for typical appliance wattage examples.
4. Add watts and starting watts (maximum
VA) of all items. This total must not be larger than 3000 watts (model 3ZC06B) or 5000 watts (model 4W315B). It is a good idea to have up to 25% extra capacity for future needs or extra equipment.

Output drops 1% for each 10° temperature rise above 60° F. Very low temperatures may make the engine hard to start.
See engine owner’s manual for more information.
GENERAL INFORMATION
This generator is not large enough to power your entire home. Do not connect generator to any existing electrical circuits.
Plug items directly into generator receptacles. Do not exceed amperage rating of receptacles. Only use grounded cords.
Use only in wellvented areas. Make sure area has plenty of free-moving, fresh, outside air. Never run generator in an enclosed or confined area. Never run generator inside occupied building.
engine exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas. Overexposure will cause loss of consciousness and will lead to death.
Never connect generator to any existing electrical circuits. The generator output will back-feed into the utility power line. This may electrocute a power company line repair person.
Also, if generator is powering electrical circuits, the chance of an electrical fire exists.
NOTE: We supply the engine owner’s manual with generator. Refer to that manual for questions concerning engine operation.
USING RECEPTACLE
NOTE: Do not exceed amperage rating of receptacles. Exceeding rating will trip receptacle circuit breaker.
Use receptacles properly. Improper use could damage generator. Use only grounded extension cords. Power only grounded or double-insulated items. Do not overload receptacles. These generators have the following receptacles (see Figure
16):

800-323-0620.
Yanmar engine servicing should be handled by your nearest authorized
Yanmar engine service firm. Contact
Yanmar at 1-714-630-9415 for nearest authorized Yanmar engine service firm.
ENGINE MAINTENANCE
Periodic checks and maintenance are very important for keeping the engine in good condition and durable. The chart on page
18 indicates which checks to make and when to make them. The mark “•” indicates that special tools and skills are required. Items marked “•” should be serviced by an authorized Yanmar dealer, unless the owner has the proper tools and is mechanically proficient.
Consult your Yanmar dealer.
Shut off the engine before performing any maintenance. If the engine must be run, make sure the area is well ventilated. The exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas.
clean the engine immediately with a cloth to prevent corrosion and to remove sediment.
After the engine has been used, use of replacement parts which are not of equivalent quality may damage the engine.
Only use genuine
Yanmar parts. The
HOW TO CHANGE YOUR ENGINE OIL
Remove the oil filler cap. Remove the drain plug and drain the old oil while the engine is still warm. The plug is located on the bottom of the cylinder block. Tighten the drain plug and refill with the recommended oil. (See the section under
Preparations for starting in the engine owner’s manual.)
CLEANING THE OIL FILTER
Loosen the fixing bolt and then pull out the oil filter. Clean oil filter every six months or 500 hours operation.
CHANGING THE AIR CLEANER ELE-
MENT
Do not wash the air cleaner element with detergent because this is a wet-type element. Change air cleaner element every six months or 500 hours operation (or earlier if dirty).
See the section for changing the air cleaner element under Preparations for
starting in the engine owner’s manual.
Never run the engine without the air cleaner element or with a defective element.
Note: A clogged element hinders the flow of air to the combustion chamber. This reduces engine output, increases lube oil and fuel oil consumption and makes starting difficult. Make sure you clean your element regularly.
CLEANING AND REPLACING THE FUEL
FILTER
The fuel filter also has to be cleaned regularly to insure maximum engine output. Clean fuel filter every six months or 500 hours operation. Replace fuel filter every year or 1000 hours operation.
1. Drain the fuel oil from the fuel tank.
2. loosen the nuts of the fuel cock and pull out the filter from the fuel tank filler port. Wash the filter thoroughly with diesel fuel.
CLEANING THE SPARK ARRESTER muffler and the spark arrester will be very hot. Allow these to cool before proceeding.

CHECKING THE INJECTION NOZZLE,
INJECTION PUMP, ETC.
• Adjusting the valve head clearance for the intake and exhaust valves.
• Lapping of intake and exhaust valves.
• Replacing piston ring.
All these require special tools and skills.
Consult your Yanmar dealer.
Do not perform the injection nozzle test near an open fire or any other kind of fire. The fuel spray may ignite. Do not expose bare skin to the fuel spray.
The fuel may penetrate the skin and cause injury to the body. Always keep your body away from the nozzle.
CHECKING AND REPLENISHING BAT-
TERY FLUID AND CHARGING THE
BATTERY (MODEL 4W315B ONLY)
Battery fluid will be lost through continuous charging and discharging.
The battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid. Protect your eyes, skin, and clothing. In case of contact, flush thoroughly with water and get prompt medical attention, especially if your eyes are affected.
Batteries generate hydrogen gas, which can be highly explosive. Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks near the battery, especially during charging.
Note: Much more fluid is lost during summer than in winter.
Before starting, check for physical damage to the battery and also the electrolyte levels, and replenish with distilled water up to the upper mark if necessary. When actual damage is discovered, replace the battery. Check battery fluid monthly.
Before charging, remove the cap from each cell of the battery. Charge the battery in a place where there is plenty of ventilation. Discontinue charging if the electrolyte temperature exceeds 45° C (117° F).

Do not charge the battery with the
Connect the (+) lead of the charger to the (+) terminal of the battery, and the (–) lead to the (–) terminal. Reversed polarity will damage the charger rectifier or the battery.
Storage
Remove all fuel from fuel tank before storing generator. Store fuel in approved container. Store fuel in a well-vented area free of open flames or sparks.
The muffler becomes very hot during operation. The muffler remains hot for a while after shutdown. Let engine cool before storing.
IMPORTANT: Keep generator level while in storage. Never store generator upside down or standing on end.
Cover and store generator in a clean, dry place. Do not expose generator to extreme high or low temperatures during storage.
ENGINE STORAGE
If storing your engine for long periods, make the following preparations.
1. Operate the engine for about 3 minutes and then stop.
2. Stop the engine. Drain the engine lube oil while the engine is still warm and fill with new oil.
3. Remove the rubber plug on the rocker arm cover and add about 2cc of lube oil. Put the plug back in place (see

NOTE: The five-year limited warranty below covers all non-engine parts of this generator including the alternator. Yanmar warrants the engine. See engine owner’s manual for engine warranty information.
LIMITED WARRANTY
Dayton Five-Year Limited Warranty. Professional-duty electric generator alternators, Models 3ZC06B and 4W315B, are warranted by Dayton Electric Mfg. Co. (Dayton) to the original user against defects in workmanship or materials under normal use for five years after date of purchase. Any part which is determined by Dayton to be defective in material or workmanship and returned to an authorized service location, as Dayton designates, shipping costs prepaid, will be, as the exclusive remedy, repaired or replaced at
Dayton’s option. For limited warranty claim procedures, see PROMPT DISPOSITION below. This limited warranty gives purchasers specific legal rights which vary from state to state.
Limitation of Liability. To the extent allowable under applicable law, Dayton’s liability for consequential and incidental damages is expressly disclaimed. Dayton’s liability in all events is limited to, and shall not exceed, the purchase price paid.
Warranty Disclaimer. Dayton has made a diligent effort to illustrate and describe the products in this literature accurately; however, such illustrations and descriptions are for the sole purpose of identification, and do not express or imply a warranty that the products are merchantable, or fit for a particular purpose, or that the products will necessarily conform to the illustrations or descriptions.
Except as provided below, no warranty or affirmation of fact, expressed or implied, other than as stated in “LIMITED WARRANTY” above is made or authorized by Dayton.
Product Suitability. Many states and localities have codes and regulations governing sales, construction, installation, and/or use of products for certain purposes, which may vary from those in neighboring areas. While Dayton attempts to assure that its products comply with such codes, it cannot guarantee compliance, and cannot be responsible for how the product is installed or used. Before purchase and use of a product, please review the product application, and national and local codes and regulations, and be sure that the product, installation, and use will comply with them.
Certain aspects of disclaimers are not applicable to consumer products; e.g., (a) some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you; (b) also, some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, consequently the above limitation may not apply to you; and (c) by law, during the period of this Limited Warranty, any implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose applicable to consumer products purchased by consumers, may not be excluded or otherwise disclaimed.
Prompt Disposition. Dayton will make a good faith effort for prompt correction or other adjustment with respect to any product which proves to be defective within limited warranty. For any product believed to be defective within limited warranty, first write or call dealer from whom product was purchased. Dealer will give additional directions. If unable to resolve satisfactorily, write to Dayton at address below, giving dealer’s name, address, date and number of dealer’s invoice, and describing the nature of the defect. Title and risk of loss pass to buyer on delivery to common carrier. If product was damaged in transit to you, file claim with carrier.
