Safety

2 MMG330DI4-480DI4 Operating Manual 33797 C

ENGINE SAFETY

Internal combustion engines present special hazards during operation and fueling. Failure to follow the

safety guidelines described below could result in severe injury or death. Read and follow all safety warnings

described in the engine operator's manual. A copy of this manual was supplied with the unit when it was

shipped from the factory.

• DO NOT run engine indoors or in an area with poor ventilation. Engine exhaust contains carbon

monoxide, a deadly, odorless and colorless gas which, if inhaled, can cause nausea, fainting or death.

Make sure engine exhaust cannot seep into closed rooms or ventilation equipment.

• DO NOT touch or lean against hot exhaust pipes or engine components.

• DO NOT clean air filter with gasoline or other types of low flash point solvents.

• DO NOT operate the unit without a functional exhaust system.

• Prolonged exposure to sound levels in excess of 85 dB(A) can cause permanent hearing loss. Wear

hearing protection when working around a running engine.

• Batteries contain sulfuric acid which can cause severe injury or death. Sulfuric acid can cause eye

damage, burn flesh or eat holes in clothing. Protective eye wear and clothing are necessary when

working on or around the battery. Always disconnect the negative (-) battery cable from the

corresponding terminal before performing any service on the engine or other components.

SERVICE SAFETY

All service work must be performed by qualified personnel who are familiar with the equipment. Only a

qualified electrician should troubleshoot or repair electrical problems occurring in this equipment. Fol-

low the safety guidelines described below to prevent hazardous situations which could result in severe

injury or death.

• DO NOT wash the unit with high pressure hoses, power washers, or steam cleaners. Water may

collect in the unit, causing damage to electrical parts.

• ALWAYS use extreme caution when servicing this unit in damp conditions. Do not service the unit if

your skin or clothing is wet. Do not allow water to collect around the base of the unit.

• Replace all missing and hard to read decals. Decals provide important operating instructions and

warn of dangers and hazards.

TOWING SAFETY

Towing a trailer requires care. Both the trailer and vehicle must be in good condition and securely fastened

to each other to reduce the possibility of an accident. Some states require that large trailers be registered

and licensed. Contact your local Department of Transportation office to check on license requirements for

your particular unit.

• Verify the hitch and coupling on the towing vehicle are rated equal to, or greater than, the trailer's

Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR).

• Check trailer tires for wear and proper inflation.

• DO NOT tow trailer using defective parts. Inspect the hitch and coupling for wear or damage.

• Verify the trailer hitch and the coupling are compatible. Make sure the coupling is securely fastened

to the vehicle.

• Verify directional and brake lights on the trailer are connected and working properly.

• Verify wheel lug nuts are present and tightened to the specified torque.

• Maximum recommended speed for highway towing is 45 mph (72 km/h). Recommended off-road

towing speed is 10 mph (16 km/h) or less, depending on terrain.

Safety

33797 C MMG330DI4-480DI4 Operating Manual 3

• When towing, maintain extra space between vehicles and avoid soft shoulders, curbs and sudden

lane changes. Practice turning, stopping and backing up in an area away from heavy traffic prior to

transporting the unit.

• Wipe the coupler clean and apply fresh grease each time the trailer is towed to eliminate squeaking.

REPORTING TRAILER SAFETY DEFECTS

If you believe your trailer has a defect which could cause a crash or could cause injury or death, you should immediately

inform the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying Generac Mobile Products

LLC.

If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation; and if it finds that a safety defect exists in a group

of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy campaign. However, NHTSA cannot become involved in an individual

problem between you, your dealer, or Generac Mobile Products LLC.

To contact NHTSA, you may either call the Auto Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY:1-800-424-9153),

go to http://www.safercar.gov; or write to:

POWER ZONE™ CONTROLLER

The Power Zone™ controller is an auto start controller that monitors the unit and indicates operational status and

fault conditions. The controller can be programmed to automatically start or stop on based time schedule, fault

condition, or load demand.

The controller constantly monitors vital generator and engine functions for a number of pre-programmed alarm and

fault conditions. When a fault condition occurs, the engine can be shut down automatically and the main display will

show the fault that caused the shut down; to resume operation, the fault condition must be resolved.

This controller also records a history of unit performance which may be viewed at any time and will not be lost when

the controller is powered down.

Navigation Buttons

These buttons are used to navigate and interact with the Power Zone™ controller screens. Pressing any directional

arrow (“▲”, “►”, “▼”, “◄”) while on any of the operator screens will open the maintenance screens, and navigate

the tabs and pages within the maintenance screens. The Enter “” button is used to select menus, confirm alarms,

and confirm altered settings.

Control Power Switch

Use this switch to start up and shut down the Power Zone™ controller. This switch should not be turned off when

the unit is running.

Engine Start

Pressing the Engine Start “I” button while the controller is in “Manual Mode” will start the unit, provided there are no

shutdown errors, and the engine satisfies the start status. If the controller is in “Auto Mode”, the engine start button

has no effect.

Engine Stop/Reset

Pressing the Engine Stop/Reset “O” button will shut down the unit and put the controller into Stop Mode, whether in

“Manual Mode” or “Auto Mode”.

CAUTION

In case of an emergency, always press the “EMERGENCY STOP” switch located on the

side of the unit to stop the engine immediately. The Engine Stop/Reset “O” button may delay

the engine shutdown if stop faults exist.

To prevent damage to the generator and connected equipment, remove all loads from the

generator by opening all circuit breakers (turn to “OFF/O”) before pressing the Engine Stop/

Reset “O” button.

OPERATOR SCREENS

The operator screens display the most relevant and critical information an operator will need to properly configure

and utilize a unit. From these four screens the operator can access engine, generator and power transmission

information necessary to operate the unit under normal conditions.

Home Screen

The Home screen is the default screen of the controller and will display after the controller is powered up and the

unit management software is loaded. It displays a live readout of the kW meter, percent of load used (gauge), selected

phase, volts and amps being produced by the generator, and the fuel level with time until empty. The controller will

automatically return to this screen from any other screen after a period of inactivity.
