[. . . ] If you use a procedure, work method or operating technique that the manufacturer does not specifically recommend, you must satisfy yourself that it is safe for you and others. You must also make sure that the procedure, work method or operating technique that you choose does not render the transfer switch unsafe. Failure to properly ground transfer switch can result in electrocution. DO NOT use transfer switch with worn, frayed, bare or otherwise damaged wiring. [. . . ] Every effort has been expended to make sure that the information in this manual is both accurate and current. However, the manufacturer reserves the right to change, alter or otherwise improve the system at any time without prior notice. To help you make informed choices and communicate effectively with your installation contractor(s), Read and observe the safety rules. ⷠRead and follow the instructions given in this manual. Read and understand the Owner Orientation Section of this manual BEFORE contracting or starting your transfer switch installation. These transfer switches are intended to operate compatible electrical loads of normal residential installations. The load is connected either to utility power (normal) or home standby power (emergency). These manual transfer switches are equipped with two circuit breakers ("GENERATOR SUPPLY" and "UTILITY SUPPLY") and a mechanical interlock. The "GENERATOR SUPPLY" circuit breaker provides power from the generator to the load devices wired to the manual transfer switch. The "UTILITY SUPPLY" circuit breaker provides utility power from the distribution panel to the load devices wired to the manual transfer switch. The mechanical interlock allows the circuit breakers for either the generator power "GENERATOR SUPPLY" or the utility power "UTILITY SUPPLY" to be turned on to provide power to the selected house loads. These manual transfer switches will not allow utility line power and generator power to be connected to a load device at the same time. If utility line power is restored while generator power is being used, there will be no affect on the generator or transfer switch components. When utility power is restored, follow the instructions in the section "System Operation". Delivery Inspection After removing the carton, carefully inspect the transfer switch components for any damage that may have occurred during shipment. IMPORTANT: If loss or damage is noted at time of delivery, have the person(s) making delivery note all damage on the freight bill and affix his signature under the consignor's memo of loss or damage. Essential loads are grouped together and wired into the transfer switch. TO THE INSTALLER: Consult with Standby Generator System owner(s) to discuss their "Selection of Essential Circuits", described in owner's manual. Ensure that the total of the selected load circuits fed by this transfer switch are within the generator's rated capacity. The following requirements apply to this type of isolation system: · This is the maximum load rating of the essential loads. All wiring must conform to national, state and local codes.

[. . . ] Most warranty repairs are handled routinely, but sometimes requests for warranty service may not be appropriate. For example, warranty service would not apply if equipment damage occurred because of misuse, lack of routine maintenance, shipping, handling, warehousing or improper installation. similarly , the warranty is void if the manufacturing date or the serial number on the equipment has been removed or the equipment has been altered or modified. During the warranty period, the Authorized Service Dealer, at its option, will repair or replace any part that, upon examination, is found to be defective under normal use and service. [. . . ]
