LIFAN Power USA ENERGY STORM LF3500 CSA-CA Manuel D'utilisation page 25

USAGE IN HIGH ALTITUDE REGIONS:
In regions with high altitude, the standard carburetor produces overly dense combinations of fuel and air, which
result in decreased engine performance and increased fuel consumption. To maintain high engine performance at
high altitudes, install a high altitude carburetor main spray nozzle and re-‐ ‐ adjust the adjusting screw for idle speed.
For usage in regions with an altitude of over 4,527ft (1380m), contact your dealer to replace the standard carburetor
and make needed adjustments in advance. Even with a proper high altitude carburetor spray nozzle installed in the
engine, the power output of the engine will drop about 3.5% with every 1000ft (305m) increase in altitude. If the
standard carburetor jets are not replaced and adjusted for usage in high altitude, the increased altitude effect will be
even more severe.
NOTE: Usage of the generator in regions with lower altitude than the high altitude carburetor spray nozzle is applicable,
may result in decrease of engine performance. The engine may become over heated and over- ­ ­ lean combination of fuel and
air produced may cause severe damage to the engine.
TRANSFER SWITCH CONNECTIONS - Only allow Professional Electricians
The Lifan EnergyStorm generator is wired with the neutral bonded to ground. If you are connecting your generator
to a transfer switch, the electrician must first determine what type transfer switch is being used. Transfer switches
for this equipment are either two-pole or three- pole types.
A two-pole transfer switch will not switch the neutral from the generator to the service panel. That means the
generator will be grounded to the service panel. To use the generator with two-pole transfer switches, the
electrician will need to change the neutral from bonded to floating.
This is done by removing the jumper wire that connects the alternator ground to the alternator neutral. Remove
the jumper wire and retighten the connections. Keep the jumper wire with the owner's manual in case it is needed
for future use when not connected to a transfer switch.
