Install the Support Leg
NOTICE
Some generator models will require removing rubber pads
prior to installing the support leg. The support leg will use the
same holes as the rubber pads.

the necessary hardware and recycle the unused hardware
according to your local municipalities instructions.
1. Attach the support leg to the generator frame by sliding the
flange bolts M8 x 16 DOWN through the top of the frame
