Introduction
Read this manual thoroughly before operating or
servicing this unit.
Warnings, Cautions, and Notices
Safety advisories appear throughout this manual as
required. Your personal safety and the proper operation of
this machine depend upon the strict observance of these
precautions.
The three types of advisories are defined as follows:
WARNING Indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could
result in death or serious injury.
CAUTIONsIndicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could
result in minor or moderate injury. It
could also be used to alert against
unsafe practices.
NOTICE Indicates a situation that could result in
equipment or property-damage only
accidents.
Important Environmental Concerns
Scientific research has shown that certain man-made
chemicals can affect the earth’s naturally occurring
stratospheric ozone layer when released to the
atmosphere. In particular, several of the identified
chemicals that may affect the ozone layer are refrigerants
that contain Chlorine, Fluorine and Carbon (CFCs) and
those containing Hydrogen, Chlorine, Fluorine and
Carbon (HCFCs). Not all refrigerants containing these
compounds have the same potential impact to the
environment. Trane advocates the responsible handling
of all refrigerants-including industry replacements for
CFCs such as HCFCs and HFCs.
Important Responsible Refrigerant
Practices
Trane believes that responsible refrigerant practices are
important to the environment, our customers, and the air
conditioning industry. All technicians who handle
refrigerants must be certified. The Federal Clean Air Act
(Section 608) sets forth the requirements for handling,
reclaiming, recovering and recycling of certain
refrigerants and the equipment that is used in these
service procedures. In addition, some states or
municipalities may have additional requirements that
must also be adhered to for responsible management of
refrigerants. Know the applicable laws and follow them.
WARNING
Proper Field Wiring and Grounding
Required!
Failure to follow code could result in death or serious
injury. All field wiring MUST be performed by qualified
personnel. Improperly installed and grounded field
wiring poses FIRE and ELECTROCUTION hazards. To
avoid these hazards, you MUST follow requirements for
field wiring installation and grounding as described in
NEC and your local/state electrical codes.
WARNING
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Required!
Installing/servicing this unit could result in exposure to
electrical, mechanical and chemical hazards.
• Before installing/servicing this unit, technicians
MUST put on all PPE required for the work being
undertaken (Examples; cut resistant gloves/sleeves,
butyl gloves, safety glasses, hard hat/bump cap, fall
protection, electrical PPE and arc flash clothing).
ALWAYS refer to appropriate Material Safety Data
Sheets (MSDS)/Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and OSHA
guidelines for proper PPE.
• When working with or around hazardous chemicals,
ALWAYS refer to the appropriate MSDS/SDS and
OSHA/GHS (Global Harmonized System of
Classification and Labelling of Chemicals) guidelines
for information on allowable personal exposure
levels, proper respiratory protection and handling
instructions.
• If there is a risk of energized electrical contact, arc, or
flash, technicians MUST put on all PPE in accordance
with OSHA, NFPA 70E, or other country-specific
requirements for arc flash protection, PRIOR to
servicing the unit. NEVER PERFORM ANY
SWITCHING, DISCONNECTING, OR VOLTAGE
TESTING WITHOUT PROPER ELECTRICAL PPE AND
ARC FLASH CLOTHING. ENSURE ELECTRICAL
METERS AND EQUIPMENT ARE PROPERLY RATED
FOR INTENDED VOLTAGE.
Failure to follow instructions could result in death or
serious injury.

WARNING
Follow EHS Policies!
Failure to follow instructions below could result in
death or serious injury.
• All Trane personnel must follow the company’s
Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) policies
when performing work such as hot work, electrical,
fall protection, lockout/tagout, refrigerant handling,
etc. Where local regulations are more stringent than
these policies, those regulations supersede these
policies.
• Non-Trane personnel should always follow local
regulations.

The lifting machinery and each of the cables (chains or
slings) used to lift the unit must be capable of
supporting the entire weight of the unit. Lifting cables
(chains or slings) may not be of the same length. Adjust
as necessary for even unit lift. Other lifting
arrangements could cause equipment or property
damage. Failure to follow the safety requirements in
this section could result in an improper lift, which could
result in death or serious personal injury, as well as
property damage.
1. Turn off pump (move lever down) and close generator
port valves.
2. Be sure filler cap is on and closed securely.
3. Be sure all outlets are securely closed/plugged with
plugs provided by the manufacturer.
4. Ensure outer tank is empty of spillage.
5. Close and padlock hatch to prevent vibration releasing
the catch.

Operation
WARNING
Flammable Fluids!
Diesel fuel is flammable and poses a fire hazard. Do not
expose the fuel to excessive heat, pressure, or open
flames or sparks. Failure to follow the safety
requirements in this section could result in death or
serious personal injury, as well as property damage due
to fire or explosion.
WARNING
Safety Requirements!
Failure to follow the safety guidelines in this section
could result in death or serious personal injury.
• Use only for the transport of diesel fuel for refueling
equipment or standby generators.
• Keep the tank level when filling.
• Fill only with a hand-held trigger nozzle. Take special
care not to spill any fuel on the ground or in the
interstice.
• Do not smoke when refueling. Keep sparks flames and
hot material away from fuel and tank.
• Do not overfill; 95 percent is the maximum legal limit.
• Always replace filler cap and turn pump off (lever
down) when refueling finished.
• Store diesel hose and nozzle inside outer tank.
• Close all valve outlets and lock lid when transporting
on a public highway.
• Check for fluid in outer tank and empty regularly. Refer
to maintenance manual for detailed procedure.
If tank is used for refueling:
1. Place fuel tank in a place where it can be leveled as
much as possible.
2. Unlock and open hatch lid.
3. Pull out refueling hose and nozzle, see Figure 2 below.
4. Extend it to the tank to be refueled.
5. Connect female end of quick coupler into male end of
quick coupler on the pump discharge.
6. Open fuel feed line/valve on fuel tank.
7. Connect a power supply to the pump (minimum 20
amp rating).
8. Turn the pump on by lifting lever located on the side of
the pump.
9. Use the hand-held nozzle to transfer the fuel.
10. Fill to no more than 95 percent of capacity. This is the
maximum allowed in order to account for fuel
expansion. Do not overfill.
11. Turn the pump off when the refueling is completed.
If tank is used as constant fuel supply:
Supply
1. Place fuel tank in a place where it can be leveled as
much as possible.
2. Connect female quick-coupler (See Figure 3) into feed
line on fuel tank.
3. Extend as much hose as required.
4. Connect swivel-type coupling (See Figure 6 below)
into generator supply connection.
5. Screw in female quick-coupler with threaded end hose
(See Figure 4) into swivel coupler. .
6. Make sure to bleed air from system.
Return
1. Connect male quick-coupler into the return line on the
fuel tank.
2. Extend as much hose as required.
3. Connect swivel-type coupling into generator return
connection.
4. Screw in male quick-coupler with threaded end hose
(See Figure 5) into swivel coupler.
Note: Make sure valves on generator fuel tank are placed
so that it draws fuel out of fuel reservoir.
Note: These recommendations are written for a
generator with a 1-inch NPT female thread to attach
into. Alternate connections will require adapters to
be supplied by the customer.
Tip: When performing installation of hoses it is
considered good practice to start at the Fuel Tank
and work your way to the Generator connections.
