These Kohler M340+ automatic transfer switches usually sit in plant rooms or electrical closets, quietly handling the swap between utility and generator power. This manual is what I’d keep on the bench when I’ve got a switch open and need to match every contactor, relay, harness, and bracket to the right part number before ordering. If, for example, a transfer fails and I find a burned terminal block or a damaged sensing board, this book lets me trace how that piece ties into the rest of the assembly and pick the exact replacement instead of guessing.
Applications & Use Cases
FAQ
Q: Can I use this manual on a tablet at the jobsite?
A: Yes, it’s practical to keep a digital copy; you can zoom in on diagrams and search part designations while standing at the switchboard.
Q: Should I still print pages from it?
A: Printing the relevant parts sheets for a specific job helps you mark items, note quantities, and keep everything straight during teardown and reassembly.
Safety Note
Always isolate and verify all power sources are de-energized before opening or servicing any automatic transfer switch.
