This isn't an auto transfer switch, it is a big ol' handle on a
box...
Would I still need automatic load shedding in this case, or would
manually tripping some breakers in the CU surfuse?

Well what it says is:

"[...] the capacity and operating characteristics of the generating set
shall be such that danger or damage to equipment does not arise after
connection or disconnection of any intended load as a result of the
deviation of the voltage or frequency from the intended operating range.
Means shall be provided to automatically disconnect such parts of the
installation as may be necessary if the capacity of the generating set is
exceeded."

I guess that if you isolate any "unintended loads" before operating the c/o
switch, and if the genny has appropriate overload protection (fuse or cct
breaker) then you'll be OK. The automatic disconnection would then be of
the whole installation if the genny is overloaded.
