Choke Knob

CONTROLS AND FEATURES

Choke Knob

By moving to the CLOSE position, the choke knob (A) provides proper starting mixture when the engine is cold. Operates by being placed in the OPEN or CLOSE position.

OPENCLOSED

Indicator Panel

Low Oil Indicator

The low oil alarm system is designed to prevent engine damage caused by an insufficient amount of oil in the crankcase. Before the oil level in the crankcase falls below a safe limit, the low oil alarm system will automatically shut down the engine (the engine switch will remain in the ON position).

If the low oil alarm system shuts down the engine the red low oil alarm indicator light will come on when you operate the starter, and the engine will not run. If this occurs, search for any oil leaks. Add engine oil to resume normal operation.

Overload Indicator

If the generator is overloaded to the point that the max power rating of 25 amps is exceeded or if there is a short in the connected appliance the output indicator will go out and the overload indicator will go on and current to the connected appliance will be shut off. Stop the engine if the overload indicator light comes ON and investigate the overload source.

Output Indicator

The green output indicator light will remain on during normal operating conditions. If the generator is overloaded to the point that the max power rating of 25 amps is exceeded or if there is a short in the connected appliance the output indicator will go out.
