OPERATION

KNOW YOUR GENERATOR

Read this General Manual and Safety Rules before operation of your Generator. Compare the illustration in your parts manual with your generator to familiarize yourself with the location of various controls and adjustments. Save all manuals for future references.

GENERATOR CAPACITY

IMPORTANT: Exceeding the rated capacity of your generator can result in serious damage to your generator and connected electrical devices. See the Wattage Calculation section in this manual to assist you in determining the appliances and tools that can be run with the wattage capacity of your generator.

CIRCUIT BREAKERS

Each receptacle has a circuit breaker to protect the generator from overloading. If the circuit breaker trips, unplug all electrical loads from the generator. Let the circuit breaker cool down. Push circuit breaker button to reset.

LOW OIL PROTECTION

Your generator engine is equipped with Low Oil Shutdown. Low Oil Shutdown is a safety device designed to protect your engine from damage in the event the oil level in the crankcase is low.

If while the engine is running, the oil gets low, it will automatically shut itself down and will not restart until the oil is added. If the oil is low before start-up, the generator will not start until oil is added.

NOTE: The Low Oil Shutdown mechanism is very sensitive. You must fill the engine to the full mark on the dipstick to inactivate this safety device.

FULL POWER

When placed in the 120V position it allows you to receive the full capacity of the generator by using all 120 volt receptacles. When in the 120/240 position, you will only be able to receive half the available watts when using the 120 volt re- ceptacles and the full available watts when using the 240 4-prong twistlock receptacle.
