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

To protect the generator engine from damage, the engine is equipped with a Low Oil Protection reliability feature.

When the engine has been shut down for refueling or other purposes and the oil level is low, the Low Oil Protection will prevent the engine from restarting until sufficient oil has been added. NOTE: The Low Oil Protection mechanism is very sensitive. You must fill the engine to the full mark on the dipstick to inactivate this safety device.

IMPORTANT: Low Oil Protection will not automatically shut down the engine if oil level becomes low while the engine is running. Always check engine oil level before starting the engine.

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.

IDLE CONTROL

Choose the correct application.

1.For normal application such as power tools, small electric appliances, light bulbs, and radios:

Place the idle control switch in the ON position. The generator will idle down when there is no load. This lowers the engine noise, saves on fuel consumption, and engine life.

2.Idling down IS NOT recommend on large motors (refrigerators,

freezers, etc) or voltage sensitive electronic equipment (computers, televisions, etc). For these applications:

Place the idle control switch in the OFF position.
