6200W Portable Generator

3.Start engine according to instructions given in the engine owner’s manual.

NOTE: If engine starts after 3 pulls but fails to run, or if unit shuts down during operation, make sure unit is on a level surface and check for proper oil level in crankcase.

This unit may be equipped with a low oil protection device. See engine manual.

WARNING

Running engines produce heat.Temperature of muffler and nearby areas can reach or exceed 150°F (65°C).

Severe burns can occur on contact.

Combustible debris, such as leaves, grass, brush, ect. can catch fire.

•DO NOT touch hot surfaces.

•Allow equipment to cool before touching.

•Keep at least 2 feet of clearance on all sides of generator for adequate ventilation.

•In the State of California a spark arrester is required by law (Section 4442 of the California Public Resources Code). Other states may have similar laws. Federal laws apply on federal lands. If you equip the muffler with a spark arrester, it must be maintained in effective working order.

Connecting Electrical Loads

•Let engine stabilize and warm up for a few minutes after starting.

•Plug in and turn on the desired 120 and/or 240 Volt AC, single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads.

•DO NOT connect 240 Volt loads to the 120 Volt duplex receptacles.

•DO NOT connect 3–phase loads to the generator.

•DO NOT connect 50 Hz loads to the generator.

RECEPTACLES

CAUTION

Receptacles may be marked with rating value greater than generator output capacity.

•NEVER attempt to power a device requiring more amperage than generator or receptacle can supply.

•DO NOT overload the generator. See “Don’t Overload Generator”.

120/240 Volt AC, 30 Amp, Locking Receptacle

Use a NEMA L14–30 plug with this receptacle. Connect a 4–wire cord set rated for 250 Volt AC loads at 30 Amps (or greater) (Figure 5).You can use the same 4–wire cord if you plan to run a 120 Volt load.

•DO NOT OVERLOAD THE GENERATOR. See “Don’t Overload Generator”.

Stopping the Engine

1.Turn OFF and unplug all electrical loads from generator panel receptacles. NEVER start or stop engine with electrical devices plugged in and turned ON.

2.Let engine run at no-load for several minutes to stabilize internal temperatures of engine and generator.

3.Turn engine off according to instructions given in the engine owner’s manual.

4.Move fuel valve to “Off” position.

This receptacle powers 120/240 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 6,200 watts of power (6.2 kW) at 25.8 Amps for 240 Volts or two independent 120 Volt loads at 25.8 Amps each.The outlet is protected by push–to–reset circuit breakers.

120 Volt AC, 20 Amp, Duplex Receptacles

Each duplex receptacle (Figure 6) is protected against overload by a push–to–reset circuit breaker.
