Powering Tools And Equipment:

1.Prior to powering tools and equipment, make sure the Generator’s rated voltage, wattage, and amperage capacity (120V/ 15 AMP and 240V/ 15 AMP) is adequate to supply all electrical loads that the unit will power. If powering exceeds the Generator’s capacity, it may be necessary to group one or more of the tools and/or equipment for connection to a separate Generator.

2.Once the Generator is running, simply connect the Power Cords of 120 volt powered tools and equipment into the 120 volt Outlets (43). If a 240 volt tool or equipment is used, connect its power cord into the 240 volt Twistlock Outlet (44). (See Figure I.)

3.NOTE: The Generator features two AC Non-Fuse Overload Breakers (42) to protect the AC circuit in case of an overload. Should an overload occur one or both of the Breakers will “trip”, interrupting the circuit (disconnecting power to the connected tools and/or equipment). In this case, refer to Step #1 in this section. Then, reset the circuitry system by depressing the Breaker(s). Restart the Generator and continue powering the remaining tools and equipment. (See Figure I.)

4.When finished using the Generator, turn the ON/OFF switch on the engine’s fan shroud to its “OFF” position, and remove the Ignition Key from the Ignition Switch (45). (See Figure H.)

5.After the Engine and Generator have completely cooled, store the Generator in a safe, clean, dry location (if not already installed in one).

90300 specifications

The Chicago Electric 90300 is a versatile and powerful tool that stands out in the realm of portable generators, tailored for both personal and professional use. With a design focused on efficiency and reliability, it serves as an ideal solution for applications ranging from home backup power to outdoor activities like camping or tailgating.

One of the main features of the Chicago Electric 90300 is its robust 2,500-watt peak power and a continuous output of 2,500 watts. This capacity is more than sufficient for powering essential appliances such as refrigerators, lights, and other household equipment during outages. It’s particularly valued for its ability to deliver surge power, enabling it to handle higher wattage appliances temporarily without compromising performance.

The generator is equipped with a 7-horsepower, four-stroke engine, which not only enhances its operational capabilities but also promotes fuel efficiency. This engine runs on gasoline, allowing for easy access to fuel and convenient operation. The inclusion of a low oil shutoff feature ensures that the engine stops running when the oil level dips below a certain threshold, thereby extending the generator's life and preventing potential damage.

The Chicago Electric 90300 features a user-friendly control panel, which includes multiple outlets, making it easy to connect various devices simultaneously. The panel typically includes standard 120V outlets, ensuring compatibility with most household appliances. Additionally, some models may include USB ports for charging smaller devices, catering to the modern user's needs.

Portability is another critical aspect of the Chicago Electric 90300. The generator comes with a sturdy frame and built-in wheels, making it easy to transport to different locations, whether for emergency usage at home or during recreational outings. Its lightweight design contributes to its ease of mobility, while the durable construction provides the robustness necessary to withstand different environments.

Noise operation is also a factor to consider. The Chicago Electric 90300 operates at a reasonable noise level, making it suitable for use in residential areas and outdoor settings where quiet is preferred.

In summary, the Chicago Electric 90300 is an efficient, reliable, and user-friendly portable generator that meets a variety of power needs. It combines a powerful engine, generous wattage output, safety features, and portability, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a dependable backup power source or a handy tool for outdoor adventures.
