WARNING
Be sure that any electrical equipment plugged into the generator AC power receptacles can withstand a ±10% voltage and a ±3% frequency variation.
The AC auxiliary power, supplied as a standard, has a rating of 3.0 kVA of 115/230V AC power (60 hertz).
One 115V duplex and one 230V duplex grounding type receptacle are provided. The circuit is protected with circuit breakers.
The rating of 3.0 kVA permits a maximum continuous current of 13 amps to be drawn from the 230 volt duplex receptacle. Or a total of 26 amps can be drawn from the 115 volt duplex receptacle. The 115 volt duplex receptacle permits 15 amps to be drawn from either half. The total combined load of all receptacles must not exceed 3.0 kVA.
An optional power plug kit is available. When this kit is specified, the customer is supplied with a plug for each receptacle. See the Accessories section of this man- ual.
An optional GFCI 115 volt receptacle kit is also avail- able. Note that the use of this GFCI kit reduces avail- able current to a total of 20 Amps of available 115 volt power. See the Accessories section of this manual.
To use the generator as an auxiliary power supply:
1.Start the diesel engine. See Engine Operation in this section of the manual.
2.Set the IDLER switch to AUTO. Set the CURRENT RANGE SELECTOR to “MAX.” SeeFigure B.1.
3.Plug the load(s) into the appropriate 115 volt or 230 volt power receptacle.
