◆1.6.5 EMISSIONS COMPLIANCE PERIOD

For nonhandled engines the Emissions Compliance Period referred to on the Emissions Compliance Label indicates the number of operating hours for which the engine has been shown to meet Federal emission requirements.

•For engines less than 225 cc displacement, Category C=125 hours, B=250 hours, and A=500 hours.

•For engines of 225 cc or more, Category C=250 hours, B=500 hours, and A=1000 hours.

2.1GENERATOR CONTROL PANEL

The following features are mounted on the generator control panel (Figure 2.1):

◆2.1.1 FUEL PRIMER

Before starting a cold engine (if it has not been start- ed in more than two weeks), you must press this switch for approximately ten seconds to bring fuel from the tank to the fuel pump. This rocker type switch springs back into its original position when you release it.

◆2.1.2 START/STOP SWITCH

To crank and start the engine, hold this switch in the START position. Release the switch when the engine starts. To stop an operating engine, press and hold the switch in the STOP position until the engine shuts off. The switch center position is the RUN position.

◆2.1.3 15 AMP FUSE

The fuse protects the engine’s DC control circuit against electrical overload. If the fuse element has melted open due to overloading, the engine cannot be cranked. If you must replace the fuse, use only an identical 15 amp replacement fuse.

◆2.1.4 LINE BREAKERS

Protects generator’s AC output circiut against overload, i.e., prevents unit from exceeding wattage/amperage capacity. This unit has two 30-amp breakers.
