OPERATION

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 30 seconds to stabilize internal temperatures of engine and alternator.

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

4.Move fuel valve to “Off” position.

RECEPTACLES

The control panel is equipped with a flip-up panel to keep the outlets clean and protected. A double pole rocker switch circuit breaker is provided to protect all the receptacles and generator against electrical overload.

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”.
