OPERATION

Connecting Electrical Loads

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

Plug in and turn on the desired 120 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.

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

CAUTION

Exceeding generator’s wattage/amperage capacity can damage generator and/or electrical devices connected to it.

See “Don’t Overload Generator”.

Start generator and let engine stabilize before connecting electrical loads.

Connect electrical loads in OFF position, then turn ON for operation.

Turn electrical loads OFF and disconnect from generator before stopping 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.Move on/off switch to “Off” position.

CAUTION

Backfire, fire or engine damage could occur.

DO NOT stop engine by moving choke lever to “Choke” position.

4.Move fuel valve to “Off” position.

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 Volt AC, 20 Amp, Duplex Receptacles

Each duplex receptacle (Figure 7) is protected against overload by a push–to–reset circuit breaker.

Figure 7 — 120 Volt, 20 Amp Duplex Receptacles

Use each receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, single–phase, 60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to 2,400 watts (2.4 kW) at 20 Amps of current. Use cord sets that are rated for 125 Volt AC loads at 20 Amps (or greater).
