Equipment Operation

To prevent serious injury

and death:

DO NOT CONNECT GENERATOR directly TO HOUSEHOLD WIRING.

A portable electric generator that is connected to your household wiring without a proper cut off switch can ‘back feed’ into the power lines connected to your home. Power created by your generator can injure or even kill a utility lineman making outage repairs many miles away.

Only a certified electrician can safely connect the generator to your home’s wiring.

1.Make sure your generator is properly grounded to avoid electrical shocks. Connect a 10 gauge or larger insulated copper wire to the Ground Wire Connection on the Control Panel. Connect this wire to a suitable external ground, such as a copper stake in the ground.

2.Don’t overload the generator. The total wattage used by the appliances should be less than the output rating of the generator. If you put too many appliances on the generator, it could seriously damage the appliances and electronics. Overloading the generator could also cause fires in the power cord. This generator is rated at 3050 / 3500 Watts.

NOTE: At start-up, appliances draw more power in a surge than they do during continuous operation. When figur- ing total wattage of all appliances connected to this generator, use the higher start-up amperage rating of each appliance.

3.Do not exceed the current limit specified for any one receptacle.

4.Move the AC Circuit Breaker Switch to the ON position.

5.Plug in your extension cord or appliance.

6.Be sure that all appliances are in good working order before connecting them to the generator. If an appliance begins to operate abnormally, becomes sluggish, or stops suddenly, turn off the AC Circuit Breaker and the generator Engine Power Switch immediately. Then disconnect the appliance and examine it for signs of malfunction.
