Stopping the engine

Stopping the engine

1.Before stopping, ensure that no electrical apparatus is connected to the generator.

2.Turn the engine switch to the ‘stop’ position.

3.Turn the fuel cock lever anti clockwise to the ‘off’ position.

Connecting apparatus to the generator

1.Start the engine. Allow the motor to run for a couple of minutes to warm up prior to connecting any apparatus to the generator.

2.For AC current, plug the powercord into the AC output socket (10).

3.For DC current, plug into the DC outlet socket (9) located on the side of the generator. To charge your car battery, connect the alligator clips to the corresponding terminals on your battery. The red lead goes to the positive (+) terminal and the black lead goes to the negative (-) terminal. This DC cord has been supplied with the unit.

Warning. Prior to connecting any appliance to the generator, check the rating label of the appliance. The generator is rated at 650W so if the appliance being connected is higher than 650W, the protective cut out on the generator may operate to prevent over load damage to the generator. The generator will withstand short operation and spikes up to 850W.

It should also be very clearly understood that output voltage fluctuations will occur when various loads are connected and disconnected. It is NOT recommended to connect any electronic equipment to the generator without a voltage or surge protector. Computers, Televisions, and stereo equipment can be very sensitive to the input supply and could be damaged if protective equipment is not used in conjunction with this generator.

AC and DC overload cut out

Important: Exceeding the rated capacity of your generator can result in serious damage to your generator and connected apparatus.

1.Each receptacle has a circuit breaker to protect the generator from over loading.

2.If the circuit breaker trips, unplug all electrical apparatus from the generator.

3.Let the overload cut out switch cool down.

4.If it is an AC apparatus causing the overload push the AC circuit breaker button (11). If it is the DC apparatus press the “red” DC circuit breaker button (12) located on the side of the generator. Commence to start your generator accordingly.

5.When re connecting appliances, reduce the load to that which previously overloaded the generator.
