FIGURE 4-1:Honeywell Portable Electrical Generator Controls and Components (HW5500EL Model Illustrated)

A—Power Control Center

Electrical Outlets

•125VAC 20 Amp Duplex (NEMA 5-20R) outlets to connect 120V appliances to generator for power.

•125/250VAC 30 Amp Twist-Lock (NEMA L14-30R) outlet (on select models) can be used to power appliances using appropriate (NEMA L14-30P) power cord (with select models) or connect a transfer switch (not included) to a building’s main electrical system for backup power.

Breakers

Protects circuits from damage caused by

overload or short-circuit by stopping the flow

of electricity from the generator to the appli- Set Tripped ance. Master circuit breaker controls power

to all outlets. If there is no power at outlets, see TROUBLESHOOTING, page 8-1.

HW3000 / HW3000L models only:

•15-amp circuit breaker (left outlet)

•10-amp circuit breaker (right outlet)

Ground Terminal

Connects generator to ground wire for grounding protec- tion.

CAUTION

Generator must be grounded to prevent electrical shock from faulty appliances.

B—Battery Tray and Battery (Electric start models only)

Provides power for electric start feature.

C—Oil Fill Dipstick

Seals off engine oil fill hole and provides indicator for engine oil level.

D—Oil Drain Screw

Allows engine oil to drain from generator.

E—Engine Control Switch

Control used to start and stop the engine ignition system.

•START—Starts generator engine (electric start models)

•RUN—Prepares engine to start (manual start models); Indicates engine is currently running (electric start mod- els)

•STOP—Stops generator engine by inhibiting ignition

F—Fuel Shut-off Valve

Controls flow of fuel from fuel tank to carburetor.

G—Recoil Starter Handle

Provides means to manually start engine, if needed.

H—Air Cleaner Assembly

Removes dust from engine intake air.

I— Choke Control

Controls choke valve. Choke control must be moved to ON position when starting a cold engine.

J—Fuel Cap

Provides a secure seal on fuel tank.

K—Fuel Gage

Indicates level of fuel currently in fuel tank.

L—Muffler Equipped with Spark Arrestor

Provides outlet for engine exhaust. Prevents sparks and other combustible materials from escaping generator.

WARNING

Muffler reaches temperatures that can cause serious burns if touched. NEVER touch hot surfaces.

M—Spark Plug Cap (Wire)

Delivers voltage to spark plug. When spark plug needs service, cap must be removed.

N—Carbon Canister (Model numbers ending in “L” only)

Reduces hydrocarbon emissions.
