and RC2 are not always available

 

 

 

 

 

at the same time. When welding,

 

 

 

 

 

generator power is available from

 

 

See Section

 

AC receptacle RC3 only (see

. Generator power is available at

 

 

 

 

 

receptacles RC1 and RC2 only at

 

 

 

 

 

1800 rpm. If generator is not

 

 

 

 

 

locked at 1800 rpm, engine

 

 

 

 

 

speed increases in response to

 

 

 

 

 

weld load and generator power

 

 

 

 

 

output stops at receptacles RC1

 

 

 

 

 

and RC2. Generator power load

 

 

 

 

 

does not affect engine speed.
