GA-6H/GA-6HA — GENERATOR OPERATION/SHUTDOWN

5.Read the voltmeter on the front panel of the generators (Figure 21) and verify that 240 VAC is present at the 240V twist-lock receptacle. Using an external voltmeter verify that 120V is present at the 120V twist-lock and GFCI duplex receptacles.

Stopping the Engine

1.Place the main circuit breaker (Figure 22) in the OFF position.

Figure 22. Main Circuit Breakers (Off)

2.Place the idle control switch (Figure 23) in the OFF position.

Figure 23. Idle Control Switch (Off)

3.Let the engine run at idle with no load for 2-3 minutes.

4.To shut-down the engine, place the generator's operation switch (Figure 24) in the OFF position.

When the full power switch is in the 240

NOTE volt (down) position, you can take up to half of the rated power of the generating set at 120 volts from the GFCI duplex

receptacle and up to half of the rated power of the set at 120 volts from the 120V twist-lock receptacle; or full rated power of the genset at 240 volts from the 240V twist-lock receptacle.

5.Place the engine fuel valve lever (Figure 25) to the "OFF" position.”

When using a combination of dual

NOTE receptacles, total load should not exceed the rated capacity of the generator.

Connecting the Load

1.If small wattage power tools are required, connect them to the 60 Hz output receptacles at this time.
