Figure 3. Generator Components

1.GFCI Breakers (2) – These single pole circuit breakers (120V, 15 amps) protect the GFCI receptacles. When starting the generator always have these circuit breakers placed in the "OFF" position.

2.30 Amp Breaker – Single pole 30 amp circuit breaker protects the 120V twist-lock receptacle. When starting the generator always have this circuit breaker placed in the "OFF" position.

3.20 Amp Breaker – 2-pole 20 amp circuit breaker protects the 240V twist-lock receptacle. When starting the generator always have this circuit breaker placed in the "OFF" position.

4.30 Amp Breaker – 2-pole 30 amp circuit breaker protects the 120/240V twist-lock receptacle. When starting the generator always have this circuit breaker placed in the "OFF" position.

5.AC-Voltmeter – This voltmeter indicates (with a mark) the rated 60 Hz (single-phase) output voltage. In addition the voltmeter can also be used as a diagnostic tool. If the voltmeter indicator (needle) is below the rated voltage, engine problems may exist (low/high RPM's). To prevent damage to the generator or power tools turn the generator OFF and consult your authorized Multiquip service dealer.

6.Idle Control Switch – The generator is provided with an automatic idle control device for noise suppression and reduced fuel consumption.

The automatic idle control automatically engages under

a no-load condition. With the automatic idle control switched “ON”, the engine revolutions will automatically drop to about 2600 rpm (low-speed operation) within 3 seconds after the load stops. When the operation is resumed, the engine speed is automatically increased to about 3600 rpm (high-speed operation) as soon as the load is connected.

7.Operation Switch – Place switch in the "ON" position (up) for normal operation. To turn-off the generator, place the operation switch in the "OFF" position (down).

8.Start Button – Press this pushbutton switch to start the generator.

9.Main Breaker – 2-pole 35 amp circuit breaker protects the generator from short circuiting or overloading. When starting the generator always have this circuit breaker placed in the "OFF" position.

10.120/240V Output Receptacle – NEMA L14-30R twist- lock receptacle will provide 120/240V, 30 amps, 60 Hz.

11.240V Output Receptacle – NEMA L6-20Rtwist-lock receptacle will provide 240V, 20 amps, 60 Hz.

12.120V Output Receptacle – NEMA L5-30Rtwist-lock receptacle will provide 120V, 30 amps, 60 Hz.

13.GFCI Duplex Receptacle – NEMA 5-20R, GFCI receptacle will provide 120V, 20 amps.

14.Ground Lug – This ground connection point should be connect to a good earth ground (ground rod).
