GA-4.5R/GA-4.5RA — CONTROLS AND INDICATORS

Figure 2A. Generator Controls and Components

1.

Lifting Bail Eye – Attach a rope or chain to this lifting eye

 

when lifting of the generator is required. Never stand

 

underneath the generator while it is being lifted. Place lifting

 

eye in down position when not in use.

2.

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 MQ service dealer.

3. Idle Control Switch – This unit is provided with an automatic idle control 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.

4. Operation Switch – Place this rocker switch in the "RUN" position (up) for normal operation.To turn-off the generator place this switch in the "STOP" position (down).

5. GFCI Duplex Receptacle – NEMA 5-20R receptacle will provide 120V, 20 amps.The position of the full power switch does not effect the voltage output at the receptacle. The GA-4.5RA has two GFCI receptacles.

6. 120 VAC Receptacle – NEMA L5-20R twist-lock receptacle will provide 120V, 20 amps when the full power switch is placed in either the 120 or 240 volt position.

7. 120 VAC Receptacle – NEMA L5-30R twist-lock receptacle will provide 120V when the full power switch is placed in either the 120 or 240 volt position.

8. 240 VAC Receptacle – NEMA L14-20R twist-lock receptacle will provide 240V when the full power switch is placed in the 240/120 volt position (down). When the full power switch is placed in the 120 volt position (up), 120V will be available.

9. Main Circuit Breaker – 2-pole circuit breaker (240V/18.75 amps or 120V/30.8 amps) protects the generator from short circuiting or overloading. When starting the generator always have the circuit breaker placed in the "OFF" position.

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