Figure 3. Generator Components

1.120/240V Output Receptacle – NEMA L14-30R twist- lock receptacle will provide 240V, 60 Hz @ 20.8 amps, or 120V@ 41.6 amps (X2) 60 Hz. Depending on the position of the full power switch.

2.120V Output Receptacle – NEMA L5-30Rtwist-lock receptacle will provide 120V, 30 amps, 60 Hz.

3.120V Output Receptacle – NEMA L5-20Rtwist-lock receptacle will provide 120V, 20 amps, 60 Hz.

4.Lifting Ball 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.

5.GFCI Sensing Module – Interrupts power when a ground fault exist.

6.Main Breaker – This 2-pole, 23 amp circuit breaker protects the generator from short circuiting or overloading. When starting the generator always have the circuit breaker placed in the "OFF" position.

7.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.

8.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.

9.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).

10.GFCI Duplex Receptacles – NEMA 5-20R, GFCI receptacle will provide 120V@ 20 amps.

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

12.Charcoal Canister – A container filled with activated charcoal that traps gasoline vapors emitted by the fuel system.

13.Start Switch – Press this pushbutton switch to start the generator (GA6HEB only).

14.Battery – This unit is equipped with a 12 VDC battery. Replace with only recommended type battery (GA6HEB only).
