operation

7.Before the generators is placed into operation, run the engine for 3-5 minutes. Check for abnormal smells, fuel leaks, and noises that would associate with lose components.

8.Place the idle control switch (Figure 14) in the OFF (down) position.This will allow the engine speed to run at about 3600 RPM's.

Figure 14. Idle Control Switch (OFF)

NOTICE

Placing the idle control switch in the OFF position (Figure 14) allows the engine to operate at a maximum speed of about 3600 RPM's.

When the idle control switch (Figure 15) is placed in the up position (ON), the generator will run at idle speed (2200 RPM's) until a load is applied, at that time the engine speed will increase to 3600 RPM's as long as a load is being applied.

When the load is not in use, the engine speed will drop back to the idle mode after about 3 seconds.

10.Read the voltmeter on the front panel of the generator (Figure 17) and verify that 120 VAC is present at the 120V twist-lock and GFCI duplex receptacles. For

additional verification of voltage, an external voltmeter can be used to measure the output voltage as shown in Figure 17.

11.Read the voltmeter on the front panel of the generator (Figure 18) and verify that 240 VAC is present at the 240V twist-lock receptacle. Using an external voltmeter verify that 240V is present at the 240V twist-lock receptacle.

NOTICE

When using a combination of dual receptacles, total load should not exceed the rated capacity of the generator.

12.Connecting of loads (power tools, lighting ect.) to the generator receptacles can now be done.
