Safe Operating Precautions

DC Operation

Disconnecting the Battery Charging Cable:

1.Stop the generator.

2.Disconnect the black lead of the battery charging cable from the negative (-) battery terminal and then the lead from the positive (+) battery terminal.

3.Unplug the battery charging cable from the DC receptacle. See page 19.

4.Connect the vehicle battery ground cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.

SMART Throttle System

With the SMART throttle switch in the ON position, engine speed is automatically lowered when loads are reduced, turned off, or disconnected. When devices are turned on or connected, the engine returns to the proper speed to power the electrical load. When the smart throttle is in the OFF position, the engine runs at rated load RPM

Appliances with large start-up power demands may not allow the engine to reach normal operating RPM when they are connected to the generator. Position the SMART throttle switch to OFF and connect the device to the generator. If the engine still will not reach normal operating speed, ensure the device does not exceed the rated load capacity of the generator.

If high electrical loads are simultaneously connected, position the SMART throttle switch to OFF to reduce voltage changes.

The SMART throttle system is not effective for use with devices or appliances requiring only momentary power. If the device or appliance will be quickly turned on and off, the SMART throttle switch should be in the OFF position. When using the DC output, position the SMART throttle switch to OFF.
