OPERATION

Safe Operating Precautions

AC Operation

Note: Should this current be exceeded, the circuit protection device will activate and cut all current to the receptacle. This will be indicated by the push button popping out. Unplug everything that is plugged into the receptacle and reset the circuit protector by pushing in the button and then push in the Overload Reset switch.

Should the generator's maximum load of 25 amps be exceeded, AC power will be cut off but the engine will stay running, This will be indicated by the push button popping out. Correct the overload condition, reduce the load to the receptacle and reset the circuit protector by pushing in the button. AC power will be restored immediately.

AC Capacity

In case of substantial overloading, the electronic circuit protector will activate. Slightly overloading the generator or running at maximum power operation (30 minutes) may not switch the circuit ON, but will shorten the service life of the generator.

Maximum power is:

3.0 kW

For continuous operation, do not exceed rated power:

2.8 kW

Consider the total power requirements of all connected devices. Appliance and power-tool manufacturers usually list the rating information near the model or serial number. After plugging in a device, allow the generator to stabilize before plugging in additional items. Always consider the generator capacity before plugging in any device.
