Connecting the Battery Charging Cable

The DC charging output is not regulated. The DC receptacle should only be used for charging 12V DC batteries. The 12V DC receptacle has no battery overcharge protection function. Do not overcharge the battery. The DC output is to be used to charge batteries only. Serious damage to the stator windings can occur if connected to a DC motor or transformer.

This generator is not designed to operate DC motors. Output voltage is 15-30V. DC output will vary according to the position of the Smart throttle switch.

1.Disconnect the vehicle ground cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

2.Plug the battery charging cable into the DC receptacle.

3.Connect the red lead of the battery charging cable to the positive (+) battery terminal and then the black lead to negative (-) battery terminal. Do not reverse the charging cables or serious damage to the generator and/or battery may occur.

4.Start the generator.

The DC receptacle may be used while the AC power is in use.
