STOW G-4.5R — CONTROLS AND INDICATORS

1. Idle Control Switch – This unit is provided with an automatic idle control 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.

2.

Operation Switch – Place this rocker switch in the "RUN"

 

position (up) for normal operation.To turn-off the generator

 

place this switch in the "STOP" position (down).

3.

Main Circuit Breaker – This 2-pole 15 amp breaker

 

protects the generator from short circuiting or overloading.

 

When starting the generator always have the circuit breaker

 

placed in the "OFF" position.

4.

Full Power Switch – This generator is provided with a full

 

power switch. Figures 3B and 3C show simplified wiring

 

diagrams of the dual voltage system. When the full power

 

switch is in the 120 volt (up) position, you can take up full

 

rated power of the generator at 120 volts from the GFCI

duplex receptacle, 120 volts at the 120 volt twist-lock receptacle, or a combination of both receptacles as long as the total load does not exceed the generator's capacity.

Simplified Wiring Diagram

When the full power switch is in the 240 volt (down) position, you can take up to half of the rated power of the generator at 120 volts from the GFCI receptacle and up to half of the rated power of the generator at 120 volts from the twist-lock 120 volt receptacle; or full rated power of the generator at 240 volts from the twist-lock 240 volt receptacle.

When the full power switch is in the 120

NOTE

volt position, the 240V receptacle cannot

be used.

5. 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 STOW service dealer.

6. 240 VAC Receptacle, 20 Amps – This receptacle will provide 240V when the full power switch is placed in the 240/120 volt position (down). Applies to units with S/N 5498030 and below.

7. 120 VAC Receptacle, 30 Amps – This receptacle will provide 120V when the full power switch is placed in either the 120 or 240 volt position. Applies to units with S/N 5498030 and below.

8. GFCI Receptacle, 20 Amps – This receptacle will provide 120V at all times no matter the position of the full power switch. Applies to all units.

9. 120 VAC Receptacle, 30 Amps – This receptacle will provide 120V when the full power switch is placed in either the 120 or 240 volt position. Applies to units with S/N 5498031 and above.

10. 120 VAC Receptacle, 20 Amps – This receptacle will provide 120V when the full power switch is placed in either the 120 or 240 volt position. Applies to units with S/N 5498031 and above.

11. 240 VAC Receptacle, 20 Amps – This receptacle will provide 240V when the full power switch is placed in the 240/120 volt position (down). Applies to units with S/N 5498031 and above
