OPERATION

ELECTRIC START
CAUTION:DO NOT USE STARTING FLUIDS
BECAUSE VAPORS ARE FLAMMABLE.
Do not actuate starter switch for more than 20 seconds
at a time. If engine does not start, wait 1 minute before
repeating attempt. If engine does not start aftertwo at-
tempts, use the Troubleshooting Guide to find the cause.
Use the following procedure to start the engine.
1. Turn key to 1st position. Warning Light On.
2. Turn key to 2nd position, starting.
3. Return key to 1st position when engine is running.
Note: While the engine is running, all warning
lights should be off. For units equipped with
engine protection, all lights should be off ex-
cept the starting panel OK light.
BREAK-IN PERIOD
During first 50 hours do not exceed 70% of maximum
rated power.
PRE-SHUTDOWN
Run at idle speed for a few minutes.
SHUTDOWN
Turn the throttle lever and/or key to stop position.
CONTROLS

Operator's Manual
Operation
NOTE: The 125 Volt, 30 Amp, 125/250 Volt, 20 Amp
and 125/250 Volt, 30 Amp locking receptacles
ARE NOT GROUND FAULT PROTECTED. If
ground fault protection on these receptacles
is necessary or desired, external protection
devices must be used. Refer to the section on
"Ground Fault Interrupter" for more informa-
tion.
WARNING: NEVER EXCEED THE RATING OF A
RECEPTACLE.
These receptacles are protected against over-
loads by resetting magnetic type circuit break-
ers. If a circuit breaker trips, the cause should
be determined and corrected prior to continu-
ing use.
HOUR METER:
These generators are equipped with an hour meter that
records run time for the unit. This is very useful in sched-
uling maintenance. See periodic maintenance chart for
suggested maintenance schedule.
CABLE SIZE:
Equipment damage can result from low voltage. There-
fore, to prevent excessive voltage drop between the
generator and the equipment, the cable should be of
adequate gauge for the length used. The cable selection
chart gives the maximum cable lengths for various gauges
of wire which can adequately carry the loads shown.
ELECTRIC MOTOR LOADS:
It is characteristic of common electric motors in normal
operation to draw up to six times their running current
while starting. This table may be used to estimate the
watts required to start "CODE G" electric motors.
CAUTION: IF AN ELECTRIC MOTOR FAILS TO
START OR REACH RUNNING SPEED, TURN
OFF THE APPLIANCE OR TOOL IMMEDIATELY
TO AVOID EQUIPMENT DAMAGE. ALWAYS
CHECK THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE TOOL
OR APPLIANCE BEING USED COMPARED TO
THE RATED OUTPUT OF THE GENERATOR.
