resistance (the point in the compression stroke where
the intake and exhaust valves are closed). this helps
to prevent rust while the engine is not in use.
3. if the engine will not be used for six months or longer,
follow the additional instructions on storage.
CONTROLS
CONTROL PANEL :
the generator is equipped with the following items:
• hour Meter
• volt Meter
• Circuit Breakers
• two 25 volt, 20 amp, Duplex (2 outlets), gFCi
protected receptacles.
• One 25 volt, 30 amp, Locking type receptacle.
• One 25/250 volt, 20 amp, Locking type recep
tacle
• One 25/250 volt, 30 amp, Locking type recep
tacle
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.
Operator's Manual
Operating the Generator
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.
VOLT METER:
these generators are equipped with a volt meter. the volt
meter is used to monitor the unit for proper voltage.
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.
