120 VAC, Duplex Receptacle
See
2-3. The 120 Volt outlet is overload

protected by the 15 Amp push button circuit
protector. Each receptacle will power 120 Volt
AC, single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads
requiring up to 1700 watts (1.7 kW).

functions, choke and fuel valve operation.
• The OFF position (1) stops the engine and
shuts off fuel flow.
• The RUN position (2) is for normal opera-
tion and to gradually reduce the use of the
choke.
• The CHOKE position (3) switches the fuel
valve on to start the engine.
NOTE: The CHOKE is not required to start a
warm engine.

Generator Status Lights
See
Figure
• Low Oil Level LED (red): Illuminates when
oil level is below safe operating level.
Engine shuts down (1).
• Overload LED (red): Indicates system
overload (2). During motor starting it is nor-
mal for the overload LED to illuminate for a
few seconds. If LED stays illuminated and
the ready LED turns off, the engine will con-
tinue to run without output power. Remove
all applied loads and determine if attached
devices
power. Check for faulty or shorted connec-
tions. To restore electrical output, turn dial
OFF to reset. Start engine. If condition was
corrected, the red LED will not illuminate
and electrical output will be restored. Loads
can be applied once the green LED illumi-
nates. If the red LED returns, contact an
IASD.
• Power LED (green): Indicates output from
000424
generator (3) (unless there is a low oil or
overload condition).
Circuit Protectors
The AC receptacles are protected by an AC
2
circuit protector. If the generator is overloaded
or an external short circuit occurs, the circuit
protector will trip. If this occurs, disconnect all
electrical loads to determine the cause of the
problem before using the generator again.
3
Reduce the load if the circuit protector is
tripped.
NOTE: Continuous tripping of the circuit pro-
002347
tector may cause damage to generator or
equipment.
Push the button of the protector to reset the
circuit protector.
