Connection Plugs
120 VAC, Duplex Receptacle
See
2-3. Use a NEMA 5-20 plug with
Figure
this receptacle. The 120 Volt outlet is overload
protected by the 20 Amp push button circuit
protector.

120 VAC, 30 Amp Receptacle
See
2-4. Use a NEMA L5-30R plug with
Figure
this receptacle. Connect a suitable 3-wire cord
set to the plug and to desired load. The cord
set should be rated for 125 Volts AC at 30
Amps (or greater).
Use this receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC,
60Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 3000
watts, 25 Amps starting power and 2300 watts
of continuous power at 19.2 Amps. The outlet
is protected by a 20 Amp push-to-reset circuit
breaker.

Off/Run/Choke Switch
See
Figure
2-5. This controls the ON/OFF
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 (
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
generator (3) (unless there is a low oil or
overload condition).
