OPERATION
NOTE: Verify that all devices are turned off before
connecting them to the generator.
NOTE: Make sure that the wattage requirements for
all connected devices are in line with your generator's
capabilities.
l Connect and start the largest device or appliance.
l Allow the generator output to stabilize. Once stable,
the engine should run smoothly, and the device should
function properly.
l Connect and start the next largest device or appliance.
l Allow the generator output to stabilize.
l Repeat this process for each additional load.
STOPPING THE GENERATOR
See Figures 10 - 11.
l .Remove any connected loads from the control panel
receptacles.
l .Allow the generator to run at "no load" to reduce and
stabilize engine and alternator temperatures.
l .Turn the engine/fuel control switch to the OFF
l .Turn the vent knob on the fuel cap to the OFF position.
To stop the unit quickly in an emergency:
l .Turn the engine/fuel control switch to the OFF
PARALLEL OPERATION
See Figure 12.
Parallel operation gives you the ability to link another
compatible Westinghouse inverter generator for combined
running and peak power output.
DANGER
Never connect or disconnect the parallel cable leads
when a generator is running. Failure to follow this rule
may lead to serious personal injury or death.
WARNING
is very important when the generators are used with
a transfer switch to supply power to a building. To
avoid serious personal injury or damage to electrical
devices, including the generators, do not try to power
an electrical system in a building without using an ap-
proved transfer switch.
NOTICE
Connecting to a generator that is
not compatible can cause a low voltage output that
may damage tools and appliances powered by the
generator.
Use only the Westinghouse 120V parallel cable kit that
came with your generator. Third party cables may not have
the ability to carry the increased voltage. If damage or loss
occurs to your cables, call Westinghouse customer service
for a replacement.
Fire and electrocution hazard.

NOTE: Make sure both units have been shut down and
there are no devices connected to the outlet receptacles.

to allow the heat from the exhaust to safely escape.
position
The exhaust heat from one unit may discolor or melt
the plastic case of the other unit if positioned too close-
ly together.
To install the parallel cable:
l Insert the cable end into one of the parallel ports on the
first unit. Insert the other end of the same cable into the
corresponding port on the second unit.
l Repeat steps with the other cable.
NOTE: It is important to connect both ends of the cable to
the same ports on both generators. Make sure the same
cable ends are connected to the same port on each gener-
ator before starting the generators.
Start one generator at a time. Wait for the first unit to run
at a stable idle before starting the second unit. Connect
one device at a time and allow the unit to stabilize before
connecting the next device.
To remove the parallel cable:
l Remove all devices from the generator's receptacles.
l Shut down both of the connected generators.
l Remove the parallel cable ends from the generator ports.
LOW OIL INDICATOR
See Figure 12.
The LOW OIL LED on the control panel will illuminate when
the unit is low or out of oil. The generator will not start when
the indicator is lit. To resume normal operation, add engine
oil as described earlier in this section. Do not attempt to
crank or start engine before it has been properly ser-
viced with recommended oil.
