OPERATION
Generator Location
WARNING
Make sure you review each warning in order to
prevent fire hazard.
Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES. Generator exhaust
contains carbon monoxide. This is a poison you cannot see or smell.
NEVER use inside a home or garage,
EVEN IF doors and windows are open.
Avoid other generator hazards. READ MANUAL BEFORE USE.
DANGER
Never use generator in wet or damp
locations. Never expose generator to
rain, snow, water spray or standing
water while in use. Protect generator
from all hazardous weather conditions.
Moisture, or ice can cause a short
circuit or other malfunction in the
electric circuit. Water contact with a
power source if not avoided, will result
in death or serious injury.
• Keep area clear of inflammables or other
hazardous materials.
• Select a site that is dry, well ventilated and
protected from the weather.
• Keep exhaust pipe clear of foreign objects.
• Keep generator away from open flame.
• Keep generator on a stable and level surface.
• Do not block generator air vents with paper or
other material.
Surge Protection
Electronic devices, including computers and many
programmable appliances use components that are
designed to operate within a narrow voltage range
and may be affected by momentary voltage
fluctuations. While there is no way to prevent voltage
fluctuations, you can take steps to protect sensitive
electronic equipment.
Install UL1449, CSA-listed, plug-in surge
suppressors on the outlets feeding your sensitive
equipment.
Only use OUTSIDE and far away
from windows, doors and vents.
Surge suppressors come in single- or multi-outlet
styles. They're designed to protect against virtually
all short-duration voltage fluctuations.
Before Starting the Generator
• Make certain the generator is on a flat, level surface
and well-ventilated location. Check for loose or
missing parts and for any damage which may have
occurred during shipment.
• Check oil level and connect the battery cable.
• Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator.
Never start or stop the generator with electrical
devices plugged in or turned on.
Voltage Selector Switch
The 120V/240V selector switch gives the user the
ability to double the amperage in the generator in
120V mode for more demanding applications. The
voltage selector switches the dual 120V AC wind-
ings of the generator to produce 120V or 240V.
120V
If a 240V appliance is connected to the 4-prong
L14-30R receptacle, the switch must be in the
"240V" position. The 120V outlets such as 5-20R,
L5-30R and TT-30R will not output power when
the Voltage Selector is in the "240V" position. The
240V outlet such as L14-30R will not output power
