Overload Indicator Light (Red)
The overload indicator light
comes on when an overload of
a connected electrical device
is detected, the inverter
control unit overheats, or the
AC output voltage rises. Then,
the AC protector will trip,
stopping power generation in
order to protect the generator and any connected electric
devices. The AC pilot light (Green) will go off and the overload
indicator light (Red) will stay on, but the engine will not stop
running.
When the overload indicator light comes on and power
generation stops, proceed as follows:
1. Turn off any connected electric devices and stop the
engine.
2. Reduce the total wattage of connected electric devices
within the rated output.
3. Check for blockages in the cooling air Inlet and around the
control unit. If any blockages are found remove.
4. After checking, restart the engine.
NOTE
: The overload indicator light may come on for a few
seconds at first when using electric devices that require
a large starting current, such as an air conditioner or a
water pump. However, this is not a malfunction.
AC Pilot Light (Green)
The AC pilot light comes on
when the engine starts and
produces power.
Ground (Earth) Terminal
The ground terminal on this
generator is connected to NON-
current carrying parts of the
generator frame and to each AC
outlet. Before attaching a
ground (earth) lead, consult with
a qualified electrician on the
intended use of this generator.
AC Circuit Breaker
The AC Circuit Breaker will trip
to protect the electric device
when current is too heavy.
Folding Handle
This generator is fitted
with a folding handle
set to enable the user
to manoeuvre the
generator with ease. To
engage, lift handle up
and lock handle in
place. To fold down, press down on both locking levers at the
same time and the handle will fold down. Do not use
generator with handle set in the fixed position. Do not use the
handle set to raise the generator off the ground.
Maintenance Door
Make sure that the maintenance door is closed while the
engine is running. Open and close maintenance doors for unit
maintenance.
In the case of no electrical start,
open the right maintenance
door and start the engine by
recoil starter.
Right door:
Inspection/
replacement of engine oil;
manual start.
Left door:
Inspection/
replacement of spark plugs;
inspection/cleaning of air filter;
drain of carburetor.
Open maintenance
door: Rotate lock 90°
counterclockwise.
Close maintenance door:
