CONTROL PANEL FUNCTIONS
Parallel Outlets
Located just above the Ground Terminal, the generator’s Parallel Outlets enable a user to run two
P
2000
generator’s simultaneously. This operation requires special cables. When operating parallel generators, the rated
output is 3.0kVA and the rated current is
13.9
A/
23
0VAC. For cables and instructions consult your dealer for a
PARALLEL OPERATION CCCABLE KIT.
Fuel Cap
Turn counterclockwise to remove the fuel cap.
Fuel Cap Air Vent
The fuel cap is equipped with an air vent to stop fuel from flowing to the
carburetor. The Air Vent must be in the “ON” position to allow fuel to flow
so that the engine can run. Turn the Air Vent to the “OFF” position to stop
fuel flow.
Ground Terminal
The generator’s ground terminal must always be used to connect the
generator to a driven ground rod. Connect the ground terminal to the driven
ground rod with a No 12 AWG (American Wire Gage) copper wire. The
wire connects to the terminal between the lock washer and nut. Tighten the
nut securely to ensure good connection. Grounding the generator protects
you from electric shock that results from a buildup of static electricity or
undetected ground faults.
WARNING!
Never connect generators that are different models.
• Only connect this generator to another P2000 Standard Generator.
• Only use a parallel operation cable kit designed to work with this Generator.
• Only operate generator on a level surface.
• Always connect the nut and ground terminal on the frame to an appropriate ground
Generator must be properly grounded to prevent electrocution.
