Overload indicator
note:

  The OVERLOAD light may turn on for a few seconds as a large device starts up.   

This is normal for loads approaching the capacity of this Generator.

1.  The total combined load through the 

outlets on the Generator must not exceed 

the running power of the unit.

2.  If the OVERLOAD light turns on and the Generator 

stops producing power, it has been overloaded.

3.  Turn off and disconnect all electrical devices and 

stop the Engine.  Compare device requirements 

to Generator rating and reduce the total wattage 

of connected devices if necessary.  Move anything 

that may be limiting Generator ventilation away.

4.  Check if any circuit breakers have tripped 

and make sure that ALL circuit breakers are 

reset before starting the Generator again.

5.  Restart the Engine and reconnect devices while 

being careful to not overload Generator.

Low Oil indicator

1.  If the Engine oil level is too low, the LOW OIL light 

turns on and the Engine will automatically shut off.  

2.  The Engine cannot be restarted until the proper 

amount of oil has been added.  Add the appropriate 

type of oil until the oil level is at the proper level.  

SAE 10W-30 oil is recommended for general use.

nOTiCE:  Do not run the engine with too little oil.  

Engine will shut off if engine oil level is too low.

Economy (ESC) Switch

1.  Turn the Economy (ESC) Switch ON to limit noise 

and fuel consumption for lighter generator loads.

2.  Turn the Economy (ESC) Switch OFF 

to operate engine at full speed:
a.  when starting
b.  when a heavy load is applied
c.  when using the 12 VDC output

Digital Display Screen

The Display Screen can be used to monitor 

the operating status of the Generator.  

Use the Display Control Button to scroll 

through the following indicators:
•  V – Voltage
•  A – Amperage
•  VA – Volt Amps / Watts
•  Hour – accumulative run time
