Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge is a mechanical device that measures the fuel level in the tank.
The red indicator in the window will reference the level in relation to full or
empty. To provide increased operating time, start with a full tank before
beginning operation. Check the fuel level with the generator on a level surface.
Always refuel with the engine OFF and cool.
Ground Terminal
The generator ground terminal is connected to the frame of the generator, the
metal non-current-carrying parts of the generator, and the ground terminals of
each receptacle.
Before using the ground terminal, consult a qualified electrician, electrical
inspector, or local agency having jurisdiction for local codes or ordinances that
apply to the intended use of the generator.
NEUTRAL FLOATING:
• The generator (stator winding) is isolated from the frame and from the AC
receptacle ground pin.
• Electrical devices that require a grounded receptacle pin connection will not
function if the receptacle ground pin is not functional.
