Operation   of   Generator

   

HOW   TO   USE   YOUR   GENERATOR   

(continued)   

   
   

LOW   OIL   ALARM   SYSTEM:

   

This   model   is   equipped   with   a   Low   Oil   Alert   System   designed   to   avoid   engine   damage   

from   insufficient   oil   in   the   crankcase.      The   Low   Oil   Alarm   System   will   stop   the   engine   

automatically   before   the   oil   level   in   the   crankcase   drops   below   safe   operating   levels.         

   
   
VOLTAGE   FREQUENCY   TIME   (VFT)   METER:

   

The   LF3750,   LF3750-­‐CA,   LF4000EPL,   and   LF4000EPL-­‐CA   models   include   a   Voltage   

Frequency   Time   (VFT)   Meter.      The   VFT   Meter   has   four   (4)   modes:   

 

Start   Up   Mode   1   

   -­‐   The   run   time   for   the   cycle   displayed   in   minutes.      This   resets   

each   time   the   unit   is   shut   off.   

 

Mode   2   

–   The   run   time   for   the   lifetime   of   the   unit   displayed   in   hours.      This   does   

NOT   reset.   

 

Mode   3   

–   Frequency   reading   of   the   sine   wave   of   the   current   output   in   Hertz.      

This   should   be   between   56Hz   –   64Hz   (Hz   =   Hertz).   

 

Mode   4   

–   Voltage   reading   of   the   current   output   in   Volts.      This   should   be   

between   115V   –   122V   (V=Volts).   

   

To   change   the   mode   of   the   VFT   Meter,   simply   depress   the   black   button   on   the   face   of   

the   VFT   Meter.
