OPERATION
Do not start the vehicle while the battery charging cable is connected and the generator
is running. The vehicle or the generator may be damaged.
An overloaded DC circuit, excessive current draw by the battery, or a wiring problem
will trip the DC circuit protector (PUSH button extends out. If this happens, wait a few
minutes before pushing in the circuit protector to resume operation. If the DC circuit
protector continues to go OFF, discontinue charging and see your authorized
generator dealer. The circuit protector does not prevent overcharging the battery.
Disconnecting the battery charging cable
1. Stop the engine.
2. Disconnect the black lead of the battery charging cable from the negative
(-)
battery
terminal.
3. Disconnect the red lead of the battery charging cable from the po)battery
terminal.
4. Disconnect the battery charging cable from the DC receptacle of the generator.
With the switch in the ON position, engine speed is automatically lowered when
loads are reduced, turned off, or disconnected. When appliances are turned on or
reconnected, the engine returns to the proper speed to power the electrical load. In the
OFF position, the smart throttle system does not operate.
Appliances with large start-up power demands may not allow the engine to reach normal
operating rpm when they are connected to the generator. Turn the smart throttle switch
to the OFF position and connect the appliance to the generator. If the engine still will not
reach normal operating speed, check that the appliance does not exceed the rated load
capacity of the generator.
If high electrical loads are connected simultaneously, turn the smart throttle switch to the
OFF position to reduce voltage changes.
The Smart throttle system is not effective for use with appliances or tools that require
only momentary power. If the tool or appliance will be turned ON and OFF quickly, the
smart throttle switch should be in the OFF position.
When using the DC output, turn the Smart throttle switch to the OFF position.
