7-2. GFCI Receptacle Information, Resetting, And Testing

!

Use GFCI protection when operat-

ing auxiliary equipment. If unit does

not have GFCI receptacles, use

GFCI-protected extension cord. Do

not use GFCI receptacle to power

life support equipment.

!

Unplug power cord before attempt-

ing to service accessories or tools.

Red and Green indicator lights may be

GFCI Receptacles

GFCI receptacles protect the user from

electric shock if a ground fault occurs in

equipment connected to the receptacle. A

ground fault occurs when electrical current

takes the shortest path to ground (which

could be through a person) rather than fol-

low its intended safe path.

If a ground fault is detected, the GFCI Reset

button pops out, and the circuit opens to

disconnect power to the faulty equipment.

A GFCI receptacle does not protect against

circuit overloads, short circuits, or shocks

not related to ground faults. Reset and test

GFCI receptacle according to the following

procedures.

A solid green LED indicates power to the

GFCI. A solid red LED indicates that the

GFCI has been tripped.

Resetting/Testing GFCI Receptacle

!

Test GFCI monthly.

!

If Red LED blinks, stop using GFCI

receptacle and have it replaced by a

Factory Authorized Service Agent.

!

Extension cords with bad insulation

or of extended length can allow

enough leakage current to trip the

GFCI circuit. Reset and test as

follows.

Resetting GFCI Receptacles

If a GFCI fault occurs, stop engine and dis-

connect equipment from GFCI receptacle.

Check for damaged or wet tools, cords,

plugs, etc. connected to the receptacle.

Start engine, place ignition switch in RUN

position, and press GFCI Reset button. Re-

connect equipment to GFCI receptacle. If

GFCI Reset button pops out again, check

the equipment and repair or replace if faulty.

Testing GFCI Receptacles

Start engine and press the GFCI Test but-

ton. The GFCI Reset button should pop out.

Press the GFCI Reset button.

Have GFCI replaced by a Factory Autho-

rized Service Agent if any of the follow-

ing occur:

GFCI does not trip when tested

Red LED blinks

GFCI does not reset.
