General Inspection Prior to Operation
Ground Power Tools
When using power tools or electrical equipment requireing AC
power from the generators, make sure connecting (power tool)
cable (Figure 6) has a ground as shown in Figure.
GA-6RE/GA-6REA — PRE-
INSPECTION
Extension Cable
When electric power is to be provided to various tools or loads at
some distance from the generators, extension cords are normally
used. Cables should be sized to allow for distance in length and
amperage so that the voltage drop between the generators and
point of use (load) is held to a minimum. Use the cable selection
chart (Table 4) as a guide for selecting proper cable size.
Main Circuit Breaker
To protect the generators from an overload always place the
main circuit breaker in the "
OFF
" position prior to starting the
engine.
