5.
aC-voltmeter –
This voltmeter indicates (with a
mark) the rated 60 Hz (single-phase) output voltage.
In addition the voltmeter can also be used as a
diagnostic tool. If the voltmeter indicator (needle) is
below the rated voltage, engine problems may exist
(low/high RPM's). To prevent damage to the generator
or power tools turn the generator
OFF
and consult your
authorized Multiquip service dealer.

and reduced fuel consumption.
The automatic idle control automatically engages under
a no-load condition. With the automatic idle control
switched “
ON
”, the engine revolutions will automatically
drop to about 2600 rpm (low-speed operation) within
3 seconds after the load stops. When the operation is
resumed, the engine speed is automatically increased
to about 3600 rpm (high-speed operation) as soon as
the load is connected.
7.
Operation switch –
Place switch in the "

Press this pushbutton switch to start
the generator.
9.
main Breaker –
2-pole 35 amp circuit breaker protects
the generator from short circuiting or overloading.
When starting the generator always have this circuit
breaker placed in the "
OFF
" position.
10.
