connections are in good condition before connection to the
generator.

Make sure the total load is within the generator rated output.

Make sure the receptacle load current is within the receptacle
rated current.

The rated and maximum output power of the generator is based
on resistive load, and is not applicable to inductive load and
capacitive load. Since the power factor of inductive load and
capacitive load are less than 1, the rated power of inductive
load and capacitive load should be small enough compared
with the rated power of the generator, and the ratio of the two
should not exceed the power factor of the load.
Otherwise, the generator may be overloaded or damaged.
For example, if the power factor of the inductive load is 0.6, the
rated power of this load may not exceed: 0.6 * 1.8 = 1.08kW.
Otherwise, the generator may have overload protection or
damage.

If the generator is overloaded (in excess of rated power), or if
there is a short circuit in a connected appliance, the
OVERLOAD LED (red) 5 will light ON, and the current to
the connected appliance(s) will shut off, and the READY
LED (green) 4 will light OFF.

The Reset Button 3 can be used to recover the output of
the generator under the condition of overload protection,
making it unnecessary to restart the engine overall.
However, if there is a short circuit in a connected appliance
or wire, first check and correct the problem.

When an electric motor is started, the OVERLOAD LED (red) 5
may light up. This is normal if the OVERLOAD LED (red) 5
lights up after a few seconds.
