12VDC Power Operation
The DC receptacle may be used for charging 12 volt batteries only. The no load voltage is 15V-30V.
Turn the Smart Throttle switch to the OFF position when using the DC receptacle.
1. Connect the charging cable to the DC receptacle of the generator and then to the battery terminals.
To prevent the possibility of creating a spark near the battery, connect the
charging cable first to the generator then to the battery. Disconnect the cable
first at the battery.
Connect the positive battery terminal to the positive charging cord. Do not reverse the charging
cables, or serious damage to the generator and/or battery may occur.
The battery gives off explosive gases; keep spark, flames and cigarettes
away. Provide adequate ventilation when charging.
The battery may contain sulfuric acid (electrolyte). Contact with skin or eyes
may cause severe burns. Wear protective clothing and a face shield.
If electrolyte gets on your skin, flush with water.
If electrolyte gets in your eyes, flush with water for at least 15
minutes and call a physician.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
2. Start the engine
The DC receptacle may be used while the AC power is in use.
An overloaded DC circuit will trip the DC circuit fuse located behind the generator panel. Replace the
fuse with one of the same size and rating (6.3A slow-blow 5x20mm). Use of a higher rated fuse may
lead to generator damage.
PARALLEL OPERATION
Parallel operation features:
Two Wanco 3000-W parallel-ready generators can be connected together to increase the total power
available to a load. The system seamlessly matches frequency and evenly distributes the load to
each generator so one is not overloaded.
A 3000W Wanco inverter should only be paralleled with another 3000W Wanco inverter. Wanco offers
two parallel kits (sold separately). WPK30 has a single 30A locking receptacle ideal for powering
large loads such as RV air conditioners. WPK50 adds a 20A duplex receptacle to power a second
load. Contact your dealer for the best kit for your particular application.
