In general, capacitive and inductive loads, especially motor-driven devices have a big starting current
when starting. The following table is a reference for when connecting to the electric appliances.

Overload operation will greatly shorten generator service life. If the generator set is connected to
multiple loads or electric appliances, please first connect to one with the highest starting power,
then, the one with the second highest starting power, and connect others one by one, each with a
lower starting power than the preceding one, finally, connect the one with the lowest starting power.
5.7. DC CURRENT
DC TERMINALS
The DC terminals are used to provide power supply for lower-power DC loads and charging other
batteries. The terminals are colored as such: red to identify the positive (+) terminal and black to identify
the negative (-) terminal. Load connection method: The load must be connected to DC terminals with
the proper polarity (load’s positive to positive DC terminal (red) and load’s negative to negative DC
terminal (black)). (Fig. 13)
DC OVERCURRENT PROTECTOR
The DC overcurrent protector will automatically shut off when the DC circuit is overloaded or poor
connection occurs. If the indicator inside the DC overcurrent protector button pops out, it shows that
the DC overcurrent protector has switched off. Wait a few minutes and then push the button in to return
to “ON” position. (Fig. 08)
