2.12 DC Applications
Use the DC receptacle to charge external batteries, to power DC devices, or to back-charge the internal generator
battery with a battery charger. The DC receptacle provides a polarized, system floating 12V, 8.3A DC supply. The
DC receptacle can be used to back-charge the generator battery whether the generator is running or not. The
generator must be running to charge an external battery through the DC receptacle.
•
The DC receptacle may be used for charging 12 volt lead acid batteries only. Other types of batteries may
burst causing personal injury or damage.
•
DC charger should NOT be used to charge Power Supply back up batteries.
• To prevent the possibility of creating a spark near the battery, connect the charging cable first to the battery
being charged, and then to the generator. When charging is complete, disconnect the cable first at the
generator.
• Before connecting charging cables to a battery that is installed in a vehicle, disconnect the vehicle’s ground
battery cable. Reconnect the vehicle’s ground battery cable after the charging cables are removed. This
procedure will prevent the possibility of a short circuit and sparks if you make accidental contact between a
battery terminal and the vehicle’s frame or body.
•
Connect the positive charging cord to the positive battery terminal. Do not reverse the charging cables, or
serious damage to the generator and/or battery may occur. Physical injury may also occur.
WARNING! ELECTRICAL HAZARD
•
Starting an automobile engine with the generator may damage the generator.
•
Connect the positive charging cord to the positive battery terminal. Do not reverse the charging cables, or serious
damage to the generator and/or battery may occur.
•
DC operation is only intended for the purpose of charging batteries. It should not be used to power DC equipment.
CAUTION!
1. For DC operation, with the engine running, turn the economy switch to the OFF position.
2.
Connect the charging cables to the battery terminals first.
3. Connect the charging cables to the DC receptacle of the generator last.
