OPERATION

120 Volt AC, 15 Amp, GFCI Duplex
Receptacles
Each duplex receptacle (Figure 7) is protected against
overload by a push–to–reset circuit breaker.
NOTE: If the double pole circuit breaker is tripped, the
duplex receptacles are disconnected.
Use each receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, single–phase,
60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to 1,800 watts (1.8 kW)
at 15 Amps of current. Use cord sets that are rated for
125 Volt AC loads at 15 Amps (or greater). Inspect cord
sets before each use.
Ground Fault Protection
The duplex receptacles are equipped with Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection.This device meets
applicable federal, state and local codes.The generator’s
locking receptacle is not protected by a GFCI.
The GFCI protects against electrical shock that may be
caused if your body becomes a path which electricity
travels to reach the ground.This could happen if you touch
a “Live” appliance or wire, or are touching plumbing or
other materials that connect to the ground.
When protected by a GFCI, one may still feel a shock, but
the GFCI should cut current off quickly enough so that a
person in normal health should not suffer any serious
electrical injury.
Testing the GFCI
Test your GFCI outlet prior to each use, as follows:
• Push the black “Test” button.The red “Reset” button
should pop out, which should allow no power to reach
the outlet. Use a test lamp in each outlet to test this.
• If the GFCI tests good, restore power by pressing the
“Reset” button firmly until it is fully in place and locks in that
position. If the GFCI outlet does not reset properly, do
not use the outlet. Call or take your generator to a
local service center.
• If the GFCI trips by itself at any time, reset and test the
outlet. If the reset button does not pop out when
the test button is pressed, do not use the outlet.
Call or take your generator to a local service center.
GENERATOR ADAPTER
CORD SET
The generator is equipped with a 25’ generator adapter
cord set designed for a 240 Volt, 20 Amp grounded neutral
circuit (Figure 8).The generator adapter cord set provides
a convenient supply of emergency power into your dwelling
so that your generator can be operated safely outside.
The maximum load on each outlet is 20 Amps.The
maximum total load on both blue wire outlets or black
wire outlets is 20 Amps.
IMPORTANT: This generator’s locking receptacle and the
provided adapter cord set are not protected by a Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). If used on an OSHA governed job
site, appropriate GFCI protection must be utilized.
NOTE: Follow all safety precautions when connecting any
extension cord or device to the generator.

• Contact with the hot and neutral conductor at the same time
can cause electrical shock or burn, even if the circuit is GFCI
protected.
• Before using the GFCI receptacle, ALWAYS push the test
button to insure it works.
Generator produces hazardous voltage/current.
WARNING
• DO NOT use any outlets on the circuit.
• Call or take your generator to a local service center.
The “Reset” button does not pop out or the test lamp
remains lit when the “Reset” button is popped out.
