2.4.3 NEUTRAL TO FRAME GROUNDING
If service work is performed on the alternator , DO NOT discard
the white jumper wires from the terminal block to the alternator
ground, located on the rear bearing carrier. Always make sure
the wires are properly connected before using the generator after
alternator service work is done (Figure 7).
 Failure to reconnect these wires may create a
potential shock hazard when the generator is
running!
Figure 7 – Neutral to Frame Ground
DO NOT DISCARD
THESE WIRES!

2.4.4 CONNECTING ELECTRICAL LOADS
DO NOT connect 240 Volt loads to 120 Volt receptacles.
DO NOT connect 3 phase loads to the generator.
DO NOT connect 50 Hz loads to the generator.
• Let engine stabilize and warm up for a few minutes after
starting.
• Plug in and turn on the desired 120 or 240 Volt AC, single
phase, 60 Hz electrical loads.
• Add up the rated watts (or amps) of all loads to be connected
at one time. This total should no be greater than (a) the rated
wattage/amperage capacity of the generator or (b) circuit
breaker rating of the receptacle supplying the power. See “Don’t
Overload the Generator
2.5 DON’T OVERLOAD THE GENERATOR
Overloading a generator in excess of its rated wattage capacity
can result in damage to the generator and to connected electrical
devices. Observe the following to prevent overloading the unit:
• Add up the total wattage of all electrical devices to be connected
at one time. This total should NOT be greater than the
generator's wattage capacity.
• The rated wattage of lights can be taken from light bulbs. The
rated wattage of tools, appliances and motors can usually be
found on a data label or decal affixed to the device.
• If the appliance, tool or motor does not give wattage, multiply
volts times ampere rating to determine watts (volts x amps =
watts).
• Some electric motors, such as induction types, require about
three times more watts of power for starting than for running.
This surge of power lasts only a few seconds when starting
such motors. Make sure to allow for high starting wattage when
selecting electrical devices to connect to the generator:
1. Figure the watts needed to start the largest motor.
2. Add to that figure the running watts of all other connected
loads.
The Wattage Reference Guide is provided to assist in determining
how many items the generator can operate at one time.
IMPORTANT: Do not overload the generator. Also, do not overload
individual panel receptacles. These outlets are protected against
overload with push-to-reset-type circuit breakers. Read “Don’t
Overload the Generator” carefully.
NOTE:
All figures are approximate. See data label on appliance for
wattage requirements.
