WARNING
Before starting the generator, check fuels and oil levels. The generator may have to run for two
or three minutes before it allows drawing electricity from it. Read the generator instruction
manual. If you do not have a generator instruction manual, call inTech Trailers Parts, Service
and Warranty at 574-773-9536, for a free copy.
Never exceed the capacity of the generator. Before turning off the generator, remove the
electrical load and let the engine run for two or three minutes to cool the generator.

ACCESSORY BATTERY
Your trailer may be outfitted with an accessory battery that operates lighting, electrical landing
gear, slide-outs or other accessories. An accessory battery may be kept charged either by the
tow vehicle or by the generator or shore power.
A disconnect switch may be provided to disconnect the accessory battery when you do not plan
to be using the trailer for an extended period, such as seasonal storage. If there is no disconnect
switch, then remove the cables from the battery terminals.
In order for the tow vehicle to properly supply a charge to the trailers accessory battery the
disconnect switch must be kept in the “on” position. When the disconnect switch is in the “off”
position the trailers accessory battery is completely isolated from the electrical system.
The accessory battery must be kept in a charged condition during storage. The battery could
freeze and break if it becomes discharged.
6.3
SHORE POWER
Shore power is the delivery of electrical power from another source to a power inlet on your
trailer. To connect your trailer to this source, you must have a “shore power” cord, specifically
designed for this use.
DO NOT USE AN ORDINARY EXTENSION
CORD.
The trailer end of this
cord is connected to an electrical box on the trailer,
sometimes referred to as a “motor base.”
This box contains circuit breakers and/or fuses and may include a power converter to change
the shore power (usually 110 volts alternating current) into 12 volts direct current.
Operating gasoline or diesel generators can lead to death or serious injury by:
•
Carbon Monoxide
•
Fire and Explosion
•
Electrocution
Always have a working carbon monoxide detector in the living quarter
accommodation spaces before operating a generator.
Do NOT refuel a running generator or refuel near ignition sources.
