Prior to powering tools and equipment, make sure the generator’s
rated voltage, and amperage capacity (240V AC 1600 watts
continuous, 2000 watts peak) is adequate to supply all electrical
loads that the unit will power. If powering exceeds the generator’s
capacity, it may be necessary to group one or more of the tools
and/or equipment for connection to a separate generator.
3. Once the generator is running, simply connect the power cords of the
240 volt AC powered tools and equipment into the 240 volt AC outlet
and/or the power cord of a 12V DC item to the DC terminals..
4.
DO NOT connect 3-phase loads to the generator.
5.
DO NOT overload the generator.
Note:
The DC terminals may be used for charging 12 volt
automotive type batteries only.
4.4 Battery Charging
Start the engine first and allow it to reach idle before connecting the generator to the
battery. Battery Charging is performed using the 12V DC outlet only.
1. Be sure the Smart Throttle switch is turned
“OFF”
while
charging batteries.
2. Be sure to connect the red battery charger lead to the positive
(+) battery terminal, and connect the black lead to the negative
(-) battery terminal. DO NOT reverse these positions.
3. Connect the battery charger leads to the battery terminals
securely so that they are not disconnected due do engine
vibration or other disturbances.
4. Charge the battery by following the instructions in the
owner’s manual for the battery.
5. The DC Circuit Breaker will turn
“OFF”
automatically if the
current exceeds rated output.
6. To restart charging the battery, turn the DC protector on by
pressing its button to
“ON”
7.
Refer to the owner’s manual for the battery to determine
charging times.
Note:
Never start or stop the generator with electrical
devices plugged in or turned on.
