GFCI TEST RECORDS:
As with any other safety devices, the GFCIs supplied with these
generators must be checked every month to insure that they are
functioning properly. To test the GFCIs, follow the instructions and
then enter the date of the test below.
1. With the generator running and the idle control switch
in the “START” position, push the “TEST” button. The
“RESET” button should pop out. This should result in the power
being off at both outlets of the duplex receptacle. Verify this
by plugging a test lamp into each outlet.
WARNING: IF THE RESET BUTTON DOES NOT POP OUT,
DO NOT USE THE RECEPTACLE(S). SEE AUTHORIZED
CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE FOR SERVICE
IMMEDIATELY.
2. If the GFCI test correctly, restore power by FIRMLY pushing the
“RESET” button back in until you hear or feel a distinctive “click”. IF
THE GFCI FAILS TO RESET PROPERLY, DO NOT USE EITHER
OUTLET OF THE DUPLEX RECEPTACLE. Have the unit serviced
by an authorized Customer Service Representative immediately.
3. High vibration or severe mechanical shock loads may cause the
GFCIs to trip. IF EITHER GFCI TRIPS BY ITSELF AT ANY TIME,
reset it and perform test procedures 1 and 2.
4. Repeat steps 1-3 for the second GFCI.
WARNING: ALTHOUGH THE ABOVE TEST PROCEDURES
WILL INDICATE PROPER GFCI OPERATION ON AN UN-
GROUNDED OR IMPROPERLY GROUNDED GENERATOR,
THE GENERATOR MUST STILL BE GROUNDED PER THE
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS LISTED ON PAGE 14 FOR
THE GFCI TO FUNCTION PROPERLY AND PROTECT
THE USER FROM ELECTRICAL FAULTS.
Year Jan. Feb. March April May June July Aug. Sept. Oct. Nov. Dec.
NOTE: Situations exist where a GFCI will not afford any protection against the hazards of electrical shock.
EXAMPLE: if a person touches two or more conductors from a damaged cord set and is not in direct contact
with the ground, he or she may receive a shock. Since there is no path to ground for a ground fault current to
flow through, the GFCI will not operate and serious injury may result.
The GFCI are merely an added safety feature. There are no substitutes for good safety precautions, correct
electrical practices and proper maintenance of cords, equipment and connections.
