OPERATION
CONNECTIONS TO A BUILDING ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
A qualified electrician must perform connections for standby power to a building's electrical system. The
connection must isolate the generator power from the utility power, and must comply with all applicable laws and
electrical codes. A transfer switch, which isolates generator power from utility power, is required.
WARNING! Improper connections to a building's electrical system can allow electrical current from the
generator to back feed into the utility lines. Such back feed may electrocute utility company workers or others
who contact the lines during a power outage, and the generator may explode, burn, or cause fires when utility
power is restored. Consult the utility company or a qualified electrician.
GROUND SYSTEM
The portable generator has a system ground that connects the generator frame components to the ground
terminals in the AC output receptacles. The system ground is not connected to the AC neutral wire.
AC APPLICATIONS
Before connecting an appliance or power cord to the generator:
1. Make sure that it is in good working order. Faulty appliances or power cords can create the potential for
electrical shock.
2. If an appliance operates abnormally, becomes sluggish, or stops suddenly, immediately turn off the
appliance. Disconnect the appliance and determine whether the problem is with the appliance, or if the
rated load capacity of the generator has been exceeded.
3. Make sure that the electrical rating of the tool or appliance does not exceed the rating of the generator.
Never exceed the maximum power rating of the generator. Do not operate a tool or an appliance at the
maximum power rating for more than 30 minutes at a time.
WARNING! Substantial overloading will open the circuit breaker. Exceeding the maximum-power time limit or
slightly overloading the generator may not switch OFF the circuit breaker, but it may shorten the service life of
your generator.
AC OPERATION
1. Start the engine.
2. Switch ON the AC circuit breaker.
3. Plug in the appliance.
Most motorized appliances require more than their rated power for startup. Do not exceed the current limit
specified for any one receptacle. If an overloaded circuit causes the AC circuit breaker or AC circuit protector to
switch OFF, reduce the electrical load on the circuit, wait a few minutes, and then reset the AC circuit breaker or the
AC circuit protector.
HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION
At high altitude, the standard carburetor air / fuel mixture will be too rich. Performance will decrease, and
fuel consumption will increase. A very rich mixture will also foul the spark plug and cause hard starting. High
altitude operation may also increase emissions; however, high altitude performance can be improved by specific
carburetor modifications. If you always operate your generator at altitudes above 5,000 feet (1,500 metres), have
a qualified service technician perform these carburetor modifications. The engine will continue to meet emission
standards once the modifications have been performed; however, engine horsepower will decrease 3.5% for
every 1,000 feet (300 metres) of altitude. Altitude will have an even greater effect on horsepower if the
carburetor modifications are not performed.
