OPERATING MANUAL
ENGINE SPEED
Engine speed has been factory set to provide safe operation. Tampering with the engine speed
adjustment could result in overheating of attachments and could cause a fire.
!
WARNING
The generator must be run at the correct speed in order to produce the proper
electrical voltage and frequency. Failure to do so could result in damage to
equipment powered by the generator and possible injury to the individual.
CONNECTING LOADS
You will want to be careful when connecting loads so as not to overload the generator,
especially if you are powering devices with motors that require a higher starting power load.
Instructions are provided below for connecting loads when you are using the generator as a
portable power source.
!
WARNING
Do not overload generator. Make sure that combined starting and running loads
do not exceed rated capacity of generator. Overloading the generator can cause
damage to the generator and attached electrical devices and may result in fire.
240V AC CONNECTION
Connect electrical loads one at a time according to the following instructions:
1. Allow engine to reach operating speed by allowing it to warm up for approximately 5
minutes before connecting electrical devices.
2. Check the devices to be connected is turned “OFF” before connecting them to the AC
outlets.
3. After engine is warmed up, begin by connecting the items that require the highest
wattage first.
The recommended sequence is as follows:
1. Connect items with motors such as refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, or small hand
tools, one at a time.
2. Let each motor stabilize before connecting the next device.
3. Connect any lights you are planning on powering.
4. Connect voltage sensitive equipment such as electronics via surge protectors. Plug devices
such as TV’s, computers and microwaves into a voltage surge protector, then plug the
surge protector into the generator.
12V DC CONNECTION
The generator is fitted with a socket outlet specifically for connection to a lead acid battery for
charging. The output voltage is 12V with maximum output current of 8.3A. The generator will
charge lead acid batteries of various sizes from small to large.
DO NOT attempt to charge Nicad, Nickel Metal hybrid, or lithium type batteries. ONLY use
provided charger cable. Read the following section for details.
See the next section for details on charging a battery.
