SOME NOTES ABOUT POWER CORDS
Long or thin extension cords can drain the power provided to your electrical devices. Refer to the following
chart in determining the necessary gauge extension cord for each of your devices. Round up to the higher
amperage in the chart to maximize safety.
*NR = Not Recommended Fig. 8 - Power Cord Requirement Guide
IN CASE OF OVERLOAD
If your becomes overloaded from too much drawn wattage, the circuit breaker will shut off power to pro-
tect the generator. If an overload occurs, disconnect all electrical devices from the generator and wait five
minutes, then press the circuit breaker to reset. Check the total wattage of the devices and reduce the load
if it exceeds the capacity of the generator.
NOTE:
The circuit reset button is thermally activated. The breaker has to cool down before it can be reset.
If the reset button does not reset, wait several minutes and try again. If problem persists, call our customer
service 1-800-232-1195 for further instructions

STOPPING THE GENERATOR
WARNING:
Allow the generator to cool down before touching areas that become hot during use.
To shut off the generator:
1. Turn off all electrical devices prior to unplugging them from the generator. Unplugging running devices
can cause damage to the generator.
2. Push the engine switch to the OFF position.
3. Turn the fuel valve to the OFF (horizontal) position.
CAUTION:
Unplugging running devices can cause damage to the generator. Never stop the engine
with electrical devices connected and running.
CAUTION:
Allowing gasoline to sit in the fuel tank for long periods of time can make it difficult to start
the generator in the future. Never store the generator for extended periods of time (over 2 months) with
fuel in the fuel tank. Refer to “STORING THE GENERATOR” on page 22.
