Years
The battery has a 10 year lifetime, in the event you need to
change the battery, follow these instructions:
The battery is located in the control box near potentially live
AC terminals. To prevent electrocution while changing the
battery disable the unit by disconnecting the main battery,
spark plug wire and then open the receptacle panel. Locate
the backside of the YourGen meter. Gently pry the back
plate off using the slot located on top.
Once open, the battery will be located at the top. Using a
needle nose plier, carefully pull out the battery.
Replace the battery having the POSITIVE (+) side down.
Ensure the battery is secured between the battery
connections.
Replace the back plate of the meter and close the receptacle
panel using the screws to secure it. Reconnect the unit’s
main battery.

Install Battery Between These Two Points
It is good practice to monitor the YourGen Meter when
applying load.
This will ensure the generator is balanced.
Balanced Unbalanced
120 Volt and 120/240 Volt receptacles are provided for
connection to various loads.
The diagram below represents this 10,800 watt (rated
output) generator. A & B represent the 120 volt output legs
of this generator. Up to 5400 watts at 120 volts (45 Amps)
can be drawn from the receptacles attached to either A
or B output legs. This generator is capable of producing
45 Amps of 240 volt current at C. Check the appliance
or tool nameplates for the current and voltage to insure
compatibility. Remember that power taken from C reduces
the power available at equally both A and B and vice versa.
Change Oil Warning -
After the first 50 hours, the engine oil should be changed.
The YourGen meter will light up the oil icon ( ) and the
word ‘change’ will flash. Once the oil has been changed,
press and hold the cycle button for approximately 5
seconds until the warning has been removed from the
display to reset the warning. The meter will then remind
you of oil changes on the appropriate schedule for your
generator. It is important to remember that the engine
manufacturer recommends changing the oil on a calendar
schedule even if the total number of operational hours have
not been reached. Certain operating environments may
also require more frequent oil changes.
Alarms -
The display will start blinking and toggle to the first
parameter that is out of specification. The panel will remain
flashing until the fault condition returns to within the
acceptable range, see following table.

Battery -
When the unit is off, the YourGen meter will display the
hours continuously using a coin cell back-up battery inside
the meter. Once the unit is running, the meter will get
power from the main unit battery.
