Ground
System
To
prevent electrical shock from foully appliances, the generator should be grounded.
Connect a length
of
heavy wire between the ground terminal and the ground
source
The generators have a system ground that connects generator frame components to
the ground terminals,
in
the AC output receptacles. The system ground
is
not connected
to the AC neutral wire. If the generates is tested by a receptacle tester. it will not show
the same ground circuit condition as tor a home receptacle.

AC
Applications
Before connecting an appliance
or
power to the generator:
• Make sure that it
is
in
good working order. Faulty appliances
or
power cords can
create a potential for electrical shock.
• If an appliance begins to operate abnormally, becomes sluggish or stops suddenly.
turn it off immediately. Disconnect the appliance, and determine whether the problem
is
the appliance,
or
if the rated load capacity
of
the generator has been exceeded.
• Make sure that the electrical, rating
of
the tool
or
appliance does not exceed that
of
the generator. Never exceed the maximum power rating
of
the generator. Power
levels between rated and maximum may be used for no more than 30 minutes.
