Firman WH03042 - Engine Shutdown and Protection; Stopping the Engine and Low Oil Shutdown

DC CIRCUIT PROTECTOR
A DC circuit protector has been provided to
protect the circuit from overloads. If an overload
occurs, the circuit protector will trip. The circuit
protector may be reset by pushing the button of
the protector.
Charging a large capacity battery or a totally
discharged battery may cause the DC breaker to
turn off. In these cases, a separate battery charger
unit connected to an AC power source is
recommended instead of the DC receptacle on
the generator.
Stopping the Engine

Never start or stop the generator with
electrical devices plugged in or turned on.
Let the generator run at no-load for two minutes to stabilize
internal temperatures of the engine and generator.
