Idle Control Switch
This feature improves fuel economy. When
switch is ON, the engine operates at normal
(high) rpm when an electrical load is present.
The engine operates at a reduced rpm when
load is removed. When the switch is OFF, the
engine operates at normal (high) rpm continu-
ously.
Always have this switch OFF when starting/
stopping the engine and when using the gen-
erator as a backup power supply to a house/
building connected via Power Inlet Box to a
transfer switch.
