Hour Meter
The Hour Meter tracks hours of operation for
scheduled maintenance. See Figure 2-3.
• The CHG OIL display will illuminate every
100 hours. The message will flash one hour
before and one hour after each 100 hour
interval, providing a two hour window to
perform service.
• The SVC display will illuminate every 100
hours. The message will flash one hour
before and one hour after each 200 hour
interval providing a two hour window to per-
form service.
When the hour meter is in flash alert mode,
the maintenance message will alternate with
elapsed time in hours and tenths. The hours
will flash four times, then alternate with the
maintenance message four times until the
meter automatically resets.
• 100 hours - CHG OIL — Oil Change Inter-
val (Every 100 hrs)
• 200 hours - SVC — Service Air Filter
(Every 200 hrs)
NOTE: The hour glass icon will flash when the
engine is running. This signifies the meter is
recording hours of operation.

Connection Plugs
120 VAC, 20 Amp, Duplex
Receptacle
The 120 Volt outlet is overload protected by a
20 Amp push-to-reset circuit breaker. See Fig-
ure 2-4. Each receptacle will power 120 Volt
AC, single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads
requiring up to 2400 watts (2.4 kW) or 20
Amps of current. Use only high quality, well-
insulated, 3-wire grounded cord sets rated for
125 Volts at 20 Amps (or greater).
NOTE: Limit length of extension cords to fif-
teen feet, or less, to prevent voltage drop and
overheating of wires.

120 VAC, 20 Amp, GFCI Duplex
Receptacle
The 120 Volt outlet is overload protected by a
20 Amp push-to-reset circuit breaker. See Fig-
ure 2-5. Each receptacle will power 120 Volt
AC, single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads
requiring up to 2400 watts (2.4 kW) or 20
Amps of current. Use only high quality, well-
insulated, 3-wire grounded cord sets rated for
125 Volts at 20 Amps (or greater). It also pro-
vides protection with a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter with a press to TEST and RESET
button.
NOTE: Limit length of extension cords to fif-
teen feet, or less, to prevent voltage drop and
overheating of wires.

Receptacle NEMA 5-20R
120/240 VAC, 30 Amp Receptacle
Use a NEMA L14-30 plug with this receptacle
(rotate to lock/unlock). Connect a suitable 4-
wire grounded cord set to plug and desired
load. The cord set should be rated 250 Volts
AC at 30 Amps (or greater). See Figure 2-6.
Use this receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, 60
Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 3600
watts (3.6 kW) of power at 30 Amps or 240
Volt AC, 60 Hz, single phase loads requiring
up to 7200 watts (7.2 kW) of power at 30
Amps. The outlet is protected by two 25 Amp
(5.5kW), or two 30 Amp (6.5kW) push-to-
reset, or one 30 Amp 2-pole toggle switch or,
two 30 Amp push button to reset (6.5/7.5kW)
circuit breaker.
