■ FUEL PRIMER _
Before starting a cold engine (if it has not been started in more
than two weeks), you must press this switch for approximately
5 seconds to bring fuel from the tank to the carburetor. This
rocker type switch springs back into its original position when
you release it.
■ START/STOP SWITCH _
To crank and start the engine, hold this switch at its START
position. Release the switch when the engine starts. To stop
an operating engine, press and hold the switch in its STOP
position until the engine shuts off. The switch center position
is the RUN position.
■ FUSE _
Protects the engine DC control circuit against electrical over¬
load. If the fuse element has melted open due to overloading,
the engine cannot be cranked. If you must replace it, use only
an identical replacement fuse.
■ MAIN BREAKER _
Protects generators AC output circuit against overload and pro¬
vides a method of turning OFF the generators 120/240 volts
AC output to vehicle circuits. The NP-50G has one 20 amp
breaker and one 30 amp breaker.
NOTE: If the Series NP-50G has been reconnected for dual
voltage AC output (120/240 volts), you can install line break¬
ers having an amperage rating that is different than stated
above. The replacement line breakers consist of two sepa¬
rate breakers with a connecting piece between the breaker
handles (so that both breakers will operate at the same time).
If the unit is reconnected for dual voltage, it is no longer RVIA
listed.
