OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Only use battery charging cable
assembly to charge vented wet lead acid
batteries.
When batteries become fully charged,
disconnect the battery charging cable assembly
from the battery. Disconnect the negative (black)
wire first, then the positive (red) wire, being
careful not to short across the terminals. Always
abide by the safety warnings provided with the
battery.
NOTE: The specific gravity for the fully charged
battery shall be within 1.26 to 1.28. It is
advisable to check the specific gravity every
hour. It is highly recommended that you refer to
your battery manufacturer’s instructions for
specific charge times.
Unplug battery charging cable assembly and
store for later use.
WARNING: Never smoke or
make/break the connections at the
battery while charging. Sparks can
ignite the battery gas.
Battery electrolyte is poisonous and dangerous
and can cause severe burns. Avoid contact with
skin, eyes and clothing.
OVERLOAD PROTECTION (FIG.16)
Under normal working conditions the (Green) AC
power output indicator will be illuminated.
If the generator is overloaded or if there is a
malfunction or a short circuit in a connected
appliance, the (Green) AC power output
indicator will extinguish and the (Red) overload
indicator light illuminates and the power to the
connected appliance will be disconnected.
If the (Red) overload indicator light illuminates
stop the generator and investigate the cause.
Before connecting an appliance to the
generator, check that it is in good order, and
that its electrical rating does not exceed that of
the generator. Then connect the power cord of
the appliance, and start the engine.
When an electric motor is started, both the
(Red) overload indicator and the (Green) AC
power output indicator will illuminate
simultaneously. This is normal, the (Red)
overload indicator extinguishes after about four
(4) seconds. If the (Red) overload indicator
remains illuminated, consult your generator
dealer.
Caution: Substantial overloading that
continuously illuminates the (Red) overload
indicator may damage the generator. If the (Red)
overload indicator light and the (Green) AC
power output indicator illuminate at the same
time when engine starts and the (Red) overload
indicator remains illuminated after the (Green)
AC power output indicator extinguishes, please
contact your supplier.
Note: For equipment with an inductive load
(more power will be required at initial start).
Under these conditions it is normal for both the
(Red) overload indicator and the (Green) AC
power output indicator will illuminate
simultaneously for a short period about four (4)
seconds. After the appliance starts, the (Red)
over-load indicator extinguishes and the (Green)
AC power output indicator will remain
illuminated.
