AC Rated Power
AC rated power is maximum amount of power
generator can support.
AC Surge Power
AC surge power is additional power generator
momentarily produces to aid in starting of
electrical devices requiring power above
generator's rated power requirements.
Overload (Capacity of Generator)
Never exceed rated load of generator (in Amps
and/or Watts) when it is running continuously.
See specifi cations table for rated outputs.
Before connecting and operating generator,
calculate electrical power required by electric
appliances (in Watts). This electrical power
rating is usually found on manufacturer's
plate on bulbs, electrical appliances, motors,
etc. Sum total of power required by these
appliances should not exceed nominal power
rating of generator.
Circuit protectors (C) will stop power to
protected receptacles (B & D) when an
overload of a connected electrical device is
detected or AC output voltage rises to protect
generator and any connected electric devices.
When overload occurs and power generation
stops, proceed as follows:
1. Turn off any connected electric devices and
stop generator.
2. Reduce total wattage of connected electric
devices within application range.
3. Check for blockages in cooling air inlet and
outlet areas and around control unit. If any
blockages are found, remove them.
4. After checking, restart generator.
Air Cooling
WARNING
Hot Parts can cause severe
burns.
Do not touch generator while
operating or just after stopping.
Never operate generator with heat shields or
guards removed. Do not modify generator.
Place generator in a place where pedestrians
or children are not likely to touch generator.
Be sure to carry generator only by its
carrying handles.
Proper cooling is essential. To prevent over
heating, ensure air cooling inlet and outlet
areas are clean and unobstructed. Avoid
spraying water at wiring harness or any
electrical components. Refer to Maintenance
Schedule.
Ground Terminal
Ground terminal (E) connects earth line for
prevention of electric shock. When electric
device is grounded, be sure to ground
generator also.
Connect generator to ground: Attach a 6 AWG
(10 mm
2
) copper wire to generator’s ground
connection and to a galvanized steel grounding
rod (not provided) driven 3.3 ft. (1 m) into
ground.
Connecting Alternating Current (AC)
NOTE: Ensure all electric devices including
lines and plug connection are in good
condition before connection to
generator.
NOTE: Ensure total load is within generator
rated output.
NOTE: Ensure receptacle load current is within
receptacle rated current.
1. Start engine.
2. Plug into AC receptacle (B or D).
3. Turn on any electric devices.
