system ground is not connected to the AC neutral wire.
Local regulations, codes or laws may require that the
ground system be connected to the AC neutral wire.
If the generator is tested by a receptacle tester, it will
not show the same ground circuit condition as a home
receptacle.
If local regulations, codes, or laws require the system
ground to be connected to the AC neutral wire, consult a
qualified electrician or electrical inspector.
The ground terminal (5) can be used to ground the
generator or bond the frame of the generator to the
frame of a vehicle, but only if it is required by local law
or electrical code. Before using the ground terminal
consult a qualified electrical inspector for regulations in
your area.
AC applications
Before connecting an appliance or power cord to the
generator:
∙
Make sure that it is in good working order. Faulty
appliances or power cords can create a potential for
electrical shock.
∙
If an appliance begins to operate abnormally,
becomes sluggish or stops suddenly, turn it off
immediately. Disconnect the appliance and determine
whether the problem is and if the appliance, or if the rated
load capacity of the generator has been exceeded.
∙
Make sure that the electrical rating of the tool or
appliance does not exceed that of the generator, Never
exceed the maximum power rating of the generator.
Power levels between rated and maximum may be used
for no more than 5 minutes.
NOTICE: substantial overloading will open the circuit
breaker. Exceeding the time limit for maximum power
operation or slightly overloading the generator may
not switch the circuit breaker OFF, but will shorten
the service life of the generator.
Limit operation requiring maximum power to < 30
minutes.
∙
For continuous operation, do not exceed the rated
power.
∙
In either case, the total power requirements (W)
of all appliances connected must be considered. Pay
attention to the power factor of your load. Always
calculate the absorption of the load to be applied to the
generator beforehand. For the generator's power, refer
to the technical data label.
∙
For the power of the connected appliances, refer to the
power consumption indicated on their technical data labels.
Appliance and power tool manufacturers usually list rating
information near the model number or serial number.

Most motorized appliances require more than their
rated wattage for startup.
Do not exceed the current limit specified for any one
receptacle. If an overloaded circuit causes the AC circuit
breaker to switch OFF, reduce the electrical load on the
circuit, wait a few minutes and then reset the AC circuit
breaker (6).
DC Operation
The DC terminals may ONLY be used for charging 12
volt automotive-type batteries.
