Stopping
the Engine
1.
Unplug all electdcal loads from unit. NEVER start
or stop engine with electrical devices plugged in
and turned on.
2.
Let engine run at no-load for two minutes to
stabilize unit's internal temperatures.
3.
Move rocker switch to "Off" position.
4.
Move fuel valve to "Off" position.
CAUTION
• DO NOT stop engine
by moving
choke
lever to "Choke"
position.
Connecting
E_ectrica_ Loads
•
Let the engine stabilize and warm up for a few
minutes after starting.
•
DO NOT connect 240 Volt loads to 120 Volt
receptacles.
•
DO NOT connect 3-phase loads to the generator.
•
DO NOT connect 50 Hz loads to the generator.
•
Plug in and turn on the desired 120 Volt AC, single
phase, 60 Hertz electrical loads.
•
DO NOT OVERLOAD THE GENERATOR.
See
"Don't Overload Generator".
CORD SETS AND RECEPTACLES
Use only high quality, well:insulated,
extension cords
with the generator's 120 Volt electrical receptacles.
Check the ratings of all extension cords before you
use them. Extension cord sets used should be rated
for 125 Volt AC loads at 20 Amps or greater for most
electrical devices. Some devices, however, may not
require this type of extension cord. Check the owner's
manuals of those devices for the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Keep extension cords as short as possible, preferably
less than 15 feet long, to prevent voltage drop and
possible overheating of wires.

CAUTION
NEVER
attempt
to power
a device
requiring
more
amperage
than generator
or receptacle
can supply,
DO NOT overload
the generator,

120 Volt AC, 15 Amp Dupmex Receptacle
Each receptacle is protected against overload by a
single 15 Amp push-to-reset circuit breaker. Use each
receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, single phase 60 Hz
electrical loads requiring up to 1,800 watts (1.8 kW) at
15 Amps of current.
