You must
make sure
your
generator
can supply
enough
rated
(running)
and
surge
(starting)
watts
for the
items
you
will power
at the same time.
Follow
these
simple
steps:
I.
Select
the
items
you will power
at the
same
time.
2.
Total
the
rated
(running)
watts
of these
items.This
is
the
amount
of power
your
generator
must
produce
to
keep
your
items
running.
See
Figure
8.
3.
Estimate
how
many
surge
(starting)
watts
you
wiil
need.
Surge
wattage
is the
short
burst
of power
needed
to
start
electric
motor-driven
tools
or
appliances
such
as a circular
saw or refrigerator.
Because
not ail motors
start
at the
same
time+ total
surge
watts
can be estimated
by adding
only
the
item(s)
with
the
highest
additional
surge
watts
to the
total
rated
watts
from
step
:2.

Management
To prolong
the life of your
generator
and attached
devices,
it is important
to take
care
when
adding
electrical
loads
to
your
generator.There
should
be nothing
connected
to the
generator
oudets
before
starting
it's engine.The
correct
and
safe way to manage
generator
power
is to sequentially
add loads as follows:
I.
With nothing
connected
to the generator,
start the
engine as described in this manual.
:2.
Plug in and turn on the first load, preferably
the largest
load you have.
3.
Permit
the generator
output
to stabilize
(engine runs
smoothly
and attached
device operates
properly.
4.
Plug in and turn on the next load.
5.
Again+ permit
the generator
to stabilize.
6.
Repeat
steps 4 and 5 for each additional
load.
NEVER add more
loads than the generator
capacity.Take
special care to consider
surge loads in generator
capacity,
as described
above.
