OVERLOAD INDICATOR
The overload indicator light (Yellow) comes on when an overload of a connected
electrical device is detected, the inverter control unit overheats, or th e AC output
voltage rises. The electronic breaker will then activate, stopping power generation
in order to protect the generator and any connected electric devices . The AC pilot
light (Green) will go off and the overload indicator light (Yellow) will stay on, but the
engine will not stop running.
When the overload indicator light comes on and power generation stops, proceed
as follows:
1.Turn off any connected electric devices and stop the engine.
2.Reduce the total wattage of connected electric devices within the application range.
3.Check for blockages in the cooling air inlet and around the control unit. If any
blockages are found, remove them.
4.After checking, restart the engine.
TIP
• The generator AC output automatically resets when the engine is stopped and then
restarted.
• The overload indicator light (Yellow) may come on for a few seconds at first when using
electric devices that require a large starting current, such as a compressor or a
submersible pump. However, this is not a malfunction.
OIL ALERT INDICATOR
The Oil Alert system is designed to prevent engine damage caused by an insufficient
amount of oil in the crankcase. Before the oil level in the crankcase can fall below a safe
limit, the Oil Alert indicator (Yellow) comes on and the Oil Alert system automatically will
stop the engine (the engine switch will remain in the ON position).
If the engine stops or the Oil Alert indicator (yellow) comes on when you pull the starter
grip, check the engine oil level before troubleshooting in other areas.
