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.
GFCI Receptacle
Electrical Shock can cause injury.
Do not touch wires while
generator is running.
Never operate generator in rain or snow.
Never touch generator with wet hands or
electrical shock may occur.
To reduce chance of electrical shock:
1. Do not attempt to operate equipment if
ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) RESET
button pops out repeatedly during use.
2. Remember that only receptacles labeled
GFCI have ground fault circuit interrupter
protection.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) stops
power to protected receptacles (Z) if a ground
fault (electrical leak) is detected. If RESET
button pops out, equipment plugged into
receptacle (Z) may be faulty. If this happens,
check equipment carefully. If equipment
appears to be in good condition, press RESET
button fi rmly until a click is heard. This will
restore power. If RESET button pops out again,
unplug equipment immediately. Contact a
Kohler portable dealer before attempting to use
it again.
GFCI Receptacle Test
1. Start generator.
2. Press TEST button, if functioning properly
RESET button should pop out, stopping
power to outlet.
3. If GFCI operation is correct, push RESET
button in. If GFCI operates incorrectly,
contact a Kohler portable dealer.
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.

CAUTION

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 (X) and circuit breaker (Q) will
stop power to protected receptacles (O, P or
Z) 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.
Battery Charging Using DC Receptacle
Electrical Shock can cause injury.
Do not touch wires while
generator is running.
Never operate generator in rain or snow.
Never touch generator with wet hands or
electrical shock may occur.
NOTE: This section refers to charging 12V
batteries in other equipment like motor
vehicles or off-road vehicles. No
jump-starting is possible.
NOTE: Follow safety procedures when
handling batteries to avoid damage to
electrical components and battery
explosions. Refer to battery
manufacturers safety data sheet on
safety risks of working with batteries.
Refer to battery manufacturer's
instruction on battery charging/
maintaining procedures.
NOTE: Generator DC rated voltage is 12V DC
circuit protector (X) will turn off
automatically if current above rated
fl ows during battery charging. Start
generator fi rst, then connect generator
to battery for charging. Before starting
to charge battery, ensure DC circuit
protector (X) is in RESET position. If
DC circuit protector (X) turns off again,
stop charging battery immediately and
contact a Kohler portable dealer.
