CONTROL PANEL
A.120 Volt GFCI Receptacle
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter duplex receptacle is rated
so that a total of 20 amps may be drawn regardless of whether
both halves or just one receptacle is used. This receptacle may
be used along with other receptacles provided the generator is
not overloaded and total power drawn is kept within nameplate
ratings.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(Conforms to U.L 943, Class A and NEC requirements)
This device protects you against hazardous electrical shock
that may be caused if your body becomes a path through which
electricity travels to reach ground. This could happen when
you touch an appliance or cord that is “ live “ through faulty
mechanism, damp or worn insulation, etc.
B.120 Volt, 30 Ampere Twistlock Receptacle
You may draw a maximum of 30 amps from this
receptacle. If other receptacles are used at the same time,
total power used must be kept within nameplate ratings.
E.Idle Control Switch
The Idle Control circuit is designed to extend engine life
and improve fuel usage by slowing the engine down to
approximately 2000 RPM in a “No Load” condition. The noise is
also greatly reduced during this condition.
When power is required from the generator an electronic
control module automatically senses current flow in the
electrical outlet and allows the engine to return to full speed or
standard operating condition. Likewise, when the load is
removed, the generator will automatically return to the idle
condition after a 4-5 second delay.
A convenient switch is mounted in the control panel for
easy access and will disable the Idle Control circuitry when in
the off position.
NOTE: A 12V battery must be installed in order for the
idle control to function.
F.CordKeeper™ Restraint
The CordKeeper™ restraint is a unique
feature used to prevent plugs from being
pulled out of the receptacles.
POWER CORD CONNECTIONS
Refer to the appropriate diagram for proper connection of
power cord wires to the plug terminals.
CAUTION: Insure that the power cord used is
well insulated and has a sufficient rating to
match that of the plug.
C.120/240 Volt Heavy Duty Receptacle
This receptacle is rated at 50 amps but the current must be
limited to the nameplate rating. If this receptacle is used along
with the 120 volt receptacles, the total load drawn must not
exceed the nameplate ratings.
D.Circuit Breakers
The receptacles are protected by an AC circuit breaker. If
the generator is overloaded or an external short circuit occurs,
the circuit breaker will trip. If this occurs, disconnect all
electrical loads and try to determine the cause of the problem
before attempting to use the generator again. If overloading
causes the circuit breaker to trip, reduce the load. NOTE:
Continuous tripping of the circuit breaker may cause
damage to generator or equipment. The circuit breaker may
be reset by pushing the button of the breaker.

ELECTRIC START WIRING
The generator is equipped with electric start. An “Off-OnStart” rotary key switch is provided on the recoil end panel. All
necessary wiring is provided. The battery is customer provided.
See engine manual for wiring diagram (3A Charge Coil), and
additional information.
DC FEATURES
WARNING: Batteries contain sulfuric
acid (when filled). May contain explosive
gasses. Always abide by safety warnings
provided with the battery.
-Keep sparks, flame and cigarettes away.
-Hydrogen gas is generated during
charging and discharging.
-Always shield eyes, protect skin and
clothing when working near batteries.
The charging system of the unit is supplied by the
starter/alternator of the engine. 12 volts DC is constantly
charging the battery when the unit is running . Disconnecting
the battery will stop the charging of the battery.
Before charging a storage battery, check the electrolyte
fluid level in all the cells. (Sealed batteries do not require
checking). Add distilled water to each cell if necessary, to bring
the level back up to the manufacturer’s required level.
WARNING: Storage batteries give off
EXPLOSIVE hydrogen gas while charging. Do
not allow smoking, open flames, sparks, or
spark producing equipment in the area while
charging.
WARNING: Battery electrolyte fluid is
comprised of sulfuric acid that can be very
dangerous and cause severe burns. Do not
allow this fluid to contact eyes, skin, clothing,
etc. If contact or spillage does occur, flush
the area with water immediately.
CAUTION: This battery charging system is
intended to recharge weak batteries, not to
"boost start" vehicles. Do not overcharge
battery or leave battery unattended.
Connect the red 8 ga. battery lead to the positive (+)
battery post and the black 8 ga. battery to the negative (-)
battery post with the bolts and nuts provided.
CAUTION: Do not continue to charge a
battery that becomes hot or is fully charged.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
Coleman Powermate, Inc. recommends a 12 V battery with
at least 235 cranking amps, Model U1L, Lawn and Garden
Battery. Place the battery in the position provided. Place the
spacers and washers on the bolts, then place the bolts through
the loops on the Hold-Down bracket. Place the assembly over
the battery and place the bolts through the holes on the battery
pan and tighten down the Hold-Down assembly with the 1/4-20
nuts provided.
Spacers may be removed depending on the battery height.

PORTABILITY KIT INSTALLATION
TOOLS REQUIRED: Hammer, 1/2” wrench, ratchet with a 1/2” socket, and wood blocks.
Refer to the drawing for proper alignment of Foot bracket and Wheel brackets.
Refer to the parts list on pages 15 and 16.
Wheel Bracket & Wheel Installation
1. Block up end of generator, about 8” high, opposite the fuel tank cap to install wheels and wheel bracket assy.
2.Add 5/16 washer (item 29) to the 1 3/4” bolts (item 71) and insert bolts/washers through the holes located in the base pan of
the carrier.
3.Place the wheel bracket (item 65) through the bolts and add a 5/16 nyloc nut (item 27) and tighten securely. (On the bottom
side of the pan in-between the holes will be a 1” square brace, the wheel bracket will set on this brace).
4.Add wheel spacer (item 70) to the axle.
5.Slide the wheel (item 64) onto the axle until it is snug against the spacer. The wheel is on correctly if there is approximately a
1/2” gap between the carrier tubing and the side of the wheel. If it is less then 1/2” from the carrier, turn the wheel over and
reinstall. Align the wheels parallel to the carrier tubing and tighten nuts securly. To align correctly, the bolts holding the wheel
bracket may have to be loosened.
6.With a hammer, add the plastic cap (item 69) on end of axle.
