2.4 HOWTOUSETHEGENERATOR

If there are any problems operatingthe generator,pleasecall the generatorhetplineat 1-888-436-3722.

Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU iN MINUTES. Generator exhaust contains carbon monoxide. This is

a poison you cannot see or smell

NEVER use inside a home

or garage, EVEN IF doors and windows are open.

Only use OUTSIDE and

far away from windows,

doors, and vents.

2.4.1 GROUNDINGTHEGENERATOR

The National Electrical Code requires that the frame and

external electrically conductive parts of this generator be properlyconnectedto an approvedearth ground (Figure 8). Local electrical codes may also requireproper groundingof the unit. Forthatpurpose, connectinga No. 10 AWG(AmericanWire Gauge) stranded copper wire to the grounding lug and to an earth-driven copper or brass grounding rod (electrode)provides adequateprotectionagainstelectricalshock. However,local codes may vary widely. Consultwith a localelectricianfor grounding requirementsin the area.

Figure8 - Groundingthe Generator

GROL_

LUG

Proper groundingof the generatorwill help preventelectrical shockin the event of a ground fault condition in the generator

or in connected electrical devices. Proper groundingalso helps dissipate static electricity,which often builds up in ungrounded

devices.

2.4.2 CONNECTINGELECTR/CALLOADS

DONOTconnect240 Volt loadsto 120Volt receptacles.DO NOT connect 3-phaseloads to the generator.DO NOTconnect 50 Hz loadsto thegenerator.

• Let engine stabilize and warm up for a few minutes after

starting.

• Plug in and turn on the desired 120 or 240 Volt AO, single

phase,60 Hzelectrical loads.

• Addup the ratedwatts (or amps) of all loadsto be connected

at onetime. Thistotal should not begreaterthan (a) the rated wattage/amperagecapacity of the generator or (b) circuit breakerratingof thereceptaclesupplyingthe power.See"Don't

Overloadthe Generator".

2.5 DON'TOVERLOADTHEGENERATOR

Overloadinga generator in excessof its ratedwattage capacity can resultin damageto the generatorandto connectedelectrical devices.Observethefollowing to preventoverloadingthe unit:

• Addupthetotal wattageofall electricaldevicesto be connected

at one time. This total should NOT be greater than the generator'swattagecapacity.

• The ratedwattageof lights can betaken from light bulbs.The ratedwattageof tools, appliancesand motors can usually be

foundon a data labelor decalaffixedto the device.

• If the appliance,tool or motor does not give wattage,multiply voltstimes ampereratingto determinewatts (voltsx amps = watts).

• Some electric motors, such as inductiontypes, require about threetimes morewatts of powerfor startingthan for running. This surge of power lasts only a few seconds when starting suchmotors. Makesureto allowfor highstartingwattagewhen selectingelectrical devicesto connectto the generator:

1. Figurethe watts neededto start the largestmotor.

2. Add to that figure the running watts of all other connected

loads.

TheWattageReferenceGuideis providedto assist in determining how manyitemsthegeneratorcan operateat onetime.

NOTE:

All figures are approximate. See data label on appliance for wattage requirements.

If the system senses a low oil level during operation,the engine shuts down.The enginewill not run until the oil has beenrefilled

to the properlevel.

2.12CHARGINGTHEBATTERY(ELECTRICSTART

UNITSONLY)

Storage batteries give off explosive hydrogen

gas while recharging. An explosive mixture will remain around the battery for a long time after it has been charged. The slightest spark can ignite the hydrogen and cause an explosion. Such an explosion can shatter the battery and cause blindness or other serious injury.

,_Do not permit smoking, open flame, sparks

or any other source of heat around a battery.

Wear protective goggles, rubber apron and

rubber gloves when working around a battery. Battery electrolyte fluid is an extremely

corrosive sulfuric acid solution that can cause severe burns, if spill occurs flush area with

clear water immediately.
