CONTROL PANEL
G. Battery Charger
NOT RECOMMENDED FOR USE WITH GEL PACK,
SEALED OR SMALL (MOTORCYCLE) BATTERIES.
These generators contain an additional circuit used for
battery charging purposes. A double binding post is provided
on the control panel. The battery charger on this generator is
referred to as an unregulated taper charger - the most widely
used in the market today. The amount of current flowing will
depend on the charging voltage and battery's state of charge.
As the battery becomes more fully charged, the output current
to the battery decreases and nearly becomes constant. Taper
chargers are intended to be used with the provision that they
will be disconnected from the battery after a maximum time on
charge. Normally a period of 30 to 120 minutes is sufficient to
recharge a weak battery. The charge level of the battery
should be checked periodically.
A. 120 V, 20 Ampere Duplex Receptacle
This duplex is split so that 20 amps of current may be
drawn from each half of the receptacle. However, total power
drawn must be kept within nameplate ratings. These
receptacles may be used along with the twistlock receptacle
provided the generator is not overloaded.
B. 120/240 V, 30 Ampere Twistlock Receptacle
A maximum of 30 amps may be drawn from the 120/240
volt receptacle, provided it is the only receptacle used.
However, current must be limited to the nameplate rating. If the
120/240 volt receptacle is used along with the 120 volt
receptacle, the total load drawn must not exceed the nameplate
ratings.
C. Idle Control Switch
Some models are equipped with an idle control switch.
(See Idle Control).
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.
CAUTION: This battery charging system is
intended to recharge weak batteries, not to
"boost start" vehicles. Do not overcharge
battery or leave battery unattended.
Note: When the battery charger circuit is in use, the AC
capacity is reduced by 180 watts. Make sure the combined
load is within the rated limits.
Before charging a storage battery, check the electrolyte
fluid level in all the cells. 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.
Use cables approved for battery charging. Connect a red
clip to the positive terminal of the battery. Connect a black clip
to the negative terminal of the battery. Connect the other end
of the clip wire to the corresponding black(-) and red (+)binding
posts on the generator panel. After the battery is fully charged,
remove the battery charging cable from the generator and then
disconnect from the battery posts.
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.
E. Hour Meter
An hour meter is provided to keep track of run time of the
unit. This may be used to track maintenance schedules.
F.Voltmeter
Provides visual indication of generator output voltage from
0-300 volts.

WARNING: Do not continue to charge a
battery that becomes hot or is fully charged.
DC CIRCUIT BREAKER: The maximum current available
from the battery charger circuit is 15 amps. An automatic DC
circuit breaker has been provided to protect the circuit from
overloads and assure that the battery gets recharged. If an
overload occurs, the circuit breaker will trip. After it cools, it will
automatically reset itself. The battery's maximum rate of
charge will eventually reduce to less than 15 amps and then to
zero as the battery approaches a 100 percent state of charge.

WHAT IS COVERED: Replacement parts and labor.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED: Transportation charges to
Coleman Powermate, Inc. for defective products.
Transportation charges to consumer for repaired products.
Brushes, fuses, rubber feet, and receptacles. Damages
caused by abuse, accident, improper repair, or failure to
perform normal maintenance. Power units or engines which
are covered exclusively by the warranties of their manufacturer.
Sales outside of the United States or Canada. Any other
expense including consequential damages, incidental
damages, or incidental expenses, including damage to
property. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation
of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation
or exclusion may not apply to you.

federal, state, or municipal law, and cannot be preempted, it
shall not be applicable. This warranty gives you specific rights,
and you may also have other rights which vary from state to
state.
IDLE CONTROL OPERATION
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.

REMARQUE : Le groupe électrogène ou les appareils
branchés dessus peuvent se trouver abîmés si le
disjoncteur saute continuellement. Appuyer sur le bouton du
disjoncteur pour le réenclencher.
E. Competeur Horaire
Le competeur horaire est installé afin de tenir le registre du
temps de fonctionnement de la génératrice. Il peut permette de
respecter les caledriers d’entetien.
F.Voltage métre
Suppléer visuel signé de générateur rendement voltage de
0-300 volt.
G. Chargeur de batterie
Utilisation non recommandée avec les ensembles piles
(de motocyclettes) sèches et étanches de petit format.
Ces génératrices renferment un circuit d'appoint aux fins
de chargement de la batterie. Le tableau de commande est
muni d'une borne à double vis de serrage. Le chargeur de
batterie intégré à la génératrice est un chargeur non régulé du
type de ceux qui sont actuellement le plus utilisés sur le
marché. Le débit de courant produit dépend de la tension de
chargement et de l'état de charge de la batterie. Comme la pile
devient plus entièrement chargée, le courant de production aux
diminutions de pile et devient presque constant. Les chargeurs
non régulés sont destinés à servir à la condition d'être
débranchés de la batterie après l'expiration du délai de
chargement à bloc. Il suffit normalement de 30 à 120 minutes
pour recharger une batterie à plat. Le niveau de charge de
cette dernière doit faire l'objet d'une vérification périodique.
ATTENTION : Ce chargeur est destiné à la
recharge des batteries et non pas au
démarrage des véhicules en panne. Éviter de
charger la batterie à l'excès ou de la laisser
sans surveillance.
Remarque: Lorsqu’on utilise le circuit du chargeur de pile,
la capacité du courant alternatif est réduite par 180 watts.
Assurez-vous que la charge combinée reste à l’intérieur des
limites de régime.
Avant de recharger une batterie, vérifiez le niveau de
liquide électrolytique dans tous les éléments. Ajoutez de l’eau
distillée à chaque élément, si nécessaire, pour ramener le
niveau à celui exigé par le fabricant.
DANGER : Les accumulateurs en train de
recharger dégagent du gaz hydrogène
DETONANT. Il doit être formellement interdit
de fumer ou de produire des flammes ou des
étincelles à proximité lorsque vous rechargez
des accus.
D. Disjoncteurs
Les prises sont protégées par un disjoncteur alternatif. En
cas de surcharge ou de court-circuit extérieur, le disjoncteur
saute. Si cela se produit, débrancher tout appareil relié au
groupe électrogène et essayer de déterminer la cause du
problème avant d’essayer de le réutiliser. Si le disjoncteur
