CONNECTION
WARNING
Before the generator can be connected to a building’s electrical system, a licensed electrician must install an isolation (transfer) switch in the building’s main fuse box. The switch is the connection point for generator power and allows selection of generator or main line power to the building. This will prevent the generator from charging the main power line (backfeeding) when the main power supply has failed or has been turned off for line repair. Backfeeding can electrocute or injure line maintenance personnel. Also, generator and building electrical system damage can occur when normal operating power returns if unit is used without an isolation switch.

EXTENSION CORD NOTES
Extension cords should be protected by a tough flexible rubber sheath (IEC 245) or the equivalent to withstand mechanical stresses.

|
|
7DK-018 |
1 7 “ON” |
|
|
Ignition circuit is switched on.
The engine can be started.
2 5 “STOP”
Ignition circuit is switched off. The engine will not run.
AE00111
Oil warning light (Red)
When the oil level falls below the lower level, the oil warning light comes on and then the engine stops automatically. Unless you refill with oil, the engine will not start again.
TIP
If the engine stalls or does not start, turn the engine switch to “ON” and then pull the recoil starter. If the oil warning light flickers for a few seconds, the engine oil is insufficient. Add oil and restart.
700-115
DC protector
The DC protector turns off 2 automatically when electric device being connected to the generator is operating and current above the rated flows. To use this equipment again, turn on the DC protector by pressing its button to “ON” 1.
1 “ON”
Direct current is output. (This is the default position.)
2 “OFF”
Direct current is not output.

Economy control switch
1 I “ON”
When the economy control switch is turned to “ON” 1, the economy control unit controls the engine speed according to the connected load. The results are better fuel consumption and less noise.
2 3 “OFF”
When the economy control switch is turned to “OFF” 2, the engine runs at the rated r/min (4,500 r/min) regardless of whether is a load connected or not.
TIP
The economy control switch must be turned to “OFF” 2 when using electric devices that require a large starting current, such as a compressor of a submergible pump.
AC pilot light (Green)
The AC pilot light 1 comes on when the engine starts and produces power.
– 8 –

7DK-021
7DK-022
AE01087
Overload indicator light (Red)
The overload indicator light 1 comes on when an overload of a connected electrical device is detected, the inverter control unit overheats, or the AC output voltage rises. Then, the AC protector will trip, 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 (Red) 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 rated output.
3.Check for blockages in the cooling air inlet and around the control unit. If any blockages are found, remove.
4.After checking, restart the engine.
TIP
The overload indicator light 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 submergible pump. However, this is not a malfunction.
Fuel tank cap
Remove the fuel tank cap by turning it counterclockwise.

Fuel tank cap air vent knob
The fuel tank cap 2 is provided with an air vent knob 1 to stop fuel flow.
The air vent knob must be turned to “ON”. This will allow fuel to flow to the carburetor and the engine to run. When the engine is not in use, turn the air vent knob to “OFF” to stop fuel flow.
Fuel cock knob
The fuel cock supplies fuel from the fuel tank to the carburetor.
The fuel cock has two positions.
1 “ON”
With the knob in this position, fuel flows to the carburetor. Normal using is done with the knob in this position.
2 “OFF”
With the knob in this position, fuel will not flow. Always turn the knob to this position when the engine is not running.
Ground (Earth) terminal
Ground (Earth) terminal 1 connects the earth line for prevention of electric shock.
When the electric device is earthed, always the generator must be earthed.
Twin Tech
(Terminal for Connecting special cables for parallel running)
This is the terminal for connecting special cables for parallel running of two EF2000iS. The parallel running requires two EF2000iS and the special cables. (The rated output in parallel running is 3.0 kVA and the rated current is 25.0 A.)
The handling, operation procedure and the notes on usage are described in the PARALLEL RUNNING KIT OWNER’S MANUAL included in the Parallel Running Kit. Consult a Yamaha dealer for this Parallel Running Kit.
