Equipment Description
Read this manual carefully and become familiar
with your outdoor generator. Know its applications,
its limitations, and any hazards involved. Save
these original instructions for future reference.
The outdoor generator is an engine-driven, revolving
field, alternating and direct current (AC & DC) generator.
It was designed to supply electrical power for operating
compatible electrical lighting, appliances, tools and motor
loads. The generator's revolving field is driven by a single-
cylinder engine.
The portable generator can be used to power outdoor items
using extension cords or for providing power to your travel trailer/
recreational vehicle (RV) with the optional parallel kit. DO NOT
connect generator to a home's electrical system.
The generator is not intended to supply systems that are legally
required, for serious life safety or health hazards, or where lack of
power hampers rescue of fire-fighting operations.
Every effort has been made to ensure that the information in this
manual is both accurate and current. However, the manufacturer
reserves the right to change, alter or otherwise improve the
generator and this documentation at any time without prior notice.
NOTICE If you have questions about intended use, contact an
authorized service dealer. This equipment is designed to be used
with Briggs & Stratton® authorized parts only.
System Ground
The generator neutral is floating, which means that the
neutral wire is isolated from the grounding fastener and the
AC receptacle ground pins. On a floating neutral generator
the AC receptacle ground pins are not functional. Electrical
devices, such as a GFCI, requiring a functioning AC
receptacle ground pin will not operate.
Special Requirements
There may be federal or state regulations, local codes, or
ordinances that apply to the intended use of the generator.
Please consult a qualified electrician, electrical inspector,
or the local agency having jurisdiction.
This generator is not intended to be used at a construction
site or similar activity as defined by NFPA 70-2017 (NEC)
section 590.6.
