Economy Control Switch
The Economy Control switch can be activated in
order to minimize fuel consumption and noise
while operating the unit during times of reduced
electrical output, allowing the engine speed to
idle during periods of non-use. The engine speed
returns to normal when an electrical load is
connected. When the economy switch is off, the
engine runs at normal speed continuously.
NOTICE:
For periods of high electrical load or momentary
fluctuations, the Economy Control Switch should
be turned OFF.
Stopping the Engine
1. Turn off and remove entire electrical loads.
