HOUR METER

The hour meter tracks hours of operation for scheduled maintenance
(Figure 5):
There will be a "CHG OIL" message every 100 hours. The message
will flash one hour before and one hour after each 100 hour interval,
providing a two hour window to perform service.
This message will actually begin flashing at 99 hours and disable
itself at 101 hours again, providing a two hour window to perform the
service.
Every 200 hours the "SVC" icon on the lower left hand corner of the
display will flash. The message will flash one hour before and one
hour after each 200 hour interval providing a two hour window to
perform service.

When the hour meter is in the Flash Alert mode, the maintenance
message will always alternate with elapsed time in hours and tenths.
The hours will flash four times, then alternate with the maintenance
message four times until the meter resets itself.
• 100 hours - CHG OIL — Oil Change Interval (Every 100 hrs)
• 200 hours - SVC — Service Air Filter (Every 200 hrs)
The hour glass graphic will flash on and off when the engine
is running. This signifies that the meter is tracking hours of
operation.

CONNECTION PLUGS

2.3.1 120 VAC, 20 AMP, GFCI DUPLEX RECEPTACLE
This is a 120 Volt outlet protected against overload by a 20 Amp
push-to-reset circuit breaker (Figure 6). Use each socket to power
120 Volt AC, single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to a
combined 2400 watts (2.4 kW) or 20 Amps of current. Use only high
quality, well-insulated, 3-wire grounded cord sets rated for 125 Volts
at 20 Amps (or greater).
Keep extension cords as short as possible to prevent voltage drop
and possible overheating of wires.
Figure 6 - 120 Volt AC, 20 Amp, GFCI Duplex Receptacle
2.3.2 120/240 VAC, 30 AMP RECEPTACLE
Use a NEMA L14-30 plug with this receptacle (rotate to lock/unlock).
Connect a suitable 4-wire grounded cord set to the plug and to the
desired load. The cord set should be rated for 250 Volts AC at 30
Amps (or greater) (Figure 7).
Use this receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single phase loads
requiring up to 3600 watts (3.6 kW) of power at 30 Amps or 240 Volt
AC, 60 Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 7200 watts (7.2 kW)
of power at 30 Amps. The outlet is protected by two 25 Amp (5.5kW)
or two 30 Amp (6.5kW) push-to-reset or one 30 Amp 2-pole toggle
switch or two 30 Amp push button to reset (6.5/7.5kW) circuit breaker.
