GENERATOR CAPACITy

Make sure the generator can supply enough continuous
(running) and surge (starting) watts for the items you will
power at the same time. Follow these simple steps.
1. Select the items you will power at the same time.
2. Total the continuous (running) watts of these items. This is
the amount of power the generator must produce to keep the
items running. See the wattage reference chart at right.
3. Estimate how many surge (starting) watts you will need.
Surge wattage is the short burst of power needed to start
electric motor-driven tools or appliances such as a circular
saw or refrigerator. Because not all motors start at the same
time, total surge watts can be estimated by adding only the
item(s) with the highest additional surge watts to the total
rated watts from step 2.
Example:
Continuous
Tool or Appliance
(Running) Watts
Window AC,
10,000 BTU
Refrigerator
1/3 HP Well Pump
27 in. Television
Light (75 Watts)
Running Watts
Total Continuous (Running) Watts
Plus Highest Additional Surge Watts
Equals Total Generator Output Required

POwER MANAGEMENT

To prolong the life of the generator and attached devices,
it is important to take care when adding electrical loads to
the generator. There should be nothing connected to the
generator outlets before starting its engine. The correct
and safe way to manage generator power is to sequentially
add loads as follows:
1. With nothing connected to the generator, start the engine as
described later in this manual.
2. Plug in and turn on the first load, preferably the largest load
you have.
3. Permit the generator output to stabilize (engine runs smoothly
and attached device operates properly).
4. Plug in and turn on the next load.
5. Again, permit the generator to stabilize.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each additional load.
Never add more loads than the generator capacity. Take
special care to consider surge loads in generator capacity
as previously described.

CAUTION:
Do not overload the generator's capacity. Exceeding the
generator's wattage/amperage capacity can damage the
generator and/or electrical devices connected to it.
