Connection Plugs

120 VAC, Duplex Receptacle
The 120 Volt outlet is overload protected by
the 20 Amp push button circuit protector. See
Figure 2-3.
Figure 2-3. 120 VAC, Duplex Receptacle
120 VAC, 30 Amp Receptacle
Use a NEMA L5-30R plug with this receptacle.
Connect a suitable 3-wire cord set to the plug
and to desired load. The cord set should be
rated for 125 Volts AC at 30 Amps (or greater).
See Figure 2-4.
Use this receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC,
60Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 3000
watts, 25 Amps starting power and 2300 watts
of continuous power at 19.2 Amps. The outlet
is protected by a 20 Amp push-to-reset circuit
breaker.

Off/Run/Choke Switch

This controls the ON/OFF functions, choke
and fuel valve operation. See
• The OFF position (1) stops the engine and
shuts off fuel flow.
• The RUN position (2) is for normal opera-
tion and to gradually reduce the use of the
choke.
• The CHOKE position (3) switches the fuel
valve on to start the engine.
NOTE: The CHOKE is not required to start a
warm engine.

Engine RPM is optimized to reduce fuel con-
sumption and noise.

Generator Status Lights

See Figure 2-6.
• Overload LED (
overload (2). During motor starting it is nor-
mal for the overload LED to illuminate for a
few seconds. If LED stays illuminated and
the ready LED turns off, the engine will con-
tinue to run without output power. Remove
all applied loads and determine if attached
devices exceed
power. Check for faulty or shorted connec-
tions. To restore electrical output, turn dial
OFF to reset. Start engine. If condition was
corrected, the orange LED will not illumi-
nate and electrical output will be restored.
Loads can be applied once the green LED
illuminates. If the orange LED returns, con-
tact an IASD.
• Low Oil Level LED (yellow): Illuminates
when oil level is below safe operating level.
Engine shuts down (1).
• Power LED (green): Indicates output from
generator (3) (unless there is a low oil or
overload condition).
