Use this receptacle to operate 120/240 Volt AC, 60 Hz
electrical loads requiring up to 7,500 watts (7.5 kW) of
power.

AUTION!
Although this outlet states it has a
240 Volt 50 Amp rating (up to 12,500 watts), the
generator is only rated for 7,500 watts.
Powering loads that exceed the wattage/
amperage capacity of the generator can
damage it and cause serious injuries.
HOW TO USE YOUR GENERATOR
If you have any problems operating your generator,
please call the generator helpline at 1-800-222-3136.
Grounding
The Generator
The National Electrical Code requires that the
frame and external electrically
conductive parts of
this generator be properly connected to an
approved earth ground. Local electrical codes may
also require proper grounding of the unit. For that
purpose, a grounding wing nut is provided on the
generator.
Grounding Wing Nut
Generally, connecting a No. 12 AWG (American Wire
Gauge) stranded copper wire to the grounding wing
nut and to an earth-driven copper or brass grounding
rod (electrode) provides adequate protection against
electrical shock. However, local codes may vary
widely. Consult
with a local electrician
for
grounding
requirements
in your area.
Proper grounding
of the generator
will help
prevent electrical
shock in the event of a ground
fault condition in the generator or in connected
electrical devices. Proper grounding also helps
dissipate static electricity, which often builds up in
ungrounded devices.
Connecting
Electrical
Loads
•
Do Not connect 240 Volt loads to 120 Volt
receptacles.
•
Do Not connect 3-phase loads to the generator.
•
Do Not connect 50 Hz loads to the generator.
•
Let engine stabilize and warm up for a few minutes
after starting.
•
Plug in and turn on the desired 120 or 240 Volt AC,
single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads.
•
Add up the rated watts (or amps) of all loads to be
connected at one time. This total should not be
greater than (a) the rated wattage/amperage
capacity of the generator or (b) circuit breaker
rating of the receptacle supplying the power. See
"Don't Overload the Generator" on page 12.
