Connecting
Electrical
Loads
• Let engine stabilize and warm up for a few minutes after
starting.
• Plug in and turn on the desired 120VoltAC, single phase,
60 Hz electrical loads.
• DO NOT connect 240Volt loads to the 120Volt duplex
receptacles.
• DO NOT connect 3_hase loads to the generator.
• DO NOT connect 50 Hz loads to the generator.
• DO NOT OVERLOAD
GENERATOR. See"Don't
Overload Generator" on page 9.
Stopping the Engine
• Unplug all electrical loadsfrom generator panel
receptacles.NEVER start or stop engine with electrical
devices plugged in and turned ON.
• Let engine run at no-load for several minutes to stabilize
the internal temperatures of engine and generator.
• Move rocker switch to "Off'
position.
• Move the fuel valve to the "Off'
position.
RECEPTACLES
This generator
is equipped with the following
receptacles:
120 Volt AC, 20 Amp
Duplex
Receptacle
This receptacle (Figure 6) is protected against overload by
a push-to-reset circuit breaker.
Use each receptacle to operate 120Volt AC, single-phase,
60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to 2,400 watts (2.4 kW)
at 20 Amps of current. Use cord sets that are rated for
125Volts at 20 Amps (or greater).
120/240 Volt AC, 20 Amp
Locking
Receptacle
Use a NEMA LI4-20 plug with this receptacle. Connect a
4-wire cord set rated for 250 Volts at 20 Amps (or greater)
(Figure 7).You can use the same 4-wire cord if you plan to
run a 120Volt load.

This receptacle powers 120/240Volt AC, 60 Hz, single
phase loads requiring up to 2,400 watts of power at
20Amps for 120Volts; 3,200 watts of power (3.2 kW) at
13.3Amps for 240 Volts.The outlet is protected by a
20 Amp push-to-reset circuit breaker.
_
CAUTION!
Although this outlet is rated for
240Volt 20 Amp (up to 4,800 watts), the generator
is only rated for 3,200 watts. Powering loads that
exceed the wattage/amperage capacity of the
generator can damageit or cause serious injuries.
240 Volt loads powered through this outlet should
not exceed 13.3Amps of current draw.
