OPERATION
FREQUENCY OF USE
If the generator will be used on an infrequent or intermit-
tent basis (more than one month before next use), refer
to the Battery Maintenance and Storage sections of this
manual for information regarding battery charging and fuel
deterioration.
CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The circuit breakers will automatically switch OFF if there
is a short circuit or a significant overload of the generator
at each receptacle. The main circuit breaker will automat-

exceeds 40 Amps.
If an AC circuit breaker switches OFF automatically, check
that the appliance is working correctly and it does not exceed
the rated load capacity of the circuit before resetting the AC
circuit breaker ON.
