2.2 CONNECTION PLUGS
2.2.1 120 VAC, 20 AMP, DUPLEX RECEPTACLE
This is a 120 Volt outlet protected against overload by a 20 Amp
push-to-reset circuit breaker (Figure 5). Use each socket to power
120 Volt AC, single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to a
combined 2400 watts (2.4 kW) or 20 Amps of current. Use only
high quality, well-insulated, 3-wire grounded cord sets rated for
125 Volts at 20 Amps (or greater).
Keep extension cords as short as possible, preferably less than
15 feet long, to prevent voltage drop and possible overheating of
wires.
Figure 5 - 120 Volt AC, 20 Amp, Duplex Receptacle
2.2.2 120/240 VAC, 30 AMP RECEPTACLE
Use a NEMA L14-30 plug with this receptacle (rotate to lock/
unlock). Connect a suitable 4-wire grounded cord set to the plug
and to the desired load. The cord set should be rated for 250 Volts
AC at 30 Amps (or greater) (Figure 6).
Figure 6 - 120/240 VAC, 30 Amp Receptacle
Use this receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single phase
loads requiring up to 3600 watts (3.6 kW) of power at 30 Amps or
240 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 7200 watts
(7.2 kW) of power at 30 Amps. The outlet is protected by a 2-pole
toggle switch circuit breaker.
2.3 HOW TO USE THE GENERATOR
If there are any problems operating the generator, please call the
generator helpline at 1-885-GEN-INFO.
NEVER operate in an enclosed area or indoors!
NEVER use in the home, or in partly enclosed
areas such as garages, EVEN IF doors and
windows are open! ONLY use outdoors and far
from open windows, doors, vents, and in an
area that will not accumulate deadly exhaust.
The engine exhaust fumes contain carbon
monoxide, which you cannot see or smell.
This poisonous gas, if breathed in sufficient
concentrations, can cause unconsciousness or
even death.
Adequate, unobstructed flow of cooling and
ventilating air is critical to correct generator
operation. Do not alter the installation or permit
even partial blockage of ventilation provisions,
as this can seriously affect safe operation
of the generator. The generator MUST be
operated outdoors.
This exhaust system must be properly
maintained. Do nothing that might render the
exhaust system unsafe or in noncompliance
with any local codes and/or standards.
Always use a battery operated carbon
monoxide alarm indoors, installed according to
the manufacturers instructions.
