Maintaining Your Generator
Connections for standby power to a building’s electrical system must be done by a
qualified electrician and must comply with all applicable laws and electrical codes.
Improper connections may cause serious injuries to electrical worker during power
outages. Additionally, the generator may explode or cause fires when the utility power
is restored.
WARNING!
•
To prevent electrical shock from faulty appliances, the generator should be grounded.
•
Limit operation requiring maximum power to 30 minutes.
•
Do not exceed the current limit specified for any one receptacle.
•
Do not connect the generator to a household circuit.
•
Do not modify or use the generator for other purposes than it is intended for.
•
Be sure to use properly isolated cable when an extension cable is required.
•
Limit length of extension cables to 60 m for cables of 1.5 mm wire thickness
and 100 m for cables of 2.5 mm wire thickness.
•
Keep the generator away from other electric cables or wires, such as a
distribution network.
•
The DC receptacle can be used while the AC power is in use. If you use both
at the same time, be sure not to exceed the total power for AC and DC.
•
Before connecting a device to the generator, make sure the electrical rating of
the device does not exceed the electrical rating of the generator.
•
Be sure the device is turned off before plugging in the power cord.
•
When the output indicator light (green) is OFF, and the overload indicator light
(red) is ON, flip the engine switch to the STOP position, stop the engine at once
and then start the engine again.
NOTICE
•
Under normal operating conditions, the output indicator light (Green) will be ON
•
When a connected device draws high startup power the overload and output
indicator light may briefly illuminate, but this is to be expected. Once the device
starts up the overload indicator light will shut off and the output light will remain
green. If the generator is overloaded (in excess 100W), or if there is a short
circuit in a connected device, the overload indicator light (Red) will be ON.
•
Substantial overloading that continuously lights the overload indicator light (red)
may damage the generator. Marginal overloading that temporarily lights the
overload indicator (red) may shorten the service life of the generator.
