1,850W PORTABLE GASOLINE GENERATOR GROUNDING Oil Capacity: 13.5 oz. / 0.4 liters 1. Use the ground terminal on the generator to connect the unit to a suitable ground source. Securely fasten the end terminal of the ground wire to the ground terminal on the generator. 2. A 10-gauge copper wire should be used to connect the ground terminal of the generator to the grounding rod. A wire that is too thin may not provide sufficient electrical current carrying capacity to be an adequate ground path. 3.
1,850W PORTABLE GASOLINE GENERATOR LOAD AND PROTECTOR 1. Total combined load through any combination of receptacles must not exceed rated power of generator. 2. Reduce load if AC protector or DC protector (circuit breaker) turns off. Press button to reset. ENGINE BREAK-IN The break-in period for the generator’s engine is the first 25 hours of operation. During this timeframe, DO NOT exceed 75% of the generator’s load limit.
