Duty Cycle is percentage of 10 min-

utes that unit can cut at rated load

without overheating.

If unit overheats, thermostat(s)

opens, output stops, Temperature

trouble light goes On, and cooling

fan runs. Wait fifteen minutes for

unit to cool or temperature light to

go off. Reduce amperage or duty

cycle before cutting.
