SAFETY OPERATION MAINTENANCESETUP

Overload Indicator

Note: The OVERLOAD light may turn on for a few seconds as a large device starts up.

This is normal for loads approaching the capacity of this Generator.

1. The total combined load through the

outlet on the Generator must not exceed

the running power of the unit.

2. When approaching the maximum running watts of

the Generator, the OVERLOAD indicator will blink.

Adding more loads will overload the Generator.

3. If the OVERLOAD light turns on and the Generator

stops producing power, it has been overloaded.

4. Turn off and disconnect all electrical devices and

stop the Engine. Compare device requirements

to Generator rating and reduce the total wattage

of connected devices if necessary. Move anything

that may be limiting Generator ventilation away.

5. Check if any circuit breakers have tripped

and make sure that ALL circuit breakers are

reset before starting the Generator again.

6. Restart the Engine and reconnect devices while

being careful to not overload Generator.

Low Oil Indicator

1. If the Engine oil level is too low, the LOW OIL light

turns on and the Engine will automatically shut off.

2. The Engine cannot be restarted until the proper

amount of oil has been added. Add the appropriate

type of oil until the oil level is at the proper level.

SAE 10W-30 oil is recommended for general use.

NOTICE: Do not run the engine with too little oil.

Engine will shut off if engine oil level is too low.

Note: The LOW OIL light will blink if the Generator

stops due to CO sensor shutoff. This does not

indicate low oil. Follow all instructions under

Carbon Monoxide Shutoff on page 12.

Economy (ESC) Switch

1. Turn the Economy (ESC) Switch ON to limit noise

and fuel consumption for lighter generator loads.

2. Turn the Economy (ESC) Switch OFF

to operate engine at full speed:

a. when starting

b. when a heavy load is applied

Stopping the Engine

To stop the Engine in an emergency,

turn the Switch OFF.

Under normal conditions, use the following

procedure to shut off the Generator:

1. Turn all electrical load devices off and

unplug them from the Generator.

2. If the Economy (ESC) Switch is ON,

turn it to the OFF position.

3. Close the Fuel Valve.
