Do not connect 3-phase loads to generator.
CAUTION!
120 / 240 Volt AC, 30 Amp locking receptacle
• This receptacle has a 30 Amp push-to reset circuit breaker to protect against overload.
• This receptacle is rated to operate 120 Volt, AC, single phase, 60Hz loads requiring up to 3600 watts (3.6 kW) at 30
Amps. It is also rated to operate 240 Volt AC, single phase, 60Hz loads requiring up to 7,200 watts (7.2 kW).
• Use a NEMA L14-30 plug with this receptacle.
• Use a 4-wire cord rated for 240 Volts AC, 30 Amps to the plug. You can use the same 4-wire cord to operate a 120
Volt load.
12 Volt 8.3 Amp Output is for charging batteries only!
WARNING!
Extension Cord Selection
Refer to the below table to ensure the extension cord used has the capacity to carry the required load. If the size of the
cable is inadequate it can cause a voltage drop and heat buildup, which can damage the electrical device and cord.

Moving the Generator
•
Disconnect any electrical devices from generator then switch the generator off.
•
Turn fuel valve to the “OFF” position, turn the battery switch to stop.
•
Use the handle to tilt generator until it balances on wheels. Roll machine to desired location.
•
If the generator must be carried, fold handle to the down position. Never lift or carry generator by
its handle.
Don’t Overload Generator
Make sure you can supply enough rated watts and surge watts for all electrical loads connected to the generator. Rated
watts refer to the power a generator must supply to keep a device running. Surge watts refer to the power a generator
must supply to start an electrical device. This power surge for starting a device usually lasts between 2-3 seconds but
this additional output must be considered when selecting the electrical devices, you plan to attach to the generator. To
prevent overloading the generator, take the following steps:
CAUTION!
This product is heavy and requires several people to lift. Lift and lower with your legs by
