You will need this manual for the safety warnings and precautions, operating, inspection,
maintenance and cleaning procedures, parts list and assembly diagram. Keep your
invoice with this manual. Write the invoice number on the inside of the front cover. Keep
this manual and invoice in a safe and dry place for future reference.

The 120v outlets are protected with 25 amp breakers. You
must provide adequate protection for the size of cord and equipment you are
using by means of a power strip equipped with a circuit breaker.

240 VOLT

Powering 120/240Vott AC Toots And Equipment:
Prior to powering tools and equipment, make sure the Generator's rated voltage, and
amperage capacity (120V 47AMP, 240V 23AMP) is adequate to supply all electrical
loads that the unit will power. If powering exceeds the Generator's capacity, it may be
necessary to group one or more of the tools and/or equipment for connection to a
separate generator
Once the generator is running select the desired voltage with the voltage selector
switch located below the voltmeter, then simply connect the power cords to the
correct outlet and turn on applicable breaker(s). (See Figure G.)
3. NOTE: The Generator features AC Non Fuse circuit breakers (5) to protect the AC
circuit in case of an overload occur the Breaker will "trip" to its "OFF" position. In this
case, refer to Step #1 above in this section. Then, reset the circuitry system by
turning the circuit Breaker to its "ON" position. Restart the Generator and continue
powering the remaining tools and equipment. (See Figure D.)
When finished using the generator, shut the circuit breakers off and then turn the
engine power switch to its "OFF" position. Turn the Fuel valve to its "OFF" position.
Then, disconnect all electrical powered tools and equipment from the Generator's
120 and 240 volt AC Outlets (6). (See Figures E, F, and G.)
5. After the Engine and Generator have completely cooled, store the Generator in a
safe, clean, dry location (if not already installed in one).
Powering 12 Volt DC Tools And Equipment:
1. Prior to powering a tool or equipment, make sure the Generator's rated voltage,
and amperage capacity (12VDC / 8AMPs) is adequate to supply all electrical
loads that the unit will power, if powering exceeds the Generator's capacity, it
may be necessary to group one or more of the tools and/or equipment for con
nection to a separate generator.
2. Connect the Power Cord of a 12 VDC powered tool or equipment to the DC
Terminals (7). NOTE: Make sure to connect the positive (+) lead of the Power
Cord to the positive (+) Terminal on the Generator, and connect the negative (-)
lead of the Power Cord to the negative (-) Terminal on the Generator
(See Figure H, next page.)

3. If using only a 12 volt DC tool or equipment turn both the 120v and 240v breakers
to their "OFF" position.(See Figure D.)
4. Start and run the Engine as previously discussed in this manual.
5. When finished using the Generator, turn the Engine Power Switch (2) to its
"OFF" position. Turn the Fuel Valve (40) to its "OFF" position. Then, disconnect
the electrical powered tools' power cord from the Generator's DC Terminals (7).
(See Figure H.)
6. After the Engine and Generator have completely cooled, store the Generator in a
safe, clean, dry location (if not already installed in one).
7. NOTE: The Generator features a 8 AMP DC circuit breaker (9) to protect the DC
circuit in case of an overload. (See Figure H.)
