4. GENERATOR USE
CONNECTIONS TO A BUILDING ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Connections for standby power to a building electrical system must be made by a qualified electrician, The
connection must isolate the generator power from utility power, and must comply with all applicable laws
and electrical codes.
WARNING! Improper connections to a building electrical system can allow electrical current
from the generator to feedback into the utility lines. Such feedback may electrocute utility company
workers or others who contact the lines during a power outage, and the generator may explode, burn, or
cause fires when utility power is restored. Consult the utility company or a qualified electrician.
GROUND SYSTEM
These portable generators have a system ground that connects generator frame components to the
ground terminals in the AC output receptacles. The system ground is not connected to the AC neutral
wire. If the generator is tested by a receptacle tester, It will not show the same ground circuit condition as
for a home receptacle.
AC APPLICATIONS
Before connecting an appliance or power cord to the generator:
Make sure that it is in good working order. Faulty appliances or power cords can create a potential for
electrical shock.
If an appliance begins to operate abnormally, becomes sluggish or stops suddenly, turn it off immediately.
Disconnect the appliance, and determine whether the problem is the appliance, or if the rated load
capacity of the generator has been exceeded.
Make sure that the electrical rating of the tool or appliance dose not exceed that of the generator, never
exceed the maximum power rating of the generator. Power levels between rated and maximum may be
used for no more than 30 minutes.
NOTICE! Substantial overloading will switch off the AC circuit protector. Exceeding the time
limit for maximum power operation OFF, but will shorten the service life of the generator.
Limit operation requiring maximum power to 30 minutes. Maximum power is: 3,200VA.
For continuous operation, do not exceed the rated power. Rated power is: 3,000VA.

In either case, the total power requirements (VA)of all appliances connected must be considered.
Appliance and power tool manufacturers usually list rating information near the model number or serial
number.
AC OPERATION
1. Start the engines and make sure the output indicator lights(green) Comes on. 2.
Plug in the appliance require more than their rated wattage for startup
If the generator is overloaded(in excess of 3,200 VA),or if there is a short circuit in a connected appliance,
the overload indicator light(red) will go ON, The overload indicator light(red)will stay ON, and after about
four seconds, current to the connected appliance(s) will shut off, and the output indicator light(green)will
go OFF. Stop the engine and investigate the problem.
Determine if the cause is a short circuit in a connected appliance or an overload. Correct the problem and
restart the generator.
Before connecting an appliance to the generator, make sure that it is in good order and that its electrical
rating does not exceed that of the generator. Then start the generator and connect the appliance power
cord.
NOTICE! When an electric motor is started, the overload indicator light(red) may come on,
This is normal if the overload indicator light(red)goes off after about four seconds. If the overload indicator
light(red) stays on, consult your generator dealer.
