Overload indicator light (Red)
The overload indicator light comes on
when an overload of a connected
electrical device is detected, the
inverter control unit overheats, or the
AC output voltage rises. Then, the AC
protector will trip, stopping power
generation in order to protect the
generator and any connected electric
devices. The AC pilot light (Green)
will go off and the overload indicator
light (Red) will stay on, but the engine
will not stop running.
When the overload indicator light
comes on and power generation
stops, proceed as follows:
1. Turn off any connected electric
devices and stop the engine.
2. Reduce the total wattage of
connected electric devices within the
rated output.
3. Check for blockages in the cooling
air Inlet and around the control unit. If
any blockages are found remove.
4. After checking, restart the engine.
①
TIP：The overload indicator light may
come on for a few seconds at first
when using electric devices that
require a large starting current,
such as a compressor or a
submergible pump. However, this
is not a malfunction.
The AC pilot light comes on when the
engine starts and produces power.

running is 3.0Kva and the rated current
is 25.0A/120V;13.0A/230V.)
The handing, operation procedure and
the notes on usage are described in the

When the ESC switch is turned to
“ON”, the economy control unit
controls the engine speed according to
the connected load. The results are
better fuel consumption and less
noise.
“OFF”
When the ESC switch is turned to
“OFF”, the engine runs at the rated

a load connected or not.
The ESC must be turned to“OFF”
when using electric devices that
require a large starting current, such
as acompressor of a submergible
pump.
Tip:
Fuel tank cap
1. Remove the fuel tank cap by turning it
counterclockwise.
2. The fuel tank cap is provided with an
air vent knob to stop fuel flow. The
air vent knob must be turned to “ON”.
This will allow fuel to flow to the
carburetor and the engine to run.
When the engine is not in use, turn the
air vent knob to “OFF” to stop fuel flow.

TIP: The ESC must be turned to “OFF” before increasing engine speed to
rated rpm.
Most motorized appliances require more than their electrical rating
for startup. When an electrical motor is started, the overload
indicator (red) may come on. This is normal if the overload indicator
(red) goes off within 4 seconds. If the overload indicator (red) stays
on, consult your generator dealer.
If the generator is connected to multiple loads or electricity
consumers, please remember to first connect the one with the
highest starting current. And last connect the one with the lowest
starting current.
If the generator is overload, or if there is a short circuit in a
connected appliance, the overload indicator (red) will go ON. The
overload indicator (red) will stay ON, and after about 4 seconds,
current to the connected appliance(s) will shut off, and the output
indicator (green) will go OFF. Stop both engines 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

Operation
NOTICE Be sure the ESC is turned off while charging the battery.
Be sure to connect the red battery charger lead to the
positive (+) battery terminal, and connect the black lead
to the negative (-) battery terminal. Do not reverse these
positions.
Connect the battery charger leads to the battery terminals
securely so that they are not disconnected due to engine
vibration or other disturbances.
Charge the battery in the correct procedure by following
instructions in the owner's manual for the battery.
The DC protector turns off automatically if current above
the rated flows during battery haring. To restart charging
the battery, turn he DC protector on by pressing its button
to “ON”. If the DC protector turns off again, top charging
the battery immediately and consult a franchised dealer.
TIP:
Follow instructions in the owner are manual for the battery to
determine the end of battery charging.
Measure the specific gravity of electrolyte to determine if the battery
is fully charged. At full charge, the electrolyte specific gravity is
between 1.26 and 1.28.
!WARNING Never smoke or make and break connections at the
battery while charging. Sparks may ignite the battery
gas.
Battery electrolyte is poisonous and dangerous, causing
severe burns, etc. contains sulfuric (sulphuric) acid.
Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing.
Antidote:
External- Flush with water.
INTERNAL- Drink large quantities of water or milk. Follow with milk of
magnesia, beaten egg or vegetable oil.
Call physician immediately.
BATTERY CHARGING
TIP:
The generator DC rated voltage is 12V.
Start the engine first, and then connect the generator to the battery
for charging.
Before starting to charge the battery, make sure that the DC
protector is turned on.
1.Start the engine.
2.Connect the red battery charger lead to the positive (+) battery
terminal.
3.Connect the black battery charger lead to the negative (-) battery
terminal.
4.Turn the ESC “OFF” to start battery charging.
It is advisable to check the specific gravity of the electrolyte at least
once every hour to prevent overcharging the battery.

If the generator is to supply medical equipment, advice
should first be obtained from the manufacturer, a medical
professional or hospital.
Some electrical appliances or general-purpose electric
motors have high starting currents, and cannot therefore
be used, even if they lie within the supply ranges given in
the above table. Consult the equipment manufacturer for
further advice.

TIP:
Make sure that it is in good working order. A faulty appliance or
power cord can create a potential for electrical shock.
If an appliance begins to operate abnormally, becomes sluggish, or
stops suddenly, turn if off immediately. Disconnect the appliance and
determine whether the problem is the appliance, and determine
whether the problem is the appliance or the rated load capacity of the
generator has been exceeded.
Make sure that the combined electrical rating of the tools or appliance
do not exceed that of the generator. Never exceed the maximum may
be used for no more than 30 minutes.
Never connect different generator models.
