OPERATION
10
Stopping the Engine
1. Turn off and unplug all electrical loads from generator
panel receptacles. NEVER start or stop engine with
electrical devices plugged in and turned on.
2. Let engine run at no–load for 30 seconds to stabilize
internal temperatures of engine and alternator.
3. Turn engine off according to instructions given in
engine operator’s manual.
4. Move fuel valve to “Off” position.
RECEPTACLES
The control panel is equipped with a flip-up panel to keep
the outlets clean and protected. A double pole rocker
switch circuit breaker is provided to protect all the
receptacles and generator against electrical overload.
120 Volt AC, 20 Amp, Duplex
Receptacle
The duplex receptacle (Figure 7) is protected against
overload by a double pole rocker switch circuit breaker.
Use each receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, single–phase,
60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to 2,400 watts (2.4 kW)
at 20 Amps of current. Use cord sets that are rated for
125 Volt AC loads at 20 Amps (or greater).
120/240 Volt AC, 30 Amp, Locking
Receptacle
Use a NEMA L14–30 plug with this receptacle. Connect a
4–wire cord set rated for 250 Volt AC loads at 30 Amps
(or greater) (Figure 8).You can use the same 4–wire cord if
you plan to run a 120 Volt load.
This receptacle powers 120/240 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single
phase loads requiring up to 2,750 watts of power at
22.9 Amps for 120 Volts; 5,500 watts of power (5.5 kW) at
22.9 Amps for 240 Volts.The outlet is protected by a
double pole rocker switch circuit breaker.

• NEVER attempt to power a device requiring more amperage
than generator or receptacle can supply.
• DO NOT overload the generator. See “Don’t Overload
Generator”.
Receptacles may be marked with rating value greater
than generator output capacity.
