2.6.3.1 Generator Conversion to
120/240 Volt Dual Voltage
Conversion of this generator from "120 volts only,
dual circuits" to "120/240 volt - dual circuits" (or
vice-versa) requires rerouting wires within the unit
enclosure. It is recommended that this conversion
be performed by an Authorized Service Dealer.
Figure 2.16 shows the stator power winding con-
nections for 120/240 volt dual voltage. The stator
power windings are connected in series. Lead 11/11A
connects to T1 (Red), lead 44/44A connects to T3
(Black), while leads 22 and 33 are grounded and con-
nect to T2 NEUTRAL (White). A "tie bar" connects the
two switch handles on line breaker CB1.
To convert from "120 volt dual circuits" to "120/240
volt dual voltage", disconnect battery power from the
generator and reverse stator lead wires 33 and 44 as
follows:
It is necessary to feed stator lead wires 33 and 44
through grommets on the electrical enclosure and
engine control box in order to perform the rerout-
ing outlined below. The front and top unit enclo-
sure panels, as well as the user control panel, must
be removed to perform this. After re-routing, wires
should be properly tied down to prevent chafing or
contact with moving internal components
1. Remove stator lead wire 44, as shown in Figure
2.15, from the ground stud adjacent to the four-
position terminal block. Reroute stator lead 33
from the line side terminal of CB1A (renamed as
CB1 in Figure 2.16) to the ground stud location
previously occupied by stator lead wire 44.
2. Move smaller gauge (#18 AWG) wire labeled #11
(not shown), from the top of CB1 to the top of
CB1A. Renumber this wire #44.
3. Reroute stator lead wire 44, removed in step 1,
to the line side terminal on CB1.

4. Renumber ground wire "44", located between
the four-position terminal block and ground in
Figure 2.15, as ground wire "33", as shown in
Figure 2.16.
5. Renumber wire "33A" from Figure 2.15 as wire
"44A" in Figure 2.16.
6. Remove the 12 AWG jumper wire from between
line breakers CB1 and CB1A, as shown in Figure
2.15.
7. Install a "tie bar" between the two-line breaker
switch handles.
Do NOT connect electrical loads in excess of any
circuit breaker rating, or problems will develop
with circuit breaker tripping, which causes a loss
of AC output. Also, do NOT exceed the genera-
tor's rated wattage capacity. Add the watts or
amps of all lighting, appliance, tool, and motor
loads the generator will operate at one time.
This total should be less than the unit's rated
wattage/amperage capacity.
