Major Generator Features - Powermate PM0645500 Operator's Manual

A. Control Panel
B. 120 V, 20 Ampere Duplex Receptacle
20 amps of current may be drawn from each half of the
receptacle. However, total power drawn must be kept within
nameplate ratings. These receptacles may be used along with the
twistlock receptacle provided the generator is not overloaded.
C. 120 Volt GFCI Receptacle
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter duplex receptacle is rated so
that a total of 20 amps may be drawn regardless of whether both
halves or just one receptacle is used. This receptacle may be used
along with other receptacles provided the generator is not overloaded
and total power drawn is kept within nameplate ratings.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(Conforms to U.L 943, Class A and NEC requirements)
This device protects you against hazardous electrical shock that may
be caused if your body becomes a path through which electricity
travels to reach ground. This could happen when you touch an
appliance or cord that is " live " through faulty mechanism, damp or
worn insulation, etc.
D. 120/240 V, 30 Ampere Twistlock Receptacle
A maximum of 30 amps may be drawn from the 120/240 volt
receptacle, provided it is the only receptacle used. However, current
must be limited to the nameplate rating. If the 120/240 volt
receptacle is used along with the 120 volt receptacle, the total load
drawn must not exceed the nameplate ratings.
E. Circuit Breakers
The receptacles are protected by an AC circuit breaker. If the
generator is overloaded or an external short circuit occurs, the circuit
breaker will trip. If this occurs, disconnect all electrical loads and try
to determine the cause of the problem before attempting to use the
generator again. If overloading causes the circuit breaker to trip,
reduce the load. NOTE: Continuous tripping of the circuit
breaker may cause damage to generator or equipment. The
circuit breaker may be reset by pushing the button of the breaker.
F. Panel Light
The panel light comes on automatically when the engine is
started. The light goes off automatically when the engine is shut off.
G. DIGITECH™ Digital Information Center
The DIGITECH™ Digital Information Center is a patented
feature available only on select Coleman® Powermate® Brand
generators.
At a glance, the user can instantly see how much of the
generator's output capacity is being used and how much power
remains available. The display also indicates the time since last user
reset and the total accumulated runtime of the generator.
