1. GFCI Duplex Receptacles – NEMA 5-20R, GFCI
receptacle will provide 120V@ 20 amps.
2. Main Breaker – This 2-pole, 20 amp circuit breaker
protects the generator from short circuiting or
overloading. When starting the generator always have
the circuit breaker placed in the "OFF" position.
3. Hour Meter – Indicates the number hours the generator
has been in use.
4. AC-Voltmeter – This voltmeter indicates (with a
mark) the rated 60 Hz (single-phase) output voltage.
In addition, the voltmeter can also be used as a
diagnostic tool. If the voltmeter indicator (needle) is
below the rated voltage, engine problems may exist
(low/high RPM's). To prevent damage to the generator
or power tools turn the generator OFF and consult your
authorized Multiquip service dealer.
5. Idle Control Switch – The generator is provided with
an automatic idle control device for noise suppression
and reduced fuel consumption.
The automatic idle control automatically engages under
a no-load condition. With the automatic idle control
switched "ON", the engine revolutions will automatically
drop to about 2600 rpm (low-speed operation) within
3 seconds after the load stops. When the operation is
resumed, the engine speed is automatically increased
to about 3600 rpm (high-speed operation) as soon as
the load is connected.
