120-Volt AC GFCI Receptacles
NOTICE
It is recommended that the GFCI receptacles be tested
when the generator is initially uncrated. The receptacles
should then be tested daily at startup.
There are two 120-volt, 20-amp GFCI (duplex NEMA
5-20R) receptacles provided on the output terminal panel.
These receptacles can be accessed in any voltage selector
switch position. Each receptacle is protected by a 20-amp
circuit breaker. These breakers are located directly above
the GFCI receptacles. Remember that the load output
(current) of both GFCI receptacles is dependent on the
load requirements of the U, V, and W output terminal lugs.
Press the Reset button (Figure 7) to reset the GFCI
receptacle after it has been tripped. Press the Test button
in the center of the receptacle to check the GFCI function.
Both receptacles should be tested at least once a month.
Reference the maintenance section in this manual for
further testing of the GFCI receptacle.

Each auxiliary receptacle is protected by a 50-amp circuit
breaker. These breakers are located directly above the
GFCI receptacles. Remember the load output (current) on
both receptacles is dependent on the load requirements of
the output terminal lugs.
Removing the Plastic Face Plate
(Hard Wire Hookup Panel)
The Output Terminal Lugs are protected by a plastic face
plate cover (Figure 9). Unscrew the securing bolts and lift
the plastic terminal cover to gain access to the terminal
enclosure.
After the load wires have been securely attached to the
terminal lugs, reinstall the plastic face plate.
