Cord Sets and ReceptacJes
Use only high quality, weIHnsulated, grounded extension
cords with the generator's 120 Volt duplex receptacle.
inspect extension cords before each use.
Checkthe ratings of all extension cords before you use
them. Extension cord sets used should be rated for 125 Volt
AC loads at 15 Amps or greater for most electrical devices.
Some devices, however, may not require this type of
extension cord. Checkthe operator's manuals of those
devices for the manufacturer's recommendations.
Keep extension cords as short as possible to minimize
voltage drop.
WARNING Overloadedelectrical cords can overheat,
arc, and burn resulting in death, bodily injury,
and/or property damage.
. ONLYusecordsratedfor your loads.

120 Veit AC, 15 Amp, Duplex Receptacle
The duplex receptacleis protected against overload by a
_ush-to-reset circuit breaker.
Use each receptacleto operate 120 Volt AC, single-phase,
60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to 1,800 watts (1,8 kW) at
15 Amps of current. Use cord sets that are rated for 125 Volt
AC loads at 15 Amps (or greater).
NOTICE Receptacles may be marked with rating value
greater than generator output capacity.
, NEVERattempt to power a device requiring more amperage than
generator or receptacle can supply.
* DO NOToverload the generator. SeeDon't OverloadGenerator,
12 Volt DC Accessory Jack
These receptaclesallows you to recharge a 12 Volt
automotive or utility style storage battery with the battery
charge cable provided. Camping-style air pumps, lanterns,
fans, or other 12 Volt devices having a cigarette lighter-type
plug may also be powered by these outlets.
These receptacles can not recharge6 Volt batteries and can
not be used to crank an engine having a discharged battery.
