CONTROL & FEATURES

Voltage Selector Switch

Always disconnect or turn OFF all appliances or tools connected to the
generator before changing the voltage selector switch position.
The voltage selector switch switches generator output to produce
''120 V ONLY'' or ''120 V/240 V.'' If a 240 V appliance is connected to
the 4-prong receptacle, the switch must be in the ''120 V/240 V''
position. If only a 120 V appliance is being connected to any of the
120 V 3-prong receptacles, select the ''120 V ONLY'' position.
Select the voltage before starting the engine.
Switch Position
120/240 V: The 120 V and 120 V/240 V receptacles can be used
simultaneously.
120 V ONLY:
120 V/240 V receptacle in this position. The most power will be
available at the 30 A 120 V locking plug receptacle.

AC Circuit Protectors

The AC circuit protectors will automatically switch OFF if there is a
short circuit or a significant overload of the generator at each
receptacle. If an AC circuit protector switches OFF automatically, check
that the appliance is working properly and does not exceed the rated
load capacity of the circuit before resetting the AC circuit protector ON.
