A. Control Panel
NOTE: Total power drawn from all receptacles must not exceed
the nameplate ratings.
B. 120 V, 20 Ampere Receptacle
20 amps of current may be drawn from the receptacle,
provided it is not limited by the circuit protector size. Total
power drawn must be kept within nameplate ratings.
C. 120/240 V, 30 Ampere Twistlock Receptacle
Maximum full load current may be drawn from the
120/240 volt receptacle, provided it is the only receptacle
used. Total 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.
D. Receptacle Covers
E. Circuit Protectors
The receptacles are protected by an AC circuit protector. If the
generator is overloaded or an external short circuit occurs, the circuit
protector 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 protector to trip,
reduce the load. NOTE: Continuous tripping of the circuit
protector may cause damage to generator or equipment. The
circuit protector may be reset by pushing the button of the protector.

minutes each time the generator is ran. The run timer resets
to 00:00 when the generator is shut off. Built into this run
timer is a maintenance reminder. When the new generator is
ran for 25 hours, the meter will display P25. This is to
remind you to change the oil after the initial 25 hours of run
time.
• When the Run/Maintenance Timer displays P50, it is
reminding you to clean the air filter and change the oil.
• When the Run/Maintenance Timer displays P100, it is
