Cord Sets and Receptacles
Use only high quality, well-insulated, grounded
extension cords with the generator's receptacles.
Inspect extension cords before each use.
Check the ratings of all extension cords before you use
them. Check the operator's manuals of devices for the
manufacturer's recommendations.
WARNING Damaged or overloaded electrical
cords could overheat, arc, and burn
resulting in death or serious injury.
• ONLY use cords rated for your loads.
• Follow all safeties on electrical cords.
• Inspect cord sets before each use.
120 Volt AC, 20 Amp, Duplex Receptacle
The duplex receptacle is protected against overload by
push-to-reset circuit breakers. If an overload occurs,
the circuit breaker will trip (push button pops out).
Wait a few minutes and push the button in to reset the
circuit breaker.
Use receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, single–phase,
60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to 1,700 watts
(1.7 kW) at 14.2 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.
• NEVER attempt to power a device requiring more
amperage than generator or receptacle can supply.
• DO NOT overload the generator. See Don't Overload
Generator.
12 Volt DC Receptacle
The maximum current available for the 12 Volt DC
receptacle is 60 Watts (5 Amps). A DC circuit breaker
protects this receptacle from overloads. If an overload
occurs, the circuit breaker will trip (push button pops
out). Wait a few minutes and push the button in to
reset the circuit breaker.

This receptacle along with the USB adapter allows
you to recharge any USB powered device with a USB
charging cable (not included).
NOTICE For charging ITE (Information Technology
Equipment) only.
NOTICE When using this receptacle, turn the
POWERSMART switch to the OFF (0) position.
Output Indicator
The green LED output indicator light comes on when
the generator is operating normally. It indicates that the
generator is producing power at the receptacles.
Overload Alarm
The red LED overload alarm light comes on and cuts
power to the receptacles if you overload the generator.
The green output indicator light will also go off. If the
generator was overloaded, you must turn off and
unplug all electrical loads, then push the generator
reset button to continue operating.
Low Oil Indicator
The low oil indicator system is designed to prevent
engine damage caused by not enough engine oil. If the
engine oil level drops below a preset level, the yellow
LED low oil indicator light comes on and an oil switch
will stop the engine. If the engine stops or the yellow
LED low oil indicator light comes on when you pull the
recoil handle, check the engine oil level.
Parallel Operation Port
The parallel operation port allows you to connect two
Briggs & Stratton inverter generators with a Briggs &
Stratton parallel operation kit (optional equipment).
When running in parallel, the total output of power is
shown in chart.
