SPECIFICATIONS INTRODUCTION These generators are a 3600 RPM two-bearing, belt-driven, brushless, TB2400/E rotating field design. The generators are self excited and inherently Watts 2,400 regulated to +/- (plus or minus) 5% - no load to full rated load. It can be Volts operated under any load within its rating without being damaged.
SAFETY 4. CLEANLINESS - IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Keep the generator and surrounding area clean. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS A. Remove all grease, ice, snow or materials that create slippery conditions around the unit. This manual contains important information that should be understood B.
UNIT CAPABILITIES STARTING ELECTRIC MOTORS GENERATOR CONNECTIONS Electric motors require much more current (Amps) to start than to run. Some motors, particularly low-cost split-phase motors, are very hard The TB2400 is designed for 120 Volt alternating current (AC) and has to start and require 5 to 7 times as much current to start them than to circuit breaker protected receptacles.
Keep the generator load within the generator and receptacle nameplate let WINCO take care of the freight claim. If you sign for the unit, the ratings. Overloading may cause damage to the generator and/or loads.
UNIT INSTALLATION The drive belt system must be of adequate size and must be tight enough to power the generator without slippage. Be careful not to over-tighten to the extent that it puts excessive strain on the bearings. Plans for installation should be prepared with proper attention to Doing so can cause bearing failure and other possible damage to the mechanical and electrical engineering detail to assure a satisfactory generator.
TROUBLESHOOTING SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSE(S) Low voltage 1. Generator operating below correct RPM 2. Generator overloaded 3. Defective stator 4. Defective rotor Output voltage too high Engine speed too high Generator overheating 1. Generator overloaded 2. Poor ventilation No output voltage 1.
