Ac Pilot Light (Green); Ground (Earth) Terminal - K&S BASIC KSB 21i S Owner's Manual

When the overload indicator light comes on and power generation stops, proceed as follows:
1. Turn off any connected electric devices and stop the engine.
2. Reduce the total wattage of connected appliance into the rated output.
3. Check for blockages in the cooling air inlet and around the control unit. If any blockages are found, remove.
4. After checking, restart the engine.
IMPORTANT!

AC PILOT LIGHT (GREEN)

The AC pilot light comes on when the engine starts and produces power.
DC PROTECTOR
The DC protector turns to "OFF" automatically when electric device being connected to the generator is operating
and current above the rated flows. To use this equipment again, turn on DC protector by pressing its button to "ON".
IMPORTANT!
ECONOMY CONTROL SWITCH (ECON)
"ON"
When the ECON switch is turned to "ON", the economy control unit controls
the engine speed according to the connected load. As result you get less fuel
consumption and noise.
"OFF"
When the ECON switch is turned to "OFF", the engine runs at the rated speed
(4500r/min) regardless of whether is a load connected or not.
IMPORTANT!
FUEL TANK CAP
Remove the fuel tank cap by turning it counterclockwise.
FUEL TANK CAP AIR VENT KNOB
The fuel tank cap is provided with an air vent knob to stop fuel flow (for models KSB 21i S, KSB 31iE S). The air vent
knob must be turned to "ON". This will allow fuel to flow to the carburetor and the engine to run. When the engine is
not in use, turn the air vent knob to "OFF" to stop fuel flow.

GROUND (EARTH) TERMINAL

Grounding terminal connects the earth line for prevention of electric shock. When the electric device is grounded,
the generator must be earthed too.
Tip:
The overload indicator light may come on for a few seconds at first
when using electric devices that require a large starting current,
such as a compressor or a submergible pump. However, this is not
a malfunction.
Reduce the load of the connected electric device below the
specified rated output of the generator if the DC protector turns
off. If the DC protector turns off again, stop using the device
immediately and contact the point of sale and contact your
nearest K&S Basic TM Service Center.
Tip:
The ECON must be turned to "OFF" when using electric devices
that require a large starting current, such as a compressor of a
submergible pump.
