Connection Plugs

120 VAC, 20 Amp, Duplex Receptacle
This is a 120 Volt outlet protected against overload by a
20 Amp push-to-reset circuit breaker. Use each socket to
power 120 Volt AC, single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads
requiring up to a combined 2400 watts (2.4 kW) or 20
Amps of current. Use only high quality, well-insulated, 3-
wire grounded cord sets rated for 125 Volts at 20 Amps
(or greater).
120 VAC, 30 Amp Receptacle
Use a NEMA L5-30 plug with this receptacle (rotate to
lock/unlock). Connect a suitable 4-wire grounded cord
set to the plug and to the desired load. The cord set
should be rated for 250 Volts AC at 30 Amps (or greater).
Use this receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single
phase loads requiring up to 3600 watts (3.6 kW) of power
at 30 Amps. The outlet is protected by a 30 Amp single-
pole circuit breaker.

CO PROTECT

Carbon Monoxide (CO) Detection and Shut-off
System (if equipped)
The CO PROTECT module monitors for the accumula-
tion of poisonous CO gas found in engine exhaust when
the generator is running. If CO PROTECT detects
increasing levels of CO gas, it automatically shuts off the
engine. CO PROTECT only monitors when the engine is
running. Generators are intended to be used outdoors,
far from occupied buildings and the exhaust pointed
away from personnel and buildings. However, if misused
and operated in a location that results in the accumula-
tion of CO, like a house or even a garage with partially
opened door, CO PROTECT shuts off the engine, notifies
the user of what has happened and directs the user to
read the instruction action label for steps to take. CO
PROTECT is not a substitute for an indoor carbon mon-
oxide alarm.
As the user approaches the generator to investigate a
shut-off, a blinking RED light in the CO PROTECT badge
on the side of the generator provides notification that the
generator was shut off due to an accumulating CO haz-
ard. The RED light will blink for at least five minutes after
a CO shut-off. Move the generator to an open, outdoor
area and point the exhaust away from people and occu-
000424
pied buildings. Once relocated to a safe area, the gener-
ator can be restarted and the proper electrical
connections made to supply electrical power. The RED
light will stop blinking automatically upon engine re-start.
Introduce fresh air and ventilate the location where the
generator had shut down.
If a CO PROTECT system fault has occurred and no lon-
ger provides protection, the portable generator is shut off
automatically and the YELLOW light will blink for at least
five minutes in the CO PROTECT badge to notify the
user of the fault. The CO PROTECT module can only be
diagnosed and repaired by a trained technician at the
dealer. The generator can be re-started, but may con-
tinue to shut-off.
