AC OPERATION

Before connecting an appliance to the generator, make sure that it is
in good working order and that its electrical rating does not exceed
that of the generator.
Most motorized appliances require more than their electrical rating for
startup. When an electric motor is started, the overload alarm (red)
may come on. This is normal if the overload alarm (red) goes off
within 4 seconds. If the overload alarm (red) stays on, consult your
generator dealer.
1. Start the engine (see page 22) and make sure the output indicator
(green) comes on.
2. Plug in the appliance.

3. Turn on the appliance.
If the generator is overloaded (in excess of 3.0 kVA), if there is a short
circuit in a connected appliance, or if the inverter is overheated, the
overload alarm (red) will come ON. The overload alarm (red) will stay
ON, and after about five seconds, current to the connected
appliance(s) will shut off, and the output indicator (green) will go OFF .
Stop the engine and investigate the problem.
Determine if the cause is a short circuit in a connected appliance, an
overload, or an overheated inverter. Correct the problem and restart
the generator.
