AUXILIARY POWER

The RANGER® 10,000 can provide up to 9,000 watts
of 120/240 volts AC, single phase 60Hz power for con-
tinuous use, and up to 10,000 watts of 120/240 volts
AC, single phase 60Hz power peak use.
The RANGER® 10,000 PLUS can provide up to 9,000
watts of 120/240 volts AC, single phase 60Hz power
for continuous use, and up to 10,500 watts of 120/240
volts AC, single phase 60Hz power peak use.
The front of the machine includes three receptacles for
connecting the AC power plugs; one 50 amp 120/240
volt NEMA 14-50R receptacle and two 20 amp 120 volt
NEMA 5-20R receptacles. Output voltage is within +/-
10% at all loads up to rated capacity.
CAUTION
Do not connect any plugs that connect to the
------------------------------------------------------------------------
power receptacles in parallel.
Start the engine and set the "IDLER" control switch to
the desired operating mode. Set the "CONTROL" to
10. Voltage is now correct at the receptacles for auxil-
iary power.
120/240 VOLT DUAL VOLTAGE RECEPTACLE
The 120/240 volt receptacle can supply up to 38 amps
of 240 volt power to a two wire circuit, up to 38 amps
of 120 volts power from each side of a three wire cir-
cuit (up to 76 amps total). Do not connect the 120 volt
circuits in parallel. Current sensing for the automatic
idle feature is only in one leg of the three wire circuit as
shown in the following column.
(Use the shortest length extension cord possible sized per the following table.)

120 V DUPLEX RECEPTACLES

The 120V auxiliary power receptacles should only be
used with three wire grounded type plugs or approved
double insulated tools with two wire plugs.
The current rating of any plug used with the system
must be at least equal to the current load through the
associated receptacle.

MOTOR STARTING

Most 1.5 hp AC single phase motors can be started if
there is no load on the motor or other load connected
to the machine, since the full load current rating of a
1.5 hp motor is approximately 20 amperes (10
amperes for 240 volt motors). The motor may be run at
full load when plugged into only one side of the duplex
receptacle. Larger motors through 2 hp can be run pro-
vided the receptacle rating as previously stated is not
exceeded. This may necessitate 240V operation only.
