OPERATION
CIRCUIT BREAKERS
See Figure 13.
The 20 amp circuit breaker protects devices and
equipment connected to the 120V receptacle from
electrical overload. The main circuit breaker protects
the generator from overloads during parallel operation.
If a circuit breaker activates, turn off the connected
device, remove it from the port or outlet, and press the
circuit breaker to reset.
USB PORTS
See Figure 13.
Use the USB ports and USB cables (not included)
to charge USB-compatible devices such as phones,
tablets, and speakers (up to 2.1 Amps).
NOTE: The USB ports are designed for charging
only and do not have data transfer or communication
capabilities.
PARALLEL OPERATION
See Figure 13.
WARNING
Never connect or disconnect the parallel cord leads
when a generator is running.
CAUTION
left and right cables is very important when the
generators are used with a transfer switch to supply
power to a building. To avoid serious personal
injury or damage to electrical devices, including the
generators, do not try to power an electrical system
in a building without using an approved transfer
switch.
NOTICE
is not compatible can cause a low voltage output
that can damage tools and appliances powered by
the generator.
Parallel operation gives you the ability to link to a
compatible Westinghouse Inverter Generator for
combined running and peak power output.
A parallel cord or receptacle-mounted parallel cable is
needed for parallel operation. Compatible cords are
