Page 14: Ac Indicator Light(Green)
3. Check whether there is a foreign body blocking the air inlet and whether there is any abnormality in the relevant control parts. If there is any problem, immediately eliminate it. 4. After checking, press the voltage recovery button for 1-3 seconds to restore the voltage output. NOTICE：When using electrical equipment with high startup current (such as compressors, submersible pumps, etc.), the overload indicator may light up for a few seconds at the beginning. -
Page 15: Dc Protection
6. When the green light is off and the red light flashes 5 times in 3 seconds: This indicates that the bus voltage is too high and the generator has no output. 7. The green light is off and the red light flashes 6 times in 3 seconds: This indicates overload protection and no output. -
Page 16: Energy Conservation Switch
3.6 Energy Conservation switch ① "ON", when the energy conservation switch is in the "ON" position, the energy saving device controls the engine speed according to the connected load, which can achieve better fuel consumption and lower noise. ② "OFF", when the energy conservation switch is in the "OFF" position, the engine is running at the rated speed (3600r/min) regardless of whether the load is connected. -
Page 17: Fuel Tank Cap
3.8 Fuel tank cap Rotate counter clockwise to remove the tank cap. 3.9 Fuel tank cap vent lever There is a vent lever on the top of the fuel tank to prevent the flow of fuel. When using the generator, the vent lever must be in the "ON" position allowing fuel to flow into the carburetor to keep the engine running. -
Page 18: Parallel Operation
3.11 Parallel operation (optional feature) The parallel connector is used to connect two 2300i-2 of the same voltage and frequency running parallel to one another. Parallel operation requires two 2300i-2 devices and special cables (Rated output power of parallel operation is 3.4KVA, rated current of 120V generator is 28.0A and rated current of 230V generator is 14.5A) Operating procedures and related considerations are detailed in the parallel output system. -
Page 19: Pre-Use Inspection

Page 28: Ac Parallel Operation
5.5 AC parallel operation (optional feature) Before connecting a device to any generator, ensure that it is in good working condition and that its electrical rating does not exceed the total number of parallel generators. Most motors require more than their working current when started. - Page 29 Correct the problem and restart the generator. The two types of 2300i-2 generators (same voltage and frequency) can be connected to each other, using a parallel cable suite to increase the available power supply. Connect the equipment or power cord to the generator first as described in the accessories to the parallel running cable kit accessories.
-
Page 30: Scope Of Application
The limit time when the maximum power can be operated: 30 minutes Maximum power for parallel operation: 3.6Kw Rated power for parallel operation: 3.4Kw, continuous operation, not exceeding rated power. The requirement for total power of all connected equipment must be considered. The list of manufacturers of electrical appliances and power tools usually lists power ratings for similar models or serial numbers. - Page 31 For example: Generator rated output 1600W Frequently Power factor ≤1600W ≤1280W When the total power exceeds the rated power, the overload indicator light will illuminate (see P8). NOTICE: Do not overload; the total power of the electrical equipment must not exceed the output power of the generator, or it will cause damage to the generator.
