12 Volt DC Receptacle — Use this receptacle with
battery charge cables to charge a 12 volt battery.
120-Volt AC, 20 AMP Duplex Receptacle — May be
used to supply electrical power for the operation of
120 volt AC, single phase, 60 Hz, AC electrical light¬
ing, appliance, tool and motor loads.
120-Volt AC, 20 AMP Locking Receptacle — May
be used to supply electrical power for the operation of
120 volts at 20 amps AC, single phase, 60 Hz, AC
electrical lighting, appliance, tool and motor loads.
120-Volt AC, 30 AMP Locking Receptacle — May
be used to supply electrical power for the operation of
120 volts at 30 amps AC, single phase, 60 Hz, AC
electrical lighting, appliance, tool and motor loads.
120/240-Volt AC, 30 AMP Locking Receptacle —
May be used to supply electrical power for the
operation of 120 and/or 240 volts at 30 amps AC,
single phase, 60 Hz, AC electrical lighting, appliance,
tool and motor loads.
240-Volt AC, 50 AMP Locking Receptacle — May
be used to supply electrical power for the operation of
240 volts at 41.7 amps AC, single phase, 60 Hz, AC
electrical loads.
Choke lever — Used when starting a cold engine.
Circuit Breakers (AC) — Each receptacle except the
50 amp receptacle is provided with a circuit breaker
to protect the generator against electrical overload.
Breakers are "push to reset" type.
Grounding Lug — Use this connection to properly
ground the generator. See "Grounding the Generator"
on Page 3.
Idle Control Switch — The idle control runs the
engine at normal (high) speeds when there is a load
present and runs the engine at idle (low) speeds
when a load is not present. This feature greatly
improves fuel economy, extends the life of the engine,
and reduces engine noise.
Ignition Switch — Must be set On (—) position to
start generator. To turn off generator, set switch to the
Stop (o) position.
Recoil starter — Used for starting the engine.
Spark Arrestor Muffler (not shown) — Exhaust
muffler lowers engine noise and is equipped with a
spark arrestor screen.
Air Cleaner — Uses a dry type filter element and
foam pre-cleaner to limit the amount of dirt and dust
that gets in the engine.
