Circuit Protectors
The AC receptacles are protected by an AC
circuit protector. If the generator is overloaded
or an external short circuit occurs, the circuit
protector will trip. If this occurs, disconnect all
electrical loads to determine the cause of the
problem before using the generator again.
Reduce the load if the circuit protector is
tripped.
NOTE: Continuous tripping of the circuit pro-
tector may cause damage to generator or
equipment.
Push the button of the protector to reset the
circuit protector.
