AC Applications

Before connecting an appliance or power cord to the generator:
Make sure that it is in good working order. A faulty appliance or
power cord can create a potential for electrical shock.
If an appliance begins to operate abnormally, becomes sluggish, or
stops suddenly, turn it off immediately. Disconnect the appliance,
and determine whether the problem is the appliance or the rated
load capacity of the generator has been exceeded.
Make sure that the combined electrical rating of the tools or
appliances do not exceed that of the generator. Never exceed the
maximum power rating of the generator. Power levels between
rated and maximum may be used for no more than 30 minutes.
Substantial overloading will open the AC circuit breaker. Exceeding
the time limit for maximum power operation or slightly overloading
the generator may not switch the AC circuit breaker OFF, but will
shorten the service life of the generator.
Limit operation requiring maximum power to 30 minutes.
Maximum power is:
