16. Full power switch – The generator is provided with a
full power switch. Figure 6 and Figure 7 show simplified
wiring diagrams of the dual voltage system.
When the full power switch is in the 120 volt (up)
position, you can access the full rated power of the
generator at 120 volts from the GFCI duplex receptacle
and the120V twist-lock receptacle, or a combination
of both receptacles as long as the total load does not
exceed the generating set capacity.

When the switch is in the 240 volt (down) position, you can
access half of the rated power of the generating set at 120
volts from the GFCI duplex receptacle and up to half of the
rated power of the set at 120 volts from 120V twist-lock
receptacle; or full rated power of the set at 240 volts from
the 240V twist-lock receptacle.
