Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains could result. • When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback. • NEVER start or stop engine with electrical devices plugged in and turned on. NOTE: If engine starts after 3 pulls but fails to run, or if unit shuts down during operation, make sure unit is on a level surface and check for proper oil level in crankcase. This unit may be equipped with a low oil protection device. See engine manual. WARNING Running engines produce heat.Temperature of muffler and nearby areas can reach or exceed 65°C (150°F). Severe burns can occur on contact. Combustible debris, such as leaves, grass, brush, ect. can catch fire. • DO NOT touch hot surfaces. • Allow equipment to cool before touching. • The generator must be at least 2m (5 ft) from structures having combustible walls and/or other combustible materials. • Keep at least 1m (3 ft) of clearance on all sides of generator for adequate cooling, maintenance and servicing. Connecting Electrical Loads • Let engine stabilize and warm up for a few minutes after starting. • Plug in and turn on the desired 230 Volt AC, single phase, 50 Hz electrical loads. • DO NOT connect 3–phase loads to the generator. • DO NOT connect 60 Hz loads to the generator. • DO NOT OVERLOAD THE GENERATOR. See “Don’t Overload Generator”. Stopping the Engine 1. Turn OFF and unplug all electrical loads from generator panel receptacles. NEVER start or stop engine with electrical devices plugged in and turned ON. 2. Let engine run at no-load for several minutes to stabilize internal temperatures of engine and generator. 3. Turn engine off according to instructions given in the engine owner’s manual. 4. Move petrol valve to “Off” position. 9 OPERATING THE GENERATOR RECEPTACLES CAUTION Receptacles may be marked with rating value greater than generator output capacity. • • NEVER attempt to power a device requiring more amperage than generator or receptacle can supply. DO NOT overload the generator. See “Don’t Overload Generator”. AC Voltmeter (Model 030213 Only) Use the voltmeter as a visual aid. It indicates AC voltage. If the meter indicates that AC output voltage is far below 230 Volts, engine speed or frequency may be too low. Circuit Breaker The model 030212 circuit breaker is rated at 10 Amps. The model 030213 circuit breaker is rated at 15 Amps. This circuit breaker, when tripped, will cut off power to all 230 Volt outlets.To reset the breaker,set the switch to the “On” position.When the switch is in the “Off” position the engine may be running but no power is supplied to the outlets. 230 Volt AC, 20 Amp, Locking Receptacle Use a compatible 3 prong plug with this receptacle (Figure 5). Connect a 3-wire cord set rated 250 volts at 20 AC Amps to the plug. Figure 5 — 230 Volt AC, 20 Amp Receptacle 3-Wire Cord Set 230V Ground For model 030212, this receptacle powers 230 Volt AC, 50 Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 2,500 Watts of power (2.5 kW) at 10 Amps for 230 Volts. For model 030213, these receptacles power 230 Volt AC, 50 Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 2,800 Watts of power (2.8 kW) at 12.1 Amps for 230 Volts total. COLD WEATHER OPERATION Under certain weather conditions (temperatures below 40°F [4°C] combined with high humidity), your generator may experience icing of the carburetor and/or the crankcase breather system.To reduce this problem,you need to perform the following: 1. Make sure generator has clean, fresh petrol. 2. Open petrol valve (turn valve to open position). 3. Use SAE 5W-30 oil (synthetic preferred, see engine manual). 4. Check oil level daily or after every eight (8) hours of operation. 5. Maintain generator following “Maintenance Schedule” in engine manual. 6. Shelter unit from elements. 10 OPERATING THE GENERATOR DON'T OVERLOAD GENERATOR Capacity You must make sure your generator can supply enough rated (running) and surge (starting) watts for the items you will power at the same time. Follow these simple steps: 1. Select the items you will power at the same time. 2. Total the rated (running) watts of these items. See Figure 6. 3. Estimate how many surge (starting) watts you will need. Surge wattage is the short burst of power needed to start electric motor-driven tools or appliances.Total surge watts is estimated by adding only the one item with the highest additional surge watts to the total rated watts from step 2. For Example: Tool or Appliance Rated (Running) Watts Additional Surge (Starting) Watts Refrigerator 800 1600 Deep Freezer 500 500 Television 500 - Light (75 Watts) 75 - 1875 Total Running Watts 1600 Highest Surge Watts Total Rated (Running) Watts = 1875 Highest Additional Surge Watts = 1600 Total Generator Output Required = 3475 Power Management It is important to take care when adding electrical loads to your generator.The correct and safe way to manage generator power is to sequentially add loads as follows: 1. With nothing connected to the generator, ...
