Connection Plugs

120 VAC, Duplex Receptacle
The 120 Volt outlet is overload protected by
the inverter module electronic control. See
Figure 2-4. Each receptacle will power 120
Volt AC, single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads
requiring up to 1600 watts (1.6 kW).

PowerDial

The PowerDial controls the ON/OFF func-
tions, choke and fuel valve operation. See
ure 2-5.
• The START position (1) is used to start the
engine. In this position, the fuel is on and
the choke is fully on (closed).
• The RUN position (2) for normal operation
and to gradually reduce the use of the
choke.
• The STOP position (3) stops the engine
and shuts off fuel flow.

PowerBar

See Figure 2-6. The PowerBar (8) indicates
the amount of power being used from the gen-
erator. Each section is approximately 12.5%.

Economy Switch

The economy switch has 3 modes of opera-
tion:
• Economy: The quietest mode and best
when running appliances or equipment that
are resistive loads (non-motor starting),
(example: TV, video game, light, radio).
• Standard: Best when running a both induc-
tive (motor-starting loads) and resistive
(non-motor starting loads), especially when
these loads are turning on and off (exam-
ple: RV, air conditioner, hairdryer).
• Turbo: Best when running inductive loads
(appliances or equipment with motor-start-
ing) that are continually running (examples:
drill, blender, saw).

Generator Status Lights

See Figure
• Overheat LED (red): Illuminates when unit
000424
temperatures exceed normal operating
conditions (1). The ready LED will turn off
and the inverter will cut power to the out-
lets. Check for airflow obstructions at front
and rear panels. The engine will remain
running to cool the unit with the overheat
LED illuminated. Once the unit has reached
Fig-
normal operating temperatures, the over-
heat LED will turn off. The reset button
must then be pressed for 1 second and
released to clear the fault and restore out-
put power.
• Low Oil Level LED (orange): Illuminates
when oil level is below safe operating level.
Engine shuts down (2).
• Ready LED (green): Indicates output from
generator (3) (unless there is a low oil or
overload condition).
• Overload LED (red): Indicates system
overload (4). During motor starting it is nor-
mal for the overload LED to illuminate for a
few seconds. If LED stays illuminated and
the ready LED turns off, the engine will con-
3
tinue to run without output power. Remove
all applied loads and determine if attached
devices
power. Review for any faulty or shorted
connections. Press and hold the reset but-
ton for 3 seconds and release. The red
000663
overload LED should turnoff. Loads can be
re-applied once the green ready LED illumi-
nates. If the red LED returns, contact an
IASD.
