Figure 13 - Grounding the Generator
Generator Ground Lug
Proper grounding of the generator will help prevent electrical shock
in the event of a ground fault condition in the generator or in connected
electrical devices. Proper grounding also helps dissipate static electricity,
which often builds up in ungrounded devices.

2.4.2 CONNECTING ELECTRICAL LOADS

DO NOT connect 240 Volt loads to 120 Volt receptacles. DO NOT connect
3-phase loads to the generator. DO NOT connect 50 Hz loads to the
generator.
Let engine stabilize and warm up for a few minutes after starting.
Plug in and turn on the desired 120 or 240 Volt AC, single phase, 60
Hz electrical loads.
Add up the rated watts (or amps) of all loads to be connected at
one time. This total should not be greater than (a) the rated wattage/
amperage capacity of the generator or (b) circuit breaker rating of the
receptacle supplying the power. See "Don't Overload the Generator"
below.
2.5
DON'T OVERLOAD THE
GENERATOR
Overloading a generator in excess of its rated wattage capacity can result
in damage to the generator and to connected electrical devices. Observe
the following to prevent overloading the unit:
Add up the total wattage of all electrical devices to be connected at one
time. This total should NOT be greater than the generator's wattage
capacity.
The rated wattage of lights can be taken from light bulbs. The rated
wattage of tools, appliances and motors can usually be found on a
data label or decal affixed to the device.
If the appliance, tool or motor does not give wattage, multiply volts
times ampere rating to determine watts (volts x amps = watts).
Some electric motors, such as induction types, require about three
times more watts of power for starting than for running. This surge of
power lasts only a few seconds when starting such motors. Make sure
to allow for high starting wattage when selecting electrical devices to
connect to the generator:
Section 2 – Operation
1.
Figure the watts needed to start the largest motor.
2.
Add to that figure the running watts of all other connected loads.
The Wattage Reference Guide is provided to assist in determining how
many items the generator can operate at one time.
All figures are approximate. See data label on appliance for wattage
requirements.
