Electrical Power Outlet
Connect a source of 125 volt AC power to the power-input
connector on the left side of the wiring box (refer to Fig-
ure 7.23).

Some machines may have an electrical cable already
plugged into the outlet on the lower control panel. In that
case, power is supplied by an optional AC generator. An
external power source is not required.
With the engine running, place the machine/generator
control (refer to Figure 7.24) in the generator position to
provide electrical power to the two electrical outlets at
the platform and to the outlet on the end of the generator
housing.
Figure 7.24 – Upper Control Panel Front
Plug an electrical tool into the receptacle at the platform
and at the generator and try to operate the tool to verify
proper operation of the outlet.
The outlet is equipped with a ground fault circuit inter-
rupter (GFCI). Use the following procedure to test the
GFCI.
1. Push the test button (refer to Figure 7.25).
