gENErATOr OUTPUTS

generator output voltageS

A wide range of voltages are available to supply voltage for

many different applications. Voltages are selected by using

the

voltage selector switch (Figure 13). To obtain some of

the voltages as listed in Table 7 (see below) will require a

fine adjustment using the

voltage regulator (VR) control

knob located on the control panel.

Voltage Selector Switch

The voltage selector switch (Figure 13) is located above

the output terminal panel’s Hard Wire Hook-up Panel. It

has been provided for ease of voltage selection.

Voltage Selector Switch Locking Button

The voltage selector switch has a locking button to protect

the generator and load from being switched while the

engine is running. To lock the voltage selector switch, press

and hold the red button located at the bottom of the switch.

Generator Amperage

Table 8 shows the

provide.

Do not exceed the maximum amps as listed..

GFcI Receptacle Load capability

The load capability of the GFcI receptacles is directly

related to the voltage being supplied at either the output

terminals or the 2 twist lock auxiliary receptacles.
Tables 9 and 10 show what amount of current is available

at the GFcI receptacles when the output terminals and

twist lock receptacles are in use. Be careful that your load

does not to exceed the available current capability at the

receptacles.
