adjust trimmer (Figure 51) located on the control box to
adjust the rated speed of the engine

abnormal conditions exist, take corrective action to solve
the problem.
20. If there are no abnormal problems shown on the “MPEC"
LED display, turn the MAIN, GFCI and LOAD circuit
breakers to their ON position (Figure 52).
