Note:

We supply the engine Owner’s

Manual with generator. Refer to that manual
for questions concerning engine operation.

USING RECEPTACLE

Note:

Do not exceed amperage rating of

receptacles. Exceeding rating will trip re-
ceptacle circuit breaker.

Use receptacles properly. Improper use could
damage generator. Use only grounded ex-
tension cords. Power only grounded or
double-insulated items. Do not overload
receptacles. Both generators have the fol-
lowing receptacles (see Figure 14):

• 120V, 15-amp GFCI duplex receptacle

• 120V, 30-amp twist-lock receptacle

• 120/240V, 20 or 30-amp twist-lock

receptacle

• 120V, 15-amp duplex receptacle

Model PGH11000IE also has a 120/240V,
50-amp receptacle (see Figure 14).

DANGER: Never connect gen-

erator to any existing electrical
circuits. The generator output will
back-feed into the utility power
line. This may electrocute a power
company line repair person. Also,
if generator is powering electri-
cal circuits, the chance of an elec-
trical fire exists.

DANGER: Use only in well-

vented areas. Make sure area has
plenty of free-moving, fresh, out-
side air. Never run generator in
an enclosed or confined area.
Never run generator inside occu-
pied building. Engine exhaust
contains poisonous carbon mon-
oxide gas. Overexposure will
cause loss of consciousness and
will lead to death.

GENERAL INFORMATION

This generator is not large enough to power
your entire home. Do not connect generator
to any existing electrical circuits. Plug items
directly into generator receptacles. Do not
exceed amperage rating of receptacles. Only
use grounded cords.
