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 15). To obtain some of 
the voltages as listed in Table 9 (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 15) is located above 
the output terminal panel’s Hard Wire Hook-up Panel. It 
has been provided for ease of voltage selection..

  caution
never change the position of the voltage selector 
switch while the engine is running. alWaYs place 
circuit breaker in the 
OFF position before selecting 
voltage

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 three twist lock auxiliary receptacles.
Figure 18 and Table 12 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.
