ELECTRICAL LOADS AND GUIDELINES 
 
Your generator set is designed to power electrical 
apparatuses within the electrical power output limitations 
of the generator. Please note that any generator overload 
can cause serious problems/damage to your generator. 
Additionally, apparatuses with electrical motors can 
require higher wattage requirements at start-up than when 
running. Some electric motors require as much as 2.5 
times the rated wattage at start-up. Although the start-up 
wattage requirements for electric motors lasts only a few 
seconds, great care must be taken in connecting loads to 
your generator so as not to overload the generator. Refer 
to the label on each electrical apparatus to determine the 
wattage requirements of that apparatus. THE TOTAL 
WATTAGE REQUIREMENTS OF ALL POWERED 
APPARATUSES (INCLUDING START-UP LOADS) 
MUST NEVER EXCEED THE CONTINUOUS RATING 
OF YOUR GENERATOR, CORRECTED TO THE 
ACTUAL ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS AT THE 
OPERATING SITE. 
 
 
As a reference only, Table 1 below shows some general 
wattage requirements for several common electrical 
devices. This chart is intended as a guide only. The actual 
total wattage should be determined by referring to the 
actual labels on each of the powered electrical devices.

GENERATOR DESIGNED 
PERFORMANCE GUIDELINES 
 
This electrical generator is designed to produce electrical 
energy for the purpose of powering lights, power tools, 
appliances and motor loads within the intended design 
constraints of the generator. The generator is designed to 
produce single-phase electrical power at 120 or 120/ 240 
VAC. This generator is not intended for installation in RV 
or motorhome applications. The Performance 
Specifications for your generator are listed in Table 2 
Performance Specifications.

ENGINE LIMITATIONS ON GENERATOR 
PERFORMANCE 
 
Generator ratings assume 60
F (20C) and Sea Level. 
Operation of your generator at temperatures above 60
F 
(20C) or above Sea Level will result in lower electrical 
output. Electrical output must be derated 2% for each 9
F 
above 60
F and 3 ½ % for each 1000 feet above mean 
sea level.
