3.7.2 HIGH TEMPERATURE SWITCH
This switch’s contacts (Figure 3.3) close if the tem-
perature should exceed approximately 140º C (284º
F), initiating an engine shutdown. The generator will
automatically restart and the LED will reset once the
temperature has returned to a safe operating level.

3.7.3 OVERCRANK
This feature prevents the generator from damaging
itself when it continually attempts to start and anoth-
er problem, such as no fuel supply, prevents it from
starting. The unit will crank and rest for a preset time
limit. Then, it will stop cranking, and the LED will
light indicating an overcrank failure. The AUTO/OFF/
MANUAL switch will need to be set to OFF and then
back to AUTO to reset the generator control board.

NOTE:
If the fault is not repaired, the overcrank feature

3.7.4 OVERSPEED
This feature protects the generator from damage by
shutting it down if it happens to run faster than the
preset limit. This protection also prevents the gen-
erator from supplying an output that could poten-
tially damage appliances connected to the generator
circuit. Contact the nearest Authorized Dealer if this
failure occurs.

4.1 FUSE
The generator panel’s 15 amp fuse (Figure 4.1) pro-
tects the DC control circuit against overload. The fuse
is wired in series with the battery output lead to the
panel. If the fuse element has melted open, the engine
cannot crank or start. Replace the fuse using only an
identical 15-amp replacement.

cannot crank or start. Replace the fuse using only an
identical 15-amp replacement.
The generator panel’s 5 amp fuse protects the battery
charge circuit against overload. If the fuse element has
melted open, battery charging capability will not be
possible. Replace the fuse using only an identical 5
amp replacement. To remove fuse, push cap down and
rotate counterclockwise.
