IMPORTANT: Do not overload the generator. Also, do not overload
individual panel receptacles. These outlets are protected against
overload with push-to-reset-type circuit breakers. If amperage
rating of any circuit breaker is exceeded, that breaker opens and
electrical output to that receptacle is lost. Read “Don’t Overload the
Generator” carefully.

2.11 LOW OIL LEVEL SHUTDOWN SYSTEM
The engine is equipped with a low oil level sensor that shuts down
the engine automatically when the oil level drops below a specified
level. If the engine shuts down by itself and the fuel tank has
enough gasoline, check engine oil level.
2.11.1 SENSING LOW OIL LEVEL
If the system senses a low oil level during operation, the engine
shuts down. The engine will not run until the oil has been refilled
to the proper level.
2.12 CHARGING THE BATTERY (ELECTRIC START
UNITS ONLY)
DANGER
Storage batteries give off explosive hydrogen
gas while recharging. An explosive mixture will
remain around the battery for a long time after
it has been charged. The slightest spark can
ignite the hydrogen and cause an explosion.
Such an explosion can shatter the battery and
cause blindness or other serious injury.
DANGER
Do not permit smoking, open flame, sparks or
any other source of heat around a battery. Wear
protective goggles, rubber apron and rubber
gloves when working around a battery. Battery
electrolyte fluid is an extremely corrosive
sulfuric acid solution that can cause severe
burns. If spill occurs flush area with clear water
immediately.
NOTE:
The battery shipped with the generator has been fully charged.
A battery may lose some of its charge when not in use for
prolonged periods of time. If the battery is unable to crank the
engine, plug in the 12V charger included in the accessory box
(see section "Charging the Battery"). RUNNING THE GENERATOR
DOES NOT CHARGE THE BATTERY.
Use battery charger plug to keep the battery charged and ready for
Use battery charger plug to keep the battery charged and ready for
use. Battery charging should be done in a dry location.
1. Plug charger into “Battery Charger Input” jack, located on the
control panel. Plug wall receptacle end of the battery charger
into a 120 Volt AC wall outlet (Figure 16).
2. Unplug battery charger from wall outlet and control panel jack
when generator is going to be in use.
