DESCRIPTION
This generator isan engine-driven, revolving field,
alternating current (AC) generator.It was designedto
supply electrical power for operating compatible electrical
lighting, appliances,tools and motor loads.
This manualcontains information for a generator that
operates 120 and/or 240Volt, single phase,60 Hz devices
that require up to 6,500 watts (6.5 kW) of power that pull
up to 54.2Amps at 120Volts or 27.1Amps at 240Volts.
CAUTION! Do Not exceed the generator's
wattage/amperage capacity.Add up the rated watts of all
devices you are connecting to generator receptacles at one
time.This total should not be greater than 6,500 watts. See
"Don't Overload the Generator" on page I I.
The generator's revolving field is driven at about 3,600 rpm
by a single-cylinder engine.
Every effort hasbeen madeto ensure that informationin
this manualisaccurate and current However,Generac

_ AUTION! Do Not tamper with engine
governed speed.High operating speedsare
dangerousand increaserisk of personal injuryor
damageto equipment.The generator supplies
correct rated frequency andvoltage only when
running at proper governed speed.Incorrect
frequency and/or voltage can damagesome
connected electrical loads.Operating at excessively
low speedsimposesa heavy load.When adequate
engine power isnot availableengine life may be
shortened.
The Emission Control System for this generator is
