11. The generator's frequency meter (Figure 53) displays
the 60 cycle output frequency in HERTZ.

12. The generator's voltage meter (Figure 54) displays the
120 VAC in VOLTS. If the voltage is not within the
specified frequency tolerance, use the voltage
adjustment control knob (Figure 55) to increase or
decrease the desired voltage.
14. The engine oil pressure gauge (Figure 57) will indicate
the oil pressure (kg/ cm
2
)
of the engine. Under normal
operating conditions the oil pressure should be
approximately 25 psi.
15. The coolant temperature gauge (Figure 58) will indicate
the coolant temperature. Under normal operating
conditions the coolant temperature should be between
105 and 215 degrees fahrenheit (Green Zone).

13. The ammeter (Figure 56) will indicate zero amps with
no load applied. When a load is applied, this meter will
indicate the amount of current that the load is drawing
from the generators alternator.
16. The tachometer (Figure 59) will indicate the speed of
the engine when the generator is operating. Under normal
operating conditions this speed should be approximately
1800 RPMs.
