14. The ammeter (Figure 51) will indicate zero amps with no
load applied. When a load is applied, the ammeter will
indicate the amount of current that the load is drawing
from the generator.
13. The generator's AC-voltmeter (Figure 49) will display the
generator’s output in VOLTS. If the voltage is not within
the specified tolerance, use the voltage adjustment
control knob (Figure 50) to increase or decrease the
desired voltage.
