Power Outlets
The generator has the following 120/240 volt 60 Hz (single-
phase) receptacles.
Single Phase
One Duplex NEMA (GFCI) 5-20R (120V, 20 Amp)
One Twist Lock NEMA L5-30R (120V, 30 Amp)
One Twist Lock NEMA L6-20R (240V, 20 Amp)
Main Circuit Breaker (2-Pole 120/240V 60 Hz)
This 2-pole 21 amp breaker protects the generator from short
circuiting or overloading from the 120/240V 60 Hz single
phase load.
CAUTION :
When using a combination of dual
receptacles, total load should not exceed
the rated capacity of the generating.
Idle Control Switch
This unit is provided with an automatic idle control for noise
suppression and reduced fuel consumption. The automatic
idle control automatically engages under a no-load condition.
With the automatic idle control switched “ON”, the engine
revolutions will automatically drop to about 2500 rpm (low-
speed operation) within 3 seconds after the load stops. When
the operation is resumed, the engine speed is automatically
increased to about 3600 rpm (high-speed operation) as soon
as the load is connected.
Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge is located on the fuel tank and allows easy
monitoring of the fuel level.
AC Voltmeter
This voltmeter indicates (with a mark) the rated 60 Hz,
single phase output voltage. In addition the voltmeter can
also be used as a diagnostic tool.
If the voltmeter indicator (needle) is below the rated voltage,
engine problems may exist (low/high RPM's). To prevent
damage to the generator or power tools turn the generator
OFF and consult your authorized Multiquip service dealer.
