OPERATION
Safe Operating Precautions
AC Operation
Before connecting a device or power cord to the generator, ensure it is in
good condition. Faulty appliances or power cords can create a potential
for electrical shock.
If an appliance begins to operate abnormally, becomes sluggish, or
suddenly stops, immediately shut it off. Disconnect the appliance and
determine whether the problem is the appliance or if the rated load
capacity of the generator has been exceeded.
Ensure the combined electrical rating of the device or appliance does not
exceed the maximum allowed by the generator. Never exceed the
maximum power rating of the generator. Do not exceed the current limit
specified for any one receptacle. Power levels between rated and
maximum may be used for no more than 30 minutes.
IMPORTANT: Before connecting a device or power cord to the generator,
ensure the device is in good condition and its electrical rating does not
exceed the maximum allowed by the generator.
Note: When the electric motor starts, the overload indicator (middle light) may
illuminate (RED) and extinguish within 4 seconds. If the overload indicator
remains illuminated, consult your POLARIS supplier.
1. Perform “Starting the Engine” (29) and
ensure that the output indicator (A)
illuminates (GREEN).
2. Confirm that the appliance to be
used is switched off then plug
the device or extension cord into
one of the AC receptacles.
3. Turn on the device.
