IDLE CONTROL SWITCH (Except RGX2900)
IDLE CONTROL SWITCH automatically reduces engine speed when load is OFF,
and automatically increases engine speed to rated r.p.m. when load is ON.
IDLE CONTROL SWITCH provides fuel economy and low noise operation at no-load
running.
(1) HOW TO USE IDLE CONTROL SWITCH
Start the engine with IDLE CONTROL
SWITCH off.
NOTE :
Warm up the engine without a load for a few
minutes.
Turn IDLE CONTROL SWITCH on.
(2) CHECKING THE OPERATION
When IDLE CONTROL SWITCH does not operate normally, please check following :
Overloaded ?
Please make it sure that the generator is not overload.
NOTE :
Most induction loads such as electric motors require three to five times more wattage
than their ratings during starting.
This starting wattage should not exceed the rated output of the generator for proper
operation of IDLE CONTROL SWITCH.
Turn IDLE CONTROL SWITCH off when the IDLE CONTROL SWITCH does not
work normally under the rated output.
NOTE :
The IDLE CONTROL SWITCH may not operate when the applied load is under 40W.
In such cases turn the IDLE CONTROL SWITCH off.
(3) STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn off the switch of load.
Switch off generator’s AC breaker.
Disconnect tool or appliance.
Turn the IDLE CONTROL SWITCH off.
Turn the STOP SWITCH to the position “O” (OFF).
NOTE :
Allow the engine about 3 minutes to cool down at no-load before stopping.
