You must mak_ sure your generator r._n supply enough
ra_ed (running) and surge (starring) watts for the items you
will power at the same time, Follow these simple steps:
I. Select the items you will power at the same _ime,
2. To_I the rated (running) watts of these items,This is
"the amount of power your generator must produce to
keep your i_ems running, See Figure 13.
3. Estimate how many surge (s_rting) wa_s you will
need, Surge wattage is the shor'; burst of power
needed to star_ electric motor-driven tools or
appliances such as a circular saw or refrigerator.
Because not all motors s_rt at die same time, total
surge watts can be estimated by adding only the
item(s) with die highest additional surge watts to die

Power Management
To prolong the life of your generator and at_ched devices,
it is important to take care when adding electrical loads to
your generator, There should be nothing connected to the
generator outlets before starting it's engine,The correct
and safe w_/to manage generator power is to sequentially
add loads as follows:
I. With nothing connected to the generator, start the
engine zs described in this manual,
2. Plug in and turn on the first load, preferably die largest
load you have,
,
4. Plug in and turn on the next load,
S. Again, permit the generator to stabilize.
6. Repe_t steps 4 and 5 for each additional load.
NEVER add more loads than die generator c_paciw.Tak_
special care to consider surge loads in generator capaci_/,

slo_s in_he generator muse noC become clogged with snow,
leaves or _ny other foreign m_teri_l.
NOTE: DO NOT use garden hose to cle_n generator.
Water can enter engine fuel system and c_use problems. In
_ddi_ion, if w_ter enters generator _hrough cooling _ir slots,
some of _he w_ter will be re_ined in voids _nd crec_ of
_he rotor and sta_or winding insul_ion,W_er _nd dir_
buildup on the generecor internal windings will eventually
decrease the insulation resistance of these windings,
Battery Maintenance
O_her _h_n float charging,described elsewhere, no
maintenance is recIuired for the b_t_ery, Keep the battery
_nd terminals cle_n _nd dry,
IMPORTANT: B_ery charging should be performed in a

Use soft brisde brush to loosen c_ked on dir_ or oil.
Use vacuum cleaner to pick up loose dirt.
Use low pressure _ir (not co exceed 25 psi) to blow
w_y dir_, Inspect cooling _ir slots _nd opening on
generecor.These openings muse be kept cle_n and
unobstructed,
