Capacity

You must make sureyour generator cansupply enough

rated (running) and surge (starting) watts for the items you

will power at the same time. Follow these simple steps:

1. Selectthe itemsyou will power at the same time.

2. Totalthe rated(running) watts ofthese items. This is the

amount of poweryour generatormust produceto keep

your items running. SeeWattageReferenceGuide.

3. Estimatehow many surge (starting) watts you will need.

Surge wattageis the short burst of power neededto

start electric motor-driven tools or appliancessuch asa

circular saw or refrigerator. Becausenot all motors start

atthe sametime, total surgewatts can be estimatedby

adding only the item(s) with the highest additionalsurge

watts to thetotal ratedwatts from step 2.

Power Management

To prolong the life of your generatorand attacheddevices, it

is important to take carewhen adding electrical loadsto your

generator. Thereshould be nothing connectedto the

generator outlets before starting its engine.Thecorrect and

safe way to managegeneratorpower isto sequentiallyadd

loads asfollows:

1. With nothing connectedto the generator,start the

engine asdescribed inthis manual.

2. Plug in andturn on the first load, preferablythe largest

load you have.

3. Permit the generatoroutput to stabilize (engine runs

smoothly and attacheddeviceoperates properly).

4. Plug in andturn on the next load.

5. Again, permit the generatorto stabilize.

6. Repeatsteps 4 and 5 for eachadditional load.

NEVERadd more loads than the generatorcapacity.Take

special careto consider surge loads in generator capacity,as

described above.
