13. The ammeter (Figure 53) will indicate zero amps with no
load applied. When a load is applied, the ammeter will
indicate the amount of current that the load is drawing
from the generator.
12. The generator's AC-voltmeter (Figure 51) will display the
generator’s output in VOLTS. If the voltage is not within
the specified tolerance, use the voltage adjustment
control knob (Figure 52) to increase or decrease the
desired voltage.

10. Once the engine has started, let it run for 3-5 minutes,
then turn the throttle handle control (Figure 48) to the
“HIGH” position.
6. When starting the generator in COLD weather conditions,
turn the ignition key to the “PREHEAT ” position (Figure 46),

11. The generator's frequency meter (Figure 50) should be
displaying the 60 cycle output frequency in HERTZ.
7. Verify that the pre-heat lamp(Figure 47) is lit (ON) before
starting engine.
5. Set the battery ON/OFF switch (Figure 45) to the “ON”
position.
