Economy Control Switch
The Economy Control switch can be activated in order to
minimize fuel consumption and noise while operating the
unit during times of reduced electrical output, allowing
the engine speed to idle during periods of non-use. The
engine speed returns to normal when an electrical load is
connected. When the economy switch is off, the engine
runs at normal speed continuously.
When the oil falls below the minimum level, the oil
warning indicator light comes on and the engine
stops automatically. The engine will not start until
the proper amount of oil is in the crank case.
The green AC Power Indicator Light comes on
when the engine starts and generates power.
If the engine overload indicator light comes on, the
generator’s wattage / amperage capacity has been
exceeded by connected electrical devices or by a
power surge. When this occurs, the green AC Power
Indicator Light(Item 7) will go off. The engine will
continue to run, but the red Engine Overload Indicator
Light will stay on and power will no longer be supplied
to connected electronic devices.

DC 5V 2.1A USB Outlet
Circuit Breakers – The receptacles are protected by
an AC circuit protector. If the generator is overloaded
or an external short circuit occurs, the circuit protector
will trip. If this occurs, disconnect all electrical loads and
try to determine the cause of the problem before
attempting to use the generator again. If overloading
causes the circuit protector to trip, reduce the load.
Note: Continuous tripping of the circuit protector
may cause damage to generator or equipment. The
circuit protector may be reset by pushing the button
of the protector.
