- Honda Generator Owner's Manual

AC applications

1. Start the engine and make sure the pilot lamp comes on. If not, check the

filament.

2. Switch on the AC Circuit Breaker.

NOTE: Although voltage adjustment is usually not required, fine adjust-

ments may be made by turning the voltage adjustment knob. Use the

generator at the specified voltage (12OV).

3. Plug in the appliance; always three-pronged plugs,

CAUTION: Be sure that appliances do not exceed the generator’s rated

load capacity for more than 30 minutes and that they never exceed the

maximum load capacity. Substantial overloading will switch off the circuit

breaker. Marginal overloading may not switch off the circuit breaker, but

it will shorten the service life of the generator.

Be sure that all appliances are in good working order before connecting

them to the generator. If an appliance begins to operate abnormally,

becomes sluggish, or stops suddenly, turn off the circuit breaker and the

generator engine switch immediately. Then disconnect the appliance and

examine it for signs of malfunction.

NOTE: If an overloaded circuit causes the AC circuit breaker to switch

off, reduce the electrical load on the circuit and wait a few minutes before

resetting the circuit breaker.
