7500 Generator Controls and Features _________________________________________________________________________________________________ Familiarize yourself with the location and function of the controls and features before operating your generator. Save this manual for future reference. Generator 1. Fuel Gauge – Indicates amount of fuel in tank. 6. Recoil Starter – Used to start the engine. 2. Fuel Tank – 7 gallon capacity 3. Choke – Used to start engine. 7.
7500 Generator Controls and Features (cont’d) _________________________________________________________________________________________________ Control Panel 1. Engine Switch – Used to turn on and off the engine. For electric models it is also used to start the engine. operate 120 volt AC, single phase, 60 Hz loads requiring up to 30A or 3600 Watts of power. 7. 12V DC Connectors – Use to charge 12V DC batteries 2.
7500 Generator Installation ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Note: Prior to powering tools and equipment, make sure the generator’s rated voltage, wattage, and amperage capacity (120V-62.5AMPs) is adequate to supply all electrical loads that the unit will power. If powering exceeds the generator’s capacity, it may be necessary to group one or more of the tools and/or equipment for connection to a separate generator.
7500 Generator Installation (cont’d) ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Wheel and Handle Kit Installation (Installation requires a socket wrench with 10mm, 14mm, and 17mm sockets). 1. Before adding oil or gasoline to the engine, tip the generator slowly so that the recoil and air filter are up. 2. Install the two wheels on the generator using the (2) 17mm 2 ½” bolts provided. Make sure the valve stem is facing outward. 3.
7500 Generator Installation (cont’d) ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Note: Models using the electric starter require a 12V battery with a minimum of 17AH. While higher Amp Hour batteries may be used, do not attempt to start the engine using a battery rated for a lower or higher Voltage. Connect the Battery 1. Place battery into battery cradle and secure. 2. Remove the protective cover from the positive (red) battery lead.
7500 Generator Operation ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Starting the Generator Using Gasoline 1. Make sure the generator is on a flat and level surface. 2. Make sure the electrical powered tools/equipment that will be used are not plugged into the generator while the engine is started. 3. Turn the 120 volt AC circuit breaker to its “ON” position. 4. Turn the fuel valve to the “ON” position. 5. Pull the choke rod out. 6.
Switching From Gasoline to Propane 1. 2. 3. 4. Disconnect all load from generator. Make sure propane hoses are properly connected. While the unit is running on gasoline, turn Off the fuel valve. When the generator starts to sputter, open the valve on the propane bottle. (if bottle is newly connected press pressure release valve on regulator on generator and press for2 seconds and release) 5. Reconnect load when unit is running smoothly. Switching From Propane to Gasoline 1. 2. 3. 4.
7500 Generator Operation (cont’d) ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Power Management Use the following formula to convert voltage and amperage to watts: Volts x Amps = Watts To prolong the life of your generator and attached devices, follow these steps to add electrical load: 1. Start the generator with no electrical load attached. 2. Allow the engine to run for several minutes to stabilize. 3. Plug in and turn on the first item.
