OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

GENERATOR CONTROL PANEL

Mounted on the generator control panel (Figure 2) are

the following features:

■ START/STOP SWITCH_________________

To crank and start the engine, hold this switch at its

START position. Release the switch when the engine

starts. To stop an operating engine, press and hold

the switch in its STOP position until the engine shuts

off. The switch center position is the RUN position.

■ FUSE

_______________________________

Protects the engine DC control circuit against electri

cal overload. If the fuse element has melted open due

to overloading, the engine cannot be cranked. If you

must replace it, use only an identical replacement

fuse.

■ MAIN BREAKER______________________

Protects generator’s AC output circuit against overload,

i.e., prevents unit from exceeding wattage/amperage

capacity.

NOTE: If the Series Q-55LP or Q-70LP has been recon

nected for dual voltage AC output (120/240 volts), you

can install line breakers having an amperage rating that

is different than stated previously. The replacement main

breakers consist of two separate breakers with a con

necting piece between the breaker handles (so that both

breakers will operated at the same time). If the unit is

reconnected for dual voltage, it is no longer RVIA listed.
