CORD SETS AND RECEPTACLESCAUTION• NEVER attempt to power a device requiring moreamperage than generator or receptacle can supply.• DO NOT overload the generator, See "Don't OverloadGenerator".Use only high quality, well-insulated, extension cordswith the generator's 120 Volt electrical receptacles.Check the ratings of all extension cords before youuse them. Extension cord sets used should be ratedfor 125 Volt AC loads at 20 Amps or greater for mostelectrical devices. Some devices, however, may notrequire this type of extension cord. Check the owner'smanuals of those devices for the manufacturer'srecommendations.Keep extension cords as short as possible, preferablyless than 15 feet long, to prevent voltage drop andpossible overheating of wires.120 Volt AC, 20 Amp Duplex ReceptacleEach receptacle is protected against overload by asingle 20 Amp push-to-reset circuit breaker. Use eachreceptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, single phase 60 Hzelectrical loads requiring up to 2,400 watts (2.4 kW) at20 Amps of current.1 1201240 Volt AC, 30 Amp ReceptacleThis is a full capacity receptacle; it can supply thegenerator's full rated output from this sole outlet. Theoutlet is protected by two 20 Amp push-to-resetcircuit breakers.4-Wire Cord Set_j_ Y (Hot) X (Hot)NEMA L14-30 /_ Ground (Green)A NEMA L14-30 plug is used with this 240 Voltreceptacle. Connect a suitable 4-wire cord set to theplug and to the desired load. The cord set should berated for 250 Volt AC loads at 30 Amps (or greater).10
