CONTROLS AND FEATURES
Ground Terminal
The ground terminal (O) connects to the frame of the
generator, metal parts that do not conduct current, and
ground terminals of each receptacle. Consult a qualified
electrician, electrical inspector, or local agency having
jurisdiction for local codes or ordinances for the intended
use of the generator before using the ground terminal.
AC Receptacles
The AC receptacles (P) provide two connections for
properly rated AC appliances, see page 38 for
specifications. .
Indicator Panel
Output Indicator
The output indicator (Q) illuminates GREEN when the
generator is in normal operation and producing electrical
power at the receptacles.
Overload Indicator
The overload indicator (R) illuminates RED if there is a
short circuit in the connected appliance(s), or if the
generator is overloaded. The light remains illuminated for
5 seconds, then the current to the connected appliance is
shut off and the output indicator light (GREEN)
extinguishes.
Low Oil Indicator
The low oil indicator (S) illuminates RED before the oil
level falls below a safe limit and the detection system
automatically stops the engine. When there is a low
engine oil level at startup, the engine will be prevented
from starting.
Overload Protector Reset Switch
Should the generator overload, AC power will be cut off
but the engine will stay running. Correct the overload
condition and then press the overload reset switch (T)on
the front panel. AC power will be restored immediately.
Parallel Receptacles
Two Polaris parallel ready generators can be connected
together to increase the total power available to a load,
using the parallel receptacles (K). The system seamlessly
matches frequency and automatically evenly distributes
the load to each generator so one is not overloaded.
Contact your dealer for the proper kit for your particular
application.
