The available power generation capacity is shown on the digital display for each output power supply. Use the display selector switch to display the values in the following order: single phase three-wire U-W output, single phase three-wire U-N output, and single phase three-wire
W-N output. When the engine starts, the display always shows the single phase three-wire UW output.

< Note >
 Consider the digitally displayed available output as an approximate estimate. Be sure to thoroughly consider the displayed value and the used load capacity when using a load such as a motor with large starting capacity.
 If “- -” is displayed for the available output, it means that usage has exceeded the rated capacity. Immediately stop the equipment being used and reduce the load capacity of the equipment.5-2. Spill Containment

WARNING : INJURY
 Do not open the inspection door when the starter switch is in the AUTO or START position. It may get caught in rotating parts such as cooling fans and fan belt.
 Always turn the starter switch to the STOP position and stop the engine, then close and lock OPERATION PANEL DOOR before checking or maintaining the engine.

CAUTION : BURNS
 Do not touch the engine and surrounding components immediately after stopping the engine as they are still extremely hot.
CAUTION : FIRE
 If fuel or oil is leaking, repair the leaking location before operating.

The bed of this generator is equipped with spill containment (structure for preventing leakage of liquid) so that any spilled liquid will not leak to outside of the generator when oil or fuel is spilled. Before starting operation, check if there is accumulated liquid in the spill containment. Flush out any liquid that has accumulated.
(Refer to section “8-4. Checking the Spill Containment” for inspection procedures. ) (Refer to section “10. Inspection/Maintenance (9) Flushing Liquid in Spill Containment” for flushing procedures.)
The generator is equipped with the following in order to prevent liquid from spilling in case you forget to flush the liquid: The operation panel is equipped with an indicator that illuminates when its sensor is triggered as the spill containment capacity accumulated enough liquid to reach the about 3.4 gal. ( 13 liters ).

If the liquid stored in the spill containment exceeds approximately about 11.4 gal. ( 43 liters ) during operation, the SPILL CONTAINMENT overflow warning indicator illuminates, and the engine will be automatically stopped. If this occurs, flush the liquid stored in the spill containment.
(Refer to section “10. Inspection/Maintenance (9) Flushing Liquid in Spill Containment”.)

< Note >
 Water can also accumulate in the spill containment due to rain entering into the generator. Accordingly, you should periodically flush liquid accumulated within the generator. However, you should flush water according to the frequency/amount of rainfall.
 The types of liquids that can accumulate in the spill containment include oil, fuel, coolant and battery fluid such that it is not possible to distinguish between rainwater and other liquids. Dispose of flushed liquids according to the applicable laws and regulations.

5-3. Warning Indicators

WARNING : INJURY
 Do not open the inspection door when the starter switch is in the AUTO or START position. It may get caught in rotating parts such as cooling fans and fan belt.
 Always turn the starter switch to the STOP position and stop the engine, then close and lock OPERATION PANEL DOOR before checking or maintaining the engine.

CAUTION : BURNS
 Do not touch the engine and surrounding components immediately after stopping the engine as they are still extremely hot.

This generator is equipped with the following warning indicators: BATTERY (insufficient charging), OIL PRESS (engine oil pressure), WATER TEMP (coolant temperature), OVER SPEED (engine overspeed) and SPILL CONTAINMENT (spill containment amount). When the engine starts, all the lamps will light off. Moving the starter switch from STOP to START causes the BATTERY and OIL PRESS warning indicator to illuminate, and all of the indicator lights will go off as the engine starts. An indicator illuminates if a malfunction/fault occurs during operation and the engine automatically stops depending on the fault type (except for SPILL CONTAINMENT).
If the generator automatically stops, move the starter switch to STOP and restart the engine.
Then check the lightning state of each warning indicator at the time of automatic stop, and inspect the abnormal part.

(1) BATTERY (Insufficient Charging) Warning Indicator (Low Battery Voltage) The BATTERY warning indicator illuminates and the engine automatically stops when charging is not possible during operation. If this occurs, contact authorized distributor where the generator was purchased.

< Note >

This battery charging warning indicator cannot detect battery deterioration or insufficient battery fluid. (Refer to section “8-6. Checking the Battery”.)

(2) OIL PRESS (engine oil pressure) Warning Indicator (Low Oil Press.)

CAUTION: BURNS
Always be sure to stop the engine and allow the engine to cool when performing inspection or maintenance of engine oil. Opening the oil level indicator or oil filler cap during operation will result in hot oil gushing out.

If the engine oil pressure drops below 14 psi (0.98 x 100 kPa) during operation, the OIL PRESS warning indicator illuminates and the engine will be automatically stopped. If this occurs, check the engine oil level and add engine oil until it reaches the maximum level.

< Note >
This oil pressure warning indicator cannot detect oil deterioration. Change the engine oil periodically. (Refer to section “8-1. Checking Engine Oil”.)
