Charging the Battery
If it is necessary to charge the battery, proceed as follows:
1. Turn the generator off.
2. Remove control board fuse from control board.
3. Disconnect negative battery cable from negative
battery terminal (indicated by NEGATIVE, NEG, or (‑)).
NOTICE Failure to disconnect negative battery cable will result in
equipment failure.
• DO NOT attempt to jump start the generator.
• Damage to equipment resulting from failure to follow this
instruction will void engine and generator warranty.
4. Charge battery with battery charger at 2 Amps until
battery holds 12 Volts. DO NOT exceed 13.7 volts
when charging.
CAUTION With the system switch set to AUTO, the engine could
crank and start at any time without warning, resulting in
minor or moderate injury.
• To prevent possible injury that could be caused by such sudden
starts, always set the system switch to OFF if performing
maintenance on the system.
• Remove the control board fuse before working on or around the
generator or transfer switch.
