M42411KItem Number: 42411Serial Number:Owner’s ManualInstructions for Installation/Set-up, Operation, Servicing, & StoragePortable, Outdoor Use-Only, Gasoline GeneratorCan be used to power individual appliances plugged directly into the generator’s outlets, or as a back-upconnection to a building’s power supply (via a professionally installed UL-approved transfer switch).WARNINGREAD and UNDERSTAND this manual completely before using the generator! Failure to properly set up,operate, and maintain this generator could result in serious injury or death from carbon monoxide poisoning,electric shock, fire/explosion, or burns. Generator has been shipped WITHOUT engine oil, Check the oil levelusing the dipstick and add oil as needed. In particular, be aware of the following hazards:CO PoisoningGenerators give off carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas that can kill you. You CANNOT smell it, see it, or taste it. ONLY run generator OUTDOORS and AWAY from building air intakes. NEVER run generator inside any enclosed orsemi-enclosed spaces, including homes, basements, garages, sheds, boxes, RVs, boats or pick-up truck beds. Thesespaces can trap poisonous gases, EVEN if you run a fan or open windows. Install carbon monoxide alarms inside nearby structures/buildings (battery-operated, or plug-in with battery backup).Electric shock / Electrocution High voltage electricity from generator can kill. DO NOT operate in wet locations. Be sure generator is properlygrounded. Use only UL-listed, outdoor-rated grounded extension cords of proper size. NEVER plug the generator directly into a wall outlet. ANY connection to a building’s electrical system MUSTISOLATE THE GENERATOR FROM UTILITY POWER via a UL-approved transfer switch installed by a licensedelectrician. Otherwise, back feed from the generator into the power grid could kill utility workers.Fire / Explosion DO NOT overload generator (per rated capacity), and OPERATE ONLY in an area with adequate cooling ventilation soengine does not overheat. Exhaust can be extremely hot. Keep muffler at least 7 feet from all combustible objects. All fuels are flammable. Never fuel a running or hot engine. Never pump fuel directly into generator at gas station – useapproved container to transfer fuel. Ensure there are no fuel leaks, and keep sources of sparks and flames away. ALWAYS keep a fire extinguisher rated “ABC” nearby.STOP!CHOOSE THE RIGHT GENERATOR FOR YOUR NEEDS. See the “Power load Planning & Management” sectionof this manual to determine your power load requirements and then compare to the generator’s rated capacity.INSPECT COMPONENTS: Closely inspect to make sure no components are missing or damaged. See the “Unpacking& Delivery Inspection” section for instructions on whom to contact to report missing or damaged parts.ARRANGE FOR PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION of a transfer switch if you will be connecting the generator toyour building’s electrical system. See the “Installation/Initial Set-Up” section for more information about thisrequirement.Any Questions, Comments, Problems, or Parts OrdersCall Powerhorse Product Support 1-866-443-2576

Power Load Planning & ManagementWARNINGNEVER exceed the rated wattage capacity of your generator.OVERLOADING may cause SERIOUS DAMAGE to the generator andattached electrical devices, and may result in fire.Your generator MUST BE SIZED PROPERLY to provide both the running and starting (surge)wattage of the devices you will be powering. Before using your generator, determine the runningand starting wattage requirements of all the electrical devices you will be powering simultaneously.The sum of the running and starting wattages of the devices being powered must not exceed thecontinuous output rating of your generator. (The continuous output rating of your generator is listedin the “Specifications” section of this manual.) Note that: Devices without electric motors such as light bulbs, radios, and televisions have the samerunning and starting wattage. Devices with electric motors such as refrigerators, compressors, and hand tools typicallyrequire a starting wattage that is 3 to 5 times greater than the running wattage.The running and starting wattage requirements are often listed on a device’s nameplate. If wattageis not given on the device’s nameplate, the wattage may be calculated by multiplying the nameplatevoltage by nameplate amperage, Watts Volts X Amps.Example conversion to watts:120 Volts X 5 Amps 600 WattsIf only the running voltage is given on the nameplate for a device with an electric motor, the startingwattage can be approximated to be three to five times the running wattage.Estimates for the running wattage requirements for common devices are listed in Table 1 below.Guidance for starting wattages is provided in the table’s footnotes.Table 1Device10in.

Power Load Planning & Management (cont’d)To calculate the running and starting wattage requirements for the devices you will bepowering, follow these steps:1. Make a list of all electrical devices you will be powering at the same time with the generator.2. List the greater of the running or starting wattage next to each device as obtained from thedevices’ nameplate or Table 1. If only the running wattage for a device with an electricmotor is known, the starting wattage can be estimated to be at least 3 times the runningwattage.3. Add the wattages for all devices on your list. This total must be lower than the continuousoutput rating of your generator.Example:Device to be PoweredLight Bulbs (10 – 75 watt)Refrigerator FreezerMicrowave Oven 1000WAir Conditioner, Window (10,000 BTU)Sump pump (1/3 hp)TotalGreater ofStarting/Running Wattage750 W1500 W1000 W2200 W1300 W6750WIn this example, the generator must have a continuous output of at least 6750 watts in order topower all of the devices simultaneously.The overload indicator light 1 comes on when the total wattage exceeds the generatorscapability. If that happens, proceed as follows:1. Turn off any connected electric devices and stop the generator.2. Reduce the total wattage of connected electric devices within the rated output.3. Check for blockages in the cool air intake (louver) and around the control unit. If anyblockages are found remove.4. After checking, restart the generator.STAGGERING LOADSYou can increase the number of devices your generator can power by staggering the load on thegenerator. For example, you could alternately power your refrigerator and air conditioner forlimited periods of time -- powering only one of the devices at a time and never powering both at thesame time.13
