CONTROL PANEL

A. 120 V, 20 Ampere Duplex Receptacle This duplex is split so that 20 amps of current may be drawn from each half of the receptacle. However, total power drawn must be kept within nameplate ratings. These receptacles may be used along with the twistlock receptacle provided the generator is not overloaded. B. 120/240 V, 20 Ampere Twistlock Receptacle A maximum of 20 amps may be drawn from the 120/240 volt receptacle, provided it is the only receptacle used. However, current must be limited to the nameplate rating. If the 120/240 volt receptacle is used along with the 120 volt receptacle, the total load drawn must not exceed the nameplate ratings. Circuit Breakers The receptacles are protected by an AC circuit breaker. If the generator is overloaded or an external short circuit occurs, the circuit breaker will trip. If this occurs, disconnect all electrical loads and try to determine the cause of the problem before attempting to use the generator again. If overloading causes the circuit breaker to trip, reduce the load. NOTE: Continuous tripping of the circuit breaker may cause damage to generator or equipment. The circuit breaker may be reset by pushing the button of the breaker. C.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED: Transportation charges to Coleman Powermate, Inc. for defective products. Transportation charges to consumer for repaired products. Brushes, fuses, rubber feet, and receptacles. Damages caused by abuse, accident, improper repair, or failure to perform normal maintenance. Power units or engines which are covered exclusively by the warranties of their manufacturer. Sales outside of the United States or Canada. Any other expense including consequential damages, incidental damages, or incidental expenses, including damage to property. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. IMPLIED WARRANTIES: Any implied warranties, including the Implied Warranties of Merchantability and Fitness For A Particular Purpose, are limited in duration to one (1) year from the date of retail purchase. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
