5-2-5 IDLE CONTROL UNIT The idle control unit releases throttle valve when the applied load current exceeds 0'.04A. The two output wires from the main coils must go through the ZCT in the same direction. NOTE : It is normal that the engine speed goes up for a moment when you turn the key switch to "STOP" while the Auto Idle Switch is in "ON" position.

Push blue TEST button, The red RESET button will pop out exposing the word TRIP. Power is now off at the outlets protected by the GFCI, indicating that the device is functioning properly. If TRIP dose not appear when testing, do not use the generator. Call a qualified electrician. To restore power, push RESET button. WARNING :

Two main coils are wound over stator core. Each main coil outputs half the rated power at the lower voltage (120V). These main coils are wound to be in the same phase. The full power switch reconnects these main coils in parallel or in series. Fig. 5-14 shows a circuit diagram. When the full power switch is set for single lower voltage indication 5-1 5 is a simplified (120V), the switch position is as indicated by the lower solid line in the

5-4 OIL SENSOR 541 DESCRIPTION The oil sensor mainly functions to detect posi- tion of the surface of engine oil in the crankcase of engines for general use and to stop the en- gine automatically when the oil level goes down below the lower limit specified. This prevents sei- zure of engine from occurring due to insufficient amount of oil in the crankcase. OIL SENSOR Since the sensor has been designed to.consume a part of power supplied to the igniter to ener- gize it

[Judgement of oil level] When sufficient oil is in the crankcase, both of inner and outer electrodes are immersed in the oil through which current flows across the electrodes. The sensor judges that oil in the crankcase is sufficient. When oil level goes down and the inner electrode is exposed to the air due to consumption of oil, no current flow between the electrodes as air is considered to be electrically nonconductive. The sensor in
