    By the way thanks I seen these same manuals for sale I really don't want to pay for something I already help pay for with taxes I seen there was a switch box connection but that looked like it ran into something else I want a breaker panel that I connect to the generator and run stuff from it for a small shed shop that doesn't have electric there is no heat in the shed so I have a pipe going out for exaust and that generator really help heat up the place

    See Table 6-4 on page 82, table gives what output terminals of TB-1 will give 120/240 volts single phase.

    Does this answer your question?
