"SUPPLIED JUMPERS" scream HIDDEN RE-CONNECT WIRE OPTION!
Meaning that is NOT SPECIFICALLY IMPLIED that it is for a reconnectable generator. It is IMPLIED that it cannot be used with a 6-wire reconnectable stator and that by following the manufacturer's instructions, a potential of seventy amperes capacity at 120vac would be available. To say this is confusing is an understatement.
It all depends on whether that model Onan has reconnectable stator leads.
Note the flagrant use of the embarrassing word IMPLIED. You need to get ahold of the DIPSWITCHES at ONAN and let them sort this out.
Side note:
My 1st 250Kw Onan job had me in stitches. The control circuitry had more current transformers than the 3rd Ave Ell. I had no choice but to purchase a thousand dollars worth of Onan service manuals. Onan made the 2.5Kw and the 6.5NH models simple to understand. The rest of the Onans seem to be blood brothers with the Rubik's Cube.
