Running Gen for short amounts of time

That should be no problem. However, if you are only using it a few minutes at a time, you still should start and run the genny for at least 1/2 hour under load, to keep fresh gasoline in the generator (if so equipped) and to dry out any moisture that may have collected in and around the generator.

I have a new to me toy hauler with an Onan 4000 Microquiet, I don't have the manual and was wondering if there was anything specifcally to look out for. Also is it ok to run it for a few minutes at a time like at a rest stop or should there be a minimum amount of time?
