It has four 8mm screws that have eight wires plugged into it. Two wires per terminal. Step 3: Identify where the wires from front panel are coming from. You will notice that they come through a rubber grommet on the 12 O'clock position on the opening. Four of the those wires lead to the top side screw terminal block. Step 4: Identify the four wires coming from the generator head. They come up from the bottom the thermal block. Step 5: Unscrew the 8mm screw from the red wires. You will not be using this terminal anymore. Remove both red wires. Step 6: Remove the 8mm screw from the blue wires. Leave the blue wires on the bolt. Take the top red wire (from the panel) and attach it the terminal that the two blue wires are using. Reattach the 8mm screw. This terminal now has two blue wires and one red wire (from the panel). Step 7: Remove the 8mm screw from the brown wires. Leave the brown wires on the bolt. Take the bottom red wire (from the generator head) and attach it the terminal that the two brown wires are using. Reattach the 8mm screw. This terminal now has two brown wires and one red wire (from the generator head). Step 8: Reattach the two 8mm bolts on the generator head cover I took back the nikota and got the PowerPro 3500.Now I want to rewire it.I am not real bright at this stuff so I need Help! OK let get this right. I have a 120v plug and a 240 plug ? Does the 240 plug only get half or full 3500.I know that the 120v plug is half 3500 right. Now I want to use this on my RV and I want the full 3500watts so I must rewire it. OK here is were I am all messed up. I open up the cover and go by Bob directions and look and I only have 6 wires coming form the gen head. On the 240 plug back I have 2 red wires connected together and only 1 blue wire and 2 brown wires.Here is a PIC.I know this isn't hard just want to make sure what goes where.Does the red wire from panel goto the one blue wire on block or blue wire from gen head? Anyone that has a PowerPro 3500 can help me rewire this.If not I might take it back and get the Powerpro 5500.351Views0likes0CommentsRe: 3000W Chinese Gensets Info.
I have a nikota 3500 I want to rewire it.It has the 10amp breakers.Can I used the same wiring as the powerpro instructions and do I need to replace 10 amp with a 15 amp breaker? I got this nikota before I read here.I wish I had bought a different one.If anyone has any instructions on the rewire for the Nikota 3500 please send!342Views0likes0Comments
