EH?

With a generator that small your best bet is to use it only as a 12V charger directly to the battery or batteries. If it has a 12V output.

If it only has AC output you're probably going to overload it as soon as you plug your monty into it unles you turn all of the AC breakers except the converter. Try it!

This process is commonly known as 'The Smoke Test'.

Good luck!
