Could someone please post on the proper way to wire this generator for a double receptacle outlet, not directly connected to the house. I read to hook L1 and L2 to hot on each receptacle and connect neutral to the frame. Nothing goes to the L0 or L3?
Also, about how many amps can you draw on L1 and L2?
Thank you.

In your case it sounds like you want straight 120V not 240 split into 2 legs as you describe above.
I believe there should be a sticker on or near the clear cover over the lugs that tells you where to set the selector switch and where to hook up your wires. I know the 016 is different than most others like 002/003 802/803.
Should also be listed in the TM.

Indeed! Look in the TM. Its there, looked at it a few months ago. If you don't have the TM's, download them from the TM section in SS. If you need help, say something
