Overloading EG4 6000xp Legs

I currently have my entire house running off of one EG4 6000xp (running beautifully) and the only thing left to move over to solar is my AC unit with a soft start. I'm pretty sure it will be too much, but if I give it a try, what would be the worst case scenario? What actually happens if you try to pull more than 3000 watts on one or both legs of an EG4 6000xp assuming it's longer than the 3 or 5 second surge capacities? Will it:
1) Damage the inverter?
2) Go into fault and shut down?
3) Continue running, but pulls extra power from the grid as needed?
