Fuel Tank Cap Vent Lever
The fuel tank cap is provided with a vent lever (
A
, Figure 2) to
seal the fuel tank. The vent lever must be in the “ON” position
for the engine to run.
When the engine is not in use, leave the vent lever in the
“OFF” position to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage. Allow
the engine to cool before turning the vent lever to the “OFF”
position.
Grounding Fastener
The generator neutral is floating, which means that the AC
stator winding is isolated from the grounding fastener and
the AC receptacle ground pins. Therefore, the AC receptacle
ground pins are not functional and electrical devices, such as
a GFCI will not operate.
