100415 - 3550W WIRELESS REMOTE START GENERATOR

OPERATION

18

7.  Test start and stop features.

 

NOTICE

Only two remote controls can be synced with one generator 
at a time.

 

NOTICE

Changing a remote control battery may not require the user 
to reset the remote control.

Starting the Engine

1.  Make certain the generator is on a flat, level surface.

2.  Turn the gasoline fuel valve to the “ON” position. 

Wireless Remote Start

Wireless remote starting is only possible within 80 feet of the 
generator.

DO NOT attempt to adjust the choke. The remote system will 
automatically close and open the choke.

1.  Push the battery switch to the “ON” position. 

2.  Push the ignition switch to the “ON” position. 

3.  Press and release the “START” button on the remote 

control. DO NOT hold the button down, only press the 
button once. The engine will attempt to start six times.

Electric Start

DO NOT attempt to adjust the choke. The remote system will 
automatically close and open the choke.

1.  Push the battery switch to the “ON” position. 

2.  Push the ignition switch to the “ON” position. 

3.  Press and hold the ignition switch to the “START” position. 

Release as the engine begins to start. If the engine fails 
to start within five seconds, release the switch and wait 
at least ten seconds before attempting to start the engine 
again.

 

CAUTION

If the ignition switch is held down in the “START” position 
longer than 5 seconds it could damage the starter.

Manual Start

1.  Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator. Never 

start or stop the generator manually with electrical devices 
plugged in or turned on. 

2.  Move the choke to the “CHOKE” position.

3.  For restarting a warm engine, move the choke to 75% of 

the “CHOKE” position.

4.  Push the ignition switch to the “ON” position. 

5.  Pull the starter cord slowly until resistance is felt and then 

pull rapidly

6.  Do not over-choke. As soon as engine starts, move the 

choke to the “RUN” position over a 2-5 second duration.

 

NOTICE

Keep choke in “CHOKE” position for only 1 pull of the recoil 
starter. After first pull, move choke to the “RUN” position for 
up to the next 3 pulls of the recoil starter. Too much choke 
leads to spark plug fouling/engine flooding due to the lack of 
incoming air. This will cause the engine not to start.

 

NOTICE

For gasoline restarts with hot engine in hot ambient 
> 30°C (86°F):

 Keep the choke in 75% of the “CHOKE” 

position for only 1 pull of the recoil starter. After first pull, 
move choke to the “RUN” position for up to 3 more pulls 
of the recoil starter. Too much choke leads to spark plug 
fouling/engine flooding due to the lack of incoming air. This 
will cause the engine not to start.

 

NOTICE

For gas starting in cold ambient <15°C (59°F):

 the choke 

must be in 100% of the “CHOKE” position for recoil start 
procedures. Do not over-choke. As soon as engine starts, 
gradually move the choke lever to the “RUN” position over a 
2-5 second duration.

 

NOTICE

For Wireless and Electric Start only:

 A safety feature 

is provided which delays the electrical power availability 
during starting mode. The delay lasts for approximately 15 
seconds. The delay is provided to prevent damage to the 
generator if electrical loads are inadvertently turned on 
during engine startup.
