Your generator requires some assembly. This unit ships from our 
factory without oil. It must be properly serviced with fuel and oil 
before operation.

If you have any questions regarding the assembly of your 
generator, call our Technical Support Team at 1-877-338-0999. 
Please have your serial number and model number available.

Unpacking

1.  Set the shipping carton on a solid, flat surface.

2.  Remove everything from the carton except the generator.

3.  Using the carrying handles of the unit, carefully remove the 

generator from the box (two people lifting is recommended).

Add Engine Oil

 

CAUTION

DO NOT attempt to crank or start the engine before it has been 
properly filled with the recommended type and amount of oil. 
Damage to the generator as a result of failing to follow these 
instructions will void your warranty.
