Engine Starting 

Before starting the engine, ensure that you have followed all procedures described in the 

Before Use Checklist

. The product is NOT supplied with engine oil, although traces of oil 

from the manufacturing process may be present. It is essential to add adequate engine oil of the correct type 
to the engine before use 

– see 

Engine Oil

Failure to add engine oil will void the product warranty

• 

Before starting the generator, disconnect all output sockets so that no load is immediately placed on 
the generator as it starts up

• The generator may feature in-built protection that will prevent the engine 

running if there is insufficient engine oil, the unit is over-temperature or is over-loaded. 

The following procedures and images are typical to all models, however, the position or appearance of 
controls etc may vary. All major engine controls are identified on the machine by way of stickers or other 
markings. 

Once the engine is started, the engine speed will automatically regulate depending on connected load. For 
example, under high loads, the engine will run at higher speed to maintain the required output. 

Starting 

Connect the battery

 before attempting to start the unit. If the battery is flat, charge it before using the 

generator, or use th

jump-start

 method. Once the engine is running, it will charge the battery. 

1. 

FUEL

 

– Open the front engine access cover, then place the fuel tap (

A

) in the "ON" position (rotate the 

lever right (clockwise)).  

2. 

THROTTLE

 

– Place the throttle control (

B

) in the "RUN" position (to the right). Some models may use a 

screw to secure the throttle in position 

– to adjust, loosen the screw and move it to the required position, 

then tighten it again. Close the front engine access cover. 

3. 

START

 

– Insert the generator key into the ignition switch (

C

) on th

control panel

, then rotate it right to 

the "START" position, to engage the starter motor. The engine should start. 

4. 

RUN

 

– Rotate the generator key left to remain in the "ON" position. 

 

 

                   

 

 

 

 

 

If the engine does not start, repeat step 2 onward. If the engine fails to start after several attempts, refer to 

Troubleshooting

.  

Jump Starting 

If the battery does not have enough charge to sufficiently crank the engine, the engine can be jump-started. 
Use a fully charged battery (the "jump" battery) and suitable jump-starting cables. To jump-start: 

1.  Ensure the ignition is OFF (for some models, this is the position that allows the key to be removed). 

2.  Connect the jump battery 

POSITIVE

 ("

+

") terminal to the engine battery 

POSITIVE

 ("

+

") terminal. 

3.  Connect the jump battery 

NEGATIVE

 ("

-

") terminal to the engine battery 

NEGATIVE

 ("

-

") terminal. 

4.  Follow th

normal start procedure

 from step 1 onward.
