Operation
NOTE: THE PARTS LISTED ABOVE ARE HELPFUL FOR LOCATING THE
CONTROLS MENTIONED BELOW.
Before Starting the Generator
1. Check that the engine power switch is in its
Fuel tank capacity:25.0L(6.6 gallons)
“OFF” position.
2. Before the first use, remove the fuel
tank cap and fill the fuel tank with unleaded
gasoline. When fueling, be sure that the
fuel strainer is in place. Replace the fuel
tank cap. Thereafter, check the engine’s
fuel gauge for the amount of unleaded
gasoline in the fuel tank. If necessary,
refill the fuel tank with unleaded gasoline;
the generator must be turned off and
cooled down before refilling the fuel tank.
Upper Level
Use gasoline with a pump octane rating of 90 or higher.
We recommend unleaded gasoling because it produces
fewer engine and spark plug deposits and extends
exhaust system life. Never use stale or contaminated
gasoline or oil/gasoline mixture. Avoid getting dirt or
water in the fuel tank.
