NOTE:
LOW IDLE minimizes fuel consumption and noise by
adjusting the engine speed (RPM) to the minimum
required for the current load. Turn LOW IDLE Switch
to ON position when powering small appliances with
continuous loads such as a computer or electric light.
Turn LOW IDLE Switch to OFF position when
powering large surge loads such as an air conditioner
or electric pump. Be certain that the OUTPUT READY
INDICATOR LED is illuminated green before turning
the switch to ON position. If no load is present, the
generator speed (RPM) will drop to idle speed. The
generator will detect loads as they are applied and
increase engine speed (RPM). To run the generator
at maximum power and speed (RPM), push the LOW
IDLE Switch to the OFF position.
Low Oil Shutdown
If the engine oil drops below a preset level, an oil
switch will stop the engine. Check oil level with
dipstick.
If oil level is between LOW and HIGH mark on
dipstick:
1.
DO NOT try to restart the engine.
2. Contact an Authorized Service Dealer.
3.
DO NOT operate engine until oil level is corrected.
If oil level is below LOW mark on dipstick:
1. Add oil to bring level to HIGH mark.
2. Restart engine and if the engine stops again a low
oil condition may still exist.

the engine.
