Place on an even surface to correct this. If engine fails to start, the oil level may not be
sufficient to deactivate low oil level sensor. Add oil as described in previous section.
ADDING PETROL
1. Move the generator
OUTSIDE
and place on a flat and level surface.
2. Remove the petrol tank cap. Carefully add 87 Octane (or higher) grade petrol to
the tank. DO NOT OVERFILL. Leave room for the petrol to expand.
3. Replace and hand tighten petrol cap and wipe off any spilled petrol.
•
DO NOT
overfill petrol tank. Slowly add unleaded petrol
(A)
to petrol tank
(B)
.Use
extreme caution not to fill petrol above baffle
(C)
. This allow appropriate space for
petrol expansion.
Petrol and petrol vapor are extremely flammable and
explosive.Fire or explosion from misuse of petrol can cause
severe burns and even death.
Failure to use petrol as recommended in this manual will void the warranty.
WHEN ADDING PETROL TO GENERATOR, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
•
Turn generator
OFF
and let it cool for at least two minutes before removing petrol
cap. Loosen petrol cap slowly to release pressure.
•
Keep petrol away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat and other ignition
sources.
•
DO NOT
light a cigarette or smoke near open petrol tank or container.
•
Clean area around petrol fill cap and slowly remove cap to allow any pressure to
escape.
•
Install petrol cap and allow any spilled petrol to evaporate before starting engine.
DO NOT
over tighten handles on generator frame. Handles
must be allowed to move up and down with ease but not too loose as to rattle
during operation of the generator.
PREPARING THE GENERATOR
Improper treatment of generator can damage internal
components and shorten the life of unit.
ADDING ENGINE OIL
1. Move the generator
OUTSIDE
and place on a flat and level surface.
2. Remove the engine oil dip stick and place funnel in the oil reservoir.
3. Pour the supplied engine oil (10W 30) until oil level reaches
the threads inside the oil reservoir.
4. Hand tighten oil dip stick and wipe off any spilled oil.
Improper treatment of generator can damage it and shorten its life.
DO NOT attempt to start generator engine before proper servicing using
recommended engine oil. Failure to observe this precaution can result in
engine failure.
LOW OIL SENSOR AND LED DISPLAY
To prevent engine damage caused by an insufficient amount of oil in
the crankcase, this generator is equipped with low oil sensor. If the
oil is below the safe amount, the sensor will activate and will prevent
engine start-up or will stop the running engine.
If the engine oil level is below a safe level and you attempt
to start the engine, the LED display on the front panel of the generator will blink.
Add oil as described in previous section.
If generator shuts off and the oil level is within specifications, check to see if
generator is sitting at an angle that forces oil to shift.
