WIRELESS REMOTE
Wireless remote starting is only possible within 78’ (24 m) of the generator.

Do not attempt to adjust the carburetor choke. The remote system will automatically close

and open the choke.

1. Make certain the generator is on a flat, level surface.

2. Turn off all electrical loads connected to the generator. Never start or stop the generator

     with electrical devices plugged in and turned on.

3. Turn the fuel valve to the “ON” position.

4. Press the battery switch to “ON”.

5. Press the engine switch to “ON”. 

  • WIRELESS REMOTE START: press and release the “START” button on the handheld 

remote control device. DO NOT hold the button down, only press the button once. The 

engine will attempt to start six times.

A safety feature is provided which delays the electrical power availability during starting

mode. The delay lasts for approximately 15 seconds. The delay is provided to prevent

damage to the generator if electrical loads are inadvertently turned on during engine startup.
When the battery switch is in the “ON” position, the switch will light up if the battery is

sending out a charge. If the switch does not light up while in the “ON” position, check that the

battery connection is still good.

ELECTRIC START AND RECOIL START
1. Make certain the generator is on a flat, level surface.

2. Turn off all electrical loads connected to the generator. Never start or stop the generator

     with electrical devices plugged in and turned on.

3. Turn the fuel valve to the “ON” position.

4. Press the ignition switch to “ON”.

5. Move the choke lever to the “CHOKE” position.

  • ELECTRIC START: Press the battery switch to “ON.” Press and hold the ignition 

switch to the “START” position. Release as the engine begins to roll over. If the engine 

fails to start within five seconds, release the switch and wait at least ten seconds before 

attempting to start the engine again.

  • RECOIL START: Pull the starter cord slowly until resistance is felt and then pull 

rapidly.

6. Do not over-choke. As as soon as engine starts, move the choke lever to the “RUN”

    position.

Keep choke lever in “CHOKE” position for only 1 push cycle of the ignition button or 1 pull 

of the recoil starter. After first pull, move  choke lever to the “RUN” position for up to the 

next 3 pulls of the recoil starter. Too much choke leads to spark plug fouling/engine flooding 

due to the lack of incoming air. This will cause the engine not to start.

If the engine starts but does not continue to run make certain that the generator is on a flat,

level surface. The engine is equipped with a low oil sensor that will prevent the engine from

running when the oil level falls below a critical threshold.

!

 

  NOTE: The supplied 12 V, 9 Ah battery does re-charge 

while the engine is running, but it is also recommended that 

the battery be fully charged at least once per month.
