starting the generator.
Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator. Use the
following start instructions:
1. Make sure unit is on a level surface.
IMPORTANT: Failure to start and operate the unit on a level
surface will cause the unit not to start or shut down during
operation.
2. Turn the fuel valve ( A ) to the “ On ” position.
3. Make sure idle control switch is in “ Off ” position.
4. Set run/stop switch to “ Run ” position.
5. Pull choke control out to close choke.
6A. For electric starting , push and hold the start switch in
“
Start
” position until generator starts. To prolong the
life of starter components, DO NOT hold start switch in
“
Start
” position for more than 15 seconds, and pause
for at least 1 minute between starting attempts.
• If engine starts, proceed to step 8.
• If engine fails to start, proceed to step 7.
NOTE: If battery is discharged, use manual starting instructions.
6B.
For manual starting
, grasp recoil handle and pull
slowly until slight resistance is felt. Then pull rapidly
one time only to start engine.
• If engine starts, proceed to step 8.
• If engine fails to start, proceed to step 7.

in and crank until engine starts.
NOTE:
If engine starts after 3 pulls but fails to run, or if unit

surface and check for proper oil level in crankcase. This unit
may be equipped with a low oil protection device. If so, oil
must be at proper level for engine to start.

after starting.
2. Plug in and turn on the desired 120 and / or 240 Volt
AC, single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads.
NOTE:
• DO NOT connect 240 Volt loads to the 120 Volt duplex
receptacles.
WARNING
Contact with muffler area can result in serious
burns.
Exhaust heat / gases can ignite combustibles,
structures or damage fuel tank causing a fire.
• DO NOT touch hot parts and AVOID hot exhaust gases.
• Allow equipment to cool before touching.
• Keep at least 5 feet (1.5 m) of clearance on all sides of
generator including overhead.
• Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) Title 36 Parks, Forests, and
Public Property require equipment powered by an internal
combustion engine to have a spark arrester, maintained in
effective working order, complying to USDA Forest service
standard 5100-1C or later revision. In the State of California a
spark arrester is required under section 4442 of the California
Public resources code. Other states may have similar laws.
A
WARNING
Starter cord kickback (rapid retraction) can result
in bodily injury. Kickback will pull hand and arm
toward engine faster than you can let go.
Broken bones, fractures, bruises, or sprains
could result.
• When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt and
then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.
• NEVER start or stop engine with electrical devices plugged in
and turned on.
