Connecting Electrical Loads Figure
1
Use only high quality, well-insulated extension cables with the generator’s AC outlets.
Inspect extension cables before each use. Check that all extension cables are suitably
rated and are not damaged.
1. Let engine stabilize and warm up for a few minutes after starting.
2. Check the voltmeter ( H ) for proper voltage.
3. Make sure the load of the electrical device is within the generator’s rated output.
NOTICE Receptacles may be marked with rating value greater than generator output
capacity.
• NEVER attempt to power a device requiring more amperage than the generator or
receptacle can supply.
• DO NOT overload the generator. See Generator Capacity.
4. Make sure the electrical device is turned off. Then connect the electrical device
to the generator’s AC outlet ( F ). After the electrical device is connected, turn on
the electrical device.
5. When connecting additional electrical devices, make sure the total load does
not exceed the generator’s wattage capacity. See Specifications section.
NOTICE Do not exceed the generator’s wattage capacity. Exceeding the wattage
capacity could damage generator and/or connected electrical devices.
6. Before stopping the engine, turn off and then disconnect all electrical devices.
Stopping the Engine Figure
8 9
1. Before stopping the engine, turn off and then disconnect all electrical devices.
2. Let engine run at no-load for several minutes to stabilize internal temperatures
of engine and generator.
3. Turn fuel valve to the off ( ) position.
4. Electric Start: Turn the electric start switch ( T ) to the off ( ) position.
Oil Level Switch and Warning Light Figure
1
If the oil level is too low, a switch will stop the engine and activate a warning light ( U )
on the generator. If the oil level is too low when starting the engine, the switch will
activate the warning light. If the warning light is activated, make sure the unit is on a
level surface and check for proper oil level. See the How to Check/Add Oil section.
If the oil level is below the ADD mark, add oil until it reaches the FULL mark. Start the
engine and check for oil leaks before continuing to operate.
If the oil level is between the ADD and FULL marks,
do not start the engine. See a
Briggs & Stratton Authorized Dealer to have the engine inspected.
WARNING Damaged or overloaded electrical cables could overheat, arc, and
burn resulting in death, serious injury, and/or property damage.
• ONLY use suitably rated extension cables.
• Follow all safety instructions on extension cables.
• Inspect cables before each use.
WARNING Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive which
could cause burns, fire or explosion resulting in death,
serious injury and/or property damage.
• DO NOT stop engine by moving choke control to “ Choke ” position ( ).
WARNING
Generator voltage could cause electrical shock or burn resulting
in death or serious injury.
• Use approved transfer equipment to prevent backfeed by isolating generator from
electric utility workers.
• When using generator for backup power, notify utility company.
• Use a residual-current device (RCD) in any damp or highly conductive area, such
as metal decking or steel work.
• DO NOT touch bare wires or receptacles.
• DO NOT use generator with electrical cords which are worn, frayed, bare or
otherwise damaged.
• DO NOT operate generator in the rain or wet weather.
• DO NOT handle generator or electrical cords while standing in water, while
barefoot, or while hands or feet are wet.
• DO NOT allow unqualified persons or children to operate or service generator.
