Moving the Generator
–
ALWAYS turn the generator off and ensure the fuel valve is
closed.
–
ALWAYS make sure engine and muffler are cooled down
before the generator can be handled safely (typically 15-30
minutes).

Lift unit up by the carrying handle and move to the desired
location.
–
Do not drop or strike unit or place under heavy objects.
–
Failure to follow these instructions could result in personal
injury or damage to the generator.
Operation at High Altitude
The density of air at high altitudes is lower than at sea level.
Engine power is reduced as the air mass and air-fuel ratio
decrease. Engine power and generator output will be reduced
approximately 3½% for every 1000 ft. of elevation above sea
level. At high altitudes increased exhaust emissions can also
result due to the increased enrichment of the air fuel ratio.
Other high altitude issues can include hard starting, increased
fuel consumption and spark plug fouling.
To alleviate high altitude issues other than the natural power
loss, CPE can provide a high altitude carburetor main jet.
The alternative main jet and installation instructions can be
obtained by contacting our Technical Support Team. Installation
instructions are also available in the Technical Bulletin area of
the CPE website.
The part number and recommended minimum altitude for the
application of the high altitude carburetor main jet is listed in
the following table.
In order to select the correct high altitude main jet it is
necessary to identify the carburetor model. For this purpose,
a code is stamped on the side of the carburetor. Select the
correct high altitude jet part number corresponding to the
carburetor code found on your particular carburetor.
WARNING
Operation using the alternative main jet at elevations lower
than the recommended minimum altitude can damage the
engine. For operation at lower elevations, the originally
supplied standard main jet must be used. Operating the
engine with the wrong engine configuration at a given
altitude may increase its emissions and decrease fuel
efficiency and performance.
MAINTENANCE
Make certain that the generator is kept clean and stored
properly. Only operate the unit on a flat, level surface in a clean,
dry operating environment. DO NOT expose the unit to extreme
conditions, excessive dust, dirt, moisture or corrosive vapors.
WARNING
Never operate a damaged or defective generator.
WARNING
Improper maintenance will void your warranty.
NOTICE

understand your responsibilities for service as stated in the
Emission Control Warranty Statement of this manual.
The owner/operator is responsible for all periodic maintenance.
Complete all scheduled maintenance in a timely manner.
Correct any issue before operating the generator.
