!
WARNING
Pouring gasoline too fast through the fuel screen may result
in blow back of gasoline at the operator while filling.
"
NOTICE
Our engines work well with 10% or less ethanol blend
gasoline. When using ethanol-gasoline blends there are
some issues worth noting:
–
Ethanol-gasoline blends can absorb more water than
gasoline alone.
–
These blends can eventually separate, leaving water or a
watery goo in the tank, fuel valve and carburetor.
–
With gravity-fed supplies, the compromised gasoline can
be drawn into the carburetor and cause damage to the
engine and/or potential hazards.
–
There are only a few suppliers of fuel stabilizer that are
formulated to work with ethanol-gasoline blends.
–
Any damages or hazards caused by using improper
gasoline, improperly stored gasoline, and/or
improperly formulated stabilizers, are not covered by
manufacturer’s warranty.
Add Fuel: Propane (LPG)
Connecting an LPG cylinder
1. Make sure the fuel selection dial on the generator is in the
“OFF” position.
2. Attach the LPG hose (included) to the LPG inlet on the
generator and tighten with a 19 mm or adjustable wrench.
DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN. Important: DO NOT use thread
seal tape or any other type of sealant to seal LPG hose
connection.
3. Remove the safety plug or cap from the cylinder valve.
4. Attach the other end of the hose to the LPG connector on
the cylinder and hand tighten.
5. Check all connections for leaks by wetting the fittings with
a solution of soap and water. Bubbles which appear or
bubbles which grow indicate that a leak exists. If a leak
exists at a fitting then turn off the valve on the cylinder
and tighten the fitting. Turn the valve back on and recheck
the fitting with the soap and water solution. If the leak
continues or if the leak is not at a fitting then do not use
the generator and contact customer service.

NOTICE
–
Use only standard 20 or 30 pound capacity LPG
cylinders with type 1, right hand Acme threads.
–
Verify the requalification date on the cylinder has not
expired.
–
All new cylinders must be purged of air and moisture
prior to filling. Used cylinders that have not been plugged
or kept closed must also be purged.
–
The purging process should be done by an LPG supplier.
(cylinders from an exchange supplier should have been
purged and filled properly already).
–
Always position the cylinder so the connection between
the cylinder valve and generator inlet won’t cause sharp
bends or kinks in the LPG hose.
!
CAUTION
Do not allow children to tamper or play with the LPG cylinder
or hose connections.
!
CAUTION
Use approved LPG cylinders equipped with an OPD
(overfilling prevention device) valve. Always keep the
cylinder in a vertical position with the valve on top and
installed at ground level on a flat surface. Cylinders must
not be installed near any heat source and should not be
exposed to sun, rain, and dust. When transporting and
storing, turn off the cylinder valve and generator LPG valve,
and disconnect the cylinder. Plug the outlet, usually by a
plastic protective cap, if one is available. Keep cylinders
away from heat and ventilated when in a vehicle.
