ASSEMBLy
Add Fuel (Petrol)
1. Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded fuel with a
minimum octane rating of 85 and an ethanol
content of less than 10% by volume.
2. DO NOT mix oil with fuel.
3. Clean the area around the fuel cap.
4. Remove the fuel cap.
5. Slowly add fuel to the tank. DO NOT OVERFILL.
Fuel can expand after filling. A minimum of
1/4 in. (6.4 mm) of space left in the tank is required
for fuel expansion, more than 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) is
recommended. Fuel can be forced out of the tank as a
result of expansion if it is overfilled, and can affect the
stable running condition of the product. When filling
the tank, it is recommended to leave enough space for
the fuel to expand.
6. Screw on the fuel cap and wipe away any spilled
fuel.
Use regular unleaded petrol with a minimum octane
rating of 85.
Do not mix oil and petrol.
Fill tank to approximately 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) below
the top of the tank to allow for fuel expansion.
DO NOT pump petrol directly into the generator at
the petrol station. Use an approved container to
transfer the fuel to the generator.
DO NOT fill fuel tank indoors.
DO NOT fill fuel tank when the engine is running or hot.
DO NOT overfill the fuel tank.
DO NOT light cigarettes or smoke when filling the
fuel tank.
CAUTION
Pouring fuel too fast through the fuel screen may
result in blow back of fuel at the operator while filling.
WARNING
Our engines work well with 10% or less ethanol
blend fuels. When using blended fuels there are
some issues worth noting:
– Ethanol-petrol blends can absorb more water
than petrol alone.
– These blends can eventually separate, leaving
water or a watery goo in the tank, fuel valve and
carburetor.
– With gravity-fed fuel supplies, this compromised
fuel 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 blend
fuels.
– Any damages or hazards caused by using
improper fuel, improperly stored fuel, and/
or improperly formulated stabilizers, are not
covered by manufacture’s warranty.
It is advisable to always shut off the fuel supply,
run the engine to fuel starvation and drain the tank
when the equipment is not in use for more than 30
days.
NOTE
Add Fuel Cont’d.
ASSEMBLy
Do not allow children to tamper or play with the
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 fuel 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.
CAUTION
Connecting LPG Cylinder Cont’d.
Grounding
Your generator must be properly connected to an
appropriate ground to help prevent electric shock.
A ground terminal connected to the frame of the generator
has been provided on the power panel. For remote
grounding, connect of a length of heavy gauge
(12 AWG minimum) copper wire between the generator
ground terminal and a copper rod driven into the ground.
We strongly recommend that you consult with a qualified
electrician to ensure compliance with local electrical codes.
Failure to properly ground the generator can result
in electric shock.
WARNING
– Use only standard 20 or 30 pound capacity LP
tanks with Type 1, right hand Acme threads.
– Verify the requalification date on the tank 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 a LPG
supplier. (Cylinders from an exchange supplier
should have been purged and filled properly
already).
– Always position the cylinder so the connection
between the valve and the gas inlet won’t cause
sharp bends or kinks in the hose.
NOTE
Connecting the Propane (LPG) Cylinder
1. Make sure the fuel selector switch on the inverter is
in the 12 o’clock (vertical) position. (A)
2. Using your fingers, slide the outer barrel back on
the LPG quick connect hose fitting (B).
3. While the outer barrel is in the back position, insert
the LPG hose (included) into the inlet and release
the outer barrel. The barrel will automatically return
and lock the hose in the inlet.
4. Remove the safety plug or cap from the cylinder
valve.
5. Attach the other end of the hose to the LPG
cylinder and hand tighten.
6. 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 gas valve at the tank and tighten the fitting.
Turn the gas 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.
If there is a strong smell of gas: Close off the gas
supply at the cylinder. Use soapy water, which will
produce a large bubble at the point of any leak, to
check the hose, and connections on the cylinder valve
and the generator. Do not smoke or light a cigarette,
or check for leaks using a match, open flame source
or lighter. Contact a qualified technician to inspect
and repair the LPG system if a leak is found, before
using the generator.
