Oxygenated Fuels
Some gasoline is blended with alcohol or an ether compound to increase the octane. This gasoline
is collectively referred to as oxygenated fuels. Some areas of the United States use oxygenated
fuels to help meet clean air standards. If you use an oxygenated fuel, be sure its pump octane
rating is 86 or higher.
Ethanol (ethyl or grain alcohol)
Gasoline containing more than 10% ethanol by volume may cause starting or performance
pro
blems. Gasoline containing ethanol may be marketed under the name “Gasohol".
Methanol (methyl or wood alcohol)
Gasoline containing methanol must contain solvents and corrosion inhibitors to protect the fuel
system. Gasoline containing more than 5% methanol by volume may cause starting and/or
performance problems and may damage metal, rubber and plastic parts of your fuel system.
MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether)
You may use gasoline containing up to 15% MTBE by volume. Before using an oxygenated fuel,
tr
y to confirm the fuel’s contents. Some states (provinces in Canada) require this information to be
posted on the pump. If you notice any undesirable operating symptoms, switch to a conventional
unleaded gasoline. Fuel system damage or performance problems resulting from the use of an
oxygenated fuel are not ours responsibility and are not covered under warranty.
NOTICE
Oxygenated fuels can damage paint and plastic. Be careful not to spill fuel when filling your
fuel tank. Damage caused by spilled fuel is not covered under warranty.
7. STARTING/STOPPING THE ENGINE
7.1 STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Make sure that the AC circuit breaker is in the OFF position. The generator may be hard to start
if a load is connected.
2. Turn the fuel valve to the ON position.
3. Turn the choke lever or to the CLOSE position, or pull the choke rod out to the CLOSE position.
4. Start the engine
• With recoil starter:
Turn the engine switch to the ON position.
Pull the starter grip until compression is felt, then pull briskly.
NOTICE
Do not allow the starter grip to snap back against the engine. Return it gently to prevent
damage to the starter or housing.
• With electric starter: (Optional kit)
Turn the engine switch to the START position and hold it there for 5 seconds or until the engine
starts.
NOTICE
Operating the starter motor for more than 5 seconds can damage the motor. If the engine
fails to start, release the switch and wait 10 seconds before operating the starter again. If
the speed of the starter motor drops after a period of time, it indicates that the battery
should be recharged.
When the engine starts, allow the engine switch to return to the ON position.
1. Turn the choke lever or push the choke rod to the OPEN position as the engine warms up.
