ADD FUEL
Page 13
Fuel must meet these requirements:
•
Clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline.
Use regular UNLEADED gasoline with the
generator engine with a minimum 87 octane
/ 87 AKI (91 RON).
For high altitude use, see "Operation at High
Altitude".
Do not use gasoline with more than 10%
alcohol such as E85 or ethanol.
•
•
Failure to follow Operator's Manual for fuel
recommendations voids warranty.
Avoid generator damage.
DO NOT use unapproved gasoline such as E85.
DO NOT mix oil in gasoline.
DO NOT modify engine to run on alternate fuels.

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.
WHEN ADDING FUEL
Fill fuel tank outdoors.
DO NOT overfill tank. Allow space for fuel
expansion. If the tank is overfilled, fuel
can overflow onto a hot engine and cause fire
or explosion. Wipe up any spilled fuel
immediately.
If fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before
starting engine.
Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames,
pilot lights, heat, and other ignition sources.
Check fuel lines, tank, cap and fittings
frequently for cracks or leaks. Replace if
necessary.
DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke when
filling the fuel tank.

•
1.Clean area around fuel fill cap, remove cap.
2.Slowly add unleaded fuel to fuel tank. Be
careful not to fill above the red fuel level
indicator . This allows adequate space for
fuel expansion.
3.Install fuel cap and let any spilled fuel
evaporate before starting engine or wipe up
any spilled gasoline.
CAUTION
Slowly add unleaded gasoline to fuel tank.
Do not overfill tank.
Do not fill above top of fuel screen. This
will all expansion in hot weather and
prevent overflow.

Operation at High Altitude
At altitudes over 5,000 feet(1524 meters), a
minimum 85 octane / 85 AKI (89 RON) gasoline
is acceptable.
The
density of air at high altitude 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 3.5% for every 1000 feet
of elevation above sea level . This is a
natural trend and cannot be changed by
adjusting the engine . 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 , FIRMAN can provide a high
altitude carburetor main jet . The alternative
