Stopping the Engine
• Unplug all electrical loads from generator panel
receptacles. Never start or stop engine with
electrical devices plugged in and turned on.
• Put the idle control switch in the “Off” position.
• Let engine run at no–load for 30 seconds to
stabilize the internal temperatures of engine and
generator.
• Move Run/Stop switch to “Stop ” position.
• Close the fuel shut–off valve.
Operating Automatic Idle Control
This switch is designed to greatly improve fuel
economy. When this switch is turned ON , the
engine will only run at its normal high governed
engine speed when an electrical load is connected.
When electrical loads are removed, the engine will
run at a reduced speed. With the switch off , the
engine runs at its normal constant speed. Always
have the switch OFF when starting and stopping
the engine.
Cold Weather Operation
Under certain weather conditions (temperatures
below 40°F [4°C] and a high dew point), your
generator may experience icing of the carburetor
and/or the crankcase breather system.
In an emergency, use the original shipping box as a
temporary shelter:
• Cut off all flaps.
• Cut out one of the long sides of the box to expose
exhaust side of unit. Ensure a minimum of two feet
clearance between open side of box and nearest
object.
• Cut appropriate slots to access receptacles of unit.
• Start unit, then place box over it.
IMPORTANT !: Remove shelter when temperature is
above 40°F [4°C].
For a more permanent shelter, build a structure that
will enclose three sides and the top of the generator:
• Make sure entire muffler-side of generator is
exposed, as shown in Figure 5.
• Ensure a minimum of two feet clearance between
open side of box and nearest object.
• Face exposed end away from wind and elements.
• Enclosure should hold enough heat created by the
generator to prevent icing problem.
CAUTION
: NEVER run unit indoors. Do Not
enclose generator any more than shown.
Remove shelter when temperatures are above
40°F [4°C].
