OPERATION
OXyGENATED FUELS
DO NOT USE E85 FUEL. IT WILL VOID yOUR WAR-
RANTy.
NOTE:
Fuel system damage or performance problems re-
sulting from the use of an oxygenated fuel containing more
than the percentages of oxygenates stated below
are not
covered under warranty.
Ethanol.
Gasoline containing up to 10% ethanol by volume
(commonly referred to as E10) or 15% ethanol by volume
(commonly referred to as E15) are acceptable. E85 is not.
CAUTION:
On a level surface with the engine off, check the lubricant
level before each use of the generator.
STARTING THE ENGINE
See Figures 9 - 11.
NOTE: If location of generator is not level, the unit may not
start or may shut down during operation.
 Unplug all loads from the generator.

Turn the fuel valve to the ON position.

Move the choke lever right to the START position.
NOTE: If engine is warm or the temperature is above
50˚F, move the choke lever left to the RUN position.

Put the engine switch in the ON ( I ) position.

Pull the recoil starting grip until the engine runs (a maxi-
mum of 6 times).
NOTE: Do not allow the grip to snap back after starting;
return it gently to its original place.

Allow the engine to run for 15 seconds, then move the
choke lever left to the RUN position.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
See Figures 9 - 10.
To stop the engine under normal operating conditions:

Remove any load from the generator.

Turn the fuel valve to the OFF position.

Put the engine switch in the OFF ( O ) position.
To stop the engine in an emergency situation:

Put the engine switch in the OFF ( O ) position.
NOTE: Non-detergent or 2-stroke engine lubricants will
damage the engine and should not be used.
 Unscrew the oil cap/dipstick and remove.

Wipe dipstick clean and re-seat in hole; do not re-
thread.
 Remove dipstick again and check lubricant level. Lubri-
cant level should fall between the hatched areas on the
dipstick.

If level is low, add engine lubricant until the fluid level rises
to the upper portion of the dipstick.
 Replace and secure the oil cap/dipstick.
CHECkING/ADDING FUEL
See Figure 8.

Remove the fuel cap.

Fill the fuel tank to 1 in. below the top of the fuel neck.

Replace and secure the fuel cap.
NOTE: Always use unleaded gasoline with a pump octane
rating of 86 or higher. Never use old, stale, or contaminated
gasoline, and do not use an oil/gas mixture. Do not allow dirt
or water into the fuel tank.
Do not use E85 fuel.
USING FUEL STABILIzER
Fuel gets old, oxidizes, and breaks down over time. Adding
a fuel stabilizer (not included) extends the usable life of fuel
and helps prevent deposits from forming that can clog the
fuel system. Follow fuel stabilizer manufacturer’s directions
for correct ratio of stabilizer to fuel.

Add stabilizer to fuel tank, then fill with gasoline following
previous instructions.
NOTE:
Fuel stabilizer and gasoline can be mixed prior
to filling the tank by using a gas can or other approved
fuel container and shaking gently to combine.

Replace and secure the fuel tank cap.

Start and run the engine for at least 5 minutes to allow
stabilizer to treat the entire fuel system.
