2. Turn Fuel valve to the “ON” position.
3. Pull the choke valve switch to “ON” position.
When in cold engine status, turn the choke valve to
“ON” position, or turn it to “half-open” position when
in hot engine status. If the engine fails to start after
two attempts, fully open the choke then operate the
switch or recoil.

tarting Functions.
Electric Start
Turn and keep the key to “START” position till the
engine is started. After the engine is started, release
the key to return to “RUN” position
Manual Start
Turn the switch to “RUN” position. and then seize the
starter handle and slow pulling until there is a sense
of resistance, then quickly pull to start. If the starter
fails to start the engine, immediately turnc”OFF” the
starter. Do not attempt to restart the engine until the
failure cause is identified. Do not restart the engine
by replacement of other storage batteries without
authorisation.
DANGER
Beware of KICKBACK. Rapid retraction of the starter
cord will pull hand and arm towards the engine faster
than you can let go. Unintentional startup may result
in serious personal injury.
IMPORTANT
•
If the engine fails to start after 3 attempts or
flames out after starting, inspect and ensure
that the generator is placed on a flat horizontal
surface and that enough engine oil is at correct
level.
•
During starting, do not keep the starting switch
at “start” position for more than 5 seconds,
otherwise this may cause possible damage to
the starter motor. If the unit fails to start after
the first attempt, restart only after 1Oseconds
has passed.
•
During the operation of the unit, the storage
battery supplies power to the solenoid valve of
the carburettor. For this, when the unit is turned
off, make sure that the starting switch is in
“OFF” position, otherwise the storage battery
voltage is reduced due to the operating
solenoid valve of the carburettor, impacting on
starting for next time.
•
If the engine is equipped with an engine oil
alarm, it is possible that low oil will prevent the
engine from starting as it maybe lower than the
minimum level.
•
During running-in, routinely inspect the engine
oil. See maintenance section for recommended
maintenance period.
