STARTING THE GENERATOR
DANGER: POISONOUS GAS. Generators give off carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas that
can kill you quickly. You CANNOT smell it, see it, or taste it.

ONLY run generator outdoors and away from air intakes, open windows, and garages.

Never use inside homes, garages, or sheds, EVEN IF you run a fan or open doors and
windows.
If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using the generator, shut it off and get to fresh air
RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may have carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING: This generator produces powerful voltage, which can result in electrocution.
 ALWAYS ground the generator before using it (see the ¡Ground the Generator¡ portion
of the ¡PREPARING THE GENERATOR FOR USE¡ section).
 Generator should only be plugged into electrical devices, either directly or with an
extension cord. NEVER connect to a building electrical system without a qualified
electrician. Such connections must comply with local electrical laws and codes. Failure to
comply can create a backfeed, which may result in serious injury or death to utility
workers.
 Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in highly conductive areas such as metal
decking or steel work. GFCIs are available in-line with some extension cords.
 Do not use in rainy or wet conditions.
 Do not touch bare wires or receptacles (outlets).
Do not allow children or non-qualified persons to operate.
CAUTION: Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator before attempting to start.
To start your generator, perform the following steps:
1. Make sure no electrical devices are connected to the generator. Such devices can make it
difficult for the engine to start.
2. Check that the generator is properly grounded (see ¡Ground the Generator¡).
3. Turn the fuel valve to the ¡on¡ position (see figure 4).
4. Move the choke lever to the ¡closed¡ positio n (see figure 5).
5. Set the engine switch to the ¡on¡ position.
6. ( Optional: Set the idle switch to the ¡on¡ position .)
7. Pull on the recoil starter handle slowly until a slight resistance is felt (see figure 6). Then pull
quickly to start the engine. Return cord gently into the machine. Never allow the cord to snap
back.
8. If engine fails to start, repeat step 6. NOTE: After repeated failed attempts to start the engine,
please consult the troubleshooting guide before attempting again.
9. Once the engine has started move the choke lever about half way towards the ¡open¡ position.
Wait 30 seconds and then move the choke lever all the way to the ¡open¡ position.
10. Allow the generator to run for several minutes before attempting to connect any electrical
devices.
