The below assumes that the propane fuel line is already
attached to the generator securely and safely.
While the unit is running simply turn the
FUEL SELECTOR
knob to the desired fuel source. If you want to switch from
gasoline to propane make sure the propane tank valve is
open before you switch. When you move from propane to
gasoline shut the propane valve after you have switched
to gas.
NOTICE
If you do not plan on operating the unit on propane do not leave
the propane tank valve open.
When starting on propane the engine may run rough for a few
seconds while it purges gasoline in the carburetor.
If the engine fails when switching fuel sources simply restart the
unit on the fuel source that you switched to.
