STOPPING THE GENERATOR
Normal Operation
During normal operation, use the following steps to
stop your generator:
1. Remove any connected loads from the control
panel receptacles.
2. Allow the generator to run at “no load” to reduce
and stabilize engine and alternator temperatures.
3. If you are operating on gas move the fuel shut off
valve to
OFF
. If you are operating on propane shut
off the tank valve. Wait for engine to shut off due to
lack of fuel.
4. Position the engine control switch to
STOP
.
During an Emergency
If there is an emergency and the generator must be
stopped quickly, position the electric start switch to the
STOP
position immediately.
WARNING
Internal pressure can build in the engine
crankcase while the engine is running.
Removing the oil fill plug/ dipstick while
the engine is hot can cause extremely
hot oil to spray out of the crankcase and
can severely burn skin. Allow engine
oil to cool for several minutes before
removing the oil fill plug/dipstick.
Always perform maintenance in a well-
ventilated area. Gasoline fuel and fuel
vapors are extremely flammable and can
ignite under certain conditions.
WARNING
Avoid accidentally starting the
generator during maintenance by
removing the spark plug boot from
the spark plug. For electric start
generators, also disconnect the
battery cables from the battery
(disconnect the black negative (-)
cable first) and place the cables away
from the battery posts to avoid arcing.
Allow hot components to cool to
the touch prior to performing any
maintenance procedure.
