
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 13.
 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.
OXyGENATED FUELS
DO NOT USE E85 FUEL. IT WILL VOID yOUR WAR-
RANTy.
NOTE:
Fuel system damage or performance problems
resulting 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.
OPERATION
REMOVABLE CONTROL PANEL
See Figure 14.
The removable control panel can be wall-mounted and con-
nected to the generator with the 25-ft. control panel cord
(Model # RDEC25) provided with the product.
The generator can be turned OFF from the removable control
panel or the off switch on the unit.
NOTE: You must push the off switch and hold it until the
engine has fully stopped.
The removable control panel has two 120 Volt duplex GFCI
power outlets with outlet covers. Each duplex outlet has a
Test and a Reset push button.
NOTE: The GFCI outlets may be shown without their covers
for clearer instruction of this feature’s operation.
Use only with RDEC25 control panel cord. Do not exceed
separation length of 75 ft. or a combination of three RDEC25
control panel cords.
GENERATOR CONTROL PANEL
See Figure 14.
The stationary control panel has a twist-lock 240 Volt outlet
and circuit breakers.
GenSmart
™
MONITORING SySTEM
See Figure 15.
The GenSmart
™
monitoring system has the following features:
Load Indicator
Measures the wattage output of the 2 x 120 Volt duplex GFCI
outlets located on the removable control panel. GenSmart
™
monitors the load only for the 120 Volt GFCI outlets on the
removable control panel. It does not measure load on the
240 Volt, 30 Amp outlet. The GenSmart
™
indicator measures
up to 4,800 watts of the generator’s rated wattage.
NOTE:
If the 240 Volt receptacle is in use, the load indicated
on the display will not accurately reflect the exact percentage
of load being drawn from the generator.
Hour Meter
The digital hour meter operates whenever the engine is run-
ning and keeps track of how many hours the unit has been
used. Use this meter along with the accompanying engine
manual to determine when and what type of service on the
unit is needed.
