Petrol and petrol fumes arc highly flammable.
• Do not fill tank near an open flame.
• Always allow engine to cool for several minutes before
refueling.
• Do not overfill (check the "Specifications" section for the
tank capacity). Always check for fuel spills.
• Use only UNLEADED petrol with an octane rating of 93
or higher.
• Do not use old fuel.
• Never use an oil/petrol mixture.
• Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.
• Never store generator for extended periods of time with
fuel in the tank.
IMPORTANT!
CAUTION!
AC USAGE
CHECK THE OIL
WARNING!
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.
3. Turn the fuel valve to the "on" position (Fig. 3).
4. Move the choke lever to the "closed" position (Fig. 4).
5. Set the engine key switch to “ON” position (Fig. 5).
6. Turn "AC " switch to "OFF", to ensure there is no load
when start the engine (Fig. 6).
6. Pull on the recoil starter handle slowly until a slight
resistance is felt (Fig. 7).
Then pull quickly to start the engine. Return cord gently
into the machine. Never allow the cord to snap back.
7. If engine fails to start, repeat step 4.
NOTE:
After repeated attempts to start the engine, please
consult the troubleshooting guide before
attempting again.
CAUTION!
CHECK THE FUEL LEVEL
1. Turn the fuel lever to the "ON" position (Fig. 3).
2. Move the choke lever to the "closed" position. (Fig. 4)
3. Turn the "AC" switch to "OFF" position, to ensure there is
no load when start the engine. (Fig. 6)
4. Turn the engine key switch past "ON" to “Start”. (Fig. 9)
5. Allow the engine to run until it warms up, then return
choke lever. (Fig. 8)
6. Plug in the power cord and switch the “AC” switch to "ON".
(Fig. 10)
Once you have allowed the engine to run for several minutes,
you may connect electrical devices to the generator.
You may connect electrical devices running on AC current
according to their wattage requirements.
The Rated power corresponds to the maximum wattage the
generator can output on a continuous basis.
The Max. output wattage corresponds to the maximum
amount of power the generator can output for a short period
of time. Many electrical devices such as refrigerators require
short bursts of extra power, in addition the rated wattage
listed by the device, to stop and start their motors.
The Max. output ability of the generator covers this extra
power requirement.
The total running wattage requirement of the electrical
devices connected to the generator should not exceed the
Rated power of the generator itself. To calculate the total
wattage requirement of the electrical devices you wish to
connect, find the rated (or running) wattage of each device.
This number should be listed somewhere on the device or in
its instruction manual. If you cannot find this wattage, you
may calculate it by multiplying the Voltage requirement by
the Amperage drawn: Watts= Volts × Amperes.
Once you have found the rated wattage requirement of each
electrical device, add these numbers to find the total rated
wattage you wish to draw from the generator. If this number
exceeds the rated wattage of the generator, DO NOT connect
all these device, select a combination of electrical devices,
which has a total rated wattage lower than or equal to the
rated power of the generator.
Take your hand off the engine key switch immediately
after the engine starts.If the engine fails to start, release
the switch, wait a few seconds, then try again. Each
attempt should be as short as possible to preserve the
battery. Do not crank the engine more than 10 seconds
on any attempt.
The generator is equipped with an automatic shutoff to
protect it from damage due to low oil. Nonetheless, you
should check the oil level of the engine before each use to
ensure that the engine crankcase has a sufficient amount.
To check the oil level:
1. Make sure the generator is on a level surface.
2. Unscrew the oil filler/dipstick cap.
3. With a dry cloth, wipe the oil off of the stick on the inside
of the cap.
4. Insert the dipstick as if you were replacing the cap and
then remove again. There should now be oil on the stick.
If there is no oil on the stick, or oil only at the very end of
the stick, you should add oil until the engine crankcase is
filled.
5. Be sure to replace cap when finished checking oil.
Before starting the generator, check to see that there is
sufficient petrol in the fuel tank. The fuel gauge on top of
the generator will indicate the fuel level in the tank. Add fuel
if necessary.

8. Once the engine has started and run for about a minute,
move the choke lever about half way towards the "open"
position. Wait another 30 seconds and then move the
choke lever all the way to the "open" position. (Fig. 8)
9. Allow the generator to run for several minutes before
attempting to connect any electrical devices.
NOTE:
To protect battery please use manual start after long
time storage.
