OPERATION OF THE GENERATOR

Always check the oil level and air filter before
starting the engine.  This unit is equipped with a
low oil system.

NOTE:
Do not allow the handle grip to snap back against
the engine.  Always return it gently to prevent
damage to the starter.

NOTE:
Allow generator to settle.  Run before connecting
any electrical loads or appliances.  Failure to do
so may result in generator damage!

   Connecting electrical loads

Let engine stabilize and warm up for at least 3
minutes.

Make sure devices to be connected are in good
working order and in the “OFF” position before
connecting to the generator.

Make sure to plug in desired devices into the
correct  receptacle.

DO NOT connect 240 Volt loads to the 120 Volt
duplex receptacles.

DO NOT connect 3 phase loads to the genera-
tor.

DO NOT connect 50 Hz loads to the generator.
This is a 60Hz system.

DO NOT overload the generator.  Add up the rated
Watts of all loads to be connected. This total
should not exceed the total watts of the genera-
tor.

   Stopping the engine

Turn off all electrical devices connected to the
generator.

WARNING:
DO NOT start or stop generator with electri-
cal devices plugged in.

Allow the generator engine to run at a ‘No Load’
condition for several minutes to stabilize inter-
nal engine temperature before stopping

   Generator maintenance

      (see maintenance table for list).

Keep the generator clean and dry. Use a damp
cloth to clean exterior surfaces. Remove caked
on dirt with a soft brush.

Never spray with water.  Water can contaminate
the engine fuel system and cause serious prob-
lems in the generator.

Damage  may occur if engine or carburetor clean-
ing products are used.

   Storage

IMPORTANT:

Empty fuel system if unit is to be stored for 30
days or more. This will help prevent gum depos-
its from forming in fuel system such as the car-
buretor,  fuel filter, fuel hose, and fuel tank during
storage.
