STEP 2: FILLING THE FUEL TANK
WARNING:
Keep generator away from open flame. This generator may emit highly flammable and
explosive gasoline vapors, which can cause severe burns or even death if ignited. A nearby open flame
can lead to explosion even if not directly in contact with gasoline.
• Do not operate near open flame.
• Do not smoke near the generator.
• Always operate on a firm, level surface.
• Always turn generator off before refueling. Allow generator to cool for at least 2 minutes before re-
moving fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve pressure in tank.
• Do not overfill fuel tank. Fuel may expand during operation. Do not fill to the top of the tank. Allow for
expansion.
• Always check for spilled fuel before operating. Clean up any spilled fuel before starting.
• Empty fuel tank before storing or transporting the generator to prevent spilling.
1. Clean the area around the fuel fill cap and remove the fuel fill
cap.
2. Using the gasoline/oil mixture mixed in the previous step, slowly
add the fuel into the tank. The fuel tank capacity is 1 gallon.
DO NOT overfill the fuel tank - check the maximum fuel level shown
in Fig. 2. Leave space for fuel expansion.
3. Replace the fuel fill cap and wipe up any spilled fuel.
GENERATOR PREPARATION
After completing the above preparation, the generator is ready to be started.
STEP 3 - GROUNDING THE GENERATOR
To reduce the risk of electric shock and to maximize safety,
the generator should be properly grounded. Ground the
generator by tightening the grounding nut on the left of the
generator (Fig. 3) against a grounding wire. A generally
acceptable grounding wire is a
No. 12 AWG (American Wire
Gauge) stranded copper wire.
This grounding wire should be connected at the other end
to a copper, brass, or steel-grounding rod that is driven into
the earth. Wire and grounding rods are not included with the
generator.

NOTE:
Grounding codes can vary by location. Contact a local electrician to check the area codes.
