GENERATOR PREPARATION
Grounding Nut
NOTE: After completing the above preparation, the generator is ready to be started.
Step 2 - ADD GASOLINE
Use fresh (within 30 days from purchase), lead-free gasoline
with a minimum of 87 octane rating. Do not mix oil with gaso-
line. Adding a fuel stabalizer will help prolong the storage life
of the gasoline.
To add gasoline, follow these steps:
1. Make sure the generator is on a level surface.
2. Unscrew gas cap and set aside.

WARNING:
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.
IMPORTANT:
• Never use an oil/gasoline mixture.
• Never use old gasoline.
• Avoid getting dirt or water into the fuel
tank.
• Gasoline can age in the tank and make
starting difficult. Never store generator
for extended periods of time with fuel
in the tank.
WARNING
: Failure to properly ground the generator increases your risk of electric
shock.
NOTE: The fuel cap may be tight and hard to unscrew.
3. Slowly add unleaded gasoline to the fuel tank. Be careful not to over-
fill. The capacity of the fuel tank is .69 gallons (2.6 L).
NOTE: Do not fill the fuel tank to the very top. Gasoline will expand and
spill over during use even with the fuel cap in place.
4. Reinstall fuel cap and wipe clean any spilled gasoline with a dry cloth.
STEP 3 - GROUND THE GENERATOR
Ground the generator by tightening the grounding nut on the front
control panel against a grounding wire (Fig. 3). A generally acceptable
grounding wire is a No. 12 AWG (American Wire Gauge) stranded cop-
per 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.
Grounding codes can vary by location. Contact a local electrician to
check the area codes.
