After completing the above preparation, the generator is ready to be started.
GENERATOR PREPARATION
STEP 4 - GROUND 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 front control panel (Fig. 10) 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.
WARNING! Failure to properly ground the generator increases your risk of electric shock.
HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION ABOVE 2000 FEET
The fuel system on this generator may be affected by operation at high altitudes. Proper operation can be ensured by
installing an altitude kit at altitudes higher than 2000 feet above sea level. At elevations above 7000 feet, the engine
may experience a decrease in performance, even with the proper altitude kit. Operating this generator without said
kit may increase the engine’s emissions and decrease both fuel economy and performance.
This kit should be installed by a qualified mechanic. You can order the kit at
wenproducts.com by searching part
number DF1100-HA27. Refer to the instructions included with your altitude kit for more information about instal-
lation.
WARNING!
To prevent serious injury from fire, follow the kit installation procedures in a well-ventilated
area away from ignition sources. If the engine is hot from use, shut the engine off and wait for it to cool before
proceeding. Do not smoke near the generator. Warranty will be void if adjustments are not made for high altitude
use.
CAUTION: Engines with the high-altitude kit installed operated at lower altitudes could cause severe engine dam-
age and affect emissions compliance. Be sure to uninstall the high altitude kit when operating at altitudes below
2000 feet.
