When moving the fuel line from one port to the other be
sure not to kink or bend the line. Use as large a sweeping
curve as possible and never shorten the fuel line. For
proper operation the fuel line must stay the same length
as it was shipped.
LUBRICATION
Before starting the engine, check the crankcase refill with
the proper weight/grade of oil, as recommended by the
engine manufacturer’s maintenance instructions. The
necessity of using the correct oil, and keeping the
crankcase full cannot be over emphasized. Do Not
Overfill the Engine Use the Dipstick.
INSTALLING THE BATTERY
**** CAUTION ****
In the following battery installation procedure, check to be
sure the selector switch remains in the “stop” position.
This should be your last step before initial start-up.
A customer supplied twelve-volt battery is required to
complete the installation. Installation of the highest CCA
rated battery, within the correct BCI group, will increase
cold weather starting performance. Gel batteries should
not be used with the battery tender installed in the
generator enclosure.

Installation and servicing of batteries must be performed
or supervised only by personnel knowledgeable of
batteries and the required precautions. Keep unautho-
rized personnel away from batteries.
When installing or replacing batteries, use the proper
group/size starting battery. The battery should be a
Maintenance Free lead acid design. Deep cycle batteries
will not work for this application.
CAUTION – PERSONAL DANGER
CAUTION - NEVER dispose of a battery in a fire. The
battery is capable of exploding.
CAUTION - DO NOT open or mutilate the battery.
Released electrolyte is known to be harmful to the skin
and eyes and to be very toxic.
These engine generator sets are all NEGATIVE ground.
Be very careful not to connect the battery in reverse
polarity, as this may short circuit the battery charging
system on the engine.
CAUTION – A battery presents a risk of electrical shock
and high short circuit current. The following precautions
must be observed when working with batteries.
1. Remove watches, rings and other metal objects.
2. Use tools with insulated handles.
3. Check both the battery cable ends and the battery
posts to be sure they are free of corrosion.
3. Always connect the battery positive cable first and
then connect the battery negative cable. When
removing the battery cables from the battery reverse the
procedure, disconnect the negative cable first and then
the positive cable.
4. Be sure all connections are tight and coat the
terminals and cable end with dialectic grease.
WARNING – The electrolyte is a diluted sulfuric acid that
is harmful to the skin and eyes. It is electrically conduc-
tive and corrosive. The following precautions must always
be taken.
* Always wear full eye protection and protective
clothing.
*
Where electrolyte contacts the skin, wash off
immediately with water.
*
If electrolyte contacts the eyes, flush thoroughly and
immediately with water and seek immediate medical
attention.
*
Spilled electrolyte is to be washed down with an acid
neutralizing agent. A common practice is to use a
solution of one pound of bicarbonate of soda (baking
soda) to one gallon of water. The bicarbonate of soda
solution is to be added until the evidence of reaction,
foaming, has ceased. The resulting liquid is to be
flushed with water and the area dried.
DANGER – Explosive Fire Risk
* Never smoke when near batteries
* Do not cause a flame or spark in the battery area
* Always discharge static electricity from your body
before touching batteries by first touching a grounded
metal surface.
SERVICING BATTERIES
Batteries used on these units may over time lose water.
This is especially true if you are using a trickle charger to
maintain your battery. When refilling the battery with
water use only distilled water. Tap water will shorten the
service life of the battery.
Never fill the battery above the fill line. Over filling above
the upper level line may cause the electrolyte to overflow,
resulting in corrosion to the engine or nearby parts.
Immediately wash off any spilled electrolyte following the
procedure above.
BATTERY CHARGING
Units equipped with electric start have a small flywheel
charger built into the engine flywheel assembly for
recharging the starting battery. This flywheel charger
generates a small AC current that passes through a
rectifier/regulator assembly on the engine to produce a
DC charging current. This circuit is not designed to be
used as a battery charging circuit to recharge dead
batteries.
