Description
13. Never operate the generator with damaged,
broken or missing parts. DO NOT operate the
generator while any of the protective shrouds or
guards are removed.
14. Do not refill the fuel tank while the engine is
running. Use precautions to prevent fuel spillage
during refills. Be sure the fuel tank cap is securely
in place before starting the engine. Allow engine to
coot for at least two minutes before refueling.
15. Be sure to store gasoline in clean containers
that do not contain water, dirt or rust because this
wilI cause the engine to shut down.
l& WARN,NO]
Never operate this generator in an explosive
atmosphere, inside your home or basement, or
any other poorly ventilated area.
I_ CAUTION I
Shut off the generator engine and disconnect
the spark plug wire before performing any
service or maintenance to the unit.
OPERATION
PRE OPERATION
1. Check fuel level before starting your generator.
Always use clean, unleaded, mid-to-premium
grade gasoline for best results. Do not overfill and
allow some space at the top of the tank for
expansion. We recommend that you use unleaded
fuel because it produces fewer engine and spark
plug deposits and extends the life of exhaust
system components. Using lower octane
gasoline can cause persistent "pinging" or
heavy "spark knock" which, if severe, can lead
to engine damage. If "spark knock" or
"pinging" occurs at a steady engine speed
under normal load, change brands of gasoline.
2. Check oil level before starting the engine. The
oil level should be positioned between the lower
and upper marks of the oil fill cap shown.
UPPERLEVEL
I J_ CAUTION I
• The generator is shipped from the
factory without oil in the engine
crankcase
• Engine oil is a major factor affecting
engine performance and service life
Detergent oils and vegetable oils are
not recommended
• Use premium quality 4-stroke motor
oil Do not add commercial additives
to the recommended oil and do not
mix gasoline with the oil
• SAE 10W-30 is recommended for
general, all-temperature use
3. Only after the generator has stabilized and
is running smoothly should an appliance or
tool be plugged into the AC outlet of the
generator.
