Generators

CAMPBELL HAUSFELD

Description

These generators are powered by aircooled four cycle engines and designed to run at maximum RPM and give a continuous wattage as rated.

Unpacking

When unpacking, inspect carefully for any damage that may have occurred during transit. Make sure any loose fittings, bolts, etc., are tightened before putting unit into service.

General Safety

1. Before starting or servicing any generator, read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow safety precautions or instructions can cause equipment damage and/or serious personal injury. Engine instructions for these units are contained in a separate manual. Retain all manuals for future reference.

2. Never use this generator for any application other than that specified by the manufacturer. Never operate this generator under conditions not approved by the manufacturer. Never attempt to modify this generator to perform in any manner not intended by the manufacturer.

3. For maintenance and repairs, use only products and parts recommended by the manufacturer.

4. Be sure that the generator is operated only by persons who have read and understand these instructions.

5. Keep all persons away from the generator during operation.

6. Keep the generator clean and well maintained at all times.

Shut off the

generator engine and disconnect the spark plug wire before performing any service or maintenance to the unit.

8. Use only unleaded fuel. 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 cool for at least two minutes before refueling.

Never mix oil with

gasoline for this engine. Oil is used for engine lubrication purposes only.

LOAD DEVICES

1. The 120 volt receptacles are rated

for 15 amps. The 120V twist lock receptacle is rated for 30 amps.

2. The 12V DC outlet is rated for 8 amps.

3. Total combined load through any combination of receptacle must not exceed the rated load limits of the generator.

NOTE: Power draw can be calculated by multiplying volts and amps. The resulting number is wattage.

Never exceed the posted maximum wattage for the generator or any individual receptacle. Refer to owner's manuals and product tags to determine the wattage of electrical load devices.

Long power cords and extension cords draw additional power. Keep cords at minimum possible length.

Maintenance

INFREQUENT USAGE

If the generator is used infrequently, starting difficulty may occur. To help prevent difficulty starting, the generator should be run for approximately 30 minutes per week.

STORAGE

If the generator is not to be used for extended periods of time, the following pre-storage procedures should be performed:

1. Make sure engine oil is filled to the proper level.

2. Drain all fuel from the tank, lines, and carburetor.

3. Remove the spark plug, and pour approximately one teaspoon of oil into the spark plug hole.

4. Pull the starter cord several times to spread the oil throughout the cylinder.

5. Slowly pull the starter cord, until resistance is felt. This indicates that the piston is moving upward on the compression cycle, and the intake and exhaust valves are closed. (The piston pushes a small amount of air from the spark plug hole on compression.)

Refer to the engine manual that accompanies this unit for instructions regarding maintenance of engine components.

Operating Instructions

Operation

PRE-OPERATION

1. Check engine oil level everytime you start your generator. Refer to the

Engine Manual for SAE, API and fill quantity specifications.

2. Use of a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) is strongly recommended. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters can significantly reduce the possibility of injury if an electrical short occurs.

A Ground Fault

Circuit Interrupter may not be effective if used on a generator that is not grounded!

3. When installing a GFCI, be sure to

follow all national and local regulations, or call a licensed or certified electrical technician.

STARTING

1. Check oil level and fuel.

2. Remove all electrical loads from the

generator.

3. Set the switch to the ON position.

4. Move the choke/run switch to the

choke position.

5. Pull the starter rope with a brisk

smooth motion.

6. Move the choke/run switch to the

run position.

7. After each start up, allow engine to

run 2-3 minutes with no load.

Engine speed is

preset to provide proper output voltage. Never attempt to modify or adjust engine speed or output voltage.

GENERATOR SHUT OFF

1. Remove all electrical load devices

from the generator.

2. Allow the engine to run for 2-3

minutes with no electrical loads.

3. Set the switch to the OFF position.

This will stall the engine.

4. Verify that the generator has

completely stopped.

5. Allow the unit to cool before

installing any covers.

NEVER OPERATE YOUR GENERATOR UNDER THESE CONDITIONS:

1. Rain or inclement weather

2. Excessive vibration

3. Sparking

4. Engine misfire

5. Electric output loss

6. Change or fluctuating engine speed

7. Overheating in connected equipment

8. Damaged receptacles

9. Damaged, broken or missing parts

10. Guarding components removed

ALWAYS OPERATE YOUR GENERATOR UNDER THESE CONDITIONS:

1. Read and understand these instructions

2. Clear of all persons

3. Properly grounded (generator)

4. Properly grounded (tools, appliances, etc.)

5. Flat level surfaces

6. Well ventilated areas
