REV 46558-20110310 8

OPERATION

ENGLISH 46558

Generator Location

Please consult your local authority. In some areas,

generators must be registered with the local utility.

Generators used at construction sites may be subject to

additional rules and regulations.

This generator must have at least five feet of clearance

from combustible material. Leave at least three feet

of clearance on all sides of the generator to allow for

adequate cooling, maintenance and servicing.

Place the generator in a well-ventilated area. DO NOT

place the generator near vents or intakes where exhaust

fumes could be drawn into occupied or confined

spaces. Carefully consider wind and air currents when

positioning generator.

Grounding

The generator system ground connects the frame to the

ground terminals on the power panel.

– The generator (stator winding) is isolated from the

frame and from the AC receptacle ground pin.

– Electrical devices that require a grounded receptacle

pin connection will not function if the receptacle ground

pin is not functional.

Surge Protection

Starting the Engine

1. Make certain the generator is on a flat, level surface.

2. Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator.

Never start or stop the generator with electrical

devices plugged in or turned on.

3. Turn the fuel valve to the “On” position.

4. Flip the engine switch to the “On” position.

5. Move the choke lever to the “Choke” position.

6. RECOIL START: Pull the starter cord slowly until

resistance is felt and then pull rapidly

NOTE

The generator rotor has a sealed, pre-lubricated ball
bearing that requires no additional lubrication for
the life of the bearing.

Connecting Electrical Loads

1. Let the engine stabilize and warm up for a few

minutes after starting

2. Plug in and turn on the desired 120 Volt AC single

phase, 60 Hz electrical loads.

– DO NOT connect 3-phase loads to the generator.

– DO NOT connect 50 Hz loads to the generator.

– DO NOT overload the generator.

CAUTION

Voltage fluctuation may impair the proper
functioning of sensitive electronic equipment.

Electronic devices, including computers and many

programmable appliances use components that are

designed to operate within a narrow voltage range and

may be affected by momentary voltage fluctuations.

While there is no way to prevent voltage fluctuations, you

can take steps to protect sensitive electronic equipment.

1. Install UL1449, CSA-listed, plug-in surge suppressors

on the outlets feeding your sensitive equipment.

Surge suppressors come in single- or multi-outlet

styles. They’re designed to protect against virtually

all short-duration voltage fluctuations.

2. Obtain an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) device.

Most UPS devices come with a rechargeable battery

between the electronic equipment and power supply

source. The device buffers the voltage and protects

against virtually all short-duration voltage fluctuations.

NOTE

Connecting a generator to your electric utility company’s
power lines or to another power source may be against
the law. In addition this action, if done incorrectly, could
damage your generator and appliances and could cause
serious injury or even death to you or a utility worker
who may be working on nearby power lines. If you plan
to run a portable electric generator during an outage,
please notify your electric utility company immediately
and remember to plug your appliances directly into the
generator. Do not plug the generator into any electric
outlet in your home. Doing so could create a connection
to the utility company power lines. You are responsible
for ensuring that your generator’s electricity does not
feed back into the electric utility power lines.
If the generator will be connected to a building electrical
system, consult your local utility company or a qualified
electrician. Connections must isolate generator power
from utility power and must comply with all applicable
laws and codes.

Your Champion Power Equipment (CPE) engine complies with Environment Canada (EC) emission regulations.

YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS:

CPE is pleased to explain the Emission Control Systems Warranty on your 2011 small off-road engine. New engines
must be designed, built and equipped, at the time of sale, to meet EC regulations for small non-road engines. CPE
must warrant the emission control system on your small off-road engine for the period of time listed below, provided
there has been no abuse, neglect, unapproved modification, or improper maintenance of your small off-road engine.

Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor, fuel-injection system, the ignition system,
catalytic converter and fuel lines. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other emission related
assemblies. Where a warrantable condition exits, CPE will repair your small off-road engine at no cost to you
including diagnosis, parts and labor.

MANUFACTURER’S EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY COVERAGE:

This emission control system is warranted for two years, subject to provisions set forth below. If, during the warranty
period, emission related part on your engine is defective in materials or workmanship, the part will be repaired or
replaced by CPE.

OWNER WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:

As the small off-road engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in
your Owner’s Manual. CPE recommends that you retain all your receipts covering maintenance on your small off-road
engine, but CPE cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of
all scheduled maintenance.

As the small off-road engine owner, you should however be aware that CPE may deny you warranty coverage
if your small, off-road engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved
modifications.

You are responsible for presenting your small off-road engine to an Authorized CPE service outlet, CPE dealer or
CPE, Santa Fe Springs, CA., USA as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be completed in a
reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.

material respects to the part as described in the engine manufacturer’s application for certification for a period

of two years.

3. THE WARRANTY ON EMISSION-RELATED PARTS WILL BE INTERPRETED AS FOLLOWS:

a. Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Owners Manual shall

be warranted for the ECS Warranty Period. If any such part fails during the ECS Warranty Period, it shall be

repaired or replaced by CPE according to Subsection “d” below. Any such part repaired or replaced under the

ECS Warranty shall be warranted for any remainder of the ECS Warranty Period.

b. Any warranted, emissions-related part which is scheduled only for regular inspection as specified in the Owners

Manual shall be warranted for the ECS Warranty Period. A statement in such written instructions to the effect

of “repair or replace as necessary”, shall not reduce the ECS Warranty Period. Any such part repaired or

replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period.

c. Any warranted, emissions-related part which is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the

Owner’s Manual shall be warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for

that part. If the part fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the part shall be repaired or replaced

by CPE according to Subsection “d” below. Any such emissions-related part repaired or replaced under the

ECS Warranty, shall be warranted for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period prior to the first scheduled

replacement point for such emissions-related part.

d. Repair or replacement of any warranted, emissions-related part under this ECS Warranty shall be performed at

no charge to the owner at a CPE Authorized Service Outlet.

e. The owner shall not be charged for diagnostic labor which leads to the determination that a part covered by the

ECS Warranty is in fact defective, provided that such diagnostic work is performed at a CPE Authorized Service

Outlet.

f. CPE shall be liable for damages to other original engine components or approved modifications proximately

caused by a failure under warranty of an emission-related part covered by the ECS Warranty.

g. Throughout the ECS Warranty Period, CPE shall maintain a supply of warranted emission-related parts

sufficient to meet the expected demand for such emission-related parts.

h. Any CPE Authorized and approved emission-related replacement part may be used in the performance of any

ECS Warranty maintenance or repair and will be provided without charge to the owner. Such use shall not

reduce CPE’s warranty obligation.

i. Unapproved add-on or modified parts may not be used to modify or repair a CPE engine. Such use voids this

ECS Warranty and shall be sufficient grounds for disallowing an ECS Warranty claim. CPE shall not be liable

hereunder for failures of any warranted parts of a CPE engine caused by the use of such an unapproved add-on

or modified part.
