WARNING!
monoxide gas from dissipating.
Using a generator indoors WILL KILL YOU IN MINUTES!
Carbon monoxide gas is a poisonous, odorless gas that can cause headache, confusion, fatigue, nausea, fainting,
sickness, seizures, or death. If you start to experience any of these symptoms, IMMEDIATELY get fresh air and seek medical attention.
Install a battery operated carbon monoxide alarm near bedrooms.

SAFETY RULES
WARNING!
Check operating voltage and frequency requirements of all electrical devices prior to plugging them into the generator.
WARNING!
Always start the engine and let it stabilize before connecting any electronic devices.
Disconnect all electronic devices before stopping the engine.
WARNING!
Do not wear loose clothing or gloves.
Remove jewelry or anything else that could be caught in moving parts.
Tie back or wear protective head covering to contain long hair.
Never exceed generators wattage / amperage capacity. This could damage the generator and / or connected electrical devices.
Never start or stop engine with electrical devices plugged in to the receptacles. Failure to do so could damage the generator and / or connected electrical devices.
Starter and other moving parts can catch on clothing, jewelry, and hair.
WARNING!
death.
on the unit before starting the engine.
Never smoke while operating or fueling this unit.
Generator should have at least 5 feet of clearance from buildings or other equipment during operation.
When adding or draining fuel, unit should be turned off for at least 2 minutes to cool before removing fuel cap. If unit
has been running then the fuel cap is under pressure, remove slowly.
To keep fuel from spilling, secure unit so it cannot tip while operating or transporting.
When transporting unit, disconnect the spark plug wire and make sure the fuel tank is empty with the 3 in 1 switch is
turned to the off position.
WARNING!
To avoid recoil, pull starter cord slowly until resistance is felt, then pull rapidly.
Pull cord recoils rapidly and pulls arm towards engine faster than you can let go which could result in injury.
WARNING!
Allow hot components to cool before touching.
Avoid contacting hot areas of this unit.

SAFETY RULES
WARNING!
Never handle the generator, electronic devices, or any cord while standing in water, while barefoot, or when hands or feet are wet.
Always keep the generator dry. Never operate generator in rain or under wet conditions.
Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in a damp or highly conductive area, such as metal decking or steel work.
Never plug electronic devices into generator having frayed, worn, or bare wires. Never touch bare wires or make
contact with receptacles.
generator at all times.
If using the generator for back up power, notify the utility company.
install a transfer switch. Failure to isolate the generator from the power utility could result in serious injury or death to electric utility workers.
WARNING!
Only operate generator on a level surface.
Always connect the nut and ground terminal on the frame to an appropriate ground source.
This generator produces a very high voltage which could result in burn or electrocution causing serious injury or death.
Generator must be properly grounded to prevent electrocution.
WARNING!
Increasing governing speed is dangerous which can result in personal injury and / or damaged equipment.
Decreasing governing speed adds an excessive load and can damage equipment.
Only when operating at the preset governing speed will this generator supply the correct rated frequency and voltage.
WARNING!
Do not bypass any safety device. Moving parts are covered with guards. Make sure all protective covers are in place.
Never transport or make adjustments to this unit while it is running.
Never insert objects through cooling slots.
WARNING!
Improper treatment of generator can damage the unit and shorten its life.

Never modify this unit in any way or modify governed speed.
Only use this unit as it is intended or serious injury or death could result.
Never operate this unit if there are any broken or missing parts and only use our

Engine Overload Indicator Light
If the engine overload indicator light comes on, the generator s wattage / amperage capacity has been exceeded by connected electrical devices or by a power surge. When this occurs, the green AC Pilot Indicator Light will go off. The engine will continue to run, but the red Engine Overload Indicator Light will stay on and power will no longer be supplied to connected electronic devices.
,
How to Correct
1. Disconnect any electronic devices then stop the engine.
2. Reduce the total wattage of connected electronic devices until it is within the generator’s rated output.
3. Inspect the Air Inlet and Control Panel for any blockage. Remove blockage if found.
4. Restart Engine.
Note: The engine overload indicator light may turn on for a few sec-
onds when attaching a load due to a power surge. This is normal.

DC Circuit Breaker
When the DC Circuit Breaker is in the “ON” position, the generator is able to supply power to connected electronic devices. When the DC Circuit Breaker is in the “OFF” position, the generator will no longer supply power. The DC Circuit Breaker automatically turns “OFF” when connecting electronic devices to the generator that exceed the generator’s rated output. If the DC Circuit Breaker turns off, reduce the load of connected electronic devices until the load is within the specified rated output. To re-establish power, return the DC Circuit Breaker back to the “ON” position.
CAUTION!
If the DC Circuit Breaker turns off again, stop using the generator immediately and consult our
dealers.
Engine ECO Control
When the Engine ECO switch is turned to the “ON” position, the economy control unit automatically determines the generator’s proper engine speed based on the connected electronic load. This results in superior fuel economy and reduces noise.
When the ECO switch is turned to the “OFF” position, the engine runs at the rated speed of 4,850 r/min.
Note: The ECO switch must be turned to the “OFF” position when using electronic devices that require a large starting
current, such as a compressor.
Parallel Outlets
Located just above the Ground Terminal, the generator’s Parallel Outlets enable a user to run two D2000iS generator’s simultaneously. This operation requires special cables. When operating parallel generators, the rated output is 3.0Kva and the rated current is 25A/120V. For cables and instructions consult a DUCAR dealer for a PARALLEL OPERATION CABLE KIT.
WARNING!
Only connect this generator to another D2000iS Standard Generator or D2000iS Companion Generator
Only use brands approved parallel operation cable kit to connect generators
Never connect generators that are different models.
