Instruction for the use of the lifting bracket.
The lifting bracket is for lifting the generator which is described in the instruction manual, and it can bear 3 to 3.5 times the net weight of the generator.
Operation process:
Step 1: Take the lifting bracket attachment out of the box and then enter it from the end of the frame (see below picture).
Step 2: Move it towards the middle of the frame (please note it does not interfere with or scratch the fuel tank). (See below picture)
Step 3: Move it to the middle of the frame. (See below picture)
Step 4: Lift the generator slowly.
Step 5: Remove the lifting bracket by following (step 3→step 2→step 1) and then fasten it on the frame as standby.

AUTO THROTTLE CONTROL SWITCH
When using the generator, leave the AUTO THROTTLE CONTROL SWITCH (ATC) in the “ON” position; as soon as no output is need, engine will go into idle speed thus save fuel. As soon as, power is need, engine will operate as normal again.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS |
ELECTRIC SHOCK AND SHORT CIRCUIT |
In order to ensure safety for the consumer, please carefully follow instructions on being careful with the generators.
Operate the generator ONLY outdoors. Never run the generator indoors as the engine gives off poisonous carbon monoxide, an odorless and colorless gas. Inhaling carbon monoxide will cause nausea, fainting or death. Also, keep the generator at least 3 feet away from flammable matter for adequate ventilation.
Be sure to notify the utility company when using the generator for backup power. Use approved transfer equipment to isolate the generator from electric utility. In highly conductive area such as metal decking or steel work, use a ground circuit fault interrupter. Never touch the generator if the generator is wet. Also, never touch the generator if your hand is wet. Never operate your generator if the weather conditions call for any type of precipitation such as rain, snow, or fog.
DANGER
Always properly ground the generator. Failing to do so can result in electrocution, particularly if the generator is equipped with a wheel kit.
PREVENTION FROM ACCIDENTAL BURNS
Never touch the muffler and its cover when the engine is running. Never touch the muffler and cover after the engine has been used, as the muffler remains hot for a good period of time.
REFUELING PRECAUTIONS
Gasoline and its vapors are extremely flammable. Do not smoke near gasoline and keep gasoline away from generator while the generator is running. When adding fuel, turn the generator off and let it cool at least 2 minutes before removing the gas cap. Loosen gas cap slowly to relieve the pressure in the tank.
Fill fuel tank outdoors and never overfill the tank.
8
ETQ
EASTERN TOOLS & EQUIPMENT INC Tel: (888)908-6200 Web Site: easterntools.com
When storing gasoline or equipment with fuel in tank.
Store away from appliances or equipment that have a pilot light or other ignition sources because it can ignite gasoline vapors.
ENGINE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Do not touch hot surfaces. Allow equipment to fully cool down before touching.
After the generator has been run, the engine produces heat. The temperature of the muffler and nearby areas can reach or exceed 1600 F. Severe burns will occur on contact with skin. Do not modify the generator in any way. The generator supplies the rated voltage and rated frequency at its governed speed.
GENERATOR SAFETY
Never overload your generator as this can damage your generator or the electrical devices connected to it
Do not start generator with electrical devices connected to it. Start the generator first and after the speed of the generator stabilizes, electrical loads can be applied to it.
When connecting electrical loads, make sure the devices are "OFF" first before connecting them. Keep the same concept when
disconnecting electrical devices; make sure all devices are in the "OFF" position before disconnecting.
Operate the generator on level surfaces only. Inclined surfaces reduce the effective lubrication of the engine.
Do not expose the generator to excessive moisture, dust, dirt, or corrosive vapors.
PREPARATION BEFORE
OPERATION
Before starting the generator, verify the following conditions.
ENGINE OIL
•Fill the engine with SAE 10W-30 engine oil for generator use or follow the table below.
•Make sure the generator is on a level surface and make sure the oil dipstick is on tight.

•Add unleaded gasoline and never fill the fuel tank indoors. Also, be sure to install the fuel tank cap on tight after filling.
•DO NOT overfill the fuel tank. Always allow room for fuel expansion. Never fill the fuel tank when the engine is running or hot.
Allow the unit to cool for two minutes before refueling. DO NOT use light a cigarette or smoke when filling the fuel tank.
AIR CLEANER
•Unsnap the air cleaner cover springs, and remove the air cleaner cover.
•Check the air cleaner element to be sure they are clean and in good condition.
•Reinstall the air cleaner element and secure the cover by setting the cover spring.

GROUNDING THE GENERATOR |
OPERATING THE GENERATOR |
The National Electric Code requires that the frame of generator and the external electrically conductive parts of the generator be connected to an approved earth ground. Local codes may differ and require other grounding specifications. For this purpose, please use the ground wire that attaches from the frame to the generator unit.
Using a No. 12 AWG (American Wire Gauge) stranded copper wire to the frame and to an earth-driven copper or brass grounding rod provides sufficient safety against shock. However, local codes may differ. Contact a local electrician to find out specifications for grounding your generator.
Note: Note: Grounding your generator is highly recommended. It helps prevent electrical shock if a ground fault condition exists in the generator or in faulty connected electrical devices. Also, because the generator is rotating at high speeds, static electricity tends to buildup within the unit. Grounding helps dissipate the static electricity often building up in underground devices.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Before starting the engine, verify that the engine oil is full, gasoline is full, and air Filter is in place. Also, disconnect any load from the AC receptacle, and turn the AC circuit breaker OFF (Figure 1)
Figure 1. Disconnecting electrical devices
•Turn the fuel valve to the "On" position (Figure 2).
Figure 2. Fuel Valve
• Place the choke lever in the “CHOKE” position (Figure 3.).
Figure 3. Engine switch on position
• Turn the engine switch to the “ON” position (Figure 4).

• Push the choke rod to the “OPEN” position a short distance at a time over several seconds as the engine warms up (Figure 6).
ELECTRIC STARTING
Before starting the engine, verify that the engine oil is full, gasoline is full, and air filter is in place. Also, disconnect any load from the AC receptacle, and turn the AC circuit breaker OFF (Figure 1).

CONNECTING ELECTRICAL LOADS AND ELECTRICAL CAPACITY
After starting the generator, let the engine warm up after connecting electrical loads to it. Do not have any electrical loads connected before starting the generator.
Make sure all electrical devices are 60 Hz devices.
Do not connect 50 Hz devices to the generator. Do not connect 3-phase loads to the generator. Do not overload the generator.
Before beginning your work, you must verify that the rated (running) and surge (starting) wattage for the items you will power do not exceed the operating capacity of the generator. Please refer to the following Table (1) for wattage / amperage ratings. Also, in order to prolong the life of your generator, sequentially add loads and allow the generator to stabilize before adding another load. Never exceed the capacity of the generator.
Estimate how many surge (starting) watts you will need. Surge wattage is the short burst of power needed to start electric motor-driven tools or appliances such as a circular saw or refrigerator.
