1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

To ensure safe operation

WARNING

 

Our generators are designed to give safe and depend-

 

able service if operated according to instructions.

 

Read and understand the Owner's Manual before op-

 

erating the generator. Failure to do so could result in

 

personal injury or equipment damage.

WARNING

Exhaust gas contains poisonous carbon monoxide.

Never run the generator in an enclosed area.

Be sure to provide adequate ventilation.

WARNING

The muffler becomes very hot during operation and remains hot for a while after stopping the engine.

Be careful not to touch the muffler while it is hot.

Let the engine cool before storing the generator indoors. The engine exhaust system will be heated during operation and remain hot immediately after stopping the engine.

To prevent scalding, pay attention to the warning marks attached to the generator.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

To ensure safe operation -- WARNING

Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive under certain conditions. Refuel in a well ventilated area with the engine stopped.

Keep away from cigarette, smoke and sparks when refueling the generator, Always refuel in a well-ventilated location.

Wipe up spilled gasoline at once.

WARNING

Connections for standby power to a building's electrical system must be made by a qualified electrician and must comply with all applicable laws and electrical codes. Improper connections can allow electrical current from the generator to back feed into the utility lines. Such back feed may electrocute utility company workers or others who contact the lines during a power outage, and when utility power is restored, the generator may explode, burn, or cause fires in the building's electrical system.

WARNING

Always make a pre-operation inspection (page 9) before you start the engine. You may prevent an accident or equipment damage.

Place the generator at least 1m(3ft) away from buildings or other equipment during operation.

Operate the generator on a level surface. if the generator is tiled, fuel spillage may result.

Know how to stop the generator quickly and understand operation of all the controls. Never permit anyone to operate the generator without proper instructions.

Keep children and pets away from the generator when it is in operation. Keep away from rotating parts while the generator is running.

The generator is a potential source of electrical shocks when misused; do not operate with wet hands.

Do not operate the generator in rain or snow and do not let it get wet.

2. SAFETY LABEL LOCATIONS

These lables warn you potential hazards that can cause serious injury. Read the labels and safety notes and precautions described in manual carefully.

Smart throttle

Engine speed is kept at idle automatically when the electrical appliance is disconnected and it returns to the proper speed to power of the electrical load when electrical appliance is connected. This position is recommended to minimize the fuel consumption while in operation.

WARNING

Smart throttle system does not operate effectively, if the electrical appliance requires the momentary electric power.

When high electrical loads are connected simultaneously, turn the Smartthrottle switch to the OFF position to reduce voltage vibration.

In DC operation, turn the Smart-throttle switch to the OFF position.

OFF:

Smart-throttle system does not operate. Engine speed is kept over rated speed.

4. PRE-OPERATION CHECK

WARNING

Be sure to check the generator on a level surface with the engine stopped.

1. Check the engine oil level.

WARNING

Using nondetergent oil or 2-stroke engine oil could shorten the engine's service life.

Use high-detergent, premium quality 4-stroke engine oil, certified to meet or exceed U.S.automobile manufacturer's requirements for API Service Classification SG, SF. Select the appropriate viscosity for the average temperature in your area.

Loosen the cover screw and remove the left side maintenance cover. Remove the oil

filler cap, and wipe the dipstick with a clean rag. Check the oil level by inserting the

dipstick in the filler hole without screwing it in.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If the oil level is below the end of the dipstick, refill the recommended oil up to the top of

the oil filler neck.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

WARNING

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Running the engine with insufficient oil can cause serious engine damage.

NOTE: The Low Oil Alarm System will automatically stop the engine before the oil level falls below the safe limit. However, to avoid the inconvenience of an unexpected shutdown, it is still advisable to visually inspect the oil level regularly.

UPPER LEVEL

OIL FILLER CAP

2. Check the fuel level.

Use automotive gasoline (Unleaded or lowleaded is preferred to minimize combustion chamber deposits).

If the fuel level is low, refuel the fuel tank until the level increased to the specified mark. Never use an oil/gasoline mixture or dirty gasoline.

Avoid getting dirt, dust or water in the fuel tank. After refueling, tighten the fuel filler cap seurely.

WARNING

Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions. Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is refueled or where gasoline is stored.

Do not overfill the fuel tank (there should be no fuel above the upper limit mark). After refueling, make sure the tank cap is closed properly and securely.

Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may ignite, If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before starting the engine. Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or breathing of vapor. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
