OPERATION

 Slide the engine/choke lever to the start (center) position.

NOTE: When the engine/choke lever is in the start

(center) position, the fuel will flow from the fuel tank to

the engine. If engine is warm, move the engine/choke

lever right to the run (restart) position.

 Pull the starter grip and rope until the engine runs

(a maximum of 6 times).

NOTE: Do not allow the grip to snap back after starting;

return it gently to its original place. Initial starting of the

unit may require additional pulls to prime the fuel pump.

 Allow the engine to run for 15-30 seconds, then move

the engine/choke lever right to the run position.

STOPPING THE ENGINE

See Figures 5 - 6.

 Remove any load from the generator.

 Place the engine/choke lever in the off position.

To stop the engine in an emergency situation:

 Put the engine/choke lever in the off position.

WARNING:

While operating and storing, keep at least 3 feet of clear-

ance on all sides of this product, including overhead.

Allow a minimum of 30 minutes of “cool down” time

before storage. Heat created by muffler and exhaust

gases could be hot enough to cause serious burns and

/or ignite combustible objects.

USING THE BATTERY CHARGING CABLE

See Figure 8.

WARNING:

The 12 V DC receptacle is designed to charge vented wet

lead acid batteries only. Other types of batteries could

burst, causing personal injury and damage.

NOTICE:

The 12 V DC receptacle provides continuous charge. Do

not overcharge battery or leave battery unattended. Doing

so may cause damage to the battery.

NOTICE:

Do not use the generator to jump start vehicles. Doing

so could result in damage to the vehicle or it’s electrical

components.

 Place the auto idle switch in the OFF position.

 Using the battery clamps, connect the battery charging

cable assembly to the battery terminal. Connect the

red wire to the positive (+) terminal first, then connect

the black wire to the negative (–) terminal. Make sure all

connections are secure.

NOTE: Be careful not to short across the terminals when

installing. Shorting the terminals together can cause

sparks, damage to the battery or generator, or even burns

or explosions.

NOTE: To prevent short circuit, keep away from a metal

surface during clamp connection.

 Connect the battery charging cable assembly to the

12 V DC receptacle.

 Start the generator.

NOTE: The AC receptacles can be used while the DC

receptacle is in use.

 The battery will become slightly warm to the touch while

charging. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.

NOTE: Only use battery charging cable assembly to

charge vented wet lead acid batteries.

 When batteries become fully charged, disconnect

the battery charging cable assembly from the battery.

Disconnect the negative (black) wire first, then the positive

(red) wire, being careful not to short across the terminals.

Always abide by the safety warnings provided with the

battery.

NOTE: Most batteries will be completely charged after

30 to 120 minutes. However, it is highly recommended

that you refer to your battery manufacturer’s instructions

for specific charge times.

 Unplug battery charging cable assembly and store for

later use.

MOVING THE GENERATOR

See Figure 9.

 Place the auto idle switch in the off position. At the off

position, the fuel valve will be closed and prevent any gas

flow.

 Allow 30 minutes of “cool down” time before storing the

machine.

 Pull the retractable handle out or carry by the carry

handles.

 Facing the front of the generator, grasp the folding handle

firmly with one hand.

 Lift the generator toward you until it balances on the

wheels.

 Turn around and pull the unit along behind you to the

desired location.

 Lower the generator until it sits securely on a flat surface.

HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION

Specific modifications are needed for high-altitude operation

for equipment operating in altitudes greater than 5000 feet

above sea level. Please contact your authorized service cen-

ter for important information regarding these modifications.

Operating this engine without the proper altitude modifica-

tion may increase the engine’s emissions and decrease fuel

economy and performance.
