below the threshold level.

CAUTION

Add Engine Oil

DO NOT attempt to crank or start the engine before

it has been properly ﬁ lled with the recommended

type and amount of oil. Damage to the generator as

a result of failure to follow these instructions will

void your warranty.

CAUTION

ASSEMBLY

Check oil often during the break-in period. Refer to the

Maintenance section for recommended service intervals.

NOTE

The generator rotor has a sealed, pre-lubricated ball

bearing that requires no additional lubrication for

the life of the bearing.

NOTE

Add Engine Oil Cont’d.

break-in period. Using synthetic oil does not

increase the recommended oil change interval.

Full synthetic 5W-30 oil will aid in starting in cold

ambient <5ºC (41ºF)

NOTE

We consider the ﬁ rst 5 hours of run time to be

the break-in period for the unit. During the break

in period stay at or below 50% of the running

watt rating and vary the load occasionally to allow

stator windings to heat and cool. Adjusting the

load will also cause engine speed to vary and help

seat piston rings. After the 5 hour break-in period,

change the oil.

NOTE

Weather will affect engine oil and engine

performance. Change the type of engine oil used

based on weather conditions to suit the engine

needs.

Grounding

Your generator must be properly connected to an

appropriate ground to help prevent electric shock.

A ground terminal connected to the frame of the generator

has been provided on the power panel. For remote

grounding, connect of a length of heavy gauge

(12 AWG minimum) copper wire between the generator

ground terminal and a copper rod driven into the ground.

We strongly recommend that you consult with a qualiﬁ ed

electrician to ensure compliance with local electrical codes.

Failure to properly ground the generator can result

in electric shock.

WARNING

Our engines work well with 10% or less ethanol

blend fuels. When using blended fuels there are

some issues worth noting:

– Ethanol-gasoline blends can absorb more water

than gasoline alone.

– These blends can eventually separate, leaving

water or a watery goo in the tank, fuel valve and

carburetor.

– With gravity-fed fuel supplies, this compromised

fuel can be drawn into the carburetor and cause

damage to the engine and/or potential hazards.

– There are only a few suppliers of fuel stabilizer

that are formulated to work with ethanol blend

fuels.

– Any damages or hazards caused by using

improper fuel, improperly stored fuel, and/

or improperly formulated stabilizers, are not

covered by manufacture’s warranty.

It is advisable to always shut off the fuel supply,

run the engine to fuel starvation and drain the tank

when the equipment is not in use for more than 30

days.

NOTE

Add Fuel

1. Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded fuel with a

minimum octane rating of 85 and an ethanol content

of less than 10% by volume.

2. DO NOT mix oil with fuel.

3. Clean the area around the fuel cap.

4. Remove the fuel cap.

5. Slowly add fuel to the tank. DO NOT OVERFILL. Fuel

can expand after ﬁ lling. A minimum of

¼ in. (6.4 mm) of space left in the tank is required

for fuel expansion, more than ¼ in. (6.4 mm) is

recommended. Fuel can be forced out of the tank as

a result of expansion if it is overﬁ lled, and can affect

the stable running condition of the product. When

ﬁ lling the tank, it is recommended to leave enough

space for the fuel to expand.

6. Screw on the fuel cap and wipe away any spilled fuel.

Use regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum

octane rating of 85.

Do not mix oil and gasoline.

Fill tank to approximately ¼ in. (6.4 mm) below the

top of the tank to allow for fuel expansion.

DO NOT pump gas directly into the generator at the

gas station. Use an approved container to transfer

the fuel to the generator.

DO NOT ﬁ ll fuel tank indoors.

DO NOT ﬁ ll fuel tank when the engine is running or hot.

DO NOT overﬁ ll the fuel tank.

DO NOT light cigarettes or smoke when ﬁ lling the

fuel tank.

CAUTION

Pouring fuel too fast through the fuel screen may

result in blow back of fuel at the operator while ﬁ lling.

OPERATION

Generator Location

Never operate the generator inside any building! (See

safety warnings section). In some areas generators must

be registered with the local utility company. Generators

used on construction sites may be subject to local

rules and regulations. Keep on a ﬂ at, level surface.

Generators must have at least 5 ft (1.5m) clearance

from all combustible material. In addition they must

have at least 3 ft (91.4cm) of clearance on all sides to

allow for adequate cooling, maintenance and servicing.

Generators should never be started or operated in ant

location that will not allow for adequate cooling of

the generator and/or the mufﬂ er. Allow generators to

cool before storage or transportation. Do not place the

generator near any vents or intakes. Carefully consider

wind and air currents when placing generator.

Failure to follow proper safety precautions may void

manufacturer’s warranty.

Do not operate or store the generator in rain, snow,

or wet weather.

Using a generator or electrical appliance in wet

conditions, such as rain or snow, or near a pool or

sprinkler system, or when your hands are wet, could

result in electrocution.

WARNING

During operation the mufﬂ er and exhaust fumes

produced will become hot. If adequate cooling and

breathing space are not supplied, or if the generator

is blocked or contained, temperatures can become

extremely heated and may lead to ﬁ re.

Surge Protection

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 ﬂ uctuations.

While there is no way to prevent voltage ﬂ uctuations, 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 ﬂ uctuations.

Voltage ﬂ uctuation may impair the proper

functioning of sensitive electronic equipment.

CAUTION

Starting the Engine

1. Make certain the generator is on a ﬂ at, 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. Move the choke lever to the “CHOKE” position.

5. Flip the ignition switch to the “ON” position.

6. For models that have an ELECTRIC START: Press

and hold the ignition switch to the “START” position.

Release as the engine begins to roll over. If the engine

fails to start within ﬁ ve seconds, release the switch

and wait at least ten seconds before attempting to

start the engine again.

7. RECOIL START: Pull the starter cord slowly until

resistance is felt and then pull rapidly

8. Do not over-choke. As as soon as engine starts, move

the choke lever to the “RUN” position.

Grounding

The generator system ground connects the frame to the

ground terminals on the power panel. The system ground is

connected to the AC neutral wire.

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 120/240 Volt AC

single phase, 50 Hz electrical loads.

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

– DO NOT connect 60 Hz loads to the generator.

– DO NOT overload the generator.

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 qualiﬁ ed

electrician. Connections must isolate generator power

from utility power and must comply with all applicable

laws and codes.

NOTE

OPERATION

Stopping the Engine

1. Turn off and unplug all electrical loads. Never start

or stop the generator with electrical devices plugged

in or turned on.

2. Let the generator run at no-load for several minutes

to stabilize internal temperatures of the engine and

generator.

3. Turn the Fuel Valve to the “OFF” position.

4. Let the engine run until fuel starvation has stopped

the engine. This usually takes a few minutes.

5. Press the Ignition Switch to the “OFF” position.

Important: Always ensure that the Fuel Valve and the

Ignition Switch are in the “OFF” position when the

engine is not in use.

If the engine will not be used for a period of two (2) weeks

or longer, please see the Storage section for proper engine

and fuel storage.

NOTE

If the engine starts but does not run make certain

that the generator is on a ﬂ at, level surface. The

engine is equipped with a low oil sensor that will

prevent the engine from running when the oil level

falls below a critical threshold.

NOTE

Keep choke lever in “Choke” position for only 1

pull of the recoil starter. After ﬁ rst pull, move

choke lever to the “Run” position for up to the next

3 pulls of the recoil starter. Too much choke will

cause the engine not to start.

NOTE

When the battery switch is in the “ON” position,

the switch will light up if the battery is sending

out a charge. If the switch does not light up while

in the “ON” position, check that the battery

connection is still good.

NOTE

The supplied 12V 15AH battery does re-charge

while the engine is running, but it is also

recommended that the battery be fully charged at

least once per month.

Do Not Overload Generator

Capacity

Follow these simple steps to calculate the running and

starting watts necessary for your purposes.

1. Select the electrical devices you plan on running at

the same time.

2. Total the running watts of these items. This is

the amount of power you need to keep your items

running.

3. Identify the highest starting wattage of all devices

identiﬁ ed in step 1. Add this number to the number

calculated in step 2. Surge wattage is the extra

burst of power needed to start some electric driven

equipment. Following the steps listed under “Power

Management” will guarantee that only one device will

be starting at a time.

Power Management

Use the following formula to convert voltage and

amperage to watts:

Volts x Amps = Watts

To prolong the life of your generator and attached

devices, follow these steps to add electrical load:

1. Start the generator with no electrical load attached

2. Allow the engine to run for several minutes to stabilize.

3. Plug in and turn on the ﬁ rst item. It is best to attach

the item with the largest load ﬁ rst.

4. Allow the engine to stabilize.

5. Plug in and turn on the next item.

6. Allow the engine to stabilize.

7. Repeat steps 5-6 for each additional item.

Never exceed the speciﬁ ed capacity when adding

loads to the generator.

used less frequently, the battery should be connected

to a trickle charger or battery maintainer to keep the

battery properly charged. If the battery is not able to

start the engine, it can be started by manually pulling

the engine recoil cord. If the battery voltage is extremely

low, the charging circuit may not be able to re-charge

the battery. In this case, the battery must be connected

to a standard automotive style battery charger for re-

charging before it can be used.

Disconnect the Battery

1. Remove the protective cover from the black/negative

battery lead.

2. Disconnect the black/negative lead from the black/

negative terminal on the battery and store the cap

screw and lock washer.

3. Repeat steps 1-2 for the red/positive battery lead.

4. Store the battery in a cool, dry place.

A Float Charger will maintain the battery condition

over long storage periods.

NOTE

Charge the Battery

For generators equipped with batteries for electric

starting, proper battery maintenance and storage should

be followed. An automatic battery charger (not included)

with automatic trickle charging capability should be used

to charge the battery. Maximum charging rate should not

exceed 1.5 amps. Follow the instructions included with

the battery charger. The battery should be fully charged

at least once per month.

Generator exhaust contains odorless and colorless

carbon monoxide gas.

To avoid accidental or unintended ignition of your

electric start generator during periods of storage,

the following precautions should be followed:

– When storing the generator for short periods of

time make sure that the Ignition Switch and the

FuelValve are set in the OFF position.

– When storing the generator for extended periods

of time make sure that the Ignition Switch and

the Fuel Valve are set in the OFF position and

the battery leads have been disconnected from

the battery.
