A
WARNING:
GROUNDING
THE
GENERATOR
If
this
generator
will
be used
only
with
cord
and
plug-connected
equipment,
National
Electric
Code does
not require
that the
unit
be
grounded.
However,
other
methods
of
using
the
generator
may require
grounding
to
reduce
the
risk
of
shock
or
electrocution.
Consult
a
qualified
electrician, electrical
inspector,
or
local
agency
having
jurisdiction
for local
codes
or
ordinances
to
find
out
if
grounding
is
needed
in
your
situation before
using
the
generator.
When
grounding
is
required,
the
nut
and
ground
terminal
on
the
frame are
used
to
connect
the
generator
to a
suitable ground
source.
The
ground path
should
be
made
with #8
size
wire.
Connect
the
terminal
of
the
ground
wire
between the
lock
washer
and
the
nut,
and tighten
the
nut
fully.
Connect
the
other
end
of
the
wire
securely
to
a
suitable
ground
source
that
is
in
contact
with
the
soil
fore
minimum
distance
of
8
ft.
The
National
Electric
Code contains
several practical ways
in
which to
establish
a
good
ground
source.
If
a
steel
or
iron
rod
is
used,
it
should
be
at
least
5/8
in.

and
if
a
nonferrous
rod
is
used,
it
should be
at
least
1/2
in.
diameter
and
be
listed
as
material
for
grounding.
If
a
rock
bottom
is
encountered
before reaching
a
depth
of
8
ft.,
drive
the ground
rod
in
at
an
angle
of
up
to
45’.
If
the
rock
bottom
is
again
encountered,
the
rod
can
be
buried
in
a
trench
that
is
at
least
30
in.
deep.
In
all
cases,
the
upper
end
of
the
grounding
rod
should either
be
flush
with
(or
below)
the
ground
or
must
be
otherwise
protected
from
physical
damage.
All
electrical tools
and
appliances operated
from
this
generator
must
be properly
grounded
by
use
of
a
third
wire
or
be
“Double
Insulated.”
It
is
recommended
to;
1.
Use
electrical
devices
with
3-prong grounded
plugs.
2.
Use
an
extension
cord
intended
for
outdoor
use
with
a
3-pole
receptacle
and
a
3-prong
plug
at
opposite
ends
to
ensure
continuity
of
the ground
protection
from
the
generator
to
the
appliance.
Check
and
adhere
to
all
applicable
federal,
state,
and
local
regulations
relating
to
grounding
specifications.
Consult
a
qualified
electrician
or
service
personnel
if
the
grounding
instructions
are
not completely
understood
or
if
in
doubt
as
to
whether
the generator
is
properly
grounded.

ELECTRICAL
ELECTRICAL
GROUND
FAULT
CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER
See
Figure
7.
The
20
amp,
120
volt
receptacles
on
the
generator
are
protected
by
a
Ground
Fault Circuit
Interrupter
(GFCI),
which
guards against
the
hazards
of
ground
fault
currents.
An
example
of
ground
fault
current
is
the
current
that
would
flow
through
a
person
who
is
using
an
appliance
with
faulty
insulation
and,
atthesametime,
is
in
contactwith
an
electrical
ground
such
as
a
plumbing
fixture,
wet
floor,
or
earth.
GFCI
receptacles
do
not
protect
against
short
circuits,
overloads,
or
shocks.
The
GFCI
receptacles
can
be
tested
with
the
TEST
and
RESET
buttons,
To
test:
•
Depress
the
TEST
button.
This
should
cause
the
Reset
button
to
pop
out.
•
To
restore
power,
depress
the
RESET
button.
Pertorm
this
test
monthly
to
ensure
proper
operation
of
the
GFCI.
If
the
generator
is
stored
outdoors,
unprotected
from
the
weather,
test
the
GFCI
receptacle
before
each
use.
GENERATOR
CAPACITY
Make
sure the
generator
can
supply
enough
continuous
(run
ning)
and
surge
(starting)
watts
for
the
items
you
will
power
at
the
same
time.
Follow
these
simple
steps.
1.
Select
the
items
you
will
power at
the
same
time.
2.
Total
the
continuous
(running)
watts
of
these
items.
This
is
the
amount
of
power the
generator
must
produce
to
keep
the items
running.
See
the
wattage
reference chart
at
right.
3.
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.
Because
not
all
motors
start
at
the
same
time, total
surge
watts
can
be
estimated
by
adding
only
the
item(s)
with
the
highest
additional
surge
watts
to
the
total
rated
watts
from
step
2.

POWER
MANAGEMENT
To
prolong
the
life
of
the generator
and
attached
devices,
it
is
important
to
take
care
when
adding
electrical
loads
to
the
generator.
There
should
be
nothing
connected
to
the
generator
outlets before starting
its
engine.
The
correct
and
safe
way
to
manage generator
power
is
to
sequentially
add
loads as
follows:
1.
With
nothing
connected
to
the
generator,
start
the engine
as
described
later
in
this
manual.
2.
Plug
in
and
turn
on
the
first
load,
preferably
the
largest
load
you
have.
3.
Permit
the
generator
output
to
stabilize
(engine
runs
smoothly
and
attached
device
operates
properly).
4.
Plug
in
and
turn
on
the
next
load.
5.
Again,
permit
the
generator
to
stabilize.
6.
Repeat
steps
4
and
5
for
each
additional
load.

A
DANGER:
Carbon
Monoxide.
Using a
generator
indoors
CAN
KILL
YOU
IN
MINUTES.
Generator
exhaust
contains
high
levels
of
carbon
mon
oxide
(CC),
a
poisonous gas
you
cannot
see
or
smell.
If
you
can
smell
the
generator
exhaust,
you
are
breathing
CO. But
even
if
you
cannot
smell
the
exhaust,
you
could
be breathing
CO.
•
Never
use
a
generator
inside
homes,
garages,
crawl
spaces,
or
other
partly
enclosed
areas.
Deadly levels
of
carbon
monoxide
can
build
up
in
these
areas.
Us
ing
a

generator
exhaust.
Even
when
you
use
a
generator
correctly,
CO
may
leak
into
the
home.
ALWAYS

the
home.
If
you
start
to
feel
sick,
dizzy,
or
weak
after
the
generator
has
been
running,
move
to
fresh
air
RIGHT
AWAY.
See
a
doctor.
You
could have
carbon
monoxide poisoning.

has
a
major influence
on
engine
perfor
mance
and
service
life.
For
general,
all-temperature
use,
SAE
10W-3D
is
recommended.
Always
use
a
4-stroke
motor
lubricant
that
meets
or
exceeds
the requirements
for
API
service
classification

This
engine
comes
with
a
feature
that
will
shutoff
the engine
when
a
specific
lubricant
level
is
not maintained.
The
engine
will
not
restart
until
an
appropriate
lubricant
level
is
reached.
NOTE:
Non-detergent
or
2-stroke
engine
lubricants
will
damage
the

not
rethread.
•
Remove
dipstick
again and
check
lubricant
level.
Lubri
cant
level
should

the
oil
cap/dipstick.
USING FUEL STABILIZER Fuel
gets
old,
oxidizes, and
breaks
down over
time.
Adding
a
fuel
stabilizer
(not
included)
extends
the
usable
life
of
fuel
and
helps prevent
deposits
from
forming
that can
clog
the
fuel
system.
Follow
fuel
stabilizer manufacturer’s
directions
for
correct
ratio
of
stabilizer
to
fuel.
•
Mix
fuel
stabilizer and
gasoline
prior
to
filling
the
tank
by
using
a
gas
can
or
other
approved
fuel
container
and
shaking
gently
to
combine.
NOTE:
To
control
the amount
of fuel
stabilizer
being
add
ed
to
the
engine,
always
mix
fuel
stabilizer
with
gasoline
before
fueling
the
tank
rather than adding
fuel
stabilizer
directly
into
the
generator’s
fuel
tank.
•
Replace
and
secure
the
fuel
tank
cap.
•
Start and
run
the

CAPACIDAD
DEL
GENERADOR
Cerciörese
que
el
generador pueda
suministrar suficientes
vatios
de
potencia
continua
(en
marcha)
y
de
sobrecorriente
(al
arrancar)
para
los
equipos
que
desee
alimentar
al
misma
tiempo.
Siga
estos pasos
sencillos.
1.
Seleccione
los
equipos
que
desea
alimentar
al
mismo
tiempo.
2.
Sume
Ia
potencia
continua
(en
marcha)
en
vatios de
estos
equipos.
Esta
es
Ia
cantidad
de
potencia
quo
el
generador
debe
producir
para
mantener
en
marcha
los
equipos.
Observe
Ia
tabla
de
referenda
de
patencia
en
vatios,
ala
derecha.
3.
Calcule
cuánta
potencia
inicial
(al

necesitarã.
La
potencia
inicial (en

es
Ia
breve
variación
rápida de

para
poner
en

los
aparatos
o
herramientas
accionados
con
motor
eléctrico como
las
sierras
circulares
o
los
refrigeradores.
Debido
a
que
no
todos
los
motores arrancan
al

tiempo,
se
puede
calcular
Ia

sumando
solo
los

ADMINISTRACION
DE
LA
POTENCIA
A
fin
de
prolongar
Ia
vida
ütil
del
generador
y
los
dispositivos
acoplados,
es
importante
tener
cuidado
al
agregar cargas
eléctricas
al
generador.
NO
debe
haber
equipo alguno
conectadoa
los
tomacorrientesdel
generadorantesde
poner
en
marcha
el
motor
respectivo.
La
manera
correcta
y
segura
de administrar
Ia
potencia
del
generador consiste
en
agregar
las
cargas
de
manera
secuencial
de
Ia
manera
siguiente:
1.
Sin
equipos
conectados
al
generador,
ponga
en
marcha
el
motor
de
Ia
manera que se
describe
posteriormente
en
este
manual.
2.
Enchufe
y
active
Ia
primera
carga, preferiblemente
Ia
maxima
carga que tenga.
3.
Deje
que
so
estabilice
Ia
salida
del
generador
tel
motor

uniformemente
y
el
dispositivo
acoplado
funciona
carrectamente).
4.
Enchufe
y
active
Ia
siguiente
carga.
5.
Nuevamente,
deje
que
el
generador
se
estabilice.
6.
Repita
los
pasos
4y
5
para
cada
carga
adicional.
Nunca
anada
más
cargas
que
las
que
permita
Ia
capacidad
del
