BEFORE STARTING THE
ENGINE
Add Engine Oil
CAUTION! Any attempt to crank or start the engine
before it hasbeen properly serviced with the
recommended oil results in an engine failure.
•Make sure unit ison a level surface.
• Follow the oit recommendations and oil fill instructions
given in the engine owner's manual.
NOTE:The generator's revolving fieldrides on a
pre-lubricated and sealedball bearing that requires no
additional lubricationfor the lifeof the bearing.
Add Gasoline
_ARNING! NEVER fillfuel tank indoors.NEVER
fill fuel tank when engine isrunning or hot. DO
NOT lighta cigarette or smoke when filling the fuel
tank.
_ARNING! DO NOT overfill the fuel tank.
Always leaveroom for expansion.
• Use regular UNLEADED gasoline in the generator.
DO NOT use premium gasoline. DO NOT mix oil with
gasoline. DO NOT overfill the gas tank.
• Clean areaaround fuel fillcap;remove cap.
• Slowly add unleaded regular gasolineto fuel tank. Be
careful not to overfill.Allow about 1.5"of tank spacefor
fuel expansion (Figure I).
•Install fuel cap and wipe up any spilled gasoline.
IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits
from forming in essential fuel system parts, such as the
carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose or tank during storage.Also,
experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called
gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture, which
leads to separation and formation of acids during storage.
Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in
storage.
Be sure to review the precautions given in "Storage" on
page I0. NEVER use engine or carburetor cleaner products
in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.

GROUNDING THE
GENERATOR
The National Electric Code requires the frame and
external electrically conductive parts of the generator be
properly connected to approved earth ground. Local
electrical codes may also require proper grounding of the
unit. For this purpose, a grounding fastener (Figure 2) is
provided on the cradle.
Fastener
I. Turn the fuel valveto the "On" position (Figure 3).
2. Placethe choke leverin the "Choke" position
(Figure4).
Generally,connecting a No. 12AWG (American Wire
Gauge) stranded copper wire to the grounding wing nut
and to an earth-driven copper or brass grounding rod
(electrode) provides adequate protection againstelectrical
shock. However, local codes mayvary widely.Consult with
alocalelectrician for grounding requirements in your area.
Be sure to keepthe ground wire attached while you
connect the electrode.
Properly grounding the generator helps prevent electrical
shock if a ground fault condition exists in the generator or
in connected electrical devices,especiallywhen the unit is
equipped with a wheel kit. Proper grounding also helps
dissipate static electricity, whichoften builds up in
ungroundeddevices.
OPERATING THE
GENERATOR
_CAUTION! NEVERstart or stop unitwith
electrical loads connected AND with the connected
devicesturned ON.
Starting the Engine
Disconnect all electrical loadsfrom the generator. Use the
following start instructionsteps by numerical order:
3. Set the rocker switch to "On" position (Figure5).
4. Grasp the recoil handle and pull slowly until slight
resistance isfelt.Then pull rapidly to start engine.
5. Move choke leverto "Run" position a short distance
at a time over several seconds in warm weather or
minutes in cold weather. Let engine run smoothly
before each change.Operate with choke in"Run"
position.
NOTE: If engine still fails to start after 3 pulls,check for
proper oil level in crankcase.This unit isequipped with a
low oil device that will not allow the engineto start. See
engine manual.
Refer to the engine owner's manual for complete
starting instructions.

Capacity
You must make sure your generator cansupply enough
rated (running) and surge (starting) watts for the itemsyou
will power at the sametime. Follow these simple steps:
I. Select the itemsyou wilt power at the same time.
2. Total the rated (running) watts of these items.Thisis
the amount of power your generator must produce to
keep your itemsrunning. SeeFigure8.
3. Estimate how many surge (starting) watts you wilt
need.Surge wattage isthe short burst of power
needed to start electric motor-driven tools or
appliancessuch asa circular saw or refrigerator.
Becausenot all motors start at the sametime, total
surge watts can be estimated by addingonly the
item(s)with the highest additional surge watts to the
total rated watts from step 2.

Power Management
To prolong the life of your generator and attached devices,
it is important to take care when addingelectrical loads to
your generator.There should be nothing connected to the
generator outlets before starting it's engine.The correct
and safeway to managegenerator power is to sequentially
add loads asfollows:
I. With nothing connected to the generator, start the
engine asdescribed in this manual.
2. Plugin 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. Plugin and turn on the next load.
5. Again,permit the generator to stabilize.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each additional load.
NEVER add more loadsthan the generator capacity.Take
specialcare to consider surge loads in generator capacity,
asdescribed above.
