DC CuRRENT
• DC Terminals
The DC terminals are used to provide power supply for
lower-power DC loads and charging other batteries.
The terminals are colored as such: red to identify the
positive (+) terminal and black to identify the negative
(-) terminal. Load connection method: The load must be
connected to DC terminals with the proper polarity (load’s
positive to positive DC terminal and load’s negative to
negative DC terminal).
• DC OVERCURRENT PROTECTOR
The DC overcurrent protector will automatically shut off
when the DC circuit is overloaded or poor connection
occurs. If the indicator inside the DC overcurrent protector
button pops out, it shows that the DC overcurrent protector
has switched off. Wait a few minutes and then push the
button in to return to “ON” position.
Recommended engine oil 4-stroke gasoline engine oil SF
under API service classication or SAE10W-30 (equivalent
to SG class).
Method of checking engine oil level:
Remove the oil ller cap and wipe the dipstick to clean it.
Check the oil level by inserting the dipstick into the ller
neck without screwing it in.
If the level is low, add the recommended engine oil until oil
level can reach the upper mark on the dipstick.
After adding, don’t forget to ret and screw the oil dipstick
tight.
hIGh AlTITuDE OPERATION
At a high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture
will be excessively rich. Output power will decrease, and fuel
consumption will increase.
Engine performance can be improved by installing a smaller
diameter main fuel jet in the carburetor and readjusting the
pilot screw. If you always operate the engine at altitudes
1,000 meters above the sea level,
have our company authorized dealer perform this carburetor
modication. If not, you should lower load power in
operating generator.
Even equipped with suitable carburetor, engine horsepower
will decrease approximately 3.5% for each 300 meter
increase in altitude. The effect of altitude on horsepower will
be lowered greater than this if no carburetor
modication is made.
If a carburetor for high altitude operation is installed
onto an engine suitable to a lower altitude, the lean air
fuel mixture will cause lower engine output power, over
heating and serious damage.
5.PRE-OPERATION CHECK
ENGINE OIl
Engine oil is a major factor affecting engine
performance and service life. Non-detergent and
2-stroke engine oils will damage the engine and are
not recommended. Check the oil level before each use
with the generator on a level surface with the engine
stopped.

1) Check the fuel level gauge.
2) Replenish the tank if the fuel level is low. Do not let oil
level rise above the shoulder of the fuel strainer.
3) Ret and screw the fuel tank cap tight after refueling.
• Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine
stopped. Never smoke or allow ames or sparks in the
area where the engine is refueled or where gasoline is
stored.
• Do not overll the fuel tank.
• Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or
breathing in of fuel vapor.
• Keep children from contacting fuel.
• Never use the oil/gasoline mixture or gasoline
containing impurity.
Use gasoline with octane rating ≥90 .
We recommend unleaded gasoline because it produces
fewer engine carbon deposits and spark plug deposits and
extends exhaust system’s life.
Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or oil/gasoline
mixture. Avoid getting dirt or water into the fuel tank.
