Pre-Operation Checklist
Note: Pre-operation checks should be carried out each time the generator is used.
Fuel System
Make sure there is sufficient fuel in the tank. The engine uses regular unleaded petrol
only. The fuel tank capacity is 7 litres.
Refuelling & Fuel Level Gauge
To refuel, remove cap and fuel slowly until fuel gauge indicates full. Apply fuel cap.
WARNING: Fuel is high flammable and poisonous.
DO NOT fill above the top of fuel filler or it may
overflow when the fuel heats up and expands.
Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.
After refuelling, make sure the tank cap is tightened.
Engine Oil
Make sure the engine oil is at the upper level of the oil filler hole. Add oil as necessary.
Recommended oil for most climates is 10W30. Engine oil quantity is 600 millilitres.

Unless you refill with oil, the engine will not start again.
Note: If the engine stalls or does not start, turn the engine switch to “ON” position and
then pull the recoil starter. If the oil warning light flickers for a few seconds, the engine oil
is low. Add oil and restart.
Engine Switch
The engine switch controls the ignition system.
A. Ignition circuit is switched on.
The engine can be started.
B. Ignition circuit is switched off.
The engine will not run.
DC Protector
The DC Protector turns off automatically when the load exceeds the generator’s rated
output.
Note: If the DC Protector trips to the OFF position, press to reset. Reduce the load to
the specified generator output if the DC protector turns off. If it turns off again, consult
the authorized dealer.

Operation (Electric Start Model)
AC connection overload indicator light
The overload indicator light (the AC pilot light) will flash when an overload of connected
electrical device is detected or the inverter control unit overheats. The electronic breaker
will then activate, stopping power generation in order to protect the generator and any
connected electric devices, but the engine will not stop running.
When the overload indicator light comes on and power generation stops, proceed as
directed:
1. Turn off any connected electric devices and stop the engine.
2. Reduce the total wattage of connected electric devices within the application range.
3. Check for blockages in the cooling air inlet and around the control unit. If any
blockages are found, remove.
4. After checking, restart the engine.
The short term peak load is 3,300 watts and the max operating load is 3,000 watts. High
temperatures or high elevations will reduce the expected performance of this generator.
NOTE!
• The generator’s AC output automatically resets when the engine is stopped and
restarted.
Using the generator for battery charging
CAUTION!
Do not use AC and DC power at the same time or the generator may be damaged.
The generator DC rated voltage is 12V.
1. Start Engine
2. Plug in battery charge wires to DC receptacle (#12 on Control Function diagram)
NOTE!
• Make connections to the battery after starting the engine.
• Clamp the red wire to the positive (+) terminal and the black wire to the negative (-)
terminal of the battery. Do not reverse these positions.
• Use of the 12V (DC) outlet whilst charging batteries must be closely monitored as the
output is continuous & cannot be regulated.
• The 12V (DC) outlet fitted to this generator is NOT a battery charger.
• Do not use AC (240V) and DC(12V) power at the same time as damage to the
control unit will occur resulting in warranty being voided.

maintenance. There is no need to check the electrolyte or to add distilled water.
Battery connection
1. Open the front access door panel.
2. Check the positive lead (red) connection to the positive (+) terminal.
3. Connect the negative lead (black) to the negative (-) terminal.
4. Close the front access door panel.
To charge the battery

Genquip Safety
“Genquip values your safety and the safety of others
when using your Genquip generator”
General safety
It is important to read and understand your owner’s manual before operating your
Genquip generator.
Tips for safe operation
• Know where the controls are and how they operate the startup and shut off
procedures.
• Know the location of the fuel shutoff and how to operate it.
• Always user your Genquip generators in a well ventilated area.
• Be aware your Genquip generator is not weatherproof.
• Ensure your generator is properly grounded to prevent electrical shock.
• Operate the generator on a level surface.
• Never refuel your Genquip generator whilst the engine is running.
• Always allow sufficient time for the generator to cool down before refueling.
• Always refuel the generator in a well-ventilated area.
• Keep all flammable materials and fuel away from the operating generator.
• Always locate your generator where its exhaust will vent safely. Hot exhaust from a
generator can easily start a fire.
• Avoid getting burned. Many generator parts radiate heat that is sufficient to burn you
during operation.
• Only use a licensed electrician to hard wire your Genquip generator.
• Turn off all equipment powered by the generator before shutting it down your
generator.
• Never overload your Genquip generator. If unsure about the power requirements,
consult a licensed electrician.
• Wear appropriate ear protection. Generators can be noisy.
• Keep children away from your Genquip generator at all times.
• Never permit anyone to operate a Genquip generator without proper instructions.
DANGER: Only competent and qualified electricians should
connect wiring to this equipment; all connections
must comply with all applicable Australian Standards
and electrical codes.

Genquip Operating Procedure & Cleaning
Visual Inspection
Carefully inspect the generator set before you first use it. Look for the following:
• General appearance and cleanliness
• Loose or broken wires and defective connections
• Oil or fuel pooling around generator
• Check fuel filter
• Missing covers
• Oil level
• Fuel level
• Air filter is not dusted and is free of dust and debris
• Generator is grounded
• Fuel cap is on
Start Up
• Disconnect any electrical devices from the generator.
• Make sure the generator is on a level surface.
• Check the exhaust is free from obstructions.
• Check the fuel shut tap is on.
• Always use fresh fuel.
• Check the engine switch is in the “ON” position.
• Check the choke is in the open position.
• Return choke to the closed position once running (petrol model only).
Shutdown
• Make sure all electrical devices, are disconnected from generator.
• Turn the fuel tap to the “OFF” position.
• Allow the generator to cool before moving or storing.
Cleaning
Keep the generator set clean and free of foreign material. Clean generator at least once
monthly. A soft brush may be used to loosen caked-on dirt. Use a soft, damp cloth to
wipe away loose dirt. To clean dirt from hidden or remote areas of the unit, use a dry,
filtered, low pressure air or vacuum system.
CAUTION: DO NOT use a forceful spray of water to clean the
generator. Water can penetrate generator’s electrical
system, which could reduce insulation resistance.
Possible generator failure may result.

page 17Genquip Gi3300 DSP Inverter Generator
Storage, Transportation & Servicing
Long term storage and transportation of your machine will require preventive procedures
to guard against deterioration.
Drain The Fuel
1. Remove the fuel tank cap. Drain the fuel tank into an approved gasoline container
using a commercially available hand siphon. Then, replace the fuel tank cap.
WARNING: Fuel is highly flammable and poisonous.
Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.
2. Drain fuel from the carburettor by loosening the drain screw on the carburettor float
chamber.
3. Turn the fuel cock lever to “OFF”. Start the engine and leave it running until it stops.
This will burn any remaining fuel in the carburettor.
Engine
1. Remove the spark plug. Pour about one tablespoon of SAE 10W30 or 20W40 motor
oil into the spark plug hole and reinstall the spark plug. Turn over engine several
times (with ignition off) to coat the cylinder walls with oil.
2. Pull the recoil starter until you feel compression, then stop pulling. This prevents the
cylinder and valves from rusting.
3. Clean exterior of the generator.
4. Store the generator in a dry, well- ventilated place, with the cover placed over it.
5. The generator must remain in a vertical position when stored, carried or operated.
Servicing
• First service - 20 hours.
• Service intervals thereafter - 50 hours.
If operating in hot dusty conditions, oil and air filters must be checked daily and service
intervals should be every 10 hours initially and every 25 hours thereafter.
