SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
CARBON MONOXIDE-POISONOUS
GAS Use generator outdoors, away
from open windows, vents, or doors.
Generator exhaust contains carbon
monoxide - a poisonous gas that can
kill you. You CAN NOT smell or see
this gas. Never use a generator in
enclosed or partially-enclosed spaces.
Generators can produce high levels of
carbon monoxide very quickly.
When you use a portable generator,
remember that you cannot smell or
see carbon monoxide.
Even if you can’t smell exhaust fumes,
you may still be exposed to carbon
monoxide. If you start to feel sick,
dizzy, or weak while using a
generator, get to fresh air RIGHT
AWAY. DO NOT DELAY. The carbon
monoxide from generators can
rapidly lead to full incapacitation and
death.
If you experience serious symptoms,
get medical attention immediately.
Inform medical staff that carbon
monoxide poisoning is suspected. If
you experienced symptoms while
indoors, have someone call the fire
department to determine when it is
safe to re-enter the building.
Never operate the generator in an
explosive atmosphere, near
combustible materials or where
ventilation is not sufficient to carry
away exhaust fumes.
Exhaust fumes can cause serious
injury or death.
NEVER use a generator indoors,
including in homes, garages,
basements, crawl spaces, and other
enclosed or partially-enclosed areas,
even with ventilation. Opening doors
and windows or using fans will not
prevent carbon monoxide build-up in
the home.
Follow the instructions that come
with your generator. Locate the
unit outdoors and away from doors,
windows, and vents that could allow
the carbon monoxide gas to come
indoors.
ONLY run generator outdoors and
away from air intakes.
NEVER run generator inside homes,
garages, sheds, or other
semi-enclosed spaces. These spaces
can trap poisonous gases EVEN IF
you run a fan or open doors and
windows.
If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak
while using the generator, shut if off
and get fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a
doctor. You may have carbon
monoxide poisoning.
Install battery-operated carbon
monoxide alarms or plug-in carbon
monoxide alarms with battery back-
up in your home, according to the
manufacturer’s installation
instructions.
The carbon monoxide alarms should
be certified to the requirements of
the latest safety standards for carbon
monoxide alarms. (UL 2034, IAS 6-96,
or CSA 6.19.01).
Test your carbon monoxide alarm
frequently and replace dead batteries.
SAFETY WARNING WHEN REFUELING
Gasoline is extremely flammable and
its vapors can explode if ignited.
Observe all safety regulations for the
safe handling of fuel. Handle fuel in
safety containers. If the container
does not have a spout, use a funnel.
Do not overfill the fuel tank, leave
room for the fuel to expand.
Do not refill fuel tank while the
engine is running. Before refueling the
generator, turn it off and let it cool
down. Gasoline spilled on hot engine
parts could ignite. Fill the tank only on
an area of bare ground. While fueling
the tank, keep heat, sparks and open
flame away. Carefully clean up any
spilled fuel before starting engine.
Always fill fuel tank in an area with
plenty of ventilation to avoid inhaling
dangerous fumes.
NEVER store fuel for your generator
in the home. Gasoline, propane,
kerosene, and other flammable liquids
should be stored outside of living
areas in properly-labeled, non-glass
safety containers. Do not store them
near a fuel-burning appliance, such as
a natural gas water heater in a
garage. If the fuel is spilled or the
container is not sealed properly,
invisible vapors from the fuel can
travel along the ground and can be
ignited by the appliance pilot light or
by arcs from electric switches in the
appliance.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. If it
should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to
reduce the risk of electric shock.
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electrocution. Check with a qualified
electrician or service person if you
are in doubt as to whether the unit is
properly grounded.
The ground terminal on the frame
must always be 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 two star
washers and nut then tighten the nut
fully. Connect the other end of the
wire securely to a suitable ground
source.
The National Electric Code contains
several practical ways in which to
establish a good ground source.
Examples given below illustrate a few
of the ways in which a good ground
source may be established.
2

Smart Generators Operating Instructions SG12003
A metal underground water pipe
in direct contact with the earth
for at least 10 feet can be used as
a grounding source. If an pipe is
unavailable, an 8 foot length of pipe or
rod may be used as the ground
source.
The pipe should be 3/4 inch trade size
or larger and the outer surface must
be non corrosive. If a steel or iron rod
is used it should be at least 5/8 inch
diameter and if a nonferrous rod is
used it should be at least 1/2 inch
diameter and be listed as material for
grounding. Drive the rod or pipe to a
depth of 8 feet. If a rock bottom is
encountered less than 4 feet down,
bury the rod or pipe in a trench. 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
power cords.
2. Use an extension cord with a 3 hole
receptacle and a 3 prong plug at the
opposite ends to ensure continuity of
the ground protection from the
generator to appliance.
We strongly recommend that all
applicable federal, state and local
regulations relating to grounding
specifications be checked and
followed.
LINE TRANSFER SWITCH
If this generator is used for standby
service, it must have a transfer switch
between the utility power service and
the generator. The transfer switch not
only prevents the utility power form
feeding into the generator, but is also
prevents the generator from feeding
out into the utility company’s lines.
This is intended to protect the
serviceman who may be working on a
damaged line.
THIS INSTALLATION MUST BE DONE BY
A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN AND ALL
LOCAL CODES MUST BE FOLLOWED.
ENGINE OIL
Oil is a major factor affecting
performance and service life. Use 4-
stroke automotive detergent oil.
Recommended Oil: Use 4-stroke
motor oil that meets or exceeds
the requirements for API service
classification SJ, SL, or equivalent.
Always check the API service label on
the oil container to be sure it includes
the letters SJ, SL, or equivalent.
SAE 10W-30 is recommended for
general use. Other viscosities shown
in the chart may be used when the
average temperature in your area is
within the indicated range.
Pre-Operation
FUELING
To fill with oil:
1. Level the engine to ensure accurate
inspection and to prevent overfilling.
2. Remove the dipstick and wipe it
clean.
3. Fully insert the dipstick, then
remove it to check the oil level.
NOTE: When checking the oil be sure the
engine is level.
4. If the oil level is low, remove the
oil filler cap, and fill to the upper
limit mark on the dipstick with the
recommended oil.
5. Reinstall the dipstick and filler cap.
NOTE: Running the engine with a low
oil level can cause engine damage.
The Oil Alert system (applicable
types) will automatically stop the
engine before the oil level falls below
the safe limit. However, to avoid the
inconvenience of an unexpected
shutdown, always check the engine oil
level before startup.
WARNING! EXPLOSIVE FUEL! GASOLINE
IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE AND ITS
VAPORS CAN EXPLODE IF IGNITED.
STORE GASOLINE ONLY IN APPROVED
CONTAINERS, IN WELL VENTILATED,
UNOCCUPIED BUILDINGS AND AWAY
FROM SPARKS OR FLAMES.
DO NOT FILL THE FUEL TANK WHILE
THE ENGINE IS HOT OR RUNNING,
SINCE
SPILLED FUEL COULD IGNITE IF IT
COMES IN CONTACT WITH HOT PARTS
OR SPARKS FROM IGNITION. DO NOT
START THE ENGINE NEAR SPILLED
FUEL.
NEVER USE GASOLINE AS A CLEANING
AGENT.
DO NOT OVERFILL THE FUEL TANK,
LEAVE ROOM FOR THE FUEL TO
EXPAND.
GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
• Purchase gasoline in small
quantities and store in clean,
approved containers.
• To minimize gum deposits in your
fuel system and to insure easy
starting, do not use gasoline left
over from the previous season.
• Do not add oil to the gasoline.
FUEL TYPE
• For best results use only clean,
fresh, unleaded gasoline with a
pump sticker octane rating of 87 or
higher.
• Unleaded gasoline is
recommended as it leaves less
combustion chamber deposits.
Gasoline/Alcohol Blends:
Gasohol (up to 10% ethyl alcohol,
90% unleaded gasoline by volume)
is approved, as a fuel. Other
gasoline/ alcohol blends are not
approved.
Gasoline/Ether Blends:
Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE)
and unleaded gasoline blends (up
to a maximum of 15% MTBE by
volume) are approved as a fuel.
Other gasoline/ether blends are not
approved.

Smart Generators Operating Instructions SG12003
HIGH ALTITUDE
At high altitude, the standard
carburetor air/fuel mixture will be
too rich.
Performance will decrease, and fuel
consumption will increase. A very
rich mixture will also foul the spark
plug and cause hard starting.
Operation at an altitude that differs
from that at which this engine was
certified, for extended periods of
time, may increase emissions.
High altitude performance can be
improved by specific modifications
to the carburetor. If you always
operate your generator at altitudes
above 5,000 feet (1,500 meters),
have your dealer perform this
carburetor modification. This
engine, when operated at high
altitude with the carburetor
modifications for high altitude use,
will meet each emission standard
throughout its useful life. Even with
carburetor modification, engine
horsepower will decrease about
3.5% for each 1,000-foot
(300-meter) increase in altitude.
The effect of altitude on
horsepower will be greater than
this if no carburetor modification is
made.
NOTE:When the carburetor has been
modified for high altitude operation,
the air/fuel mixture will be too lean for
low altitude use. Operation at altitudes
below 5,000 feet (1,500 meters) with
a modified carburetor may cause the
engine to overheat and result in serious
engine damage. For use at low altitudes,
have your servicing dealer return the
carburetor to original factory
specifications.
