SAFETY INFORMATION
9 This generator is not designed for on-board use.
Do not use it while installed on the vehicle.
9 Do not modify the generator or use it with its parts
removed.
9 Do not allow children to operate the generator.
9 Be sure to carry the generator only by its carrying
handle.

Exhaust fumes are poisonous
9 Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN
MINUTES. Generator exhaust contains carbon
monoxide. This is a poison you cannot see or
smell.
9 NEVER use inside a home or garage, EVEN IF
doors and windows are open.
9 Only use OUTSIDE and far away from windows,
doors, and vents.
7DK-002
7DK-003
7DK-004
7DK-005
Engine and muffler may be hot
9 Place the generator in a place where pedestrians
or children are not likely to touch the machine.
Fuel is highly flammable and poisonous
9 Always turn off the engine when refuelling.
9 Never refuel while smoking or in the vicinity of an
open flame.
9 Take care not to spill any fuel on the engine or
muffler when refueling.
9 Do not leave the generator inside the vehicle or in
the trunk.
9 If you swallow any fuel, inhale fuel vapor, or allow
any to get in your eye(s), see your doctor immedi-
ately. If any fuel spills on your skin or clothing,
immediately wash with soap and water and
change your clothes.
9 When operating or transporting the generator, be
sure it is kept upright. If it tilts, fuel may leak from
the carburetor or fuel tank.

Electric shock prevention
9 Never operate the engine in rain or snow.
9 Never touch the generator with wet hands or elec-
trical shock will occur.
9 Connect the Ground (earth) terminal to a ground
source. In order to prevent electrical shock, the
generator must be grounded when using an elec-
trical device with a ground plug.
1 Ground (earth) terminal
9 Do not operate the engine with a dust cover or
other objects covering it.
9 When covering the generator, be sure to do so
only after the engine and muffler have completely
cooled down.
7DK-007
9 In order to prevent overheating, ensure adequate
airflow by keeping the machine at least 1 m (3 ft)
from objects or other equipment.
7DK-006
9 Avoid placing any flammable materials near the
exhaust outlet during operation.

Connection notes
9 Avoid connecting the generator to commercial
power outlet.
9 Avoid connecting the generator in parallel with any
other generator.
1 Correct
2 Incorrect
Connection
WARNING
Before the generator can be connected to a build-
ing’s electrical system, a licensed electrician must
install an isolation (transfer) switch in the build-
ing’s main fuse box. The switch is the connection
point for generator power and allows selection of
generator or main line power to the building. This
will prevent the generator from charging the main
power line (backfeeding) when the main power
supply has failed or has been turned off for line
repair. Backfeeding can electrocute or injure line
maintenance personnel. Also, generator and build-
ing electrical system damage can occur when nor-
mal operating power returns if unit is used without
an isolation switch.
Extension cord notes
Extension cords should be protected by a tough flexi-
ble rubber sheath (IEC 245) or the equivalent to with-
stand mechanical stresses.
9 Bury the ground (earth) using a steel or copper
bar into the ground more than 75 cm (29.53 in)
from the surface. The ground (earth) connection
rules may differ from country to country. Always
comply with the local regulations.
9 When the electric device is earthed, always the
generator must be earthed.
Recommended ground (earth) lead:
Cross-sectional area:
1.25 mm2 (0.002 sq.in)
Length:
Less than 1 m (39.37 in)

Oil warning light (Red)
When the oil level falls below the lower level, the oil
warning light comes on and then the engine stops
automatically. Unless you refill with oil, the engine will
not start again.
TIP
If the engine stalls or does not start, turn the engine
switch to ON and then pull the recoil starter. If the oil
warning light flickers for a few seconds, the engine oil
is insufficient. Add oil and restart.
CONTROL FUNCTION
Engine switch
The engine switch controls the ignition system.
1 “7” (ON)
Ignition circuit is switched on.
The engine can be started.
2 “5” (STOP)
Ignition circuit is switched off.
The engine will not run.
Recoil starter
The recoil starter is used to start the engine.
Pull the recoil starter slowly until it is engaged, then
pull it briskly.
1 Recoil starter handle
NOTICE
9 Pull the recoil starter handle straight.
9 Return the recoil starter handle slowly.
9 Do not touch the recoil starter handle while
the generator is operating.

DC protector
The DC protector turns to “3” (OFF) automatically
when electric device being connected to the generator
is operating and current above the rated flows. To use
this equipment again, turn on the DC protector by
pressing its button to “I” (ON).
1 “I” (ON)
Direct current is output. (This is the default position.)
2 “3” (OFF)
Direct current is not output.
NOTICE
Reduce the load of the connected electric device
below the specified rated output of the generator
if the DC protector turns off. If the DC protector
turns off again, stop using the device immediately
and consult a Yamaha dealer.

Economy control switch
1 “I”, “:

;” (ON)
When the economy control switch is turned to ON, the
economy control unit controls the engine speed
according to the connected load. The results are bet-
ter fuel consumption and less noise.
2 “3”, “:” (OFF)
When the economy control switch is turned to OFF,
the engine runs at the rated r/min (4,500 r/min)
regardless of whether is a load connected or not.
å For Australia
∫ For Europe, Korea and Argentina
TIP
The economy control switch must be turned to OFF
when using electric devices that require a large start-
ing current, such as a compressor of a submersible
pump.

Fuel tank cap
Remove the fuel tank cap by turning it counterclock-
wise.
Overload indicator light (Red)
The overload indicator light comes on when an over-
load of a connected electrical device is detected, the
inverter control unit overheats, or the AC output volt-
age rises. Then, the AC protector will trip, stopping
power generation in order to protect the generator and
any connected electric devices. The AC pilot light
(Green) will go off and the overload indicator light
(Red) will stay on, but the engine will not stop running.
1 Overload indicator light
å For Australia
∫ For Europe, Korea and Argentina
When the overload indicator light comes on and power
generation stops, proceed as follows:
1. Turn off any connected electric devices and stop
the engine.
2. Reduce the total wattage of connected electric
devices within the rated output.
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.
TIP
The overload indicator light may come on for a few
seconds at first when using electric devices that
require a large starting current, such as a compressor
or a submersible pump. However, this is not a mal-
function.

Fuel cock knob
The fuel cock supplies fuel from the fuel tank to the
carburetor.
The fuel cock has two positions.
1 ON
With the knob in this position, fuel flows to the carbu-
retor. Normal using is done with the knob in this posi-
tion.
2 OFF
With the knob in this position, fuel will not flow. Always
turn the knob to this position when the engine is not
running.
Ground (earth) terminal
Ground (earth) terminal connects the earth line for
prevention of electric shock.
When the electric device is grounded, be sure to
ground the generator also.
1 Ground (earth) terminal
Fuel tank cap air vent knob
The fuel tank cap is provided with an air vent knob to
stop fuel flow.
The air vent knob must be turned to ON. This will
allow fuel to flow to the carburetor and the engine to
run. When the engine is not in use, turn the air vent
knob to OFF to stop fuel flow.
