Generator Location
Please consult your local authority. In some areas,
generators must be registered with the local utility.
Generators used at construction sites may be subject to
additional rules and regulations.
This generator must have at least five feet of clearance
from combustible material. Leave at least three feet
of clearance on all sides of the generator to allow for
adequate cooling, maintenance and servicing.
Place the generator in a well-ventilated area. DO NOT
place the generator near vents or intakes where exhaust
fumes could be drawn into occupied or confined
spaces. Carefully consider wind and air currents when
positioning generator.
Grounding
The generator system ground connects the frame to the
ground terminals on the power panel.
The generator (stator winding) is isolated from the frame
and from the AC receptacle ground pin. Electrical devices
that require a grounded receptacle pin connection may not
function properly.
Surge Protection
Electronic devices, including computers and many
programmable appliances use components that are
designed to operate within a narrow voltage range and
may be affected by momentary voltage fluctuations.
While there is no way to prevent voltage fluctuations, you
can take steps to protect sensitive electronic equipment.
1. Install UL1449, CSA-listed, plug-in surge suppressors
on the outlets feeding your sensitive equipment.
Surge suppressors come in single- or multi-outlet
styles. They’re designed to protect against virtually
all short-duration voltage fluctuations.
Voltage fluctuation may impair the proper
functioning of sensitive electronic equipment.
CAUTION
OPERATION
Starting the Engine
1. Make certain the generator is on a flat, level surface.
2. Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator.
Never start or stop the generator with electrical
devices plugged in or turned on.
3. Turn the Fuel Valve to the “ON” position.
4. Flip the ignition switch to the “ON” position.
5. Move the choke lever to the “CHOKE” position.
6. RECOIL START: Pull the starter cord slowly until
resistance is felt and then pull rapidly
7. Do not over-choke. As as soon as engine starts, move
the choke lever to the “RUN” position.
If the engine starts but does not run make certain
that the generator is on a flat, level surface. The
engine is equipped with a low oil sensor that will
prevent the engine from running when the oil level
falls below a critical threshold.
NOTE
Keep choke lever in “Choke” position for only 1
pull of the recoil starter. After first pull, move choke
lever to the “Runposition for up to the next 3
pulls of the recoil starter. Too much choke leads to
sparkplug fouling/engine flooding due to the lack of
incoming air. This will cause the engine not to start.
