STARTING THE ENGINE

To prevent a possible fire, keep the generator at least 3 feet (1 meter)
away from building walls and other equipment during operation. Do not
place flammable objects close to the engine.
• Operating this generator less than 3 feet (1 meter) from a building or
other obstruction can cause overheating and damage the generator.
• For proper cooling, allow at least 3 feet (1 meter) of empty space
above and around the generator.
Keep all cooling holes open and clear of debris, mud, water, etc.
Cooling holes are located on the side panel, the control panel, and
the bottom of the generator. If the cooling holes are blocked, the
generator may overheat and damage the engine, inverter, or
windings.

the IS YOUR GEN ERATOR READY TO GO? checks (see page 20).
Refer to the AC OPERATION (see page 30) for connecting loads to the
