  • Page 9: Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter Protection

    SAFETY Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter Protection These generators are equipped with a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters) 120V duplex receptacles for protection against the hazards of electrical shock from defective attachments such as, tools, cords, and cables. WARNING The GFCI may not function unless the generator is properly grounded.
  • Page 10 SAFETY This product has been designed with internal grounding or floating bonded neutral. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. DANGER Improper grounding can result in a risk of electrocution. Check with a qualified electrician for your local requirements if you are in doubt as to whether the unit is properly grounded.
  • Page 11 SAFETY Important Safety Instructions WARNING To reduce the risk of injury, read this operator’s manual completely before using. When using this product, the following basic precautions should always be followed. • Do not enclose the generator or cover it. The generator may become overheated if it is enclosed.

    PREPARING THE GENERATOR Grounding Instructions DANGER Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrocution. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the unit is properly grounded for your local regulations. The ground terminal on the frame can be used to connect the generator to a suitable ground source.
  • Page 15: Pre-Operation Checklist

    PRE-OPERATION CHECKLIST Engine Oil Before checking or refilling oil, be sure the generator is placed on a stable and level surface with the engine stopped. This generator uses SAE 10W30 oil. 1. Remove oil dipstick and check the engine oil level. 2.
  • Page 16: General Recommendations

    PRE-OPERATION CHECKLIST WARNING DO NOT overfill the tank, leave room for the fuel to expand. 1. If fuel level is low, refill with unleaded automotive gasoline. 2. Check fuel gauge while filling. 3. When using the generator for the first time or stopping due to the fuel running out, pull the recoil handle several times after filling the tank.
  • Page 17: Check Generator Surroundings

    PRE-OPERATION CHECKLIST Check Generator Surroundings When listening to a radio near the generator, the radio sound may be disturbed on account of the radio wave conditions and the radio performance from the generator. WARNING Keep area clear of flammables or other hazardous mate- rials.
  • Page 18 STARTING YOUR GENERATOR 3. Pull the recoil starter handle slowly until passing the compression point (resistance will be felt), then return the handle to its original position and pull briskly. 4. After starting, allow the recoil starter handle to return to its original position with the handle still in your hand.
  • Page 19: Electric Start

    STARTING YOUR GENERATOR Electric Start 1. Make sure all appliances are disconnected from the generator. 2. Turn engine choke switch to the START (ON) position. (When the engine is warm or temperature is high, start engine with the choke switch in the “OFF” position). 3.

    OPERATION Using Electric Power WARNING Risk of electrocution. Make sure that the appliance is switched off before connecting it to the generator. • DO NOT move the generator while it is running. AC Application 1. Make sure the voltage indicated on the voltmeter is at the normal level (approx.
  • Page 21: Dc Application

    OPERATION DC Application The DC terminal is used for trickle charging 12 volt batteries or low amperage drawing DC tools or appliances.. It provides 12V - 8.3A (100W) of maximum power. Connection of Cable Connect positive terminal (red) on generator to positive (+) terminal on battery.
  • Page 22: Wattage Information

    OPERATION Wattage Information Some appliances need a “surge” of energy when starting. This means that the amount of electrical power needed to start the appliance may exceed the amount needed to maintain its use. Electrical appliances and tools normally come with a label indicating voltage, cycles / Hz, amperage (amps) and electrical power needed to run the appliance or tool.
  • Page 23: Spark Arrester

    OPERATION Spark Arrester The spark arrester must be cleaned regularly to keep it functioning as designed. A clogged spark arrester: • Prevents the flow of exhaust gas • Reduces engine output • Increases fuel consumption • Makes starting difficult CAUTION If engine has been running, the muffler and the spark arrester will be very hot.
  • Page 24: Stopping The Generator

    STOPPING THE GENERATOR Stopping The Generator 1. Turn off the power switch of the electric equipment and unplug the cord from receptacle of the generator. 2. Allow the engine about 3 minutes to cool down without load before stopping. 3. Push the engine switch to the OFF position. 4.
