  • Do not operate the generator when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
  • Do not use generator with electrical cords which are worn, frayed, bare, or otherwise damaged.
  • All electrical tools and appliances operated from this generator must be properly grounded by use of a third wire or be double-insulated.
  • When this generator is used to supply a building wiring system the generator must be installed by a qualified electrician and connected to a transfer switch as a separately derived system in accordance with NFPA 70, National Electrical Code.
  • If you begin to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using the generator, move to fresh air IMMEDIATELY. See a doctor, as you can have carbon monoxide poisoning.
  • Only use OUTSIDE and far away from windows, doors, and vents as recommended by the US Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Your specific home and/or wind conditions may require additional distance.

  • While operating and storing, keep at least five feet of clearance on all sides of the generator, including overhead. Allow the generator to cool a minimum of 30 minutes before storage. Heat created by the muffler and exhaust gases could be hot enough to cause serious burns and/or ignite combustible objects.

  • Do not touch the muffler or engine. They are very HOT and will cause severe burns. Do not put body parts or any flammable or combustible materials in the direct path of the exhaust.
  • Always remove any tools or other service equipment used during maintenance away from the generator before operating.
  • Avoid skin contact with engine oil or gasoline. Wear protective clothing and equipment. Wash all exposed skin with soap and water.

FUEL SAFETY

  • Store fuel in a container approved for gasoline.
  • Do not smoke when filling the generator with gasoline.
  • Do not allow the generator's gas tank to overflow when filling.
  • Shut down the engine and allow it to cool for two minutes before adding gasoline or oil to the generator.
  • Never remove the fuel cap when the generator is running. Shut off the engine and allow the unit to cool at least two minutes. Remove the fuel cap slowly to release pressure, keep fuel from escaping around the cap, and to avoid the heat from the muffler igniting fuel vapors. Tighten the fuel cap securely after refueling.
  • Wipe spilled fuel from the unit.
  • Never attempt to burn off spilled fuel.
  • Never overfill the fuel tank. Leave room for fuel to expand. Overfilling the fuel tank can result in a sudden overflow of gasoline and result in spilled gasoline coming in contact with HOT surfaces.
  • Spilled fuel can ignite. If fuel is spilled on the generator, wipe up any spills immediately. Dispose of rag properly. Allow area of spilled fuel to dry before operating the generator.
  • Wear eye protection while refueling.
  • Never use gasoline as a cleaning agent.
  • Store any containers containing gasoline in a wellventilated area, away from any combustibles or source of ignition.

GASOLINE AND GASOLINE VAPOR (GAS)


Fire and explosion hazard. Gasoline is highly explosive and flammable and can cause severe burns or death.

  • In case of a gas fire, do not attempt to extinguish the flame if the fuel tank valve is in the ON position. Introducing an extinguisher to a generator with an open fuel valve could create an explosion hazard.
  • Gas has a distinctive odor, this will help detect potential leaks quickly.
  • burn hazard Gas vapors can cause a fire if ignited.
  • Gasoline is a skin irritant and needs to be cleaned up immediately if it comes in contact with the skin.

When starting the generator:

  • Make sure that the fuel cap, air filter, spark plug, fuel lines, and exhaust system are properly in place.
  • If you spill any gasoline on the tank, allow it to fully evaporate before operating.

When transporting or servicing the generator:

  • Disconnect the spark boot to prevent accidental starting.

When storing the generator:

  • Store away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and other sources of ignition.
  • Do not store gasoline near furnaces, water heaters, or any other appliances that produce heat or have automatic ignitions.

GROUNDING


Shock hazard. Failure to properly ground the generator can result in electric shock.

NOTICE
Only use grounded 3-prong extension cords, tools, and appliances, or double-insulated tools and appliances.

shock hazard The generator neutral is bonded to the frame. There is a permanent conductor between the generator (stator wire) and the frame. If this generator will be used only with cord and plug equipment connected to the receptacles mounted on the generator, National Electric Code does not require that the unit be grounded. However, other methods of using the generator may require grounding to reduce the risk of shock or electrocution.

Before using the ground terminal, consult a qualified electrician, electrical inspector, or local agency having jurisdiction for local codes or ordinances that apply to the intended use of the generator.

DISCONNECTING THE BONDED NEUTRAL
Removing the bonded neutral disables the GFCI protection from the 5-20R receptacles. The bonded neutral should only be removed under specific circumstances. Consult a qualified electrician to determine if your situation requires disconnecting the bonded neutral.

  1. Remove the alternator cover.
  2. Remove the bonded jumper wire and reinstall the nut.
    DISCONNECTING THE BONDED NEUTRAL - Step 1
  1. Remove the nut securing the neutral ground wire and attach the bonded jumper wire. Reinstall the nut.

FREQUENCY OF USE

If the generator will be used on an infrequent or intermittent basis (more than one month before next use), refer to the Battery Maintenance and Storage sections of this manual for information regarding battery charging and fuel deterioration.

AC CIRCUIT BREAKERS

The circuit breakers will automatically switch OFF if there is a short circuit or a significant overload of the generator at each receptacle. The main circuit breaker will automatically switch OFF if the combined load of the receptacles exceeds 40 Amps.

If an AC circuit breaker switches OFF automatically, check that the appliance is working correctly and it does not exceed the rated load capacity of the circuit before resetting the AC circuit breaker ON.

Receptacle Circuit Breakers Main Circuit Breaker

DEVICE CAPACITY

NOTICE
Do not overload the generator's capacity. Exceeding the generator's wattage/amperage capacity can damage the generator and/or electrical devices connected to it.

Make sure the generator can supply enough continuous (running) and surge (starting) watts for the items you will power at the same time.

The total power requirements (Volts x Amps = Watts) of all appliances connected must be considered. Appliance and power tool manufacturers usually list rating information near the model or serial number.

To determine power requirements:

  1. Select the items you will power at the same time.
  2. Total the continuous (running) watts of these items. This is the amount of power the generator must produce to keep the items running. See the wattage reference chart on the next page.
  3. Estimate how many surge (starting) watts you will need. Surge wattage is the short burst of power needed to start electric motor-driven tools or appliances such as a circular saw or refrigerator. Because not all motors start at the same time, total surge watts can be estimated by adding only the item(s) with the highest additional surge watts to the total rated watts from step 2.

Example:

Tool or Appliance Running Watts* Starting Watts*
RV Air Conditioner (11,000 BTU) 1010 1600
TV (Tube Type) 300 0
RV Refrigerator 180 600
Radio 200 0
Light (75 Watts) 300 0
Coffee Maker 600 0
2590 Total Running Watts* 1600 Highest Starting Watts*
Total Running Watts 2590
Highest Starting Watts + 1600
Total Starting Watts Needed 4190

*Wattages listed are approximate. Verify actual wattage.

POWER MANAGEMENT

To prolong the life of the generator and attached devices, use care when adding electrical loads to the generator. There should be nothing connected to the generator outlets before starting the engine. The correct and safe way to manage generator power is to sequentially add loads as follows:

  1. With nothing connected to the generator, start the engine as described in this manual.
  2. Plug in and turn on the first load, preferably the largest load you have.
  3. Permit the generator output to stabilize (engine runs smoothly and attached device operates properly).
  4. Plug in and turn on the next load.
  5. Again, permit the generator to stabilize.
  6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each additional load.

EXTENSION CORDS


Asphyxiation hazard. Extension cords running directly into the home increase the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning through any openings. If an extension cord running directly into your home is used to power indoor items, there is a risk of carbon monoxide poisoning to people inside the home. Always use battery-powered carbon monoxide detector (s) that meet current UL 2034 safety standards when running the generator. Regularly check the detector (s) battery.


Asphyxiation hazard. When operating the generator with extension cords, make sure the generator is located in an open, outdoor area, far away from occupied spaces with exhaust pointed away.


Fire and electrocution hazard. Never use worn or damaged extension cords. Damaged or overloaded extension cords could overheat, arc, and burn resulting in death or serious injury.

Before connecting an AC appliance or power cord to the generator:

  • Use grounded 3-prong extension cords, tools, and appliances, or double-insulated tools and appliances.
  • shock hazard Make sure the tool or appliance is in good working order. Faulty appliances or power cords can create a potential for electric shock.
  • Make sure the electrical rating of the tool or appliance does not exceed the rated power of the generator or the receptacle being used.

EXTENSION CORD SIZING

Only use grounded 3-prong extension cords marked for outdoor use that are rated for the electrical load.

STORAGE

Proper storage preparation is required for trouble-free operation and generator longevity.

NOTICE
Gasoline stored for as little as 30 days can deteriorate, causing gum, varnish, and corrosive buildup in fuel lines, fuel passages, and the engine. This corrosive buildup restricts the flow of fuel, which can prevent the engine from starting after a prolonged storage period. The use of fuel stabilizer significantly increases the storage life of gasoline. Full-time use of fuel stabilizer is recommended. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for use.

STORAGE TIME RECOMMENDED PROCEDURE
Less than 1 month No service required.
2 to 6 months Fill with fresh gasoline and add gasoline stabilizer. Drain the carburetor float bowl.
6 months or longer Drain the fuel tank and carburetor float bowl.

SHORT TERM STORAGE

  • Allow the generator to cool a minimum of 30 minutes before storage.
  • Replace all protective covers on the generator control panel.
  • Wipe the generator with a moist cloth. Clean any debris from the muffler cooling vents.
  • Store the generator in a well-ventilated, dry location away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and other sources of ignition such as areas with a sparkproducing electric motor or where power tools are operated.
  • Do not store the generator or gasoline near furnaces, water heaters, or any other appliances that produce heat or have automatic ignitions.
  • With the engine and exhaust system cool and all surfaces dry, cover the generator to keep out dust. Do not use a plastic sheet as a dust cover. Non-porous materials trap moisture and promote rust and corrosion.

LONG TERM STORAGE

Even properly stabilized fuel can leave residue and cause corrosion if left long term. If storing the generator for two to six months, drain the float bowl to prevent gum and varnish buildup in the carburetor.

DRAINING THE FLOAT BOWL

  1. Turn the fuel tank valve to the OFF position.
  2. Locate the drain screw on the bottom of the carburetor float bowl.
    DRAINING THE FLOAT BOWL
  3. Place an appropriate gasoline container under the drain screw to catch the drained fuel.
  4. Loosen the float bowl drain screw and allow the fuel to drain. Tighten the float bowl drain screw.

DRAINING THE FUEL TANK

If storing the generator for longer than six months, drain the fuel tank to prevent fuel separation, deterioration, and deposits in the fuel system.

  1. Unscrew the fuel tank cap. Remove the fuel screen filter by slightly compressing it while removing it from the tank.
  2. Using a commercially available gasoline hand pump (not included), siphon the gasoline from the fuel tank into an approved gasoline container. DO NOT use an electric pump.
  3. Reinstall the fuel screen filter and the fuel tank cap.
  4. Start the generator and allow it to run until the generator engine stops.
  5. Push the battery switch to the OFF position.
  6. Disconnect the battery quick-connect plugs.
  7. Remove the spark plug.
  8. Put a teaspoon of engine oil into the cylinder and pull the recoil handle until resistance is felt. At this position the piston is coming up on its compression stroke and both valves are closed. Storing the engine in this position will help prevent internal corrosion. Return the recoil handle gently.
  9. Reinstall the spark plug. Leave the spark plug boot disconnected to prevent accidental starting.

VALVE CLEARANCE

NOTICE
Checking and adjusting valve clearance must be done when the engine is cold.

  1. Remove the rocker arm cover and carefully remove the gasket. If the gasket is torn or damaged, it must be replaced.
  2. Remove the spark plug so the engine can be rotated more easily.
  3. Rotate the engine to top dead center (TDC) by pulling the recoil handle slowly. Looking through the spark plug hole, the piston should be at the top (both valves are closed).
  4. Both the rocker arms should be loose at TDC on the compression stroke. If they are not, rotate the engine 360°.
  5. Insert a feeler gauge between the rocker arm and the valve stem to measure valve clearance.
Intake Valve Exhaust Valve
Valve Clearance 0.0031 – 0.0047 in
(0.08 – 0.12 mm)
0.0051 – 0.0067 in
(0.13 – 0.17 mm)
Torque 8-12 N•m 8-12 N•m
  1. If an adjustment is necessary, hold the rocker arm pivot and loosen the pivot adjusting nut.
  2. Turn the rocker arm pivot to obtain the specified clearance. Hold the rocker arm pivot and re-tighten the pivot adjusting nut to the specified torque.
    Torque: 106 inch-pound (12 N•m)
  3. Perform this procedure for the other valve.
  4. Install the gasket, rocker arm cover, and spark plug.
