,
Slowly add unleaded fuel to red fuel level indicator (A)
in fuel tank. Be careful not to fill above the indicator.
This allows adequatespace for fuel expansion.
3. Install fuel cap and let any spilled fuel evaporate before
starting engine.
High Altitude
At altitudes over 5,000 feet (1524 meters), a minimum
85 octane / 85 AKI (89 RON) gasoline is acceptable. To
remain emissions compliant, high altitude adjustment is
required. Operation without this adjustment will cause
decreased performance, increased fuel consumption, and
increased emissions. See a Briggs & Stratton Authorized
Dealer for high altitude adjustment information. Operation of
the engine at altitudes below 2,500 feet (762 meters) with
the high altitude kit is not recommended.
Fuel Tank Cap Vent Lever
The fuel tank cap is provided with a vent lever (B) to seal the
fuel tank. The vent lever must be in the "ON" position for the
engine to run.
When the engine is not in use, leavethe vent lever in the
"OFF" position to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.Allow
the engine to cool before turning the vent lever to the "OFF"
position.
Grounding Fastener
The generator neutral is floating, which means that the AC
stator winding is isolated from the grounding fastener and
the AC receptacle ground pins. On a floating neutral
generator the AC receptacleground pins are not functional.
Electrical devices, such as a GFCI, requiring a functioning AC
receptacle ground pin will not operate.
Special Requirements
There may be Federal,local codes, or ordinances that apply
to the intended use of the generator. Pleaseconsult a
qualified electrician, electrical inspector, or the local agency
having jurisdiction:
. This generator has a floating neutral and is not for use
on job sites requiring a bonded neutral.

Clearances and Air Mevement
,A WARNING Exhaustheat/gases could ignite
combustibles, structures or damagefuel tank
causing a fire, resulting in death, serious injury
and/or property damage.
. Keepat least5 ft. (152cm) clearance on all sidesof generator
includingoverhead.
Placegenerator outdoors in an area that will not accumulate
deadly exhaust gas. DO NOT place generator where exhaust
gas (C) could accumulate and enter inside or be drawn into a
potentially occupied building. Ensureexhaust gas is kept
away from any windows, doors; ventilation intakes, or other
openings that can allow exhaust gas to collect in a confined
area. Prevailing winds and air currents should be taken into
consideration when positioning generator.
Using a generator indoors CAN KiLL YOU UNMINUTES,
Generator exhaust contains carbon monoxide, This is
a poison you cannot see or smell,
NEVER use inside a home Only use OUTSIDE and
or garage, EVEN iF doors far away from windows,
and windows are open, doors, and vents,
