BUILT TO LAST
Description
These units are powered by air-cooled
four cycle engines and designed to run
at maximum RPM and give a
continuous wattage as rated. On
certain models, a low-oil level shutoff
is provided to protect the engine. This
feature is usually associated with
extended run models. The alternator is
thermostatically protected. To operate
this unit as a generator or welder, set
the switch on the front panel
accordingly
Unpacking
When unpacking, inspect carefully for
any damage that may have occurred
during transit. Make sure any loose
fittings, bolts, etc., are tightened
before putting unit into service. Report
any missing items by calling 1-800-746-
5641.
