To start the generator, hold the switch in the START
position until the unit starts, then release the switch. If

avoid overheating the generator starting motor and may
prevent damage to the starting system. If this system

are indicated in the General Power Plant Manufacturers
Instructions. To stop the unit, hold switch to the STOP
position until the engine stops operating.

tioner, as shown in Figure 11. These are a blower

LIQUID PETROLEUM GAS SYSTEM
Liquid Petroleum Gas (LP) gas is the energy source for
your range, oven, and furnace. It is also an alternate
power source for your LP gas/electric refrigerator.
LP gas is a colorless gas, but is stored under pressure as a
liquid. The tanks are located in one of the compart-
ments accessible on the outside of the vehicle. It is com-
mercially available under such names as Butane, Propane
or other brand names. Though odorless in a natural
state, LP gas is always odorized to smell like garlic for
easy detection in the event of a leak. The gas and the
liquid tank in which it is stored are safe and convenient,
provided sensible precautions are followed.
CAUTION
LP GAS IS FLAMEABLE AND POTENTIALLY EX-
PLOSIVE. USE PROPER HANDLING, LIGHTING
AND VENTILATING PROCEDURES. AS A GAS, LP
GAS IS HEAVIER THAN AIR AND WILL DISSIPATE
IF VENTILATION IS PROVIDED TO PERMIT A
12 DOWNWARD FLOW.
