  • Page 24: Low Oil Alarm System

    Low oil alarm system The low oil alarm system is designed to prevent engine damage caused by an insufficient amount of oil in the crankcase. Before the oil level in the crankcase falls below a safe limit, the low oil alarm system will automatically shut down the engine (the engine switch will remain in the ON position).
  • Page 25 Smart Throttle System When the smart throttle switch is placed in the on position, engine speed is kept at idle automatically when the electrical load is disconnected and returns to the proper speed to match the power of the electrical load when the load is reconnected. This position is recommended to minimize fuel consumption while in operation.

  • Page 26: High Altitude Operation

    High altitude operation At higher altitudes, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be excessively rich. Performance will decrease, and fuel consumption will increase. Power output will decrease 3.5% for each 1000 feet (305 meters) above sea level. High altitude performance can be improved by installing a smaller diameter main fuel jet in the carburetor.
