CAUTION
WARNING

Generator battery

Your generator is equipped with an automatic battery charging
circuit that charges the battery while the engine is running.
The battery will maintain a proper charge if the unit is used on
a regular basis (about once every two weeks). If it is used less
frequently, the battery should be connected to a trickle charger
or battery maintainer (not included) to keep the battery properly
charged.
Maximum charging rate should not exceed 1.5 amps. Follow
the instructions included with the battery charger. The battery
should be fully charged at least once per month. If the battery is
not able to start the engine, it can be started by manually pulling
the engine recoil cord. If the battery voltage is extremely low, the
charging circuit may not be able to re-charge the battery. In this
case, the battery must be connected to a standard automotive
style battery charger for re-charging before it can be used.
Disconnect the Battery
1. Pull two halves of battery connector apart.
Charge the Battery
For a generator equipped with a battery for electric starting,
proper battery maintenance and storage should be followed.
A trickle charger or battery maintainer should be used to charge
the battery while the generator is in storage. Maximum charging
rate should not exceed 1.5 amps. Follow the instructions included
with the trickle charger or battery maintainer. The battery should
be fully charged at least once per month.
