5. Slowly pull the starter cord 3-5 times to prime the engine.
6. Turn the EZ Start dial to the propane "RUN" position.
7. When starting the engine, pull the recoil cord slowly until
resistance is felt, release cord back and use one strong rapid
pull to start, this avoids any kickback or damage to the recoil
assembly. Rigorously pulling will result in damage to the
recoil assembly and void any warranty.

Accumulation of frost on LPG cylinder and regulators is
common during operation and normally is not an indication
of a problem. As LPG vaporizes and travels from the cylinder
to the generator engine it expands. The amount of frost that
forms can be affected by the size of the cylinder, the amount
of LPG being used, the humidity of the air and other operating
conditions.
In unusual situations this frost may eventually restrict the flow
of LPG to the generator resulting in deteriorating performance.
For example, if the cylinder temperature is reduced to a very
low level then the rate at which the LPG vaporizes is also
reduced and may not provide sufficient flow to the engine. This
is not an indication of a problem with the generator but only
a problem with the flow of LPG from the cylinder. If generator
performance seems to be deteriorating at the same time that
ice formation is observed on tank valve, hose or regulator then
some actions may be taken to eliminate this symptom.
In these rare situations it can be helpful to reduce or eliminate
the cold fuel system effects by doing one of the following:
– Exchanging fuel cylinders to allow the first cylinder to
warm up, repeating as necessary.
– Placing the cylinder at the end of the generator near the
handle, where engine fan air flows out from the generator.
This air is slightly heated by flowing over the engine. The
cylinder should not be placed in the path of the muffler
outlet.
– The cylinder can be temporarily warmed by pouring warm
water over the top of the cylinder.
