Starting Your Gasoline Generator - Benchmark Midland Power BG Series Manual

4.1 STARTING YOUR GASOLINE GENERATOR

OPEN
NOTE
If your generator is a dual fuel or tri-fuel model, go to section 4.2 for
4
starting instructions.
The choke is automatically controlled during remote start, but must be
manually operated during electric or recoil start.
Do not push the choke lever to the START/CLOSED position when the
engine is hot or ambient air temperature is high.
If recoil starting, return the starter grip slowly by hand, do not let it snap
back.
If there is no electric-start battery in the generator or the battery has
died, the generator can only be started using the recoil method. If there
is a battery and it is drained, running the generator will recharge the
battery.
