Your Digital Inverter Generator comes completely assembled, please proceed to the
pre-start check before attempting to start the engine.

PRE-START CHECK

WARNING! To prevent permanent damage to generator or any appliances, you
MUST connect the battery wires together, check oil level, fuel level, air cleaner
filter and unplug any load from the generator before starting.
OIL LEVEL
WARNING! This generator has been shipped from the factory without oil or very
little oil in the crankcase. Operating the unit without the correct amount of oil can
damage the engine. Oil crankcase capacity: 1 litre. Always check the oil level
before starting the generator, make sure the genarator is on a level surface. To
check oil level;
1) Remove the oil access cover as shown in Fig.1A.
2) Turn the oil gauge dipstick (A) Fig.1A counterclockwise, remove it and clean it with a
clean cloth.
3) Fully reinsert the oil gauge dipstick and pull it out to check the oil level.
4) If the oil level is halfway up the dipstick or below, refill with SAE 10W30 oil through the
dipstick hole (using the supplied oil fill container) until the oil level reaches 3/4 up the
dipstick or until it reaches the bottom lip of the dipstick hole as shown in illustration
Fig.1B.
5) Reposition the oil gauge dipstick and tighten it by turning clockwise. Reinstall oil access
cover.
FUEL LEVEL
WARNING! Make sure there is enough fuel in the fuel tank before operating.
1) If it is necessary to add fuel, first make sure the engine is OFF and preferably cool, then
open and remove the fuel cap (A) Fig.2 by turning it counterclockwise.
2) Make sure the fuel filter cup (B) is positioned inside the tank opening before refueling.
3) When refueling, keep in mind all safety precautions and make sure to add enough fuel
based on usage. Fill tank with gasoline, check the fuel level gauge (C) and stop when
it indicates FULL. Be careful not to spill gasoline or to overfill the tank. A full tank will
give you 7-8 hours of operation depending on the load. Use clean unleaded gasoline
with a minimum of 87 octane. Do not mix oil with gasoline. Fuel tank capacity: 13 Litres.
AIR CLEANER FILTER
WARNING! Never run the engine without the air cleaner filter installed. Rapid
engine wear will result.
The air cleaner filter should be checked before every start-up and after prolonged
storage to make sure it is clean and in good condition. The following steps should be done
when checking the air cleaner filter;
1) Remove the rear access cover as shown in Fig.3.
2) Undo the 2 pan head screws (A) Fig.3 which secure the air cleaner cartridge (B) to the
generator.
3) Slide the air cleaner cartridge out and remove the filter (C) from the air cleaner cartridge.
4) Wash filter in kerosene, squeeze kerosene out, soak filter in engine oil and squeeze
engine oil out.
5) Reposition filter in air cleaner cartridge and slide cartridge assembly back into the
generator, secure it in place using the same 2 pan head screws.
CONNECTING 12V BATTERY
To start the generator using the keyed switch or the remote control, the battery
wires (A) Fig.4 must first be connected.
1) Remove the rear access cover as shown in Fig.4.
