GROUNDING
WARNING! BEFORE STARTING, YOUR GENERATOR MUST BE GROUNDED!
Before operating make sure to ground the generator. A ground terminal identified by the
ground symbol (A, Fig.5) can be found on the front control panel of the generator, attach
a metal spike to a wire, attach the wire to the ground terminal and ground the metal spike
into the earth. Your local electrical company or certified electrician should be able to help
you with this information. See Fig.5.
STARTING YOUR GENERATOR
WARNING! Do not adjust or attempt maintenance of engine without consulting an authorized service center.
Never run engine indoors or in enclosed, poor ventilated areas, engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an
odorless and deadly gas! Make sure all electrical appliances are unplugged before attempting to start the
generator!
To safely start your generator, follow each step below.
Remote control: Make sure the remote switch (#20 in the Getting to know your generator page) is in the On position before attempting to use the
remote control.
General notes: If using the recoil starter handle, pull until resistance is felt, then pull it out with a rapid full arm stroke. Let the starter rope rewind
slowly, repeat if necessary. Allow generator to run at no load for 5 minutes upon each initial start-up to allow engine and generator to stabilize. IF
