  • Page 6: Safety Instructions

    1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ■Our generators are designed to give safe and dependable service if operated according to instructions. Read and understand the owner's manual before operating the generator. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or equipment damage. ■Exhaust gas contains poisonous carbon monoxide.
  • Page 7 To ensure safe operation— ■ Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive under certain conditions. Refuel in a well ventilated area with the engine stopped. ■Keep away from smoking materials, sparks and other sources of combustion when refueling the generator. Always refuel in a well-ventilated location.

  • Page 9 2.2 Control panel 2.3 Serial Number and Bar Code Location: The engine serial number is stamped on the engine block to the left of the oil drain plug. In most cases the battery will have to be removed to view it clearly. Refer to this number when ordering parts or making technical inquiries.

  • Page 10: Pre-Operation Check

    3. PRE-OPERATION CHECK Be sure to check the generator on a level surface with the engine stopped. 3.1 Check the engine oil level. ■Using nondetergent oil or 2-stroke engine oil could shorten the engine's service life. ■Use a high-detergent, premium quality 4-stroke engine oil, certified to meet or exceed U.S.
  • Page 11 ■Running the engine with insufficient oil can cause serious engine damage. ■The Low Oil Alarm System will automatically stop the engine before the oil level falls below the safe limit. However, to avoid the inconvenience of an unexpected shutdown, it is still advisable to visually inspect the oil level regularly.
  • Page 12 Gasoline containing alternate fuels: If you decide to use a gasoline containing ethanol, be sure its octane rating is no lower than the specification. Do not use a blend that contains more than 10% ethanol. Do not use any gasoline containing methanol.

  • Page 13: Starting The Engine

    4. STARTING THE ENGINE ■When starting the generator after adding fuel for the first time or after long term storage, or after running out of fuel, turn the fuel valve lever to the "ON" position, then wait for 10 to 20 seconds before starting the engine.
  • Page 14 4.3 Insert the engine key and turn the engine switch to ON position. 4.4(a) Electric Start: turn the engine switch to the START until the engine has started. Do not operate the starter for more than 10 seconds. 4.4(b) Manual Start: pull the starter grip lightly until resistance is felt then pull the starter grip briskly toward the arrow as shown below.
  • Page 15 4.5 Push the choke knob to the OPEN position as the engine warms up. High altitude operation At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be excessively rich Performance will decrease, and fuel consumption will increase. High altitude performance can be improved by installing a smaller diameter main fuel jet in the carburetor. If you always operate the generator at altitudes higher than 5000 feet or 1500 meters above sea level, have your authorized dealer install a high altitude main jet.

  • Page 16: Generator Use

    5. GENERATOR USE ■To prevent electrical shock from faulty appliances, the generator should be grounded. Connect a length of heavy cable between the generator's ground terminal and an external ground source. ■Connections for standby power to a building's electrical system must be made by a qualified electrician and must comply with all applicable laws and electrical codes.
  • Page 17 ■Keep the generator away from other electric cables or wires such as commercial power supply lines. 5.1 AC applications 1. Start the engine and make sure the green output indicator light comes on. 2. Confirm that the appliance to be used is switched off then plug in the appliance. ■...
  • Page 18 5.3 SMART throttle Engine speed is kept at idle automatically when the electrical load is disconnected and returns to the proper speed by the electrical load when the load is reconnected. The engine speed varies according to the amount of load applied to the generator. Placing the smart throttle in the on position is recommended to minimize fuel consumption and engine noise while in operation.
  • Page 19 Reconnect the vehicle's ground cable after the charging cables are removed. This procedure will prevent the possibility of a short circuit and sparks if you make accidental contact between a battery terminal and the vehicle's frame or body. ■Do not attempt to start an automobile engine with the generator still connected to battery.

  • Page 23 7.3 Air cleaner service A dirty air cleaner will restrict airflow to the carburetor and allow dirt into the engine. Service the air cleaner regularly. Service more frequently when operating the generator in extremely dusty areas. ■Do not use gasoline or low flashpoint solvents for cleaning. They are flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
  • Page 24 7.5 Spark plug service Recommended spark plug: WR7DC To ensure proper engine operation, the spark plug must be properly gapped and free of deposits. 1. Open the left side maintenance cover. 2. Remove the spark plug cap. 3. Use the wrench to remove the spark plug. 4.
  • Page 25 7. Install the spark plug carefully, by hand, to avoid cross-threading. 8. After a new spark plug has been seated by hand, it should be tightened 1/2 turn with a wrench to compress the sealing washer. If a used plug is being reinstalled, it should only require 1/8 to 1/4 turn after being seated.

  • Page 26: Transporting/Storage

    8. TRANSPORTING/STORAGE 8.1 When transporting the generator, turn the fuel valve lever OFF and keep the generator level to prevent fuel spillage. Fuel vapors or spilled fuel may ignite. 8.2 Extended Storage: 1. Be sure the storage area is free of excessive humidity and dust.
