Operation - MULTIQUIP DA7000SSA2GH Operation And Parts Manual

Before Starting the Engine
CAUTION
The engine's exhaust contains harmful emissions.
ALWAYS have adequate ventilation when operating.
Direct exhaust away from nearby personnel.
NOTICE
The DA7000SSA2/SSA2GH generator is equipped with
a GFCI sensing module. The purpose of this module is
to sense a ground fault during operation of the generator
and open the main breaker once the ground fault has
been detected.
Multiquip recommends that the GFCI sensing module
be tested before each use of the generator. Refer to the
maintenance section of this manual for testing of the
GFCI module.
1. Open the cabinet door and turn the fuel cock lever
(Figure 18) to the "ON" position.
Figure 18. Fuel Cock Lever (ON)
2. NEVER operate the generator with the doors open
(Figure 19). Operation with the doors open may cause
insufficient cooling of the unit, and engine damage may
result. Close the doors for normal operation.

preheat light goes off, turn the key to the START
position to start the engine. As soon as the engine
starts, release the key. The key will automatically return
to the RUN position.
