any fan guard or shield while the unit is operating.

• Certain parts of the generator get extremely hot during operation. Keep clear of the generator until

the generator has cooled to avoid severe burns.

• Do NOT operate generator in the rain.

• Do not alter the construction of the generator or change controls which might create an unsafe

operating condition.

• Never start or stop the unit with electrical loads connected to receptacles AND with connected

devices turned ON. Start the engine and let it stabilize before connecting electrical loads. Disconnect

all electrical loads before shutting off the generator.

• Do not insert objects through unit’s cooling slots.

• When working on this equipment, remain alert at all times.

• Never work on the equipment when physically or mentally fatigued.

• Never use the generator or any of its parts as a step. Stepping on the unit can stress and break parts,

and may result in dangerous operating conditions from leaking exhaust gases, fuel leakage, oil

leakage, etc.

• On electric start models, disconnect the POSITIVE (+) battery cable from the engine starter OR the

NEGATIVE (-) battery cable from the battery terminal, whichever is easier, before transporting the

generator.

EXHAUST & LOCATION HAZARDS

• NEVER use inside, or in partly enclosed areas such as garages, EVEN IF doors and windows are

open! ONLY use outdoors and far from windows, doors and vents. Only use in an area that will not

accumulate deadly exhaust.

ELECTRICAL HAZARDS

• The generator produces dangerously high voltage when in operation. Avoid contact with bare wires,

terminals, connections, etc., while the unit is running, even on equipment connected to the generator.

Ensure all appropriate covers, guards and barriers are in place before operating the generator.

• Never handle any kind of electrical cord or device while standing in water, while barefoot or while

hands or feet are wet.

DANGEROUS ELECTRICAL SHOCK MAY RESULT

• The National Electric Code (NEC) requires the frame and external electrically conductive parts of the

generator be properly connected to an approved ground. Local electrical codes may also require

proper grounding of the generator. Consult with a local electrician for grounding requirements in the

area.

• Use a ground fault circuit interrupter in any damp or highly conductive area (such as metal decking or

steel work).

• Do not use worn, bare, frayed or otherwise damaged electrical cord sets with the generator.

• Before performing any maintenance on the generator, disconnect the engine starting battery (if

equipped) to prevent accidental start up. Disconnect the cable from the battery post indicated by a

NEGATIVE, NEG or (–) first. Reconnect that cable last.

• In case of accident caused by electric shock, immediately shut down the source of electrical power. If

this is not possible, attempt to free the victim from the live conductor. AVOID DIRECT CONTACT

WITH THE VICTIM. Use a non-conducting implement, such as a rope or board, to free the victim from

the live conductor. If the victim is unconscious, apply first aid and get immediate medical help.

FIRE HAZARDS

• Gasoline is highly FLAMMABLE and its vapours are EXPLOSIVE. Do not permit smoking, open

flames, sparks or heat in the vicinity while handling gasoline.

• Never add fuel while unit is running or hot. Allow engine to completely cool before adding fuel.

• Never fill fuel tank indoors. Comply with all laws regulating storage and handling of gasoline.

• Do not overfill the fuel tank. Always allow room for fuel expansion. If tank is over-filled, fuel can

overflow onto a hot engine and cause FIRE or an EXPLOSION. Never store generator with fuel in tank

where gasoline vapours might reach an open flame, spark or pilot light (as on a furnace, water heater

or clothes dryer). FIRE or EXPLOSION may result. Allow unit to cool entirely before storage.

• Wipe up any fuel or oil spills immediately. Ensure that no combustible materials are left on or near

the generator. Keep the area surrounding the generator clean and free from debris and keep a

clearance of five (5) feet on all side to allow for proper ventilation of the generator.

• Do not insert objects through generator’s cooling slots.

• Do not operate the generator if connected electrical devices overheat, if electrical output is lost, if

engine or generator sparks or if flames or smoke are observed while unit is running.

• Keep a fire extinguisher near the generator at all times.

PREPARING THE GENERATOR FOR USE

USING THE GENERATOR FOR THE FIRST TIME

If you are using the generator for the first time, there are a few steps you must take to prepare it for

operation.

Step 1- Add oil

The generator requires engine oil to operate properly. The generator, when new from the package,

contains no oil in the crankcase. You must add the proper amount of oil before operating the

generator for the first time. This amount, which is equal to the oil capacity of the engine crankcase,

can be found on the chart in figure 1. When filling the engine with oil in the future, please refer to this

chart.

Engine Oil Capacity 12 fluid oz.

Figure 1- Generator Oil Capacity

CAUTION:

 Do not apply engine oil with additives or

2-stroke gasoline engine oil, which may

shorten the engine’s service life.

 Engine oil recommended: SAE 10W-30. As

viscosity varies with regions and temperatures,

so the lubricant has to be selected in accordance

with our recommendation.

To add oil, follow these steps:

1. Make sure the generator is on a level surface.

2. Unscrew the oil filler/dipstick cap from the engine as shown in figure 2.

3. Using a funnel, add the appropriate amount of oil, as found in figure 1, into the crankcase. You

will know the crankcase is full when the oil level has reached the lower lip of the opening you

have just poured the oil into (see figure 3).

4. Replace oil filler cap.

Figure 2- Unscrewing the oil cap Figure 3 - Adding oil

Step 2- Add Gasoline

WARNING: Gasoline and gas fumes are highly flammable.

 Do not fill tank near an open flame.

 Do not overfill. Always check for fuel spills.

To ensure that the generator runs smoothly use only FRESH, UNLEADED GAS WITH AN OCTANE

RATING OF 87 OR HIGHER. To add gasoline:

1. Make sure the generator is on a level surface.

2. Unscrew gas cap and set aside (NOTE: the gas cap may be tight and hard to unscrew).

3. Slowly add unleaded gasoline to the fuel tank. Be careful not to overfill. Please refer to the

chart in figure 4 to find the gas capacity of your generator model. The fuel gauge on the top of

the generator indicates how much gasoline is in the generator gas tank. NOTE: Gas can

expand. Do not fill the gas tank to the very top.

4. Replace fuel cap and wipe up any spilled gasoline with a dry cloth.

IMPORTANT:

 Never use an oil/gasoline mixture.

 Never use old gas.

 Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.

 Gas can age in the tank and make it hard to start up the generator in the future.

 Never store generator for extended periods of time with fuel in the tank.

Gas Tank Capacity 7.5L(1.98 us. gallons)

Figure 4 - Gas Tank Capacity

Step 3- Ground the Generator

WARNING: Failure to properly ground the generator can result in electrocution.

Ground the generator by tightening the grounding nut against a grounding wire (see figure 5). A

generally acceptable grounding wire is a No. 12 AWG (American Wire Gauge) stranded copper wire.

This grounding wire should be connected at the other end to a copper or brass-grounding rod that is

driven into the ground/earth. Grounding codes can vary by location. Please contact a local electrician

to check the grounding regulations for your area.
