Safety information

General safety information

• This generator is not designed for on-board use.

Do not use it while installed on the vehicle.

• Do not modify the generator or use it with its parts

removed.

• Do not allow children to operate the generator.

• Be sure to carry the generator only by its carrying

handle.

• Do not place any obstacles on the generator.

Safety information

Exhaust fumes are poisonous

• Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MIN-

UTES. Generator exhaust contains carbon monox-

ide. This is a poison you cannot see or smell.

• NEVER use inside a home or garage, EVEN IF

doors and windows are open.

• Only use OUTSIDE and far away from windows,

doors, and vents.

Fuel is highly flammable and poison-

ous

• Always turn off the engine when refuelling.

• Never refuel while smoking or in the vicinity of an

open flame.

• Take care not to spill any fuel on the engine or muf-

fler when refueling.

• Do not leave the generator inside the vehicle or in the

trunk.

• If you swallow any fuel, inhale fuel vapor, or allow any

to get in your eye(s), see your doctor immediately. If

any fuel spills on your skin or clothing, immediately

wash with soap and water and change your clothes.

• When operating or transporting the generator, be

sure it is kept upright. If it tilts, fuel may leak from the

carburetor or fuel tank.

Safety information

Engine and muffler may be hot

• Place the generator in a place where pedestrians or

children are not likely to touch the machine.

• Avoid placing any flammable materials near the

exhaust outlet during operation.

• In order to prevent overheating, ensure adequate air-

flow by keeping the machine at least 1 m (3 ft) from

objects or other equipment.

• Do not operate the engine with a dust cover or other

objects covering it.

• When covering the generator, be sure to do so only

after the engine and muffler have completely cooled

down.

Electric shock prevention

• Never operate the engine in rain or snow.

1-4

Safety information

• Never touch the generator with wet hands or electri-

cal shock will occur.

• Connect the ground (earth) terminal to a ground

source. In order to prevent electrical shock, the gen

-

erator must be grounded when using an electrical

device with a ground plug.

Connection notes

• Avoid connecting the generator to commercial power

outlet.

• Avoid connecting the generator in parallel with any

other generator.

1. Correct

2. Incorrect

Before the generator can be connected to a build-

ing’s electrical system, a licensed electrician must

install an isolation (transfer) switch in the build-

ing’s main fuse box. The switch is the connection

point for generator power and allows selection of

generator or main line power to the building. This

will prevent the generator from charging the main

power line (backfeeding) when the main power

supply has failed or has been turned off for line

repair. Backfeeding can electrocute or injure line

maintenance personnel. Also, generator and build-

ing electrical system damage can occur when nor-

mal operating power returns if unit is used without

an isolation switch.

Extension cord notes

Extension cords should be protected by a tough flexible

rubber sheath (IEC 245) or the equivalent to withstand

mechanical stresses.

Controls and features

Control function

Engine switch

The engine switch controls the ignition system and the

fuel cock.

TIP

The engine switch of this generator opens and closes

the fuel cock simultaneously. You don’t need to operate

the fuel cock separately.

“ ” (RUN)

Ignition circuit is switched on, and the fuel cock opens.

The engine can be started.

“ ” (STOP)

Ignition circuit is switched off, and the fuel cock closes.

The engine will not run.

Oil level warning light (Red)

When the oil level falls below the lower level, the oil

level warning light flashes and then the engine stops

automatically. If the light flashes, stop the engine imme

-

diately, and add engine oil up to the specified level.

Unless you refill with oil, the engine will not start again.

TIP

If the oil level warning light flashes even though the

engine oil level is sufficient, make sure to place the

generator horizontally.

AC switch (N.F.B.)

The AC switch (Non-Fuse Breaker) turns off automati-

cally when the load exceeds the generator rated out-

put.

Controls and features

Fuel tank cap

Remove the fuel tank cap by turning it counterclock-

wise.

Ground (earth) terminal

Ground (earth) terminal connects the earth line for pre-

vention of electric shock.

When the electric device is grounded, be sure to

ground the generator, too.

For the grounding, consult a Yamaha dealer.

Economy control switch

In order to reduce fuel consumption and operating

noise, use the economy control switch.

“ ” (ON)

When the economy control switch is turned to “ ” (ON),

the economy control unit regulates the engine speed

according to the connected load. The results are better

fuel consumption and less noise.

“ ” (OFF)

When the economy control switch is turned to “ ”

(OFF), the engine runs at the rated speed (4900 r/min)

regardless of whether a load is connected or not.

TIP

• The economy control switch must be turned to “ ”

(OFF) when using electric devices that require a

Reduce the load to the specified generator rated

output if the AC switch (N.F.B.) turns off. If it turns

off again, consult a Yamaha dealer.

large starting current, such as a compressor of a

submersible pump.

• Economy control does not function when the genera-

tor is in warming-up period (See page 4-1).

Power supply display

The current power supply level is displayed by the out-

put indicators. According to the power supply level, the

output indicator(s) will come on.

Overload indicator light (Red)

The overload indicator light comes on when electricity

over the rated output is required by the connected elec-

trical devices, or when the inverter control unit over-

heats, or the AC output voltage rises. Then the AC

protector will trip, stopping power generation in order to

protect the generator and any connected electric

devices.

TIP

The overload indicator light may come on for a few sec-

onds at the first when using electric devices that

require a large starting current, such as a compressor

of a submersible pump. However, this is not a malfunc-

tion.

Fuel tank cap air vent lever

The fuel tank cap is provided with an air vent lever to

stop fuel flow.

The air vent lever must be turned to “ON” to run the

engine.

Controls and features

“ON”

This will allow fuel to flow to the carburetor and the

engine to run.

“OFF”

When the engine is not in use, turn the air vent lever to

“OFF” to stop fuel flow.

Fuel level gauge

The fuel level gauge shows the amount of the fuel in

the fuel tank. Make sure that sufficient fuel is in the fuel

tank before the operation.

Hour meter

The accumulated operation time is displayed by output

indicator lights “A” and “B”.

To see the time, push the reset button 3 times within 1

second in no-load running.

After one-second absence, the light “A” flashes every

1000 hours, and the light “B” flashes every 100 hours.

For example, if the light “A” flashes 2 times and the

light “B” flashes 3 times, it shows that the total opera

-

tion time is about 2300 hours.

TIP

Hour meter does not function when the generators are

in parallel operation (Twin Tech).

Boost mode switch

The boost mode switch raises up the number of rota-

tion of the engine temporarily (for approximately 60

seconds). When using devices that require a large

starting current, such as a compressor of a submers

-

ible pump or refrigerator, use this switch.

To enter the boost mode, push the boost mode switch

for 3 seconds. To exit the boost mode, push the boost

mode switch for 3 seconds again.
