BEFORE STARTING THE
ENGINE
Add Oil
CAUTION! Any attempt to crank or start the engine
before it hasbeen properly filled with the recommended
oil may result in an engine failure.
To fill your engine with oil:
• Placegenerator on a level surface.
• Follow the oil grade recommendations and oil fill
instructionsgiven in the engine owner's manual.
NOTE:The generator's revolving field rides on a
prelubricated and sealedbali bearing that requires no
additional lubrication for the life of the bearing.
Add Gasoline
_ ARNING! Never fill fuel tank indoors.Never
fill fuel tank when engine isrunning or hot.Allow
unit to cool for two minutes before refueling. Do
Not lighta cigarette or smoke when filling the fuel
tank.
_ WARNING! Do Not overfill the fuel tank.
Always allow room for fuel expansion.
• Use regular UNLEADED gasoline with the generator
engine. Do Not use premium gasoline. Do Not mix oil
with gasoline.
• Clean area around fuel fill cap, remove cap.
• Slowly add unleaded regular gasoline to fuel tank. Be
careful not to overfill.Allow about 1.5" of tank space for
fuel expansion (Figure 2).
Fuel
......
• Install fuel cap and wipe up any spilled gasoline.
IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits
from forming in essential fuel system parts, such as the
carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose or tank during storage.Also,
experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called
gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture, which
leads to separation and formation of acids during storage.
Acidic fuel can damage the fuel system of an engine while in
storage.
To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be
emptied before storage of 30 clays or longer. See"Storage"
on page I I. Never use engine or carburetor cleaner
products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.

GROUNDING THE
G EN ERATO R
The National Electrical Code requires that the frame and
external electrically conductive parts of this generator be
properly connected to an approved earth ground. Local
electrical codes mayalso require proper grounding of the
unit. For that purpose, a GROUNDING WING NUT is
provided on the generator end (Figure 3).
Wing Nut
I*
Turn the fuel valve to the "On" position (Figure 4).
Place the choke lever in the "Choke" position
(Figure 5).
Generally,connecting a No. 12AWG (American Wire
Gauge) stranded copper wire to the grounding wingnut
and to an earth-driven copper or brass grounding rod
(electrode) provides adequate protection against electrical
shock. Be careful to keepthe grounding wire attached after
connecting the stranded copper wire. However, local codes
may vary widely.Consult with a local electrician for
grounding requirements in your area.
Properly grounding the generator helps prevent electrical
shock if aground fault condition exists in the generator or
in connected electrical devices.Proper grounding also helps
dissipate static electricity, which often builds up in
ungrounded devices.
OPERATING THE
G EN ERATO R
_ AUTION! Never start or stop the engine with
electrical loadsconnected to the receptaclesAND
with the connected devices turned ON.
Starting the Engine
Disconnect alt electrical loadsfrom the generator. Use the
following start instruction steps by numerical order:
3. Setthe rocker switch to "On" position (Figure 6).
4. Grasp the recoil handle and pull slowly untilslight
resistance is felt.Then pull rapidly to start engine.
5. Move choke lever to "Run" position a short distanceat
a time over severalsecondsin warm weather or
minutes in cold weather.Let engine run smoothly before
eachchange.Operate with choke in "Run" position.
NOTE: If engine still fails to start after 3 pulls,check for
proper oil level in crankcase.This unit is equipped with a
low oil device which prevents the engine from being
started. Seeengine manual.
Refer to the engine owner's manual for more
detailed starting instructions.

You must make sure your generator cansupply enough
rated (running) and surge (starting) watts for the itemsyou
will power at the sametime. Follow these simple steps:
I. Select the itemsyou wilt power at the same time.
2. Total the rated (running) watts of these items.Thisis
the amount of power your generator must produce to
keep your itemsrunning. SeeFigure 9.
3. Estimate how many surge (starting) watts you wilt
need.Surge wattage isthe short burst of power
needed to start electric motor-driven tools or
appliancessuch asa circular saw or refrigerator.
Becausenot all motors start at the sametime, total
surge watts can be estimated by addingonly the

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
RECOMMENDATIONS
The Owner/Operator is responsible for making sure that
all periodic maintenance tasks are completed on atimely
basis;that all discrepancies are corrected; and that the unit
is kept clean and properly stored. Never operate a
damaged or defective generator.
Engine Maintenance
See engine owner's manual for instructions.
If you need service for your engine, you need to determine
the engine identification number.To do so, remove the
rocker arm cover hood, item number 55 shown on
page 16, by removing the four nuts and washers holding it
in place.The engine model-type-trim number is stamped on
the side of the inner cover attached to the engine. Have
this number in hand when you call the engine service
center for assistance.
_i AUTION! Avoid prolonged or repeated skincontact with usedmotor oil. Used motor oil has
been shown to cause skin cancer in certain
laboratory animals.Thoroughly wash exposed areas
with soap and water.
KEEPOUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. DON'T
POLLUTE.CONSERVERESOURCES.RETURN
USED OIL TO COLLECTION CENTERS.
Generator Maintenance
Generator maintenance consists of keeping the unit clean
and dry. Operate and store the unit in a clean dry
environment where it will not be exposed to excessive
dust, dirt, moisture or any corrosive vapors. Cooling air
slots in the generator must not become clogged with snow,
leaves or any other foreign material.
NOTE: Do Not use a garden hose to clean generator.
Water can enter engine fuel system and cause problems. In
addition, if water enters generator through cooling air slots,
some of the water wilt be retained in voids and cracks of
the rotor and stator winding insulation.Water and dirt
buildup on the generator internal windings will eventually
decrease the insulation resistance of these windings.
To Clean the Generator
_i AUTION! Never insertanyobject or tool
through the air cooling slots, even ifthe engine is
not running.
• Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
• A soft bristle brush may be used to loosen caked on dirt
or oil.
• A vacuum cleaner may be used to pick up loose dirt and
debris.
• Low pressure air (not to exceed 25 psi) may be used to
blow awaydirt. Inspect cooling air slots and opening on
generator.These openings must be kept clean and
unobstructed.
/
