CAUTION: Risk of property damage. DO
NOT use E85 fuel.
mTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether)
15% by volume. You may use gasoline
containing up to 15% MTBE by
volume.
methanol (methyl or wood alcohol)
5% by volume. You may use gasoline
containing up to 5% methanol by volume
as long as it also contains solvents and
corrosion inhibitors to protect the fuel
system. Gasoline containing more than
5% methanol by volume may cause
starting and/or performance problems.
It may also damage metal, rubber and
plastic parts of the engine or your fuel
system.
If you notice any undesirable operating
symptoms, try another service station
or switch to another brand of gasoline.
NOTE:
Fuel

from the use of an oxygenated fuel
containing more than the percentages
of oxygenates mentioned above are not
covered under warranty.
LOCATION
DANGER: Risk to breathing. Exhaust
from the gasoline engine contains deadly
carbon monoxide, which is odorless
and toxic. Operate engine only outside
in clean, dry, well-ventilated areas.
Noise Considerations
Consult local officials for information
regarding acceptable noise levels in
your area.
FEATURES (FIG. 1–3)
Engine On/Off Switch
The engine On/Off switch (Z) must be in
the ON position to start the generator.
To stop the generator, place switch in
the OFF position. See Starting and
Stopping under Operation for complete
starting and stopping instructions.
main Breaker
The main breaker (AA) protects the
alternator. Overloading the generator
will trip the main breaker. A short circuit
in an electrical device being powered
can also trip the main breaker. If the
main breaker trips:
damage
problems
resulting
1.
Disconnect the electrical loads
from all receptacles.
2.
Place the main breaker (AA) in the
OFF position and then back into
the ON position to reset.
ImpORTANT: If the main breaker
turns to the OFF position when no
electrical loads are connected, contact
a Customer Care Center.
Voltage Selector Switch
pCI2800-B3, pCI5000-B3
This switch (Y) allows the generator to
operate in either single voltage (120V)
or dual voltage (120/240V) mode. When
placed in the 120V position it allows
you to receive the full capacity of the
generator by using all the receptacles.
When placed in the 120/240 position,
you will only be able to receive half the
available watts when using the 120 volt
or
receptacles and the full available watts
when using the 240V 4-prong twist-lock
receptacle.
NOTE: Do not move the voltage selec-
tor switch (Y) while powering electrical
devices. Disconnect all electrical loads
before moving the switch. Failure to
disconnect electrical loads could dam-
age the switch.
Receptacles (Fig. 3)
The receptacles are protected by the
main breaker.
NOTE: The receptacles (BB, CC) are
not protected by a GFCI. Use a GFCI
protected spider box or GFCI adapter
to connect loads to the receptacle.
LOW OIL pROTECTION
Low oil shutdown is a device designed
to protect the engine from damage in
the event the oil level in the crankcase
is low.
If while the engine is running, the oil
gets low, it will automatically shut itself
down and will not restart until the oil is
added. If the oil is low before start-up,
the generator will not start until oil is
added.
NOTE: The low oil shutdown mechanism
is very sensitive. You must fill the engine
to the full mark on the dipstick.
