DANGER:
Failure to properly ground generator can result in elec-
trocution, especially if the generator is equipped with a
wheel kit. National Electric Code requires generator to be
properly grounded to an approved earth ground. Call an
electrician for local grounding requirements.
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with this product to make you
careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second
is sufficient to inflict serious injury.
WARNING:
Do not use any attachments or accessories not
recommended by the manufacturer of this product. The
use of attachments or accessories not recommended
can result in serious personal injury.
APPLICATIONS
This generator is designed to supply electrical power for
operating compatible electrical lighting, appliances, tools,
and motor loads.
BEFORE OPERATING THE UNIT
 Only use OUTSIDE and far away from windows, doors,
and vents.
 NEVER use inside a home or garage, EVEN IF doors and
windows are open.
 Always position the generator on a flat firm surface.
CAUTION:
Attempting to start the engine before it has been properly
filled with lubricant will result in equipment failure.
CHECKING/ADDING LUBRICANT
See Figure 8.
Engine lubricant has a major influence on engine perfor-
mance and service life. For general, all-temperature use,
SAE 10W-30 is recommended. Always use a 4-stroke motor
lubricant that meets or exceeds the requirements for API
service classification SJ.
NOTE: Non-detergent or 2-stroke engine lubricants will
damage the engine and should not be used.
 Unscrew the oil cap/dipstick and remove.
 Wipe dipstick clean and re-seat in hole; do not re-
thread.
OPERATION
 Remove dipstick again and check lubricant level. Lubri-
cant level should fall between the hatched areas on the
dipstick.
 If level is low, add engine lubricant until the fluid level rises
to the upper portion of the dipstick.
 Replace and secure the oil cap/dipstick.
CHECKING/ADDING FUEL
See Figure 9.
 Remove the fuel cap.
 Fill the fuel tank to 1 in. below the top of the fuel neck.
 Replace and secure the fuel cap.
NOTE: Always use unleaded gasoline with a pump octane
rating of 86 or higher. Never use old, stale, or contaminated
gasoline, and do not use an oil/gas mixture. Do not allow
dirt or water into the fuel tank.
USING FUEL STABILIZER
Fuel gets old, oxidizes, and breaks down over time. Adding
a fuel stabilizer (not included) extends the usable life of fuel
and helps prevent deposits from forming that can clog the
fuel system. Follow fuel stabilizer manufacturer's directions
for correct ratio of stabilizer to fuel.
 Add stabilizer to fuel tank, then fill with gasoline following
previous instructions.
NOTE: Fuel stabilizer and gasoline can be mixed prior
to filling the tank by using a gas can or other approved
fuel container and shaking gently to combine.
 Replace and secure the fuel tank cap.
 Start and run the engine for at least 5 minutes to allow
stabilizer to treat the entire fuel system.
OXYGENATED FUELS
DO NOT USE E85 FUEL. IT WILL VOID YOUR
WARRANTY.
NOTE: Fuel system damage or performance problems re-
sulting from the use of an oxygenated fuel containing more
than the percentages of oxygenates stated previously are
not covered under warranty.
Ethanol. Gasoline containing up to 10% ethanol by vol-
ume (commonly referred to as E10) or 15% ethanol by
volume (commonly referred to as E15) are acceptable.
Do not use E85 fuel.
CAUTION:
On a level surface with the engine off, check the lubricant
level before each use of the generator.
