GENERATOR ANCHOR

The generator should be used on a flat, level surface
whenever possible. If the particular job site requires the
generator to be used on uneven terrain, the generator
should be anchored. Insert a stake or piece of rebar
through the anchor bracket on the frame (see Figure
14). Drive the stake into the ground to secure the
generator and prevent it from moving.
WARNING
Anchoring the generator to the
ground does not electrically ground
the generator. For proper electrical
grounding of the generator, see
Grounding the Generator on page 18.

OPERATION
ADDING / CHECKING ENGINE
FLUIDS AND FUEL
Before adding/checking engine
fluids and fuel, review Safety on
page 7.
DANGER
Filling the fuel tank with gasoline while
the generator is running can cause
gasoline to leak and come in contact
with hot surfaces that can ignite the
gasoline.
Before starting the generator, always check the level of:
Engine oil
Gasoline in the fuel tank
Once the generator is started and the engine gets
warm, it is not safe to add gasoline to the fuel tank or
engine oil to the engine while the engine is running or
the engine and muffler are hot.

Checking and / or Adding Engine Oil

WARNING
Internal pressure can build in the
engine crankcase while the engine
is running. Removing the oil dipstick
while the engine is hot can cause
extremely hot oil to spray out of the
crankcase and can severely burn skin.
Allow engine oil to cool for several
minutes before removing the oil
dipstick.
The unit as shipped does not contain oil in the
engine. You must add engine oil before starting the
generator for the first time. See Checking Engine Oil
on page 26 and Adding Engine Oil on page 27
for instructions on checking engine oil level and the
procedure for adding engine oil.
NOTICE
The generator does not contain engine oil as shipped.
Attempting to start the engine without adding
engine oil can permanently damage internal engine
components.
