Operation

2.1.1 BATTERY CONNECTION

The battery shipped with the generator has been fully charged.
A battery may lose some of its charge when not in use for
prolonged periods of time. If the battery is unable to crank
the engine, plug in the 12V charger included in the accessory
box (see the Charging the Battery section). RUNNING THE
GENERATOR WILL CHARGE THE BATTERY.
The red positive battery wires (one large and one small) were
deliberately left detached for shipping. You will need two 8mm
wrenches to attach the wires.
First route the small red wire through the rubber boot then attach
both wires to the positive terminal on the battery. Do not over-
tighten. Slide the rubber boot over the battery post (Figure 4).

This message will actually begin flashing at 29 hours and disable
itself at 31 hours providing a two hour window to perform the
service.
There will be a subsequent "CHG OIL" message every 100 hours.
The message will flash one hour before and one hour after each
100 hour interval, again providing a two hour window to perform
service.
Every 200 hours the "SVC" icon on the lower left hand corner of
the display will flash. The message will flash one hour before and
one hour after each 200 hour interval providing a two hour window
to perform service.
When the hour meter is in the Flash Alert mode, the maintenance
message will always alternate with elapsed time in hours and
tenths. The hours will flash four times, then alternate with the
maintenance message four times until the meter resets itself.
• 100 hours - CHG OIL — Oil Change Interval (Every 100 hrs)
• 200 hours - SVC — Air Filter Interval (Every 200 hrs)

2.3 HOURMETER - WITH RESET

The Hourmeter tracks hours of operation for scheduled maintenance
(see chart) (Figure 5).
Operation: Push and release the reset button to toggle between
screens. The hours count backwards from the set interval as
shown in the chart.
When the meter reaches 5 hours,the text "CHG OIL" (or "SVC AIR
FILTER" or "CHG PLUG") will flash continually for two minutes.
After this time, the meter will go back to displaying the total hours
of the unit (for 2 minutes). This cyle will repeat for the entire 5
hours.
When the service interval reaches zero hours, the text "NOW"
replaces the hours remaining.
For a new generator for instance, the message will say "CHG OIL"
then flash "in 30". This means that in 30 hours, the oil will need to
be changed. Pressing the button a few more times will bring the
meter back to the screen that shows the total hours run.
Reset: Toggle to the alert that you wish to reset then hold the
button down for 9 seconds. The maintenance hours are reset when
the display shows "0000.0".
The hour glass graphic will flash on and off when the engine
is running. This signifies that the meter is tracking hours of
operation.
