2.4 USING THE FLEXPOWER™ SWITCH
When the accessories connected to the generator are going to
be used intermittently (such as a hand drill), the FlexPower™
switch can be pushed to the "ON" (I) position. This will lower the
generator engine speed when loads are not being applied, saving
fuel, reducing engine wear and extending runtime.

2.5 SHUTTING DOWN

Once the generator is no longer needed it can be shut down.
1. Switch off any accessories connected to the generator. Unplug
any cords to the 120 VAC duplex outlets.
2. Turn the fuel valve to the "OFF" (O) position (Figure 7). A
switch behind the fuel valve grounds the ignition system,
stopping the engine and the fuel supply is shut off.
3. Close the vent on the fuel cap.
4. Allow the generator to cool before moving or storing.
Section 2 – Operation
Portable Generator System
Always allow the generator to cool off before
storing. High temperatures will be present at
the rear of the unit for some time after
shutdown.

2.6 LOW OIL LEVEL SHUTDOWN

This generator is equipped with a low oil level shut down. If the
oil level in the engine crankcase drops below a pre-determined
level, the engine will stop automatically and the "LOW OIL" LED
will light up.
Remove the Left Side Service Cover and check the oil level of the
engine. Add oil as necessary; refer to see the section "ADDING
ENGINE OIL".

2.7 FUELING THE GENERATOR

Use care when fueling the generator. Only fill the fuel tank when
the generator is cool and use fresh unleaded gasoline with a
minimum Research Octane Number (RON) of 87.
Do not use any gasoline containing more than 10% Ethanol.
NEVER fill the fuel tank with E85 or a mixture of oil and
gasoline designated for two-cycle engines.
Gasoline is highly FLAMMABLE and its vapors
are EXPLOSIVE. Do not permit smoking, open
flames, sparks or heat in the vicinity while
handling gasoline.
Never add fuel while unit is running or hot.
Allow unit to cool entirely before adding fuel.
Do not overfill the fuel tank. Always allow
room for fuel expansion. If tank is over-filled,
fuel can overflow onto a hot engine and cause
FIRE or an EXPLOSION. Wipe up fuel spills
immediately!
