Operating Instructions
Operation
PRE-OPERATION
1. Check engine oil level everytime you
start your generator. Refer to the
Engine Manual for SAE, API and fill
quantity specifications.
2. Use of a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) is strongly
recommended. Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupters can significantly reduce
the possibility of injury if an electrical
short occurs.
A Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter
may not be effective if used on a
generator that is not grounded!
3. When installing a GFCI, be sure to
follow all national and local
regulations, or call a licensed or
certified electrical technician.
STARTING
1. Check oil level and fuel.
2. Remove all electrical loads from the
generator.
3. Set the switch to the ON position.
4. Move the choke/run switch to the
choke position.
5. Pull the starter rope with a brisk
smooth motion.
6. Move the choke/run switch to the
run position.
7. After each start up, allow engine to
run 2-3 minutes with no load.
Engine speed is
preset to provide
proper output voltage. Never attempt to
modify or adjust engine speed or output
voltage.
GENERATOR SHUT OFF
1. Remove all electrical load devices
from the generator.
2. Allow the engine to run for 2-3
minutes with no electrical loads.
3. Set the switch to the OFF position.
This will stall the engine.
4. Verify that the generator has
completely stopped.
5. Allow the unit to cool before
installing any covers.
GN2560V, GN2563V, GN3560V and GN3565V
NEVER OPERATE YOUR
GENERATOR UNDER THESE
CONDITIONS:
1. Rain or inclement weather
2. Excessive vibration
3. Sparking
4. Engine misfire
5. Electric output loss
6. Change or fluctuating engine
speed
7. Overheating in connected
equipment
8. Damaged receptacles
9. Damaged, broken or missing
parts
10. Guarding components removed
LOAD DEVICES
1. The 120 volt receptacles are rated
for 15 amps. The 120V twist lock
receptacle is rated for 30 amps.
2. The 12V DC outlet is rated for 8
amps.
3. Total combined load through any
combination of receptacle must not
exceed the rated load limits of the
generator.
NOTE: Power draw can be calculated
by multiplying volts and amps. The
resulting number is wattage.
Never exceed the posted maximum
wattage for the generator or any
individual receptacle. Refer to owner's
manuals and product tags to determine
the wattage of electrical load devices.
Long power cords and extension cords
draw additional power. Keep cords at
minimum possible length.
Maintenance
INFREQUENT USAGE
If the generator is used infrequently,
starting difficulty may occur. To help
prevent difficulty starting, the generator
should be run for approximately 30
minutes per week.
2
ALWAYS OPERATE YOUR
GENERATOR UNDER THESE
CONDITIONS:
1. Read and understand these
instructions
2. Clear of all persons
3. Properly grounded (generator)
4. Properly grounded (tools,
appliances, etc.)
5. Flat level surfaces
6. Well ventilated areas
STORAGE
If the generator is not to be used for
extended periods of time, the following
pre-storage procedures should be
performed:
1. Make sure engine oil is filled to the
proper level.
2. Drain all fuel from the tank, lines,
and carburetor.
3. Remove the spark plug, and pour
approximately one teaspoon of oil
into the spark plug hole.
4. Pull the starter cord several times to
spread the oil throughout the
cylinder.
5. Slowly pull the starter cord, until
resistance is felt. This indicates that
the piston is moving upward on the
compression cycle, and the intake
and exhaust valves are closed. (The
piston pushes a small amount of air
from the spark plug hole on
compression.)
Refer to the engine manual that
accompanies this unit for instructions
regarding maintenance of engine
components.
