TROUBLESHOOTING

IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT START:
1. Check to ensure switches are in the "ON" position. (Both unit and engine)
2. Check engine oil level. Your unit possesses a Low Oil Alarm System that will not allow your
engine to start if the oil is below safe operating levels. This feature is installed to increase the
life of your engine and prevent engine damage. If oil level is low, fill to the full mark on dipstick.
Refer to the Product Specifications for exact oil type and amounts.
3. Check the fuel level to insure adequate fuel. Add fuel if necessary.
4. Remove and inspect the spark plug for cleanliness and proper electrode gap. If needed, clean
or replace the spark plug. Refer to Spark Plug Maintenance in the Maintenance section of the
Owner's Manual for proper procedure.
5. If your unit will still NOT start after performing the above checks, call our customer hotline at
LIFAN Power USA Toll Free 1-866-471-7464 OPTION 2.
NOTE: Periodically on the initial start-up or after the unit has been stored for a long period of
time, the float for the "Low Oil Alarm System" will stick to the bottom of your oil pan. Locate the
two (2) wires to the Low Oil Sensor Diode (refer to figure on the right) located on the side of the
engine block. Unplug these wires and, only after ensuring the engine is full of oil, start the engine
and allow to run until warm (normally 20 minutes, as this will heat the oil and release the float on
the Low Oil Alert System). Then re-plug the wires to the terminals on the Low Oil Alarm Sending
Unit.
UNIT DOES NOT PROVIDE ELECTRICAL CURRENT:
1. Plug in a small appliance or tool to test.
2. Check if the AC (or DC) Circuit Breaker is in the "ON" position. If not, place in "ON" position. If
equipped with a GFCI receptacle, re-set GFCI Breaker by pushing in the reset button in the
middle of the GFCI's faceplate (this must be done with the engine running).
3. If your unit still does NOT produce electricity after performing the previous checks, call LIFAN
Power USA at 1-866-471-7464, OPTION 2.
