To Start The Engine
Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator.
NEVER start or stop engine with electrical devices
plugged in and turned ON. Follow start instruction
steps in numerical order:
1. Make sure unit is on a level surface.
iMPORTANT: Failure to start and operate unit on a
level surface will cause the unit not to start or shut
down during operation.
2. Turn fuel valve to "On" position. Fuel valve handle
should be vertical (pointing toward ground) for fuel
to flow.
Fuel Valve is shown
in the On position
3. Place choke lever in "Choke" position.
4. Set rocker switch to "On" position.
Rocker Switch is
shown in On position
5. Grasp recoil handle and pull slowly until slight
resistance is felt. Then pull rapidly to start engine.
WARNING
1
When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is
felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.
NEVER start or stop engine with electrical devices
plugged in and turned on.
iMPORTANT: If engine floods, place choke lever in
"Run" position and crank until engine starts.
6. Move choke lever to "Run" position a short
distance at a time over several seconds in warm
weather or minutes in cold weather. Let engine
run smoothly before each change. Operate with
choke in "Run" position.
NOTE: If engine starts after 3 pulls but fails to run, or
if unit shuts down during operation, make sure unit is
on a level surface and check for proper oil level in
crankcase. This unit may be equipped with a low oil
protection device. If so, oil must be at proper level for
engine to start.

WARNING
DO NOT touch hot surfaces and avoid hot exhaust gases.
Allow equipment to cool before touching.
Keep at least 5 ft. (152 cm) clearance on all sides of
generator including overhead.
Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) Title 36 Parks,
Forests, and Public Property require equipment powered
by an internal combustion engine to have a spark

Connecting Electrical Loads
• Let the engine stabilize and warm up for a few
minutes after starting.
• DO NOT connect 240 Volt loads to 120 Volt receptacles.
• DO NOT connect 3-phase loads to the generator.
• DO NOT connect 50 Hz loads to the generator.
• Plug in and turn on the desired 120 Volt AC, single
phase, 60 Hertz electrical loads.
• DO NOT OVERLOAD THE GENERATOR. See
"Don't Overload Generator".
CAUTION
See "Don't Overload Generator".
Start generator and let engine stabilize before connecting
electrical loads.
Connect electrical loads in OFF position, then turn ON
for operation.
Turn electrical loads OFF and disconnect from generator
before stopping generator.
Stopping the Engine
1. Turn off and unplug all electrical loads from unit.
NEVER start or stop engine with electrical devices
plugged in and turned on.
2. Let engine run at no-load for two minutes to
stabilize unit's internal temperatures.
3. Move rocker switch to "Off" position.
4. Move fuel valve to "Off" position.
WARNING
DO NOT stop engine by moving choke lever to "Choke"
position.
