Operation

FUELING THE GENERATOR

Use care when fueling the generator. Only fill the fuel tank when
the generator has cooled entirely. 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.
Do not light a cigarette or smoke when
filling the fuel tank.

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 fill fuel tank indoors. Never fill fuel
thank when engine is running or hot. Avoid
spilling gasoline on a hot engine. Allow
engine to cool entirely before filling fuel tank.

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!

TO FILL THE FUEL TANK

1. Remove the fuel tank cap.
2. Add fuel slowly, stopping about two (2) inches below the top
of the filler neck.

"STARTING THE GENERATOR" for additional directions on
priming the fuel system.

ADDING ENGINE OIL

All oil should meet minimum American Petroleum Institute (API)
Service Class SJ, SL or better. Do not use any aftermarket
additives.
Select the oil's viscosity grade according to the expected operating
temperature, only a little more than one-half quart is needed.
Above 40° F, use SAE 30
Below 40° F to 10° F, use 10W-30
Below 10° F, use synthetic 5W-30
10 W-3 0
10W-30
Synthetic 5W-30
Synth etic 5 W-3 0

TO ADD ENGINE OIL TO THE CRANKCASE

1. Place the unit on a firm, level surface.
2. Remove the Left Side Service Cover.
3. Remove the oil fill cap located on the bottom of the engine
crankcase.
4. Add the recommended engine oil slowly, stopping frequently
to check the level. The full level is the base of the threads in
the filler neck. DO NOT OVERFILL!
5. Replace the oil fill cap and tighten.
6. Always check the oil level before starting the generator
engine.
DO NOT overfill the engine crankcase with
oil. High oil pressure may result, causing
premature engine wear and damage.
