OPERATION

STARTING THE ENGINE: PROPANE

Fire and explosion hazard. Always turn the propane
tank valve to the fully closed position if not running the
generator on propane.
1. Make sure the LPG/propane hose is correctly connected
to the generator and propane tank.
2. Turn the fuel selector switch to propane operation.
3. Fully open the valve on the propane tank.
Note: If cold starting, move the choke lever to the ON
position.
4. Push the Run/Stop switch to the Run position.
5. Firmly grasp and pull the recoil handle slowly until you
feel increased resistance, then pull rapidly.
6. After starting, allow the engine to run for several seconds
then move the Choke lever to the fully OFF position.

SWITCHING FUEL SOURCES

Fire and explosion hazard. DO NOT add gasoline to
the fuel tank or connect the LPG/propane hose to the
generator while the generator is in operation.
The fuel source can be switched while the engine is
running if a propane tank is connected to the generator
BEFORE operation.
GASOLINE TO PROPANE
IMPORTANT: Load capacity is reduced when running
on propane. Make sure the generator can
supply enough (running) and surge (starting)
watts for the items you are powering before
switching to propane.
1. Fully open the valve on the propane tank.
2. Turn the fuel selector switch to propane operation.
3. Turn the fuel tank valve to the OFF position.

PROPANE TO GASOLINE
1. Turn the fuel tank valve to the ON position.
2. Turn the fuel selector switch to gasoline operation.
3. Turn the propane tank valve to the fully closed position.
Note: When switching to propane operation the engine
may run rough for a few seconds while it purges
gasoline in the carburetor.
If the engine stops when switching fuel sources, disconnect
all loads then restart the unit on the fuel source of choice.

STOPPING THE ENGINE

1. Turn off and unplug all connected electrical loads.
IMPORTANT: Never start or stop the generator with
electrical devices connected.
2. Let the generator run with no load for several minutes to
stabilize internal temperatures of the engine.
3. Push the Run/Stop switch to the Stop position.
Note: Alternately, if the generator is used infrequently, turn
the fuel tank valve to the OFF position to limit the
residual fuel remaining in the carburetor float bowl.
The engine will stop when fuel in the carburetor and
fuel line is exhausted.
4. If operating on propane, turn the propane tank valve to
the fully closed position.

FREQUENCY OF USE

If the generator will be used on an infrequent or intermittent
basis (more than one month before next use), refer to the
Storage section of this manual for information regarding
fuel deterioration.

AC CIRCUIT BREAKERS

The circuit breakers will automatically switch OFF if
there is a short circuit or a significant overload of the
generator at each receptacle. The main circuit breaker
will automatically switch OFF if the combined load of the
receptacles exceeds 30 Amps.
If an AC circuit breaker switches OFF automatically,
check that the appliance is working correctly and it does
not exceed the rated load capacity of the circuit before
resetting the AC circuit breaker ON.
