ADDING FUEL
See Figure 9.
DANGER:
Risk of fire and serious burns: Never remove fuel cap
when unit is running. Shut off engine and allow the unit
to cool at least five minutes. Remove cap slowly.
WARNING:
Gasoline and its vapors are highly flammable and ex-
plosive. To prevent serious personal injury and property
damage, handle gasoline with care. Keep away from igni-
tion sources, handle outdoors only, do not smoke while
adding fuel, and wipe up spills immediately.
When adding gas to the generator, make sure the unit is sitting
on a flat, level surface. If the engine is hot, let the generator
cool for five minutes before adding gas. ALWAYS fill the fuel
tank outdoors with the machine turned off.
 Turn the engine switch/fuel valve/choke lever to the OFF
position.
 Remove the fuel cap slowly.
 Fill the fuel tank to 1 in. below the top of the fuel neck.
 Replace and secure the fuel cap.
WARNING:
Always shut off engine before fueling. Never remove
fuel cap or add fuel to a machine with a running or hot
engine. Make sure the unit is sitting on a flat, level sur-
face and only add fuel outdoors. If the engine is hot, let
the unit cool for at least five minutes before adding fuel.
After fueling, immediately replace fuel cap and tighten
securely. Move at least 30 ft. from refueling site before
starting engine. Do not smoke and stay away from open
flames and sparks! Failure to follow these instructions
could result in a fire and cause serious personal injury.
NOTE: Always use unleaded gasoline with a pump octane
rating of 86 or higher. Never use old, stale, or contaminated
gasoline, and do not use an oil/gas mixture. Do not allow dirt
or water into the fuel tank. Do not use E85 fuel.
DIGITAL DISPLAY

Press and release the mode button to cycle through the
following displays:
Voltage (V) displays the operating voltage of the generator.
Frequency (F) displays the frequency in hertz at which the
generator is running.
OPERATION
The Run/Maintenance Timer displays the amount of time
the generator has run since being started. This timer resets
each time the generator is shut off.
When a cumulative run time of 25 hours has been reached,
P25 will display on the meter as a reminder to change the
engine lubricant after the initial 25 hours of run time.
When a cumulative time of 50 hours is reached, P50 will
display on the meter to remind you to clean the air filter.
When a cumulative time of 100 hours is reached, P100 will
display on the meter to remind you to change/clean the fuel
filter, clean the air filter, and change the engine lubricant.
STARTING THE ENGINE
See Figures 11 - 12.
NOTICE:
On a level surface with the engine off, check the lubricant
level before each use of the generator.
NOTE: If location of generator is not level, the unit may not
start or may shut down during operation.
 Unplug all loads from the generator.
 Verify the run switch is in the ON position.
 Move the engine switch/fuel valve/choke lever to the
START position.
NOTE: If engine is warm or the temperature is above
50˚F, move the engine switch/fuel valve/choke lever to
the RUN position.
 Pull the recoil starting grip until the engine runs.
NOTE: Do not allow the grip to snap back after starting
return it gently to its original place.
 Allow the engine to run for 15–30 seconds, then move the
engine switch/fuel valve/choke lever to the RUN position.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
See Figure 11.
To stop the engine under normal operating conditions:
 Remove any load from the generator.
 Move the engine switch/fuel valve/choke lever to the OFF
position.
To stop the unit quickly in an emergency:
 Place the run switch in the OFF position.
WARNING:
While operating and storing, keep at least 3 feet of clear-
ance on all sides of this product, including overhead.
Allow a minimum of 30 minutes of "cool down" time
before storage. Heat created by muffler and exhaust
gases could be hot enough to cause serious burns and/
or ignite combustible objects.
