NOTICE
Never operate the engine in a closed area or
it may cause unconsciousness and death
within a short time. Operate the engine in
a well ventilated area. The generator has been
shipped without engine oil. Do not start the
engine till fill with the sufficient engine oil.
Tip:
• The generator can be used with the rated output load
at standard atmospheric conditions.
• "Standard atmospheric conditions Ambient
temperature 25c.
• Barometric pressure lOOkPa; Relative humidity 30%
• The output of the generator varies due to change
temperature, altitude (lower air pressure at higher
altitude) and humidity.
• The output of the generator is reduced when the
temperature, the humidity and the altitude are higher
than standard atmospheric conditions.
• Additionally, the load must be reduced when using in
confined areas, as generator cooling is affected.

Tip: When starting the engine, with the ESC "ON" and there
is no load on the generator: In ambient temperature
below 0°C (32°F), the engine will run at the rated
(4400 r/min) for 5 minutes to warm up the engine.
In ambient temperature below 5°C (41°F), the engine
will run at the rated r/min (4400r/min) for 3 minutes to
warm up the engine.
The ESC unit operates normally after the above time
period, while the ESC is "ON".

c. Choke is switched off.
Tip: The choke is not required
to start a warm engine.
Push the choke knob in
to the position "ON".
Pull slowly on the recoil
starter until it is engaged,
then pull it briskly.
Tip: Grasp the carrying
handle firmly to prevent
the generator from
falling over when pulling
the recoil starter.
After the engine starts,
warm up the engine until
the engine does not stop
when the choke knob is
returned to the "ON"
