WARNING:
While operating and storing, keep at least 3 feet of
clearance on all sides of this product, including overhead.

before storage. Heat created by muffler and exhaust
gases could be hot enough to cause serious burns and/
or ignite combustible objects.
OPERATION
USING THE BATTERY CHARGING CABLE
See Figure 12.
WARNING:
The 12 V DC receptacle is designed to charge vented wet
lead acid batteries only. Other types of batteries could
burst, causing personal injury and damage.
NOTICE:
The 12 V DC receptacle provides continuous charge. Do
not overcharge battery or leave battery unattended. Doing
so may cause damage to the battery.
NOTICE:
Do not use the generator to jump start vehicles. Doing
so could result in damage to the vehicle or it's electrical
components.
Place the auto idle switch in the off position.
Using the battery clamps, connect the battery charging
cable assembly to the battery terminal. Connect the
red wire to the positive (+) terminal first, then connect
the black wire to the negative (–) terminal. Make sure all
connections are secure.
NOTE: Be careful not to short across the terminals when
installing. Shorting the terminals together can cause
sparks, damage to the battery or generator, or even burns
or explosions.
NOTE: To prevent short circuit, keep away from a metal
surface during clamp connection.
Connect the battery charging cable assembly to the
12 V DC receptacle.
Start the generator.
NOTE: The AC receptacles can be used while the DC
receptacle is in use.
The battery will become slightly warm to the touch while
charging. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.
NOTE: Only use battery charging cable assembly to
charge vented wet lead acid batteries.
When batteries become fully charged, disconnect
the battery charging cable assembly from the battery.
Disconnect the negative (black) wire first, then the positive
(red) wire, being careful not to short across the terminals.
Always abide by the safety warnings provided with the
battery.
