WARNING:

GROUNDING THE GENERATOR

If this generator will be used only with cord and plug-connected equipment,

National Electric Code does not require that the unit be grounded. However,

other methods of using the generator may require grounding to reduce the risk

of shock or electrocution. Consult a qualified electrician, electrical inspector,

or local agency having jurisdiction for local codes or ordinances to find out if

grounding is needed in your situation before using the generator.

When grounding is required, the nut and ground terminal on the frame are

used to connect the generator to a suitable ground source. The ground path

should be made with #8 size wire. Connect the terminal of the ground wire

between the lock washer and the nut, and tighten the nut fully. Connect the

other end of the wire securely to a suitable ground source that is in contact

with the soil for a minimum distance of 8 ft.

The National Electric Code contains several practical ways in which to estab-

lish a good ground source. If a steel or iron rod is used, it should be at least

5/8 in. diameter, and if a nonferrous rod is used, it should be at least 1/2 in.

diameter and be listed as material for grounding. If a rock bottom is encountered before reaching a depth of 8 ft., drive

the ground rod in at an angle of up to 45°. If the rock bottom is again encountered, the rod can be buried in a trench

that is at least 30 in. deep. In all cases, the upper end of the grounding rod should either be flush with (or below) the

ground or must be otherwise protected from physical damage.

All electrical tools and appliances operated from this generator must be properly grounded by use of a third wire or

be “Double Insulated.”

It is recommended to:

1. Use electrical devices with 3-prong grounded plugs.

2. Use an extension cord intended for outdoor use with a 3-pole receptacle and a 3-prong plug at opposite ends to

ensure continuity of the ground protection from the generator to the appliance.

Check and adhere to all applicable federal, state, and local regulations relating to grounding specifications. Consult a

qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood or if in doubt as

to whether the generator is properly grounded.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

DANGER:

Carbon Monoxide. Using a generator indoors CAN KILL

YOU IN MINUTES.

Generator exhaust contains high levels of carbon mon-

oxide (CO), a poisonous gas you cannot see or smell. If

you can smell the generator exhaust, you are breathing

CO. But even if you cannot smell the exhaust, you could

be breathing CO.

Never use a generator inside homes, garages, crawl-

spaces, or other partly enclosed areas. Deadly levels

of carbon monoxide can build up in these areas. Us-

ing a fan or opening windows and doors does NOT

supply enough fresh air.

ONLY use a generator outdoors and far away from

open windows, doors, and vents. These openings

can pull in generator exhaust.

Even when you use a generator correctly, CO may

leak into the home. ALWAYS use a battery-powered or

battery-backup CO alarm in the home.

If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the generator

has been running, move to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See

a doctor. You could have carbon monoxide poisoning.

WARNING:

Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow

all instructions listed below could result in electrocution,

fire, and/or carbon monoxide poisoning, which can cause

death or serious injury.

WARNING:

In some applications, National Electric Code requires

generator to be grounded to an approved earth ground.

Before using the ground terminal, consult a qualified

electrician, electrical inspector, or local agency having

jurisdiction for local codes or ordinances that apply to

the intended use of the generator.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This manual contains important instructions that should be

followed during installation and maintenance of the genera-

tor and batteries.

Do not connect to a building’s electrical system unless

the generator and transfer switch have been properly

installed and the electrical output has been verified by

a qualified electrician. The connection must isolate the

generator power from utility power and must comply with

all applicable laws and electrical codes.

Do not allow children or untrained individuals to use this

unit.

Do not start or operate the engine in a confined space,

building, near open windows, or in other unventilated

space where dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can

collect. Carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless, and

extremely dangerous gas, can cause unconsciousness

or death.

Keep all bystanders, children, and pets at least 10 feet

away.

Wear sturdy and dry shoes or boots. Do not operate while

barefoot.

Do not operate generator when you are tired or under the

influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.

Keep all parts of your body away from any moving parts

and all hot surfaces of the unit.

Do not touch bare wire or receptacles.

Do not use generator with electrical cords which are worn,

frayed, bare, or otherwise damaged.

Before storing, allow the engine to cool for 30 minutes

and drain fuel from the unit.

Do not operate or store the generator in rain, snow, or

wet weather.

Store the generator in a well-ventilated area with the fuel

tank empty. Fuel should not be stored near the generator.

Empty fuel tank, place the easy start lever in the OFF

position, and restrain the unit from moving before trans-

porting in a vehicle.

Provide a plastic sheet or absorbent pad below the

generator to catch any drips of fuel or lubricant when

transporting.

To reduce the risk of fire and burn injury, handle fuel with

care. It is highly flammable.

Do not smoke while handling fuel.

Store fuel in a container approved for gasoline.

Position the unit on level ground, stop engine, and allow

to cool for five minutes before refueling.

Loosen fuel cap slowly to release pressure and to keep

fuel from escaping around the cap.

Tighten the fuel cap securely after refueling.

Wipe spilled fuel from the unit.

Never attempt to burn off spilled fuel under any

circumstances.

Generators vibrate in normal use. During and after the

use of the generator, inspect the generator as well as

extension cords and power supply cords connected to

it for damage resulting from vibration. Have damaged

items repaired or replaced as necessary. Do not use plugs

or cords that show signs of damage such as broken or

cracked insulation or damaged blades.

2. Total the continuous (running) watts of these items. This

is the amount of power the generator must produce to

keep the items running. See the wattage reference chart

at right.

3. Estimate how many surge (starting) watts you will need.

Surge wattage is the short burst of power needed to

start electric motor-driven tools or appliances such as a

circular saw or refrigerator. Because not all motors start

at the same time, total surge watts can be estimated by

adding only the item(s) with the highest additional surge

watts to the total rated watts from step 2.

POWER MANAGEMENT

To prolong the life of the generator and attached devices,

it is important to take care when adding electrical loads to

the generator. There should be nothing connected to the

generator outlets before starting its engine. The correct and

safe way to manage generator power is to sequentially add

loads as follows:

1. With nothing connected to the generator, start the engine

as described later in this manual.

2. Plug in and turn on the first load, preferably the largest

load you have.

3. Permit the generator output to stabilize (engine runs

smoothly and attached device operates properly).

4. Plug in and turn on the next load.

5. Again, permit the generator to stabilize.

6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each additional load.

Never add more loads than the generator capacity. Take

special care to consider surge loads in generator capacity

as previously described.

NOTICE:

Do not overload the generator’s capacity. Exceeding the

generator’s wattage/amperage capacity may damage

the generator and/or electrical devices connected to it.

FEATURES

KNOW YOUR GENERATOR

See Figure 1.

The safe use of this product requires an understanding of the

information on the product and in this operator’s manual as

well as a knowledge of the project you are attempting. Before

use of this product, familiarize yourself with all operating

features and safety rules.

120 V AC RECEPTACLES

Your generator has four single phase, 60 Hz outlets that

are 120 Volt AC, 20 Amp receptacles and one 120 Volt AC

30 Amp RV receptacle. These can be used for operating

appropriate appliances, electrical lighting, tools, and motor

loads.

AC CIRCUIT BREAKER

The circuit breaker is provided to protect the generator

against electrical overload. The circuit breaker may be reset

by pressing the circuit breaker reset button.

AIR FILTER

The air filter helps to limit the amount of dirt and dust drawn

into the unit during operation.

ANSI/UL-2201 CERTIFIED

This generator complies with the ANSI/UL-2201 Standard

for Low Carbon Monoxide (CO) Emission Rates for portable

generators. When used properly, portable generators with

lowered CO emissions and CO shutoff capability mitigate

the risk of CO related poisoning.

DANGER:

ANSI/UL 2201 compliance is not a substitute for safe

generator practices. Always operate the generator in

open, outdoor areas, at least 20 feet away from occu-

pied structures. Never operate the generator near open

windows, doors, or other unventilated spaces.

AUTO IDLE SWITCH

The auto idle switch is used to control the speed of the

engine and conserve fuel. When the switch is in the ON (I)

position and no appliances are connected to the unit, the

engine will idle. If an appliance is added, the engine speed

will increase to power the item. If the appliance is removed,

the engine will return to idle.

AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF

The generator’s carbon monoxide sensor is designed to

monitor the level of carbon monoxide present during genera-

tor operation. If the unit is positioned incorrectly and carbon

monoxide levels rise to an unsafe level, the LED on the sensor

will flash red and the generator will automatically shut down.

Leave the area immediately and relocate to an open outdoor

area. Ventilate the area thoroughly before occupying again.

Ensure the generator is located in an open, outdoor area at

least 20 feet away from all doors, windows, and occupied

spaces, and point exhaust away from occupied structures

before restarting.

NOTE: After a shutoff event has occured, the LED will con-

tinue to flash red for up to 20 minutes. Once the generator

is relocated and CO levels are safe, the generator can be

restarted even if the light is still flashing.

FUEL TANK

The fuel tank has a capacity of 3.3 gallons.

GROUND TERMINAL

The ground terminal is used to assist in properly grounding

the generator to help protect against electrical shock. Con-

sult with a qualified local electrician for grounding require-

ments in your area.

LOW OIL SHUT DOWN PROTECTOR

The low oil sensor causes the engine to stop if the level of

lubricant in the crankcase is insufficient. The engine may

not be restarted until sufficient engine lubricant has been

added to the generator.

OPERATION

DANGER:

Carbon Monoxide. Using a generator indoors CAN KILL

YOU IN MINUTES.

Generator exhaust contains high levels of carbon

monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas you cannot see or smell.

If you can smell the generator exhaust, you are breathing

CO. But even if you cannot smell the exhaust, you could

be breathing CO.

Never use a generator inside homes, garages,

crawlspaces, or other partly enclosed areas. Deadly

levels of carbon monoxide can build up in these

areas. Using a fan or opening windows and doors

does NOT supply enough fresh air.

ONLY use a generator outdoors and far away from

open windows, doors, and vents. These openings

can pull in generator exhaust.

Even when you use a generator correctly, CO may

leak into the home. ALWAYS use a battery-powered or

battery-backup CO alarm in the home.

If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the generator

has been running, move to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See

a doctor. You could have carbon monoxide poisoning.

WARNING:

NEVER ignore an automatic shutoff event. IF AUTOMATIC

SHUTOFF OCCURS – YOU MUST leave the area imme-

diately and relocate to an open outdoor area. Ventilate

the area thoroughly before occupying again. Ensure the

generator is located in an open, outdoor area. Always

point exhaust away from occupied structures. Never

run the generator in enclosed areas (e.g. not in a house

or garage). Failure to follow these instructions can lead

to carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning which can result in

death or serious personal injury.

WARNING:

If this generator will be used only with cord and plug-

connected equipment, National Electric Code does

not require that the unit be grounded. However, other

methods of using the generator may require grounding

to reduce the risk of shock or electrocution. Consult a

qualified electrician, electrical inspector, or local agency

having jurisdiction for local codes or ordinances to find

out if grounding is needed in your situation before using

the generator.

CHECKING/ADDING LUBRICANT

See Figure 7.

NOTICE:

Attempting to start the engine before it has been properly

filled with lubricant will result in equipment failure.

NOTE: If a separate engine manual is provided for this

product, please follow the instructions provided in the

engine manual instead of the information listed below.

Engine lubricant has a major influence on engine perfor-

mance and service life. For general, all-temperature use,

SAE 10W-30 is recommended. Always use a 4-stroke motor

lubricant that meets or exceeds the requirements for API

service classification SJ.

This engine comes with a feature that will shut off the engine

when a specific lubricant level is not maintained. The engine

will not restart until an appropriate lubricant level is reached.

NOTE: Non-detergent or 2-stroke engine lubricants will

damage the engine and should not be used.

 Unscrew the oil cap/dipstick and remove.

 Wipe dipstick clean and re-seat in hole; do not re-thread.

 Remove dipstick again and check lubricant level. Lubricant

level should fall between the minimum and maximum

marks on the dipstick.

 If level is low, add engine lubricant until the fluid level

rises between the minimum and maximum marks on the

dipstick.

 Replace and secure the oil cap/dipstick.

USING FUEL STABILIZER

Fuel gets old, oxidizes, and breaks down over time. Adding

a fuel stabilizer (not included) extends the usable life of fuel

and helps prevent deposits from forming that can clog the

fuel system. Follow fuel stabilizer manufacturer’s directions

for correct ratio of stabilizer to fuel.

Mix fuel stabilizer and gasoline prior to filling the tank

by using a gas can or other approved fuel container and

shaking gently to combine.

NOTE: To control the amount of fuel stabilizer being

added to the engine, always mix fuel stabilizer with

gasoline before fueling the tank rather than adding fuel

stabilizer directly into the generator’s fuel tank.

 Replace and secure the fuel tank cap.

 Start and run the engine for at least 5 minutes to allow

stabilizer to treat the entire fuel system.
