Equipment Description
Read this manual carefully and become familiar
with your outdoor generator. Know its applications,
its limitations, and any hazards involved. Save
these original instructions for future reference.
The generator is an engine–driven, revolving field,
alternating and direct current (AC & DC) generator. It
was designed to supply electrical power for operating
compatible electrical lighting, appliances, tools and motor
loads. The generator’s revolving field is driven at about
by a single-cylinder engine.
The outdoor generator can be used to power outdoor
items using extension cords or to restore home power
using a transfer switch. A transfer switch is a separate
device installed by a licensed electrician that allows the
portable generator to be cord connected, using the locking
receptacle, directly into your home’s electrical system.
Install a listed transfer switch as soon as possible if
generator will be used to provide home power restoration.
Every effort has been made to ensure that the information
in this manual is both accurate and current. However, the
manufacturer reserves the right to change, alter or otherwise
improve the generator and this documentation at any time
without prior notice.

Operation
Operation
Before starting the portable generator there are two equally
important safety concerns regarding carbon monoxide
poisoning and fire that must be addressed.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
The engine exhaust of all fossil fuel burning equipment,
such as a portable generator, contains carbon monoxide,
a poisonous gas that will kill you in minutes. You cannot
smell it, see it, or taste it. Even if you do not smell exhaust
fumes, you could still be exposed to carbon monoxide gas.
By law in many jurisdictions it is required to have a carbon
monoxide alarm in operating condition in your home.
A carbon monoxide alarm is an electronic device that
detects hazardous levels of carbon monoxide. When there
is a buildup of carbon monoxide, the alarm will alert the
occupants by flashing visual indicator light and alarm.
Smoke alarms cannot detect carbon monoxide gas.
DANGER! Engine exhaust contains carbon
monoxide, a poisonous gas that wil kill you in
minutes. You cannot smell it, see it, or taste it.
Even if you do not smell exhaust fumes, you could still be
exposed to carbon monoxide gas.
• Operate portable generator only outdoors, at least
20 ft. (6.1 m) from occupied spaces with exhaust
pointed away to reduce the risk of carbon monoxide
accumulating.
• Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms or
plug-in carbon monoxide alarms with battery back-up
according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Smoke
alarms cannot detect carbon monoxide gas.
• Do not run portable generator inside homes, garages,
basements, crawlspaces, sheds, or other partially-
enclosed spaces even if using fans or opening doors
and windows for ventilation. Carbon monoxide can
quickly build up in these spaces and can linger for
hours, even after this product has shut off
If you start to feel sick, dizzy, weak, or your homes carbon
monoxide alarm sounds while using this product, get to
fresh air right away. Call emergency services. You may
have carbon monoxide poisoning.
Install carbon monoxide alarm
inside your home. Without
working carbon monoxide
alarms, you will not realize you
are getting sick and dying from
carbon monoxide poisoning.
20 ft. (6.1 m) min.
• Use outdoors at least 20 ft. (6.1 m) from any home.
• Point exhaust away from all homes and occupied spaces.
• Install CO alarms inside your home.

Fuel must meet these requirements:
• Clean, fresh, unleaded fuel with a minimum of 87 octane.
• Gasoline with an ethanol content up to 10% is acceptable.
E15
NOTICE Do not mix oil in fuel or modify engine to run on
alternate fuels. Use of unapproved fuels could damage
engine and will not be covered under warranty.
See High Altitude for 5,000 ft. and above.
WARNING! Fuel and its vapors are extremely
flammable which could cause burns or fire
resulting in death or serious injury.
• Do not refuel or move during operation.
• Do not smoke during refueling.
• Turn engine off and let it cool at least 2 minutes before
removing fuel cap.
• Fill fuel tank outdoors. Keep fuel away from sparks, open
flames, pilot lights, heat, and other ignition sources.
Check fuel lines, tank, cap and fittings frequently for
cracks or leaks. Replace if necessary.
1. Move generator outdoors to a flat, level surface.
2. Loosen the three maintenance cover screws and
remove the side maintenance cover.
3. Clean area around oil fill and remove dipstick.
4. Using oil funnel, slowly pour oil into oil fill opening.
5. Checking oil level frequently, fill to full mark (top hole)
on dipstick.
NOTICE Pause to permit oil to settle. Wipe dipstick clean
each time oil level is checked. DO NOT overfill.
6. Replace and fully tighten dipstick.
7. Replace the maintenance cover and hand tighten the
three maintenance cover screws.
8. Slowly remove fuel cap to relieve pressure in tank.
9. Slowly add unleaded fuel to fuel tank. Be careful not
to fill above lip. This allows adequate space for fuel
expansion.
10. Install fuel cap and let any spilled fuel evaporate
before starting engine.
At altitudes over 5,000 ft. (1524 m), a minimum 85 octane
fuel is acceptable. To remain emissions compliant, high
altitude adjustment is required. Operation without this
adjustment will cause decreased performance, increased
fuel consumption,
and increased emissions.
See an authorized Briggs & Stratton dealer for high altitude
adjustment information. Operation of the engine at altitudes
below 2,500 ft. (762 m) with the high altitude kit is not
recommended.
Transporting
When transporting equipment with a vehicle or trailer,
turn engine switch to off (0) position. Do not tip engine or
equipment at an angle which causes fuel to spill.
NOTICE Do not lift or carry generator by retractable
handle. Handholds provided for convenient lifting.
The low oil indicator system is designed to prevent engine
damage caused by not enough engine oil. If the engine
oil level drops below a preset level, the red LED low oil
indicator light comes on and an oil level switch will stop the
engine. If the engine stops or the red LED low oil indicator
light comes on when you pull the recoil handle, check the
engine oil level.

Step 3: Generator Start Up
NOTICE Always have QPT switch OFF (0) when starting or
stopping generator or when using DC USB ports.
Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator. Use the
following start instructions:
1. Make sure unit is outdoors on a level surface.
NOTICE Failure to operate the unit on a level surface may
cause the unit to shut down.
2. Pull choke control out to close choke ( ).
3. Turn engine switch to ON (I) position.
4. Grasp recoil starter handle and pull slowly until slight
resistance is felt. Then pull rapidly once to start engine.
5. Open choke gradually as engine warms up by pushing
in on choke handle.
NOTICE If engine fails to start, push choke control in and
repeat step 4. If engine starts but fails to run, see Low Oil
Indicator in Oil and Fuel.
Using Extension Cords
Use only grounded extension cords marked for outdoor
use rated for your loads. Follow cord safety instructions.
WARNING! Damaged or overloaded extension
cords could overheat, arc, and burn resulting in
death or serious injury.
The power use monitor indicates the percentage of total
generator load using 4 LED’s. The first green LED indicates
the generator is operating normally or producing more than
25% load. The second green LED comes on after 50% load
is reached. The yellow LED comes on after 75% load is
reached. The red LED flashes when load reaches 100%.
Overload Reset
If the generator is overloaded, the red 100% load LED
illuminates and cuts power to the receptacles. You
must turn off and unplug all electrical loads. Press the
OVERLOAD RESET button on the generator control panel
and then plug in and restart electrical loads one at a time to
continue in normal operating mode.
The maximum current available for the USB ports is 2.1 Amps
at 5 Volts. The USB port allows you to recharge most USB
powered devices with a USB charging cable (not included).
NOTICE For maximum output when charging Apple
devices, use the bottom USB port.
NOTICE For charging ITE (Information Technology
Equipment) only.
Use each receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, single-phase,
60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to 2,400 Watts (2.4 kW)
at 20 Amps of current.
The duplex receptacles are equipped with Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection. The GFCI protects
against electrical shock that may be caused if your body
becomes a path which electricity travels to reach ground.
When protected by a GFCI, one may still feel a shock, but
the GFCI is intended to cut current off quickly enough so
that a person in normal health should not suffer any serious
electrical injury.
WARNING! Generator voltage could cause
electrical shock or burn resulting in death or
serious injury. Contact with the hot and neutral
conductor at the same time could cause electrical shock
or burn, even if the circuit is GFCI protected.
With the engine running, test your GFCI outlet prior to each
use, as follows:
• Push the “Test” button. The “Reset” button should pop
out, which should allow no power to reach the outlet.
• Press the “Reset” button firmly until it is fully in place
and locks in that position. If the GFCI outlet does
not reset properly, do not use the outlet. Call or take
your generator to a local Briggs & Stratton authorized
service dealer.
• If the GFCI trips by itself at any time, reset and test the
outlet.

Operation
Use a NEMA L14-30 plug with this receptacle. Connect a
4-wire cord set rated for 250 Volt AC loads at 30 Amps. The
generator’s locking receptacle is not protected by a GFCI.
This receptacle powers 120/240 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single
phase loads requiring up to 5,000 Watts of power (5.0kW)
at 20.8 Amps for 240 Volts or two independent 120 Volt
loads at 20.8 Amps each.
Generator Capacity
To make sure your generator can supply enough running
watts and starting watts for the items you will power at the
same time, follow these three simple steps:
1. Select the items you will power at the same time. See
following list for typical wattages.
Tool or Appliance
Running
Watts*
Starting
Watts**
Light Bulb - 75 Watt 75 -
Sump Pump - 1/3 HP 1140 2850

Microwave Oven - 1000 Watt 1000 -
Plasma Television - 50” 500 -
Laptop 250 -
Garage Door Opener - 1/2 HP 300 500
* Typical wattages listed are approximate only. Check tool
or appliance for actual wattage.
** The momentary electrical current the generator can
provide to start electric motors, per Briggs & Stratton
standard 628K. It does not represent the power required to
continuously run electrical loads. It is the maximum current
that can momentarily be supplied when starting a motor,
multiplied by the generator’s rated voltage.
2. Total the running watts. This is the amount of power
your generator must produce to keep your items
running. See following example:
Example
Tool or Appliance Running Watts Starting Watts
Window AC - 10000 BTU
1000 2100
Refrigerator/Freezer 550 1350
Plasma Television 500 —

2125 Total
Running Watts
2100 Highest
Starting Watts
Total running watts = 2125
Highest starting watts = 2100
Total generator watts required = 4225
3. Estimate the starting watts you will need. Because not
all motors start at the same time, total starting wattage
can be estimated by adding only the item with the
highest additional starting watts requirements to the
total running watts from step 2.
To manage generator power, sequentially add loads as
follows:
1. With nothing connected to generator, start the engine
outdoors.
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 starting watts in generator
capacity.
Automatically shuts down the engine when harmful levels
of carbon monoxide accumulate around the generator or
a CO shutdown system fault occurs. After shutdown, the
indicator light will blink for at least five minutes per the
chart below.
The CO shutdown system DOES NOT replace carbon
monoxide alarms. Install battery-powered carbon monoxide
alarm(s) in your home. Do not run generator in enclosed
areas.

Oil Recommendations
We recommend the use of Briggs & Stratton Warranty
Certified oils for best performance. Other high-quality
detergent oils are acceptable if classified for service SF,
SG, SH, SJ or higher. Do not use special additives.
Outdoor temperatures determine the proper oil viscosity
for the engine. Use the chart to select the best viscosity for
the outdoor temperature range expected. Engines on most
outdoor power equipment operate well with 5W30 Synthetic
oil. For equipment operated in hot temperatures, Vanguard®
15W50 Synthetic oil provides the best protection.
* Below 40°F (4°C) the use of SAE 30 will result in hard starting.
** Above 80°F (27°C) the use of 10W30 may cause increased oil
consumption. Check oil level more frequently.
Oil level should be checked prior to each use or at least
every 8 hours of operation. Keep oil level maintained.
1. Make sure generator is on a level surface.
2. Loosen the three maintenance cover screws and
remove the side maintenance cover.
3. Clean area around oil fill, remove dipsitck and wipe

Storage
If storing the unit for more than 30 days, use the following
guidelines to prepare it for storage.
1. Clean the generator as outlined in Cleaning.
2. Change engine oil while engine is still warm, drain oil
from crankcase. Refill with recommended grade. See
Changing Engine Oil.
3. Treat or drain fuel from generator as fuel can become
stale when stored over 30 days.
Each time you fill the container with fuel, add STA-BIL
360°® PROTECTION™ to the fuel as specified by the
manufacturer’s instructions. This keeps fuel fresh and
decreases fuel-related problems or contamination in the
fuel system.
It is not necessary to drain fuel from the engine when STA-
BIL 360°® PROTECTION™ is added as instructed. Before
storage, turn the engine ON for 2 minutes to move the fuel
and stabilizer through the fuel system.
If fuel in the engine has not been treated with STA-
BIL 360°® PROTECTION™, it must be drained into an
approved container. Then run the engine until it stops from
lack of fuel.
WARNING!
Fuel and its vapors are extremely
flammable and explosive which could cause
burns, fire or explosion resulting in death or
serious injury.
• When storing fuel or equipment with fuel in tank, store
away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters, clothes dryers
or other appliances that have pilot light or other ignition
source because they could ignite fuel vapors.
• When draining fuel, turn generator engine off and let it
cool at least 2 minutes before removing fuel cap. Loosen
cap slowly to relieve pressure in tank. Drain fuel tank
outdoors. Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot
lights, heat, and other ignition sources.
• Check fuel lines, tank, cap and fittings frequently for
cracks or leaks. Replace if necessary.
4. Store generator in clean, dry area and cover with a
suitable protective cover that does not retain moisture.
WARNING! Storage covers could cause a fire
resulting in death or serious injury.
• Do not place a storage cover over a hot generator. Let
equipment cool for a sufficient time before placing the
cover on the equipment.

The gross power rating for individual gasoline engine models is labeled in accordance with SAE (Society of Automotive
Engineers) code J1940 Small Engine Power & Torque Rating Procedure, and is rated in accordance with SAE J1995. Torque values are
derived at 2600 RPM for those engines with “rpm” called out on the label and 3060 RPM for all others; horsepower values are derived
at 3600 RPM. The gross power curves can be viewed at www.BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM. Net power values are taken with exhaust
and air cleaner installed whereas gross power values are collected without these attachments. Actual gross engine power will be higher
than net engine power and is affected by, among other things, ambient operating conditions and engine-to-engine variability. Given the
wide array of products on which engines are placed, the gasoline engine may not develop the rated gross power when used in a given
piece of power equipment. This difference is due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to, the variety of engine components
(air cleaner, exhaust, charging, cooling, carburetor, fuel pump, etc.), application limitations, ambient operating conditions (temperature,
humidity, altitude), and engine-to engine variability. Due to manufacturing and capacity limitations, Briggs & Stratton may substitute an
engine of higher rated power for this engine.
*Generator certified in accordance with CSA (Canadian Standards Association) standard C22.2 No. 100-14, Motors and Generators
and PGMA (Portable Generator Manufacturers’ Association) standard ANSI/PGMA G300-2018, Safety and Performance of Portable
