Ground Fault Protection
This unit is equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI).This device meets applicable federal,
state and local codes.
The GFCI protects against electrical shock that may be
caused if your body becomes a path which electricity
travels to reach ground.This could happen if you touch a
“Live” appliance or wire, or are touching plumbing or other
materials that connect to the ground.
When protected by a GFCI, one may still feel a shock, but
the GFCI should cut current off quickly enough so that a
person in normal health should not suffer any serious
electrical injury.
Test GFCI Circuit Breaker
Test your GFCI circuit breaker (Figure 12) every month, as
follows:
1. While generator is running, push white Test” button.
The circuit breaker should trip (handle will move to
approximate center position), which will disconnect
power to outlets.
2. If handle moves to center, reset circuit breaker by
firmly moving handle to Off” (down) position, then to
On” (up) position.
During Generator Use
If circuit breaker trips during use, it usually indicates faulty
electrical equipment or cords. However, test the circuit
breaker as follows;
1. Disconnect loads, reset and test circuit breaker as
described earlier. Let generator run without any loads
for 1 minute.
2. If circuit breaker tests correctly, the electrical equipment
or extension cords may be faulty. Replace faulty
electrical equipment and cords before further use.
DO NOT touch bare wires or receptacles.
DO NOT use generator with electrical cords which are worn,
frayed, bare or otherwise damaged.
DO NOT operate generator in the rain.
DO NOT handle generator or electrical cords while standing
in water, while barefoot, or while hands or feet are wet.
DO NOT allow unqualified persons or children to operate or
service generator or electrical loads.
Generator produces powerful voltage.
DANGER
The GFCI will not protect you against the following situations:
-Line-to-line shocks;
-Current overloads or line-to-line short circuits.
The fuse or circuit breaker at the control panel must provide
such protection.
Generator produces powerful voltage.
DANGER
DO NOT use generator.

BSPP Generator
DON'T OVERLOAD
GENERATOR
Capacity
You must make sure your generator can supply enough
rated (running) and surge (starting) watts for the items you
will power at the same time. Follow these simple steps:
1. Select the items you will power at the same time.
2. Total the rated (running) watts of these items.This is
the amount of power your generator must produce to
keep your items running. See Figure 13.
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.
Example:
Total Rated (Running) Watts = 3075
Highest Additional Surge Watts = 1800
Total Generator Output Required = 4875
Power Management
To prolong the life of your generator and attached devices,
it is important to take care when adding electrical loads to
your generator.There should be nothing connected to the
generator outlets before starting it's 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 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 described above.
*Wattages listed are approximate only. Check tool or
appliance for actual wattage.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
RECOMMENDATIONS
The Owner/Operator is responsible for making sure that
all periodic maintenance tasks are completed on a timely
basis; that all discrepancies are corrected; and that the unit
is kept clean and properly stored. NEVER operate a
damaged or defective generator.
Engine Maintenance
See engine owner’s manual for instructions.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. DON'T
POLLUTE. CONSERVE RESOURCES. RETURN
USED OIL TO COLLECTION CENTERS.
Generator Maintenance
Generator maintenance consists of keeping the unit clean
and dry. Operate and store the unit in a clean dry
environment where it will not be exposed to excessive
dust, dirt, moisture or any corrosive vapors. Cooling air
slots in the generator must not become clogged with snow,
leaves or any other foreign material.
NOTE: DO NOT use a garden hose to clean generator.
Water can enter engine fuel system and cause problems. In
addition, if water enters generator through cooling air slots,
some of the water will be retained in voids and cracks of
the rotor and stator winding insulation.Water and dirt
buildup on the generator internal windings will eventually
decrease the insulation resistance of these windings.
Fuel Valve Maintenance
The fuel valve is equipped with a fuel sediment cup, screen,
retaining ring and o-ring that need to be cleaned every
6 months or 100 hours (whichever occurs first).
1. Move fuel valve to Off” position.
2. Remove sediment cup from fuel valve. Remove o-ring,
retaining ring and screen from fuel valve (Figure 14).
3. Wash sediment cup, o-ring, retaining ring, and screen in
a nonflammable solvent. Dry them thoroughly.
4. Place screen, retaining ring, and o-ring into fuel valve.
Install sediment cup and tighten securely.
5. Move fuel valve to On” position, and check for leaks.
Replace o-ring if there is any leakage.
Used motor oil has been shown to cause skin cancer in
certain laboratory animals.
Thoroughly wash exposed areas with soap and water.
Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact with used
motor oil.
CAUTION
WHEN ADJUSTING OR MAKING REPAIRS TO YOUR
GENERATOR
Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and place
the wire where it cannot contact spark plug.
Unintentional sparking can result in fire or
electric shock.

Battery Maintenance
Other than float charging, described elsewhere, no
maintenance is required for the starting battery. Keep the
battery and terminals clean and dry.
IMPORTANT: Battery charging should be performed in a
dry location, such as inside a garage.
Generator Cleaning
Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
Use a soft bristle brush to loosen caked on dirt or oil.
Use a vacuum cleaner to pick up loose dirt and debris.
Use low pressure air (not to exceed 25 psi) to blow
away dirt. Inspect cooling air slots and opening on
generator.These openings must be kept clean and
unobstructed.
STORAGE
The generator should be started at least once every seven
days and allowed to run at least 30 minutes. If this cannot
be done and you must store the unit for more than
30 days, use the following guidelines to prepare it for
storage.
Generator Storage
Clean the generator as outlined in “Generator Cleaning”.
Check that cooling air slots and openings on generator
are open and unobstructed.
Engine Storage
See engine owner’s manual for instructions.
Other Storage Tips
To prevent gum from forming in fuel system or on
essential carburetor parts, add fuel stabilizer into fuel
tank and fill with fresh fuel. Run the unit for several
minutes to circulate the additive through the carburetor.
The unit and fuel can then be stored for up to
24 months. Fuel stabilizer can be purchased locally.
DO NOT store fuel from one season to another unless
it has been treated as described above.
Replace fuel container if it starts to rust. Rust and/or dirt
in fuel can cause problems if it's used with this unit.
Store unit in a clean and dry area.
DO NOT place a storage cover over a hot generator.
Let equipment cool for a sufficient time before placing the
cover on the equipment.
Storage covers can be flammable.
WARNING
DO NOT expose generator to excessive moisture, dust, dirt,
or corrosive vapors.
DO NOT insert any objects through cooling slots.
Improper treatment of generator can damage it and
shorten its life.
