CO Detection
Carbon Monoxide (CO) Detection and Shutoff System (if equipped)
DANGER: Asphyxiation. Running engines produce
carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless, poison-
ous gas. Carbon monoxide, if not avoided, will
result in death or serious injury. (000103)
WARNING: Asphyxiation. Always use a battery
operated carbon monoxide alarm indoors and
installed according to the manufacturer’s
instructions. Failure to do so could result in death
or serious injury. (000178a)
The CO Detection module monitors for the accumula-
tion of poisonous CO gas found in engine exhaust when
the generator is running. CO Detection automatically
shuts off the engine if it detects increasing levels of CO
gas. CO Detection only monitors when the engine is
running. Generators are intended to be used outdoors,
far from occupied buildings, with the exhaust pointed
away from personnel and buildings. However, if misused
and operated in a location which results in the accumu-
lation of CO—like indoors or in a partially enclosed
area—CO Detection shuts off the engine, notifies the
user of what has happened, and directs the user to read
the instruction action label for steps to take (Fig. H). CO
Detection is not a substitute for an indoor carbon mon-
oxide alarm.
As the user approaches the generator to investigate a
shutoff, a blinking RED light in the CO Detection badge
on the side of the generator notifies the user the genera-
tor was shutoff due to an accumulating CO hazard. The
RED light will blink for at least five minutes after a CO
shutoff. Move the generator to an open, outdoor area
and point the exhaust away from people and occupied
buildings. Once relocated to a safe area, the generator
can be restarted and the correct electrical connections
made to supply electrical power. The RED light will stop
blinking automatically upon engine start. Introduce
fresh air and ventilate the location where the generator
had shut down.
If a CO Detection system fault has occurred and no lon-
ger provides protection, the portable generator shuts off
automatically, and the YELLOW light in the CO Detection
badge will blink for at least five minutes to notify the
user of the fault. The CO Detection module can only be
diagnosed and repaired by a trained technician at the
dealer. The generator can be started, but may continue
to shutoff.
CO Detection will detect the accumulation of CO from
other fuel burning sources such as engine powered tools
or propane heaters used in the area of operation. For
example, if another generator is used and the exhaust is
pointed at a CO Detection equipped generator, CO
Detection may initiate a shutoff due to rising CO levels.
This is not an error as hazardous CO has been detected.
The user must take action to move and redirect these
devices to better dissipate CO far away from personnel
and occupied buildings.
See Fig. G. IF red LED
A
is flashing, a CO Shutoff has
occurred.
IF yellow LED
B
is flashing, a CO System Fault has
occurred.

Fuel
DANGER: Explosion and Fire. Fuel and vapors are
extremely flammable and explosive. Add fuel in a
well ventilated area. Keep fire and spark away.
Failure to do so will result in death or serious
injury. (000105)
DANGER: Explosion and Fire. Do not fill fuel tank
past full line. Allow for fuel expansion. Overfilling
may cause fuel to spill onto engine causing fire or
explosion, which will result in death or serious
injury. (000214)
Fuel requirements are as follows:
Clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline.
Minimum rating of 87 octane/87 AKI (91 RON).
Up to 10% ethanol (gasohol) is acceptable (where
available; non-ethanol fuel is recommended).
DO NOT use E85.
DO NOT use a gas oil mix.
DO NOT modify engine to run on alternate fuels. Stabi-
lize fuel prior to storage.
1. Verify unit is OFF and cooled entirely prior to fueling.
2. Place unit on level ground in a well ventilated area.
3. Clean area around fuel cap.
4. Turn fuel cap slowly to remove.
5. Slowly add recommended fuel. Do not overfill.
6. Install fuel cap.
NOTE: Allow spilled fuel to evaporate before starting unit.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is important to prevent gum depos-
its from forming in fuel system parts such as the carbu-
retor, fuel hose or tank during storage. Alcohol-blended
fuels (called gasohol, ethanol, or methanol) can attract
moisture, which leads to separation and formation of
acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel
system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine
problems, the fuel system should be emptied before
storage of 30 days or longer. See the Storage section.
Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the
fuel tank as permanent damage may occur.

and from the AC outlet ground pin. Electrical devices
requiring a grounded outlet pin connection will not
function if the outlet ground pin is not functional.
Know Generator Limits
Overloading a generator can result in damage to the
generator and connected electrical devices. Observe the
following to prevent overload:
Add the total wattage of all electrical devices to be con-
nected at one time. This total should NOT be greater
than the generator's wattage capacity.
The rated wattage of lights can be taken from light
bulbs. The rated wattage of tools, appliances, and
motors can be found on a data label or decal affixed to
the device.
If the appliance, tool, or motor does not give wattage,
multiply volts times ampere rating to determine watts
(volts x amps = Watts).
Some electric motors, such as induction types, require
approximately three times more Watts of power for
starting than for running. This surge of power lasts only
a few seconds when starting such motors. Allow for
higher starting wattage when selecting electrical
devices to connect to the generator:
1. Calculate wattage needed to start the largest motor.
2. Add the running Watts of all other connected loads
to that figure.
The Wattage Reference Guide is provided to assist in
determining how many items the generator can operate
at one time.
NOTE: All figures are approximate. See data label on appli-
ance for wattage requirements.

WARNING: Vision Loss. Eye protection is required
to avoid spray from spark plug hole when crank-
ing engine. Failure to do so could result in vision
loss. (000181)
Fuel stored over 30 days can go bad and damage fuel
system components. Keep fuel fresh, use fuel stabilizer.
If fuel stabilizer is added to fuel system, prepare and run
engine for long term storage. Run engine for 10–15 min-
utes to circulate stabilizer throughout fuel system. Ade-
quately prepared fuel can be stored up to 24 months.
NOTE: If fuel has not been treated with fuel stabilizer, it
must be drained into an approved container. Run engine
until it stops from lack of fuel. Use of fuel stabilizer in fuel
storage container is recommended to keep fuel fresh.
