deterioration, such as chafed or spongy hose, loose or
missing clamps, or damaged tank or cap. All defects
should be corrected before operation.

The generator should be operated serviced,
and refueled under the follow conditions:
EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.
a. Start and run the generator outdoors. Do not run the
generator in an enclosed area, even if doors or windows
PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIE
are open; avoid areas where vapors may be trapped,
such as pits, garages, cellars, excavations, etc.
DANGER-CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD;
the engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide,a
EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.
poisonous odorless, invisible gas which, if
breathed, may cause death or serious personal
injury. If you start to feel sick, dizzy or weak while using
PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIE
the generator, shut it off and get to fresh air right away;
you may have carbon monoxide poisoning.
b. Provide good ventilation for cooling. Adequate air flow
and ambient temperature are important for air cooled
EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.
units. Ambient temperature should not exceed 104ºF
ambient (40ºC).
c. Refuel the generator in a well lighted area. Avoid fuel
PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIE
spills and never refuel while the generator is running.
Allow engine to cool for two minutes prior to refueling.
d. Do not refuel near open flames, pilot lights, or
sparking electrical equipment such power tools, welders
EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.
or grinders.
e. The muffler and air filter must be installed and
permanently kept in good condition as they function as
PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIE
flame arrest if backfiring occurs.
f. Do not smoke near the generator.
15
Ensure that the generator is properly grounded (see
EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS. Grounding the Generator section in this manual).
16
Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry, or anything
that may fall into the alternator or other rotating
parts.
PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIE
17
Unit must reach operating speed before electrical loads
are connected. Disconnect loads before turning off the
EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.
engine.
18 To prevent surging that may possibly damage the
equipment do not allow engine to run out of fuel when
electrical loads are applied.
PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIE
When powering solid state equipment, a power line
19
conditioner should be used to prevent possible damage
to the equipment.
EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.
Do not stick anything through ventilating slots, even
20
when the generator is not operating. This can damage
the generator or cause personal injury.
21
Before transporting the generator in a vehicle, drain all
PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIE
fuel to prevent leakage that may occur.
22
Use proper lifting techniques when transporting the
generator from site to site. Improper lifting techniques
EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.
may result in personal injury.
PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIE
23
To avoid burns, do not touch engine muffler or other
EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.
engine or generator surfaces which became hot during
operation.
24
Do not alter or modify the heat shield.

NOISE CAUTIONS
The generator can produce high noise levels. Prolonged
exposure to noise levels above 85 dBA is a hazard to
hearing. Always wear ear protection when operating or
working around the generator when it is running.
DEFINING TOTAL WATTAGE
1 In order to prevent overloading and possible damage
to your generator it is necessary to know total wattage
of the connected load. To determine which load and or
appliances your generator can run follow these steps.
2
Check wattage requirements by referring to the load
nameplate or by calculating it (multiply amps x volts = watts).
You can get help for calculation using the Table 1
3
Totalize the watts required for all the loads intended to
be connected to the generator.
4
Motorized appliances or tools require more than their
rated wattage for start up.
NOTE: Consider 2 ½ to 4 times the listed wattage for
starting of equipment powered by electric motors.
5
The generator's rated watts should match or exceed
the total number of watts required for the equipment
you want to run.
6
The altitude and temperature at which the generator
operates can modify the generator ratings. Use the
Table2 to calculate the generator ratings, apply the
specified de-rating percentages when operation
conditions are above 68 ºF ambient temperature and/or
the altitude above sea level is major than 1000 ft.
Always connect the heaviest load to the generator first,
7
and then add other items one at a time.
CONTINUOUS POWER DE-RATING /
UP-RATING
The generator rated capacity is designed to deliver electrical
power when operating at the field decreases due mainly to
a couple of factors which are operation to an altitude and
ambient temperature above those of design, but also due to
poor engine conditions, fuel octane level and maintenance.
On the other hand, that capacity is increased under operation
conditions of not continuous load supplied by the generator.
Table 2 shows the predictable percentage to decrease/
increase the designed rated capacity to deliver electrical
power by a generator when operating at the field.
