LUbRICATION

DO NOT attempt to start this engine without filling the crank
case with the proper amount and type of lubricant. (See the
accompanying engine manual for this information.) Your genera-
tor has been shipped from the factory without lubricant in the
crankcase. Operating the unit without lubricant can damage the
engine.
Fill the engine with lubricant according to the engine man-
ual. For units with a dipstick, fill lubricant to the proper level.
Units without a dipstick should be filled to the top of the opening
of the lubricant fill.

FUEL

Fill the tank with clean, fresh unleaded automotive gasoline.
Regular grade gasoline may be used provided a high octane
rating is obtained (at least 85 pump octane). We recommend
always using a fuel stabilizer. A fuel stabilizer will minimize the
formulation of fuel gum deposits during storage. The fuel sta-
bilizer can be added to the gasoline in the fuel tank, or into the
gasoline in a storage container. Do not use E85 fuel.
CAUTION:
Do not overfill the tank. Keep maximum fuel level 1/4 inch
below the top of the fuel tank. This will allow expansion in
hot weather and prevent overflow.

STARTING THE UNIT

DANGER:
Gasoline is very dangerous. Serious injury or death can result
from fire caused by gasoline contacting hot surfaces.
 Do not fill fuel tank with engine running.
 Do not spill fuel while refilling tank.
 Do not mix lubricant with gasoline.
 Follow all instructions and warnings in the engine
manual.

PRE-START PREPARATION

Before starting the generator, check for loose or missing
parts and for any damage which may have occurred during
shipment.
wARNING:
This generator must not be operated without all factory installed
heat shields in place. Failure to comply may cause the fuel
tank to overheat and result in personal injury from fire.

STARTING THE ENGINE

 Check lubricant level and fuel.
 Disconnect all electrical loads from the unit.
 Open fuel shut off valve.
 Adjust choke as necessary.
 Set the engine switch to the "ON" position.
 Pull on the starter rope with fast steady pull. As the engine
warms up, readjust the choke.
DANGER:
 Provide adequate ventilation for toxic exhaust gases and
cooling air flow.
 Do not start or run the generator in an enclosed area, even
if door or windows are open.
 Engines give off carbon monoxide, an odorless, colorless,
poison gas.
 Breathing carbon monoxide can cause nausea, fainting
or death.
CAUTION:
Allow generator to run at no load for five minutes upon each
initial start-up to permit engine and generator to stabilize.
