NOTICE
The engine is equipped with a low oil shutdown
switch. If the oil level becomes low, the engine will
shut down and will not start until the oil is filled to the
proper level.
Be sure the engine has the proper oil level before
using. Failure to verify that the engine has the proper
oil level could result in engine damage.
Disconnect all loads from the generator before
starting. Failure to verify all loads are disconnected
prior to starting the generator could result in damage
to the connected appliances.
1. Verify the battery is properly installed and both
battery cables are attached (see Installing the
Battery on page 14).
2. Make sure the circuit breakers are properly set (see
