use to prolong battery life.The charger has a built in
float equalizer and will not overcharge the battery,
even when plugged in for an extended period of time.
IMPORTANT: See "Battery Maintenance" on page 15 for
additional information.
COLD WEATHER
OPERATION
Under certain weather conditions (temperatures below
40°F [4°C] combined with high humidity), your generator
may experience icing of the carburetor and/or the
crankcase breather system.To reduce this problem, you
need to perform the following:
1.
Make sure generator has clean, fresh fuel.
2.
Open fuel valve (turn valve to open position).
3.
Use SAE 5W-30 oil (synthetic preferred, see engine
manual).
4.
Check oil level daily or after every eight (8) hours of
operation.
5.
Maintain generator following "Maintenance Schedule"
in engine manual.
6.
Shelter unit from elements.
Section 4: Operation

temporary shelter:
7.
Cut off all carton flaps.
8.
Cut out one long side of carton to expose muffler side
of unit as shown in Figure 10.
Figure 10 — Permanent Cold Weather Shelter
IMPORTANT: The generator must be at least 5 ft.
(152 cm) from structures having combustible walls and/or
other combustible materials. Leave at least 3 ft. (92 cm) all
around generator including overhead, for adequate cooling,
maintenance and servicing.
WARNING
Running engines produce heat.Temperature of
muffler and nearby areas can reach or exceed
150°F (65°C).
Severe burns can occur on contact.
Combustible debris, such as leaves, grass, brush,
etc. can catch fire.
• DO NOT touch hot surfaces.
• Allow equipment to cool before touching.
• The generator must be at least 5 feet from structures having
combustible walls and/or other combustible materials.
• Keep at least 3 feet of clearance on all sides of generator for
adequate cooling, maintenance and servicing.
• Reflective exhaust heat may damage fuel tank causing fire.
• Remove shelter when temperatures are above 40°F [4°C].
9.
Cut appropriate slots to access receptacles of unit.
10. Start unit, then place carton over it.
