APPLICATIONS
This generator is designed to supply electrical power for
operating compatible electrical lighting, appliances, tools,
and motor loads.
BEFORE OPERATING THE UNIT
 Only use OUTSIDE and at least 20 feet away from
windows, doors, and vents as recommended by the U.S
Department of Health and Human Services Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention. Your specific home and/
or wind conditions may require additional distance.
 NEVER use inside a home or garage, EVEN IF doors and
windows are open.
 Always position the generator on a flat, firm surface.
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS:
There may be General or State Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA) regulations, local codes or
ordinances that apply to the intended use of the generator.
Please consult a qualified electrician, electrical inspector, or
the local agency having jurisdiction:
 In some areas, generators are required to be registered
with local utility companies.
 If the generator is used at a construction site, there may
be additional regulations which must be observed.
RAISING AND LOWERING THE HANDLE
See Figure 8 - 9.
 Attach the lanyard to the handle lock pin and generator.
 To raise the handle (for moving the generator): pull the
handle release knob out, raise the handle, then release
the knob so it snaps into the locking position. Insert the
handle lock pin to secure the handle in place.
OPERATION
 To lower the handle (for storing or transporting the
generator): remove the handle lock pin, then pull the
handle release knob out and lower the handle to the down
position.
Never use the handle to lift the generator. The handle should
only be used for moving the unit by rolling it on its wheels.
CHECKING/ADDING LUBRICANT
See Figure 10.
NOTICE:
Attempting to start the engine before it has been properly
filled with lubricant will result in equipment failure.
NOTE: If a separate engine manual is provided for this
product, please follow the instructions provided in the
engine manual instead of the information listed below.
Engine lubricant has a major influence on engine performance
and service life. For general, all-temperature use, SAE
10W-30 is recommended. Always use a 4-stroke motor
lubricant that meets or exceeds the requirements for API
service classification SJ.
This engine comes with a feature that will shut off the engine
when a specific lubricant level is not maintained. The engine
will not restart until an appropriate lubricant level is reached.
NOTE: Non-detergent or 2-stroke engine lubricants will
damage the engine and should not be used.
 Unscrew the oil cap/dipstick and remove.
 Wipe dipstick clean and re-seat in hole; do not re-thread.
 Remove dipstick again and check lubricant level. Lubricant
level should fall between the hatched areas on the dipstick.
 If level is low, add engine lubricant until the fluid level rises
to the upper portion of the dipstick.
 Replace and secure the oil cap/dipstick.
USING FUEL STABILIZER
Fuel gets old, oxidizes, and breaks down over time. Adding
a fuel stabilizer (not included) extends the usable life of fuel
and helps prevent deposits from forming that can clog the
fuel system. Follow fuel stabilizer manufacturer's directions
for correct ratio of stabilizer to fuel.
 Mix fuel stabilizer and gasoline prior to filling the tank
by using a gas can or other approved fuel container and
shaking gently to combine.
NOTE: To control the amount of fuel stabilizer being added
to the engine, always mix fuel stabilizer with gasoline
before fueling the tank rather than adding fuel stabilizer
directly into the generator's fuel tank.
 Replace and secure the fuel tank cap.
 Start and run the engine for at least 5 minutes to allow
stabilizer to treat the entire fuel system.
