time being careful not to exceed the generators wattage
rating.
Lubricant:
The oil indicator will light and the engine will automatically
shut off whenever the lubricant level in the engine becomes
low. The engine may not be restarted until sufficient engine
lubricant has been added to the generator.
NOTE: It is normal for the indicator lights to illuminate and/
or blink each time the engine is started. Once the engine
warms up, the lights should default to the pattern above.
CHECKING/ADDING LUBRICANT
See Figures 3 - 4.
NOTICE:
Attempting to start the engine before it has been properly
filled with lubricant will result in equipment failure.
Engine lubricant has a major influence on engine performance
and service life. For general, all-temperature use, SAE 10W-
40 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.
 Loosen the screw on the side cover. Remove side cover
and set aside.
 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 minimum and
maximum marks on the dipstick.
 If level is low, add engine lubricant until the fluid level
rises between the minimum and maximum marks on the
dipstick.
 Replace and secure the oil cap/dipstick.
 Reinstall the side cover. Tighten screw to secure.
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.
OPERATION
 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.
OXYGENATED FUELS
NOTICE:
Do not use E15 or E85 fuel in this product. It is a viola-
tion of federal law and will damage the unit and void
your warranty. Only use unleaded gasoline containing
up to 10% ethanol.
Fuel system damage or performance problems resulting
from the use of an oxygenated fuel containing more than
the percentage of oxygenates previously stated are not
covered under warranty.
CHECKING/ADDING FUEL
See Figure 5.
DANGER:
Risk of fire and serious burns: Never remove fuel cap
when unit is running. Shut off engine and allow the unit
to cool at least five minutes. Remove cap slowly.
WARNING:
Gasoline and its vapors are highly flammable and
explosive. To prevent serious personal injury and property
damage, handle gasoline with care. Keep away from
ignition sources, handle outdoors only, do not smoke
while adding fuel, and wipe up spills immediately.
When adding gas to the generator, make sure the unit is
sitting on a flat, level surface. If the engine is hot, let the
generator cool for five minutes before adding gas. ALWAYS
fill the fuel tank outdoors with the machine turned off.
 Remove the fuel cap slowly.
 Put the on/off switch in the ON ( I ) position.
 Fill the fuel tank to 1 in. below the top of the fuel neck.
 Replace and secure the fuel cap.
WARNING:
Always shut off engine before fueling. Never remove
fuel cap or add fuel to a machine with a running or hot
engine. Make sure the unit is sitting on a flat, level sur-
face and only add fuel outdoors. If the engine is hot, let
the unit cool for at least five minutes before adding fuel.
After fueling, immediately replace fuel cap and tighten
securely. Move at least 30 ft. from refueling site before
starting engine. Do not smoke and stay away from open
flames and sparks! Failure to follow these instructions
could result in a fire and cause serious personal injury.
