gasoline, and do not use an oil/gas mixture. Do not allow dirt
or water into the fuel tank. Do not use E85 fuel.
STARTING THE ENGINE
See Figures 5 - 8.
NOTICE:
On a level surface with the engine off, check the lubricant
level before each use of the generator.
NOTICE:
Do not place the generator directly on the ground when
using the unit in grassy areas or in areas with dense
vegetation. Doing so could result in grass discoloration
and/or localized soil damage.
NOTE: If location of generator is not level, the unit may not
start or may shut down during operation.
 Unplug all loads from the generator.
 Make sure the on/off switch is in the ON ( I ) position.
NOTE: When the on/off switch is in the ON (I) position
fuel will flow from the fuel tank to the engine.
 Move the choke lever right to the START position.
NOTE: If engine is warm, move the choke lever left to
the RUN position.
 Put the auto idle switch in the OFF (O) position.
 Pull the starter grip and rope until the engine runs.

USING THE BATTERY CHARGING CABLE
ASSEMBLY
See Figure 9.
WARNING:
The 12 V DC receptacle is designed to charge vented
wet lead acid batteries only. Other types of batteries may
burst, causing personal injury and damage.
NOTICE:
The 12 V DC receptacle provides continuous charge. Do
not overcharge battery or leave battery unattended. Doing
so may cause damage to the battery.
NOTICE:
Do not use the generator to jump start vehicles. Doing
so could result in damage to the vehicle or it's electrical
components.
 Place the auto idle switch in the OFF position.
 Using the battery clamps, connect the battery charging
cable assembly to the battery terminal. Connect the
red wire to the positive (+) terminal first, then connect
the black wire to the negative (–) terminal. Make sure all
connections are secure.
NOTE: Be careful not to short across the terminals when
installing. Shorting the terminals together can cause
sparks, damage to the battery or generator, or even burns
or explosions.
NOTE: To prevent short circuit, keep away from a metal
surface during clamp connection.
