STARTING THE ENGINE
See Figures 4 - 6.
NOTICE:
On a level surface with the engine off, check the lubricant
level before each use of the generator.
NOTE: If location of generator is not level, the unit may not
start or may shut down during operation.
To start generator the first time:
 Add engine lubricant per the Operator's Manual
instructions.
 Place the Easy Start dial to the COLD START (CHOKE)
position.
 Fill the fuel tank per the Operator's Manual instructions.
 Place the auto idle switch in the OFF position.
 Pull the recoil starter until the engine starts.
NOTE: Do not allow the grip to snap back after starting;
return it gently to its original place. Initial starting of the
unit may require additional pulls to prime the fuel pump.
 Allow the engine to run for 15-30 seconds, then move
the Easy Start dial to the RUN/RE-START position.
 For quieter more efficient operation, place the auto idle
switch in the ON position.
To start subsequent times:
 Unplug all loads from the generator.
 Place the auto idle switch in the OFF position.
 Turn the Easy Start dial to the COLD START position.
NOTE: When the Easy Start dial is in the COLD START
(top) position, the fuel will flow from the fuel tank to the
engine. If engine is warm, turn the Easy Start dial to the
RUN/RE-START (middle) position.
 Pull the recoil starter until the engine runs.
NOTE: Do not allow the grip to snap back after starting;
return it gently to its original place. Initial starting of the

WARNING:
While operating and storing, keep at least 3 feet of clear-
ance on all sides of this product, including overhead.
Allow a minimum of 30 minutes of "cool down" time
before storage. Heat created by muffler and exhaust
gases could be hot enough to cause serious burns and/
or ignite combustible objects.
MOVING THE GENERATOR
See Figure 7.
 Place the Easy Start dial in the OFF/STORAGE position. In
the OFF/STORAGE position, the fuel valve will be closed
and prevent any gas flow.
 Allow 30 minutes of "cool down" time before storing the
machine.
 Pull the retractable handle out or carry by the carry handles.
 Facing the front of the generator, grasp the folding handle
firmly with one hand.
 Lift the generator toward you until it balances on the
wheels.
 Turn around and pull the unit along behind you to the
desired location.
 Lower the generator until it sits securely on a flat surface.
HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION
Your engine is configured for operation below 2,000 feet
altitude at the factory. Your engine must be reconfigured for
operation above 2,000 feet altitude. Operating the engine
with the wrong engine configuration at a given altitude may
increase its emissions, decrease fuel efficiency, degrade
performance, and cause irreversible damage. Engines
configured for high altitude operation cannot be operated
in standard altitude conditions. A qualified service center
should ensure that your engine is properly configured for
your location.
