Hour Meter (See Fig 17)
Use this meter along with the manual to determine when and what type of service on the unit is needed. The display will
show the word "P25" at the first 25 hours of operation and again at every 100 hours of operation after.
Power Management
Start engine without anything connected to generator.
•
•
When engine has stabilized, plug in and turn on first load. It is strongly recommended to plug in devices with the largest
output first and the smallest output last to help prevent overloading the generator.
•
Allow generator output to stabilize (engine and attached devices run evenly) before plugging in the next load.
Charging a 12 Volt Battery (See Fig 18)
This generator can be used to charge a 12 volt automotive or storage battery by taking the following steps:
•
Inspect fluid level of the battery cells.
•
Add ONLY distilled water to any cell where fluid level is low. Never add tap water.
•
Use a wire brush to clean battery terminals if corroded.
•
Connect the Battery Charging Cable Connection Plug to the 12 Volt D.C. Receptacle.
•
Connect the red cable clamp to the positive (+) battery terminal.
•
Connect the black cable clamp to the negative (-) battery terminal.
•
Start generator engine. Let engine run while battery charges.
•
Battery is considered fully charged when the gravity of its fluid is 1.260 or higher when measured by a hydrometer. It is
strongly recommended to use a hydrometer to test for battery charge and condition. Be careful to follow the hydrometer
manufacturer's instruction.
Cold Weather Operation
Under humid conditions where temperatures drop to 40ºF (4ºC) the carburetor and/or crankcase breather system may
begin to freeze. To prevent cold weather performance issues, take the following steps:
1.
Replace any old fuel with clean, fresh fuel.
2.
Use SAE30 or SAE 5W-30 engine oil. Check oil daily or after every 8 hours of use.
3.
Turn fuel valve to the ON position.
4.
Ensure generator is serviced according to the maintenance schedule under "Maintenance" section of the manual.
5.
Shelter unit from elements.
