OPERATION
The fuel source can be switched while the engine is off
or while it is running if a propane tank is connected to the
generator BEFORE operation. If you switch from gasoline
to another fuel source while the engine is running, it may
run rough for a few seconds as it purges gasoline from the
carburetor.
To switch to gasoline:
l Turn the fuel valve to the open position to start the flow
of gasoline.
l Rotate the fuel selector switch fully clockwise for
GASOLINE.
l Turn off the flow of propane gas.
To switch to propane:
l Open the cylinder valve on the LP gas cylinder to start
the flow of propane.
l Rotate the fuel selector switch fully counterclockwise for
PROPANE.
l Turn off the flow of gasoline.
HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION
Engine power is reduced the higher you operate above sea
level. Output will be reduced approximately 3.5% for every
1,000 feet of increased altitude from sea level.
High altitude adjustment is required for operation at altitudes
over 5,000 ft. (1524 m). Operation without this adjustment
will cause decreased performance, increased fuel consump-
tion, and increased emissions.
NOTICE
DO NOT operate the generator at alti-
tudes below 2,000 ft. (762 m) with the high altitude kit
installed. Engine damage may occur.

BREAK-IN PERIOD
For proper break-in, do not exceed 50% of the rated running
watts during the first five hours of operation.
Use supplied oil until first recommend oil change. Do not
use full synthetic oil during break in period. Full synthetic oil
may prevent proper breaking and seating of the piston rings.
Vary the load occasionally to allow stator windings to heat
and cool and help seat the piston rings.
