NOTICE
Synthetic oil may be used after the 5 hour initial break-in
period. Using synthetic oil does not increase the
recommended oil change interval. Full synthetic 5W-30
oil will aid in starting in cold ambient < 41º F (5º C)
temperatures.
Add Fuel
Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum
octane rating of 85 and an ethanol content of 10% or less by
volume. ybc
DO NOT mix oil with gasoline.
1. Remove the gasoline cap.
2. Slowly add gasoline to the tank. Tank is full when gasoline
reaches red circle on screen. DO NOT OVERFILL. Gasoline
can expand after filling. A minimum of ¼ in. (6.4 mm) of
space left in the tank is required for gasoline expansion,
although more than ¼ in. (6.4 mm) is recommended.
Gasoline can be forced out of the tank as a result of
expansion if overfilled, and can affect the stable running
condition of the generator.
3. Screw on the gasoline cap and wipe away any spilled fuel.
! CAUTION
Use unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 85
and an ethanol content of 10% or less by volume.
DO NOT light cigarettes or smoke when filling the tank.
DO NOT mix oil and gasoline.
DO NOT overfill the tank. Fill tank to approximately ¼ in.
(6.4 mm) below the top of the tank to allow for gasoline
expansion.
DO NOT pump gasoline directly into the generator at the
pump. Use an approved container to transfer the gasoline to
the generator.
DO NOT fill tank indoors.
DO NOT fill tank when the engine is running or hot.
! WARNING
Pouring gasoline too fast through the fuel screen may result
in gasoline splashing over the generator and operator while
filling.

NOTICE
The generator engine works well with 10% or less ethanol
blend gasoline. When using ethanol-gasoline blends there
are some issues worth noting:
– Ethanol-gasoline blends can absorb more water than
gasoline alone.
– These blends can eventually separate, leaving water or
a watery goo in the tank, fuel valve and carburetor. The
compromised gasoline can be drawn into the carburetor
and cause damage to the engine and/or potential
hazards.
– If a fuel stabilizer is used, confirm that it is formulated to
work with ethanol-gasoline blends.
– Any damages or hazards caused by using improper
gasoline, improperly stored gasoline, and/or
improperly formulated stabilizers, are not covered by
manufacturer’s warranty.
It is advisable to always shut off the gasoline supply and
run the engine to starvation after each use. See Storage
instructions for extended non-use.
