OPERATION
15
• To avoid recoil, pull starter cord slowly until resistance is felt, then pull rapidly.
WARNING!
Pull cord recoils rapidly and pulls arm towards engine faster than you can let go which
could result in injury.
• Always start the engine and let it stabilize before connecting any electronic devices.
• Disconnect all electronic devices before stopping the engine.
WARNING!
Never start or stop engine with electrical devices plugged in to the receptacles. Failure to
do so could damage the generator and / or connected electrical devices.
• All loads MUST be disconnected from the generator. Never start or stop the engine with electrical devices plugged in to
the receptacles.
• Turn the engine START/ON/OFF switch to the “OFF” position.
• Turn the fuel valve to the “OFF” position.
Receptacles and Extension Cords
Only use high quality, well-insulated, grounded extension cords in good condition with generator receptacles. Follow each
load manufacturer’s power rating recommendation when selecting receptacle and extension cord.
