BEFORE OPERATION
To prevent a possible fire, keep the generator at least 3 feet (1 meter)
away from building walls and other equipment during operation. Do not
place flammable objects close to the engine.
Before beginning your pre-operation checks, be sure the generator is on
a level surface and the engine switch is in the OFF position.
Check the Engine
Before each use, look around and underneath the engine for signs of
oil or gasoline leaks.
Check the oil level (see page 44). A low oil level will cause the Oil
Alert system to shut down the engine.
Check the air filter (see page 47). A dirty air filter will restrict air flow
to the carburetor, reducing engine and generator performance.
Check the fuel level (see page 42). Starting with a full tank will help
to eliminate or reduce operating interruptions for refueling.
