Engine Key To start and stop the engine. Key position: OFF: To stop the engine. ON: To run the engine . START: To start the engine by operating the starter motor Do not turn the key switch to START position when the engine is running to prevent damage of starting motor. Recoil Starter To start the engine, pull the starter grip lightly until resistance is felt, then pull briskly. Do not allow the starter grip to snap back against the engine. Return it gently to prevent damage to the starter.
WATTAGE REFERENCE CHART Electric equipment, especially engines produce strong current when being started. The table below offers references when you connect those installations to generator.

system should not take the place of checking the oil level before each use. If the engine stops and will not restart, check the engine oil level before troubleshooting in other areas. AC Circuit Breaker The AC circuit breaker will automatically switch OFF if there is a short circuit or a significant overload of the generator at the receptacle.
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive, and you can be burned or seriously injured when refueling. ● Stop engine and keep heat, sparks, and flame away. ● Refuel only outdoors. ● Wipe up spills immediately. Use unleaded gasoline with a pump octane rating of 86 or higher. This engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline. Unleaded gasoline produces fewer engine and spark plug deposits and extends exhaust system life. Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/gasoline mixture.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Connections to a Building Electrical System Connections for standby power to a building electrical system must be made by a qualified electrician. The connection must isolate the generator power from utility power, and must comply with all applicable laws and electrical codes. A transfer switch, which isolates generator power from utility power, is prerequisite.
modifications to the carburetor. If you always operate your generator at altitudes above 5,000 feet (1,500 meters), have your dealer perform this carburetor modification. This engine, when operated at high altitude with the carburetor modifications for high altitude use, will meet each emission standard throughout its useful life. Even with carburetor modification, engine horsepower will decrease about 3.5% for each 1,000-foot (300-meter) increase in altitude.
Before REGULAR SERVICE PERIOD 2 each ITEM Performed at every indicated month or use operating hour interval, whichever comes first. Check ○ ● Engine oil Change Check ○ ● Air cleaner Clean Clean ● Sediment cup Clean-Adjust ● Spark plug Replace Clean ● Spark arrester Check-Adjust ● Idle speed Check-Adjust ● Valve clearance Combustion Clean ● chamber Clean ● Fuel tank and filter Check ● Fuel tube First month or 20 Hrs. Every3 months or 50 Hrs. ○ Every6 months or 100 Hrs.
Never run the generator without the air filter. Rapid engine wear will result. 1 Unsnap the air cleaner cover clips, remove the air cleaner cover, and remove the element. 2 Wash the air cleaner element in a solution of household detergent and warm water, then rinse thoroughly, or wash in nonflammable or high flashpoint solvent. Allow the air cleaner element to dry thoroughly. 3 Soak the air cleaner element in clean engine oil and squeeze out the excess oil.
The gap should be: 0.028 0.031 in (0.70 0.80 mm) 6 Check that the spark plug washer is in good condition, and thread the spark plug in by hand to prevent cross-threading. 7 After the spark plug is seated, tighten with a spark plug wrench to compress the washer. If installing a new spark plug, tighten 1/2 turn after the spark plug seats to compress the washer. If reinstalling a used spark plug, tighten 1/8 1/4 turn after the spark plug seats to compress the washer. The spark plug must be securely tightened.
TROUBLESHOOTING Note: Troubleshooting problems may have similar causes and solutions. PROBLEM The engine will not start No electricity at the AC receptacles POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION Is there fuel in the tank? Refill the fuel tank. Is there enough oil in the engine? Add the recommended oil. Is the spark plug in good condition? Readjust gap and dry the spark plug. Replace it if necessary. Is the fuel reaching the carburetor? Clean the fuel sediment cup.

Intelligence Protect Switch 1. When the load reaches the rated power, indicator light turns green. 2. When the load reaches the maximum power, indicator light runs red, the buzzer alarms. 3. When the load exceeds the maximum power for 1 minute, it automatically switches off the output. 4. Press the switch, the generator set works again. Automatic Generator System A ( GS) After installation, be sure the machine is not overloaded.
