Use and Care Manual

If the generator has been unused for a while, and you’re starting it for the first time, turn the engine
switch knob to the ON position for 10-20 seconds before starting, so the gasoline can enter the
engine carburetor.
Do not ever, under any circumstances, use this generator in an indoor, closed environment. The
fumes will cause asphyxiation and death. Always use this generator in a well-ventilated environment.
Follow these steps to start the engine on your generator:
1. Rotate the tank cap switch to the ON position.
NOTE: When you transport the generator, always make sure the fuel tank cap switch is cranked
into the OFF position.
2. Turn the generator engine switch knob to the CHOKE position. In this position, the choke will be
fully closed
NOTE: If the engine is hotter after starting, or the ambient temperature in the area is higher
than normal, you should turn the engine switch knob to the ON position, rather than CHOKE.
