Recommended Action: When this light appears confirm engine is off, let the unit cool down, then add oil. Make sure to periodically check oil levels while filling to prevent overfilling.
OPERATION BEFORE STARTING THE INVERTER BEFORE STARTING THE INVERTER, REVIEW SAFETY SECTION STARTING ON PAGE 5. Location Selection – Before starting the inverter, avoid exhaust and location hazards by verifying: • You have selected a location to operate the inverter that is outdoors and well ventilated. • You have selected a location with a level and solid surface on which to place the inverter. • You have selected a location that is at least 6 feet (1.
OPERATION POWERCORD Using Extension Cords Westinghouse Portable Power assumes no responsibility for the content within this table. The use of this table is the responsibility of the user only. This table is intended for reference only. The results produced by using this table are not guaranteed to be correct or applicable in all situations as the type and construction of cords are highly variable.
OPERATION INITIAL OIL FILL BEFORE ADDING ENGINE OIL, REVIEW SAFETY SECTION STARTING ON PAGE 5. 3. Using the supplied funnel and oil, pour the entire bottle of oil into the engine (see Figure 3). NOTICE Engine oil must be added when the inverter is on a flat, level surface, or an inaccurate reading may result. Do not overfill. If the engine is overfilled with oil, it can cause serious engine damage. 1.
OPERATION ADDING/CHECKING ENGINE FLUIDS AND FUEL BEFORE ADDING/CHECKING ENGINE FLUIDS AND FUEL, REVIEW SAFETY SECTION STARTING ON PAGE 5. ADDING GASOLINE TO THE FUEL TANK WARNING Never refuel the inverter while the engine is running. DANGER Filling the fuel tank with gasoline while the inverter is running can cause gasoline to leak and come in contact with hot surfaces that can ignite the gasoline.
OPERATION STARTING THE INVERTER BEFORE STARTING THE INVERTER, REVIEW SAFETY SECTION STARTING ON PAGE 5. 3. Turn the engine/fuel control switch to the CHOKE position (see Figure 7). OFF RUN For proper starting and operation of the inverter, make sure you review the inverter features and their descriptions starting on page 8. CHOKE Before attempting to start the inverter, verify the following: • The engine is filled with engine oil (see Figure 4: Engine Oil Correct Level on page 13).
OPERATION STOPPING THE INVERTER Normal Operation During normal operation, use the following steps to stop your inverter: 1. Remove any connected loads from the control panel receptacles. 2. Allow the inverter to run at “no load” to reduce and stabilize engine and alternator temperatures. 3. Move the engine control switch to the OFF position (see Figure 10) .
MAINTENANCE BEFORE PERFORMING MAINTENANCE ON THE INVERTER, REVIEW THE SAFETY SECTION STARTING ON PAGE 5, AS WELL AS THE FOLLOWING SAFETY MESSAGES. WARNING CAUTION Avoid accidentally starting the inverter during maintenance by removing the spark plug boot from the spark plug. For electric start inverters, also disconnect the battery cables from the battery (disconnect the black negative (-) cable first) and place the cables away from the battery posts to avoid arcing.
MAINTENANCE ENGINE OIL MAINTENANCE Engine Oil Specification 1. Only use the engine oil specified in Figure 12. 2. Only use 4-stroke/cycle engine oil. NEVER USE 2-STROKE/CYCLE OIL. Synthetic oil is an acceptable substitute for conventional oil. NOTICE Engine oil must always be checked and added when the inverter is on a flat, level surface, or an inaccurate reading may result, causing serious engine damage. ADDING ENGINE OIL 1. Always operate or maintain the inverter on a flat surface. 2.
MAINTENANCE CHANGING ENGINE OIL 1. Stop the engine. 2. Let engine sit and cool for several minutes (allow crankcase pressure to equalize). 3. Remove the engine service panel to gain access to the oil fill/drain plug. 4. Place oil pan (or suitable container) under the oil fill/ drain plug (see Figure 13). 7. Allow oil to completely drain. 8. Fill crankcase with oil following the steps outlined in Adding Engine Oil on page 18. 9. Dispose of used engine oil properly.
MAINTENANCE 5. Wash the foam air filter element by submerging the element in a solution of household detergent soap and warm water. Slowly squeeze the foam to thoroughly clean. NOTICE Ho in Dr a el t Bo Floa crew in S ra wl D Fu 6. Rinse in clean water by submerging the air filter element in fresh water and applying a slow squeezing action (see Figure 16). se NEVER twist or tear the foam air filter element during cleaning or drying. Only apply slow but firm squeezing action.
MAINTENANCE SPARK PLUG MAINTENANCE The spark plug must be checked and cleaned after every 100 hours of use or 6 months and must be replaced after 300 hours of use or every year. 1. Stop the inverter and let it cool for several minutes if running. 2. Move the inverter to a flat, level surface. 3. Slide the spark plug access cover off the housing (see Figure 19). 7. Place a clean rag over the opening created by the removal of the spark plug to make sure no dirt can get into the combustion chamber. 8.
MAINTENANCE CLEANING THE SPARK ARRESTOR Check and clean the spark arrestor after every 100 hours of use or 6 months. CHECKING AND ADJUSTING VALVE LASH CAUTION 1. Stop the inverter and let it cool for several minutes if running. 2. Move the inverter to a flat, level surface. 3. Remove the screws holding the muffler cover in place (see Figure 21). Checking and adjusting valve lash must be done when the engine is cold. 1. Remove the rocker arm cover and carefully remove the gasket.
MAINTENANCE CLEANING THE INVERTER It is important to inspect and clean the inverter before every use. Clean All Engine Air Inlet and Outlet Ports – Make sure all engine air inlet and outlet ports are clean of any dirt and debris to ensure the engine does not run hot.
TROUBLESHOOTING WARNING Before attempting to service or troubleshoot the generator, the owner or service technician must first read the owner’s manual and understand and follow all safety instructions. Failure to follow all instructions may result in conditions that can lead to voiding of the EPA certification or product warranty, serious personal injury, property damage or even death.
