BEFORE START UP

This generator has been shipped from the factory without oil in the crankcase. Operating the unit without oil can damage the engine.

Always check engine oil level before every start. Running engine low of oil or out of oil could result in serious damage to the engine.

Follow the steps listed below before starting generator:

1.Check engine oil. Refer to the Engine Operator's Manual for correct grade and quantity of oil.

2. Check fuel level, fill as required. Make sure generator is turned off and has been allowed time to cool down. Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum of 87 octane. Do not mix oil with gasoline.

Never fill fuel tank completely. Fill tank to 1/2" below the bottom of the filler neck to

provide space for fuel expansion. Wipe any fuel spillage from engine and equipment before starting engine.

Never fill fuel tank indoors. Never fill fuel tank when engine is running or hot. Do not smoke when filling fuel tank.

Never run engine indoors or in enclosed, poor ventilated areas, en- gine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an odorless and deadly

gas.

3.Make sure generator is grounded in accordance with local requirements.

4.All electrical loads MUST be disconnected.

5.The idle control switch MUST be in the OFF position.

Engine speed has been factory set to provide safe operation. Tampering with the engine speed adjustment could result in over-

heating of attachments and could cause a fire. Never attempt to “speed-up” the en- gine to obtain more performance. Both the output voltage and frequency will be thrown out of standard by this practice, endangering attachments and the user.

You MUST unplug any load from the generator before starting to prevent permanent damage to any appliances.
