OPERATION

CAUTION

Exceeding generator’s wattage/amperage capacity can damage generator and/or electrical devices connected to it.

•See “Don’t Overload Generator”.

•Start generator and let engine stabilize before connecting electrical loads.

•Connect electrical loads in OFF position, then turn ON for operation.

•Turn electrical loads OFF and disconnect from generator before stopping generator.

Stopping the Engine

1.Turn off and unplug all electrical loads from generator panel receptacles. NEVER start or stop engine with electrical devices plugged in and turned on.

2.Put idle control switch in “Off” position.

3.Let engine run at no–load for 30 seconds to stabilize internal temperatures of engine and generator.

4.Move Ignition switch to “Off” (o) position.

5.Close the fuel shut–off valve.

Operating Automatic Idle Control

This feature is designed to greatly improve fuel economy. When this switch is turned ON, the engine will only run at its normal high governed engine speed when electrical loads are connected.When electrical loads are removed, the engine will run at a reduced speed.

With the switch off, the engine will run at the normal high

engine speed. Always have the switch off when starting and stopping the engine.

DANGER

Storage batteries give off explosive hydrogen gas during recharging.

Hydrogen gas stays near battery for a long time after battery has been charged.

Slightest spark will ignite hydrogen and cause explosion.

You can be blinded or severely injured.

Battery electrolyte fluid contains acid and is extremely caustic.

Contact with battery fluid will cause severe chemical burns.

•DO NOT allow any open flame, spark, heat, or lit cigarette during and for several minutes after charging a battery.

•Wear protective goggles, rubber apron, and rubber gloves.

To recharge 12 Volt batteries, proceed as follows:

1.Check fluid level in all battery cells. If necessary, add ONLY distilled water to cover separators in battery cells. DO NOT use tap water.

2.If battery is equipped with vent caps, make sure they are installed and are tight.

3.If necessary, clean battery terminals.

4.Connect battery charge cable connector plug to panel receptacle identified by the words “12-VOLTS D.C.”

5.Connect battery charge cable clamp with red handle to the positive (+) battery terminal (Figure 8).

Figure 8 — Battery Connections

Charging a Battery

Your generator has the capability of recharging a discharged 12 Volt automotive or utility style storage battery.

• DO NOT use the unit to charge any 6 Volt batteries.

• DO NOT use the unit to crank an engine having a discharged battery.

6. Connect battery charge cable clamp with black handle to the negative (–)battery terminal (Figure 8).

7. Start engine. Let engine run while battery recharges.

8. When battery has charged, shut down engine
