ASSEMBLY

BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE

Add Engine Oil

• Place generator on a level surface.

CAUTION

Any attempt to crank or start the engine before it has been properly filled with the recommended oil will result in equipment failure.

•Refer to engine operator’s manual for oil fill information.

•Damage to equipment resulting from failure to follow this instruction will void warranty.

•Refer to engine operator’s manual and follow oil recommendations and instructions.

NOTE: Check oil often during engine break–in. Refer to engine operator’s manual for recommendations.

NOTE: The generator assembly rotates on a prelubricated and sealed ball bearing that requires no additional lubrication for the life of the bearing.

Add Fuel

NOTE: This gasoline engine is certified to operate on

gasoline. Exhaust Emission Control System: EM (Engine Modifications).

WARNING

Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive.

Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.

WHEN ADDING FUEL

•Turn generator OFF and let it cool at least 2 minutes before removing fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve pressure in tank.

•Fill fuel tank outdoors.

•DO NOT overfill tank. Allow space for fuel expansion.

•Wait for spilled fuel to evaporate before starting engine.

•Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and other ignition sources.

•DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke.
