￿The fuel level in the external fuel tank should be 0 to 3m higher than the bottom of the generator.

￿To avoid any leaks from the external fuel intake and an external fuel return ports, always turn the lever for

3-way valve to A position.

￿Use extreme caution when connecting the hoses. If the lever position is not set properly, the fuel may leak from either the built-in fuel tank or an external fuel tank.
