Generator Setup and Cable Connections

1.Place the Generator outdoors where it will be used.

This should be on a flat surface and away from flammable materials. Do not allow the Generator to get wet. If used indoors, the area must be well ventilated to allow dissipation of exhaust fumes.

2.Fill the Gas Tank (outdoors) with up to seven gallons of unleaded gasoline. Do not top-off tank.

3.Add 40 oz. of oil to the Engine by removing either Dip Stick, and adding through its hole.

If the area temperature is above freezing, use F-SAE 30 weight oil. If below freezing, use F-SAE 5W-30 weight oil. Use a siphon to avoid spilling the oil. Check the oil level with the Dip Stick. It should be up to the “Full” mark. Carefully screw the plastic Dip Stick back into the metal Engine crankcase to avoid stripping the plastic threads on the Dip Stick.

4.Plug in the extension cords or appliances, making sure that the appliance (loads) are turned off.

Refer to the section on Extension Cords on page 9. Do not overload the Generator. Calculate the total wattage of the appliances. The Generator has a maximum power output of 6,600 watts (total from all outlets being used).

Warning: If the Generator will be used to replace facility power in times of outages, the facility power input must be isolated. Refer to the Electric Generator Safety Precautions on page 6. These connections must only be made by a licensed electrician.
