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 manual for oil fill information.

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

NOTE: Check oil often during engine break–in. Refer to engine owner’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.

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

•DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke.

1.Use clean, fresh, regular UNLEADED fuel with a minimum of 85 octane with equipment. DO NOT use fuel which contains Methanol. DO NOT mix oil with fuel.

2.Clean area around fuel fill cap, remove cap.

BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE

Add Engine Oil

•Place generator on a level surface.

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