If the engine stops or the Oil Alert indicator(red) comes on when you
pull the starter grip,check the engine oil level (see page ) before

the crankcase can fall below a safe limit, the Oil Alertindicator (red)
comes on and the Oil Alert system automatically will stop the engine
(the engine switch will remain in the ON position).

short circuit in a connected appliance, the overload indicator (red) will
come on. If the overload indicator (red)stays on continuously f ormore
than 4 seconds, current to the connected appliance(s) will shutof f, and
the output indicator (green)will go off. However, the engine will
continue to run.
