Fuel carefully to avoid spilling fuel. Do not fill the fuel tank above the
upper level mark (red) on the fuel strainer.
When fueling an empty fuel tank, fill the tank up to the upper level
mark. The generator will not start if there is not enough fuel in the
tank.
Move the generator at least10 f eet(3 meters) away from the fueling
source and site before starting the engine.
After initial fueling (or anytime the generator is run completely out of
fuel), starting the engine may require additional pulls of the starter
grip. This generator utilizes a vacuum operated fuel pump and may
require additional pulls to draw fuel into the carburetor.
After refueling, tighten the fuel tank cap securely (for Non-California
types) or until it clicks (for California types). Keep the fuel tank cap
vent lever OFF for storage ortransport, and ON to run the generator.
Fuel can damage paint and plastic. Be careful not to spill fuel whenfilling your fuel tank. Damage caused by spilled fuel is not coveredunder warranty.2.
