GA-2.5H — INITIAL START-UP ENGINE/OPERATION

6.If the engine has started, slowly return the choke lever (Figure 11 ) to the “OPEN” position. If the engine has not started repeat steps 1 through 5.

7.Before the generator is placed into operation, run the engine for 3-5 minutes. Check for abnormal smells, fuel leaks, and noises that would associate with lose compo- nents.

8.Refer to the AC voltmeter (Figure 14) on the control panel.The voltage indicated on the voltmeter should be 120 VAC with no load applied.

1.Connect the load to the output receptacles.

2.Place the main circuit breaker (Figure 16) in the ON position.

Stopping The Engine

Normal Shutdown

1.Place the main circuit breaker (Figure 9) in the OFF position.

2.Remove the load from the generator, and let the engine run at idle for 3-5 minutes with the idle control switch in the ON position (Up)

3.Place the engine ON/OFF switch (Figure 17) in the "OFF" position.
