GA-4.5R/GA-4.5RA — CONTROLS AND INDICATORS

Figure 2E. Generator Controls and Components (continued)

12. Choke Lever – Used for starting the engine. Close the choke lever when starting a cold engine or in cold weather conditions.The choke enriches the fuel mixture. Open the choke lever if starting a warm engine or in warm weather conditions.

13. Fuel Cock Lever – Turn this lever downward to start (down)the flow of fuel to the carburetor. Turn upward to stop (up) the flow of fuel.

14. Throttle Lever – Used to adjust engine RPM speed.This unit is set at the factory and is not adjustable.

15. Engine – This generator uses a 9.0 HP ROBIN air- cooled, 4-stroke , single cylinder, overhead camshaft gasoline engine. Engine uses unleaded fuel.

16. Recoil Starter (Pull Rope) – Used for manual-starting of the engine. Pull the starter grip until resistance is felt, then pull briskly and smoothly.

17. Air Cleaner – Prevents dirt and other debris from entering the fuel system. Remove wing-nut on top of air filter cannister to gain access to filter element. NEVER run the engine without an air cleaner.

18. Muffler/Heat Shield – Used to reduce noise and emissions. NEVER touch this heat shield when the generator is in use. Always allow time for the generator to cool down before performing maintenance.

19. Oil Dipstick/ Filler Cap– Remove the filler cap dipstick when checking the engine oil level. Add engine oil through this filler port. See Table 4 for recommended type engine oil.

20. Oil Drain Plug – Remove this plug to drain engine oil from the crankcase.

21. Carburetor Fuel Cup – Inspect the fuel cup weekly for water and dirt. Clean as referenced in the maintenance section of this manual.

22. Spark Plug – Provides spark to the ignition system. Set spark plug gap to 0.6 - 0.7 mm (0.024 - 0.028 inch). Clean spark plug once a week

23. Generator Housing – Contains the rotor, rectifer field coil assembly, aramature, bearings and other components that make up generator asembly.

24. Fuel Gauge – Read this gauge to determine when fuel is low.

25. Fuel Gauge/Tank – Remove this cap to add unleaded gasoline to the fuel tank. Replenish with clean unleaded gasoline. Make sure cap is tightened securely. DO NOT over fill. Fuel tank capacity is 5 gallons (19 liters).
