1.Read safety instructions at the beginning of manual.

2.Clean the generator, removing dirt and dust, particularly the engine cooling air inlet, carburetor and air cleaner.

3.Check the air filter for dirt and dust. If air filter is dirty, replace air filter with a new one as required.

4.Check carburetor for external dirt and dust. Clean with dry compressed air.

5.Check fastening nuts and bolts for tightness.

Battery Setup (GA6HBE)

CAUTION

Use all safety precautions specified by the battery manufacturer when working with the battery. See Safety Information section of this manual for more details on battery safety.

1.Place the battery into the battery cradle and secured with mounting hardware.

2.Connect the positive cable to the positive terminal on the battery first, then connect the negative cable to the negative terminal.

Engine Oil Check

1.To check the engine oil level, place the generator on secure level ground with the engine stopped.

2.Remove the filler dipstick from the engine oil filler hole (Figure 9) and wipe clean.

Figure 9. Engine Oil Dipstick Removal

3.Insert and remove the dipstick without screwing it into the filler neck. Check the oil level shown on the dipstick.

4.If the oil level is low (Figure 10), fill to the edge of the oil filler hole with the recommended oil type (Figure 10). Maximum oil capacity is 1.16 quarts (1.1 liters).
