TOOLS NEEDED
See Figure 4.
The following tools (not included or drawn to scale) are
needed for assembly:
Socket Wrenches and/or Combination Wrenches

installing the feet, frame support, wheels and handle.
INSTALLING THE FEET
See Figure 5.
Locate the following items:
Right foot bracket
Left foot bracket
4 lock nuts
4 bolts
Insert bolts through the right foot bracket and holes in
the generator frame as shown.
Thread lock nuts onto bolts and tighten one full turn past
snug.
NOTE: Be careful not to overtighten so that foot mate-
rial collapses.
Repeat with the left foot.
INSTALLING THE WHEELS
See Figure 6.
Wheels are provided to assist in moving the generator to
the desired location and should be installed on the same
side as the handle.
Locate the following items:
2 axles
2 hitch pins
2 washers
2 wheels
Raise the end of the generator where the handle is located
high enough to gain access to the frame bottom; securely
position props underneath to support.
Slide the axle through the hole in the center of the wheel.
Slide a washer onto the axle, then slide the axle into the
wheel mounting hole as shown.

ASSEMBLY
CONNECTING/DISCONNECTING BATTERY
See Figure 7.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electrocution or explosion, do not
short circuit the battery terminals or charge in a sealed
container. Keep sparks and flame away.
WARNING:
Keep metal objects away from the battery terminals.
Metal objects can make a connection from one terminal
to another. Shorting the battery terminals together can
cause sparks, burns, or a fire.
NOTICE:
The battery may require charging before the generator
can be started using either the engine switch or the recoil
starter. Once the generator is started, the battery will
charge as the unit runs.
The battery cables must be connected before the generator
can be operated.
To connect battery cables:
Connect the red wires to the positive (+) terminal first,
then connect the black wire to the negative (-) terminal.
Make sure all connections are tight.
NOTE: Be careful not to short across the terminals when
installing. Shorting the terminals together can cause
sparks, damage to the battery or generator, or even burns
or explosions.
Cover the terminals with the rubber covers.
When removing the battery for replacement: disconnect
the negative (black) post, then the positive (red) post, being
careful not to short across the terminals. Always abide by the
safety warnings provided with the battery. Remove the battery
and dispose of according to local and state regulations.
