8000 Watt* Generator
Verify Engine Oil Level and Add Fuel
NOTICE Be sure you have attached wheels and support leg prior to this
step.
NOTICE Before starting the engine, check oil level and ensure that
engine is serviced as described in the Operator's Manual.
NOTICE DO NOT use unapproved fuel such as E85.
NOTICE DO NOT mix oil in fuel.
NOTICE DO NOT modify engine to run on alternate fuels.
1. Move generator outdoors to a flat, level surface.
2. The generator engine is shipped from the factory filled with oil.
Before starting the engine, remove oil fill cap (E) and check oil level.
3. Replace and fully tighten oil fill cap.
4. Clean area around fuel fill cap (F), remove cap.
5. Slowly add unleaded fuel (G) to fuel tank (H). Be careful not to
overfill. Allow abouat 1.5 (4 cm) of tank space (J) for fuel expansion
as shown.
6. Replace fuel cap, and let any spilled fuel evaporate before starting
engine
Move Generator to
Safe Operating Location
1. Move generator outdoors to a flat, level surface, in an area that will
not accumulate deadly exhaust gas. DO NOT place generator where
exhaust gas could accumulate and enter inside or be drawn into a
potentially occupied building. Ensure exhaust gas is kept away from
any windows, doors, ventilation intakes, or other openings that can
allow exhaust gas to collect in a confined area. Prevailing winds and
air currents should be taken into consideration when positioning
generator.
2. To reduce the risk of exhaust heat or exhaust gases igniting nearby
combustible material, keep at least 5 feet (1.5 m) clearance on all
sides of generator, including overhead.
Start Generator
NOTICE Always unplug the battery float charger (h) before starting the
generator.
1. Make sure unit is on a level surface. Disconnect all electrical loads
from the generator.
2. Turn the fuel valve (K) to the "On" position.
3. Push choke lever (L) to "Choke" position.
4. Push engine rocker switch (M) to "On".
