•
Select a site that is well ventilated and protected from the
weather.
•
Place the generator set safely away from people and
animals.

HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION
HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION
At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture
will be too rich. Performance will decrease and fuel
consumption will increase. A very rich mixture will also foul
the spark plug and cause hard starting. Operation at an
altitude that differs from that at which this engine was
certified, for extended periods of time, may increase
emissions.
High altitude performance can be improved by specific
modifications to the carburetor. If you always operate your
engine at altitudes above 914 meters (3,000 feet), have your
authorized service center perform a carburetor modification.
HIGH ALTITUDE KIT PART NUMBER: 0070987
Even with a carburetor modification, engine horsepower
will decrease about 3.5% for each 300 meter (1,000 foot)
increase in altitude. The effect of altitude on horsepower will
be greater if no carburetor modification is made. A decrease
in engine horsepower will decrease the power output of the
generator.
When the carburetor has been modified for high
altitude operation, the air-fuel mixture will be too lean
for low altitude use. If the generator is used at low
altitudes after a carburetor modification, the
carburetor may cause the engine to overheat and result
in serious engine damage. For use at low altitudes,
have your authorized service center return the
carburetor to original factory specifications.
NOTICE: Warranty is Void if the necessary adjustments for
high altitude use are not made.

STARTING & STOPPING
PRE-START PREPARATION
Before starting the generator, check for loose or missing
parts and for any damage which may have occurred during
shipment.
This generator must not be operated without all
factory installed heat shields in place. Failure to
comply may cause the fuel tank to overheat and
result in personal injury from fire or explosion.
TANK INSTALLATION
1.
Install the Clamp Tightening
Knob as shown in the
illustration.
2. Make sure the Clamp
tightening knob is turned out
counter clockwise far enough to accept the metal ring on
the bottom of Propane fuel cylinder.
3. Insert the LPG cylinder carefully
into the intended opening in the
top tank shroud. Make sure the
high pressure hose is in the
intended slot location and will
connect to the propane cylinder
valve easily without bending or
kinking.
4.
Tighten the Clamp Knob by turning the knob clockwise
until it fits snugly around the metal ring. The tank should
not lift out or move.
5.
Install the plastic coupling (ACME type 1 nut) on the end
of the high pressure hose onto the propane cylinder valve
connection (similar to many BBQ grills). Screw the nut
onto the tank valve until tight.
6.
To check for leaks, spray soapy water on the valve and
regulator connections. Slowly open the tank valve. A
leak exists if bubbles appear or grow larger in size or
number.
7. If a leak exists, the condition must be corrected
immediately. DO NOT OPERATE UNIT. Contact
an authorized service center for assistance.
