PAIRING THE REMOTE START
Remote replacement batteries: (2) CR2016
Remote replacement: Part# 100714A
If the remote start key fob is replaced or needs re-paired to
the generator, follow this procedure:
1. Turn the generator battery switch to the ON position.
The power indicator light will illuminate.
2. Push and hold the red Pairing button on the back of the
control panel until the START/STOP button illuminates.
3. Push and hold the STOP button on the key fob until the
START/STOP button illumination turns OFF. Release
the button. The START/STOP button will illuminate after
the button is released.
4. Push and hold the START button on the key fob until the
START/STOP button illumination turns OFF. Release
the button. The START/STOP button will illuminate after
the button is released.
5. Push the Pairing button on the side of the control panel
until the START/STOP button illumination turns OFF.
Release the button.
6. Turn the generator battery switch to the OFF position.
The remote is now paired.
OPERATION
BREAK-IN PERIOD
For proper break-in, do not exceed 50% of the rated
running watts (6000 watts) during the first five hours of
operation.
Vary the load occasionally to allow stator windings to heat
and cool and help seat the piston rings.
LOW IDLE
Always start the generator with Low Idle switch OFF.
Allow the engine speed to stabilize before switching Low
Idle ON.
Frequency output of the generator is dependent on
engine speed. DO NOT use Low Idle when powering
sensitive electronics or large surge loads such as an
air conditioner, electric pump, refrigerator, or when
connected to a home transfer switch.
Low Idle minimizes fuel consumption, noise, and engine
wear by lowering the engine RPM to idle (2400 RPM) when
electrical loads have been turned off and automatically
returns to rated speed when loads are turned back on.
Turn Low Idle ON when powering intermittent, non-
electronic loads, such as power tools at a work site.
BEFORE STARTING THE GENERATOR
Verify that:
• The generator is placed in an safe, appropriate location.
• The generator is on a dry, flat, and level surface.
• The engine is filled with oil.
• Gasoline is in the fuel tank.
• All loads are disconnected.
• The LOW IDLE switch is in the OFF position
Fire and explosion hazard. DO NOT move or tip the
generator during operation.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Fire and explosion hazard. DO NOT add gasoline to the
fuel tank while the generator is in operation.
During Push-Button or Remote Start the engine will
automatically set the choke and begin the start sequence.
If the engine fails to start, the generator will attempt to
start the engine two more times. The battery switch can be
turned off at any time during the automatic start sequence
to abort the engine start attempt.
