OPERATION
STARTING THE GENERATOR
See Figures 11 - 12.
l Place the generator in a safe, appropriate location.
l Unplug all loads.
l Make sure the ECO mode switch is in the OFF position.
l Check oil and fuel levels. If needed, add fuel or oil as
described earlier.
l Place the engine/fuel control switch in the on ( I )position.
l Firmly grasp and slowly pull the recoil handle until you feel
increased resistance. At this point, rapidly pull the recoil
handle away from the generator until the engine starts.
NOTE: Gently return the recoil handle into place after
starting the unit. Do not let it snap back against the unit.
During initial starting, additional pulls may be required to
prime the fuel pump.
l When the OUTPUT READY LED illuminates, you can
safely connect loads to the control panel receptacles.
NOTE: Verify that all devices are turned off before con-
necting them to the generator.
NOTE: Make sure that the wattage requirements for
all connected devices are in line with your generator's
capabilities.
l Connect and start the largest device or appliance.
l Allow the generator output to stabilize. Once stable, the
engine should run smoothly, and the device should function
properly.
l Connect and start the next largest device or appliance.
l Allow the generator output to stabilize.
l Repeat this process for each additional load.
STOPPING THE GENERATOR
See Figures 12 - 13.
l Remove any connected loads from the control panel
receptacles.
l Allow the generator to run at "no load" to reduce and
stabilize engine and alternator temperatures.
l Turn the engine/fuel control switch to the off ( O )position
To stop the unit quickly in an emergency:
l Turn the engine/fuel control switch to the off ( O ) position
LOW OIL INDICATOR
See Figure 13.
The LOW OIL LED on the control panel will illuminate when
the unit is low or out of oil. The generator will not start when
the indicator is lit. To resume normal operation, add engine
oil as described earlier in this section. Do not attempt to
crank or start engine before it has been properly ser-
viced with recommended oil.
