starting battery's POSITIVE battery terminal
5. Connect the BLACK jumper cabHe champ to the
starting battery's NEGATIVE battery terminal
6. Connect the other BLACK jumper cabHe champ to the

in Figure 7.
7. Start the generator as described in "Starting the
Engine" and remove jumper cabHes in reverse order of
connections.
8. SHide the red rubber boot bacH<onto the generator's
POSITIVE battery terminal
If you have any questions, pHease caHHthe Generator
Heipiine at [ =888=6 [ [ =6708, M=P 8=5 CT.
IMPORTANT:When jump starting, always wear proper eye
protection and never Hean over battery. Inspect both
batteries before connecting booster cabHes. DO NOT iump
start a damaged battery. Be sure vent caps are tight and HeveL
Connecting Electrical Loads
° Let engine stabiHize and warm up for a few minutes after
starting.
° PHug in and turn on the desired H20 and/or 240VoHtAC,
singHe phase, 60 Hz eHectricaH Hoads.
° DO NOT connect 240VoHt Hoads to the H20VoHt dupHex
receptacles.
° DO NOT connect 3-phase Hoads to the generator.
° DO NOT connect S0 Hz Hoads to the generator.
* DO NOT OVERLOAD GENERATOP_.See "Don't
OverHoad Generator".
the Engine
H. Turn OFF and unpHug atomeHectricaH Hoads from
generator paneH receptacHes. NEVER start or stop engine
with eHectricaH devices plugged in and turned ON.
2. Let engine run at no-Hoad for severaH minutes to
stabiHize internaH temperatures of engine and generator.
3. Turn start switch to "Stop" position.
Charging a Battery
Your generator has the capabi[i W of recharging a discharged
i2Voit automotive or utility style storage battery. DO
NOT use the unit to charge any 6VoHt batteries. DO NOT
use the unit to crank an engine having a discharged battery.
DANGER
DO NOT allow any open flame, spark, heat, or lit cigarette
during and for severaJ minutes after charging a batteD;
Wear protective goggles, rubber aprom and rubber gJoves_
To recharge 12 Volt batteries, proceed as follows. •
I. Check fluid level in all battery cells. If necessary, add
ONLY distiHHedwater to cover separators in battery
ceils. DO NOT use tap water.
2. If battery is equipped with vent caps, make sure they
are instaHHed and are tight.
3. If necessary, dean battery terminaHs.
4. Connect battery charge cabHe connector pHug to paneH
receptacle identified by the words "H 2-VOLTS D.C.".
5. Connect battery charge cabHe champ with red handHe
to the positive (+) battery terminaH (Figure 8).

6. Connect battery charge cabHe champ with bmack handHe
to the negative (-) battery terminal (Figure 8).
7. Start engine. Let engine run whiHe battery recharges.
8. When battery has charged_ shut down engine
NOTE: Use an automotive hydrometer to test battery state
of charge and condition. Follow the hydrometer
manufacturer's instructions carefully. Generally, a battery is
considered to be at H00% state of charge when specific gravity
of its fluid (as measured by hydrometer) is H.260 or higher.
