201157 - 3650W DUAL FUEL ELECTRIC START GENERATOR
OPERATION
27
Propane
4. If operating on LPG, close valve on LPG cylinder.
Moving the Generator
CAUTION
– NEVER lift or carry the generator using the folding handle.
– NEVER tilt sideways while moving the generator.
– ALWAYS place the generator on its wheels in the upright
position.
– ALWAYS turn the generator off and ensure the fuel valve is
closed.
– ALWAYS make sure engine and muffler are cooled down
before the generator can be handled safely (typically 15-30
minutes).
WARNING
The folding handle is not long enough to hold and walk with a
full stride when moving the generator. Always side step as you
walk to avoid injury to your heels and/or feet. Failure to follow
these instructions could result in personal injury or damage to
the generator.
1. Begin by raising the folding handle, found on opposite side of
wheels.
2. Using the handle, tilt the end of the generator slightly off the
ground until balanced on the wheels.
3. While maintaining balance, roll the generator to the desired
location.
Operation at High Altitude
The density of air at high altitudes is lower than at sea level.
Engine power is reduced as the air mass and air-fuel ratio
decrease. Engine power and generator output will be reduced
approximately 3½% for every 1000 ft. of elevation above sea level.
At high altitudes increased exhaust emissions can also result due
to the increased enrichment of the air fuel ratio. Other high altitude
issues can include hard starting, increased fuel consumption and
spark plug fouling.
To alleviate high altitude issues other than the natural power
loss, CPE can provide a high altitude carburetor main jet. The
alternative main jet and installation instructions can be obtained
by contacting our Technical Support Team. Installation instructions
are also available in the Technical Bulletin area of the CPE website.
The part number and recommended minimum altitude for the
application of the high altitude carburetor main jet is listed in the
following table.
In order to select the correct high altitude main jet it is necessary
to identify the carburetor model. For this purpose, a code is
stamped on the side of the carburetor. Select the correct high
altitude jet part number corresponding to the carburetor code
found on your particular carburetor.
Carb. Code High Alt. Jet Part Number Min. Altitude
100718260
-0001
100005767 Standard
100005754
3280.8 - 9842.5 ft.
(1000 - 3000m)
WARNING
Operation using the alternative main jet at elevations lower
than the recommended minimum altitude can damage the
engine. For operation at lower elevations, the originally
supplied standard main jet must be used. Operating the
engine with the wrong engine configuration at a given altitude
may increase its emissions and decrease fuel efficiency and
performance.
