IMPORTANT:
Do not fill tank indoors.
Do not fill tank when the engine is running or hot.
Never use an oil/gasoline mixture.
Never use old gasoline.
Avoid getting dirt or water into the fuel tank.
Gasoline can age in the tank and make starting difficult. Never store generator for extended periods
of time with fuel in the tank or the carburetor.
Turn the fuel cock off and drain the fuel from the carburetor.
CAUTION:
Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts, such as the
carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Also, experience indicates that
alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture, which leads to
separation and formation of acids during storage.
Acidic fuel can damage the fuel system of the generating set while in storage. Be sure to review the
instruction given in “Storage section.
Gasoline/ Alcohol Blends: up to 10% alcohol, 90% unleaded gasoline by volume is approved as a
fuel. Other gasoline/alcohol blends are not approved.
Effects of old, stale or contaminated fuel are not warrantable.
Allow the generating set to cool for at least two minutes before removing fuel cap when adding fuel.
Loose the fuel cap slowly to relieve any pressure in the tank.
5. Generating set grounding
DANGER: Failure to properly ground the generator can result in electrocution.
The generator must be properly connected to an appropriate ground. It helps prevent electrical shock if a
ground fault condition exists in the generating set or in connected electrical devices, especially when the
unit is equipped with a wheel kit. Proper grounding also helps dissipate static electricity, which often
builds up in ungrounded devices.
A ground terminal has been provided on the generating set. For remote grounding, connect of a length of
heavy gauge(4mm2) copper wire between the generating set ground terminal and a copper rod driven into
the ground.
Local electrical codes may also require proper grounding of the unit. We strongly recommend that you
consult with a qualified electrician for grounding requirements in your area.
ELECTRICAL DEVICES
Disconnect all electrical devices from the generator and switch off the AC circuit breaker before start the
engine.
The generator may be hard to start with electrical devices.
The connected electrical equipment must not exceed the maximum limit of the generator. Please refer to
the specification table for details.
NOTE: After completing the above preparation, the generator is ready to be started.
