GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
POISONOUS GAS HAZARD
DANGER
Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES. Generator exhaust
contains carbon monoxide. This is a poison you cannot see or smell.
NEVER use inside a home or garage,
EVEN IF doors and windows are open.
Avoid other generator hazards. READ MANUAL BEFORE USE.
Only use OUTSIDE and far away
from windows, doors and vents.
The exhaust system must be properly
maintained. Do not alter or modify the
exhaust system as to render it unsafe or
make it noncompliant with local codes
and/or standards. Failure to do so will
result in death or serious injury.
DANGER
Always, install battery operated carbon
monoxide alarm indoors and installed
according to the manufacturer’s
instruction.
• Operate this product ONLY outside and at least
20 feet away from windows, doors and vents to
reduce the risk of carbon monoxide gas from
accumulating and potentially being drawn towards
occupied spaces.
DO NOT run this product inside homes, garages,
basements, crawl spaces, sheds, or other
partially-enclosed spaces even if using fans or
opening doors and windows for ventilation. Carbon
monoxide can quickly build up in these spaces and
can linger for hours, even after this product has
shut off.
• ALWAYS place this product downwind and point
the engine exhaust away from occupied spaces. If
you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using
this product, shut it off and get to fresh air RIGHT
AWAY. See a doctor. You may have carbon
monoxide poisoning.
WARNING
If you start to feel sick, dizzy or weak while using
the portable generator, you may have carbon
monoxide poisoning. Get out side to fresh air
immediately and call 911 for emergency medical
attention. Very high levels of CO can rapidly cause
victims to lose consciousness before they can
rescue themselves. DO NOT attempt to shut off the
generator before moving to fresh air. Entering an
enclosed space where a generator is or has been
running may put you at greater risk of CO
poisoning.

2-Blinking Yellow Light provides notification that a CO WATCH-GUARD fault has occurred and no longer
provides protection. The generator is shutoff automatically and the yellow light will blink for at least five minutes
after shutoff. Call A-iPower Customer Service 855-888-3598 for repair. Do not use the generator until the
sensor is working properly. The CO WATCH-GUARD must only be serviced by qualified technician to restore it
to original settings.
Page 15
DO NOT modify or tamper with the Carbon Monoxide Detecting System (CO WATCH-GUARD). Not following
these instructions could result in death or serious injury due to Carbon Monoxide detecting system malfunction.
CO WATCH-GUARD will detect the accumulation of carbon monoxide from other fuel burning sources such as
engine powered tools used in the area of operation. If another generator is used and the exhaust is pointed at a
CO WATCH-GUARD equipped generator, the CO WATCH-GUARD may initiate a shutoff due to rising carbon
monoxide levels. This is not a fault. Hazardous carbon monoxide has been detected. You must take action to
move and direct the equipment to better dissipate carbon monoxide far away from people or buildings.
CO WATCH-GUARD only monitors when the generator is running.
CO WATCH-GUARD DOES NOT replace carbon monoxide alarms.
Tempering with the CO WATCH-GUARD will void your warranty.
WARNING
Tampering with CO WATCH-GUARD could result in a hazardous condition. Removing the CO WATCH-GUARD
module will not allow the generator to start.

OPERATION
Generator Location
Surge Protection
Starting the Generator
Make sure you review each warning in order to
prevent fire hazard.
• Keep area clear of inflammables or other
hazardous materials.
• Select a site that is dry, well ventilated and
protected from the weather.
• Keep exhaust pipe clear of foreign objects.
• Keep generator away from open flame.
• Keep generator on a stable and level surface.
• Do not block generator air vents with paper or
other material.
Electronic devices, including computers and many
programmable appliances use components that are
designed to operate within a narrow voltage range
and may be affected by momentary voltage
fluctuations. While there is no way to prevent voltage
fluctuations, you can take steps to protect sensitive
electronic equipment.
Install UL1449, CSA-listed, plug-in surge
suppressors on the outlets feeding your sensitive
equipment.
3. Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator.
Never start or stop the generator with electrical
devices plugged in or turned on.
1. Before starting the generator, check for loose or
missing parts and for any damage which may
have occurred during shipment.
2. Check oil level and fuel.
Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES. Generator exhaust
contains carbon monoxide. This is a poison you cannot see or smell.
NEVER use inside a home or garage,
EVEN IF doors and windows are open.
Avoid other generator hazards. READ MANUAL BEFORE USE.
Only use OUTSIDE and far away
from windows, doors and vents.
WARNING
DANGER
Never use generator in wet or damp
locations. Never expose generator to
rain, snow, water spray or standing
water while in use. Protect generator
from all hazardous weather conditions.
Moisture, or ice can cause a short
circuit or other malfunction in the
electric circuit. Water contact with a
power source if not avoided, will result
in death or serious injury.
Page 18
Surge suppressors come in single- or multi-outlet
styles. They’re designed to protect against virtually
all short-duration voltage fluctuations.
For Cold Weather Starting
• While you must run your generator outside, you
may keep the generator in a covered area to
protect the generator and its battery from cold
weather.
• Use proper oil for the temperature expected.
Lighter weight oil (less viscosity) such as
synthetic 5W-30 is recommended for cold
weather applications.
• Disengage all possible external loads.
• Use fresh winter grade fuel. Winter grade fuel has
higher volatility to improve starting.
• Dual fuel and tri-fuel models: It would be easier to
start the engine with gasoline compared to propane
(or natural gas) in cold weather. It is recommended
to start your engine on gasoline and then switch to
propane (or natural gas), if it is hard to start your
dual fuel (or tri-fuel) generator with propane
(or natural gas).
Connecting Electrical Loads
Low Idle Switch
This unit has been pretested and adjusted to handle
its full capacity. Before starting the generator,
disconnect all loads. Apply load only after generator
is running. Voltage is regulated via the engine speed
adjusted at the factory for correct output.
Re-adjusting will void warranty.
NOTE:
Keep choke knob in “START” position for only 1 pull
of the recoil starter. After first pull, move choke knob
to the “RUN” position for up to the next 3 pulls of the
recoil starter. Too much choke leads to spark plug
fouling/engine flooding due to the lack of incoming air.
This will cause the engine not to start.
If engine starts after 3 pulls but fails to run. Or if unit
shuts down during operation, make sure unit is on a
level surface and check for proper oil level in
crankcase. This unit may be equipped with a low oil
protection device. If so, oil must be at proper level
for engine to start.
1. Let engine stabilize and warm up for a few minutes
after starting.
2. Ensure circuit breaker on control panel is in on
position.
3. Plug in and turn on the desired 120 Volt AC, single
phase, 60Hz electrical loads. It is better to attach
the item with largest load first.
NOTE:
When applying a load, do not exceed the maximum
wattage rating of the generator when using one or
more receptacles. Also, do not exceed the amperage
rating of any one receptacle.
Do not apply heavy electrical load during break-in
period (the first five hours of operations).
When starting engine, pull cord slowly until
resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid
kickback.
Starter cord kickback (rapid retraction)
will pull hand and arm toward engine
faster than you can let go which could
cause broken bones, fractures, bruises,
or sprains resulting in serious injury.
WARNING
NOTICE
Always start the generator with LOW IDLE SWITCH
on OFF position. Allow the engine speed to stabilize
and the OUTPUT READY INDICATOR LED to
illuminate green before switching LOW IDLE Switch
to ON position.
Page 19
4. Turn the starting dial switch to the “ON”
position.
Note: For restarting a warm engine, turn the starting
dial switch directly to the “RUN” position.
5. Pull recoil starter slowly until resistance is felt,
then pull rapidly.
6. Turn the starting dial switch to the RUN
position.
Page 20
For periods of high electrical load or momentary
fluctuations, the LOW IDLE Switch should be turned
OFF.
NOTICE
NOTE:
LOW IDLE minimizes fuel consumption and noise by
adjusting the engine speed (RPM) to the minimum
required for the current load. Turn LOW IDLE Switch
to ON position when powering small appliances with
continuous loads such as a computer or electric light.
Turn LOW IDLE Switch to OFF position when
powering large surge loads such as an air conditioner
or electric pump. Be certain that the OUTPUT READY
INDICATOR LED is illuminated green before turning
the switch to ON position. If no load is present, the
generator speed (RPM) will drop to idle speed. The
generator will detect loads as they are applied and
increase engine speed (RPM). To run the generator
at maximum power and speed (RPM), push the LOW
IDLE Switch to the OFF position.
NOTE:
If the engine will not be used for a period of two
weeks or longer, please see the Storage section for
proper engine and fuel storage.
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and
explosive which could cause burns, fire or explosion
resulting in death or serious injury.
DO NOT stop engine by moving choke control to
“START” position.
WARNING
Stopping the Engine
1. Turn off and remove entire electrical loads.
Never start or stop the generator with electrical
devices plugged in or turned on.
Let the generator run at no-load for two minutes to
stabilize internal temperatures of the engine and
generator.
2.1 Short term storage
2.2 Long term storage
Turn the starting dial switch to the engine stop
position.
Turn the starting dial switch
to the fuel off position.
Turn the starting dial
switch to the engine
stop position when
engine stopped.
2. Stop and storage
The engine will continue to
run until the majority of the
fuel in the carburetor is
consumed, which takes a
few minutes. lt will then
shut off automatically. This
feature helps to prevent the
carburetor from being
clogged by stale fuel,
extending your generator's
lifespan.
2. Restart engine and if the engine stops again a low
oil condition may still exist. DO NOT try to restart
the engine.
3. Contact Customer Service.
4. DO NOT operate engine until oil level is corrected.
Low Oil Shutdown
If the engine oil drops below a preset level, an oil
switch will stop the engine. Check oil level with
dipstick.
If oil level is between LOW and HIGH mark on
dipstick:
1. DO NOT try to restart the engine.
Do Not Overload Generator
Overloading a generator in excess of its rated wattage
capacity can result in damage to the generator and to
connected electrical devices.
To prolong the life of your generator and attached
devices, follow these steps to add electrical load:
1. Start the generator with no electrical load attached.
2. Allow the engine to run for several minutes to
stabilize.
3. Plug in and turn on the first item. It is best to
attach the item with the largest load first.
4. Allow the engine to stabilize.
5. Plug in and turn on the next item.
6. Allow the engine to stabilize.
7. Repeat steps 5-6 for each additional item.
