Page 10
DO NOT attempt to crank or start the engine
before it has been properly filled with the
recommended type and amount of oil. Damage
to the generator as a result of failure to follow
these instructions will void your warranty.
1.Place generator on a flat and level surface.
2.Loosen the cover screw and remove the
maintenance cover.
NOTE:
The recommended oil type is 10W-30 automotive
oil. However outdoor temperatures will determine
the space proper oil viscosity for the engine. Use the
chart to select the best for the outdoor temperature
range expected.
The engine is equipped with a low oil shut-off and
will stop when the oil level in the crankcase falls
below the threshold level.
NOTE:
We consider the first 5 hours of run time to be
the break-in period for the unit. During the break
in period stay at or below 50% of the running
watt rating and vary the load occasionally to allow
stator windings to heat and cool. Adjusting the
load will also cause engine speed to vary and help
seat piston rings.
CAUTION
The unit is equipped with a low oil shutdown.If
the oil level becomes lower than required,the
sensor will activate a warning device or stop the
engine.
If generator shuts off and the oil level is within
specifications, check to see if generator is sitting
at an angle that forces oil to shift. Place on an
even surface to correct this. If engine fails to
start, the oil level may not be sufficient to
deactivate low oil level switch. Make sure the
sump is completely full of oil.
5.Replace oil fill cap/dipstick and fully tighten.
6.Reinstall maintenance cover and tighten screws.
4.Using oil funnel, slowly pour contents of
provided oil bottle into oil fill opening to the
"H" mark on dipstick. Be careful do not
overfill. Overfilling with oil could cause the
engine to not start or hard starting.

Surge Protection
Voltage fluctuation may impair the proper
functioning of sensitive electronic equipment.
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. Surge suppressors come
in single- or multi-outlet styles. They’re
de s ig n ed t o p r ot ec t a g a in st v i rt u al ly
all short-duration voltage fluctuations.
Operate this product ONLY outside far away
from windows, doors and vents to reduce
the risk of carbon monoxide gas from
accumulating and potentially being drawn
towards occupied spaces.
•
•
Install battery-operated carbon monoxide
alarms or plug-in carbon monoxide alarms
with battery back-up according to the
manufacturer’s instructions. Smoke alarms
cannot detect carbon monoxide gas.
•
DO NOT run this product inside homes,
garages, basements, crawlspaces, 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.
CAUTION
English Customer Service: 1-844-FIRMAN1
Starting the Generator
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.
3. Disconnect all electrical loads from the
generator. Never start or stop the generator
with electrical devices plugged in or turned
on.
4. Turn the fuel cap vent lever to the “O ”(l) position.N
5. Turn the fuel valve to the “ON”(l) position.
Page 14
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.
Keep choke lever in “START” position for only 1
pull of the recoil starter. After first pull, move
choke lever to the “RUN” position for up to the
next 3 pulls of the recoil starter. Too much
choke leads to sparkplug fouling/engine
flooding due to the lack of incoming air. This
will cause the engine not to start.
9. Do not over-choke. As soon as engine starts

must isolate generator power from utility
power and must comply with all applicable laws
and codes.
English Customer Service: 1-844-FIRMAN1
Connecting a generator to your electric utility
company’s power lines or to another power
source may be against the law. In addition this
action, if done incorrectly, could damage your
generator and appliances and could cause
serious injury or even death to you or a utility
worker who may be working on nearby power
lines. If you plan to run a portable electric
generator during an outage, please notify your
electric utility company immediately and
remember to plug your appliances directly into
the generator. Do not plug the generator into
any electric outlet in your home. Doing so could
create a connection to the utility company
power lines. You are responsible for ensuring
that your generator’s electricity does not feed
back into the electric utility power lines.
If the generator will be connected to a building
Economy Control Switch
The Economy Control switch can be activated in
order to minimize fuel consumption and noise
while operating the unit during times of reduced
electrical output, allowing the engine speed to
idle during periods of non-use. The engine speed
returns to normal when an electrical load is
connected. When the economy switch is off, the
engine runs at normal speed continuously.
WARNING
For periods of high electrical load or momentary
fluctuations, the Economy Control Switch should
be turned OFF.
12V DC Outlet (Battery Charger)
The 12V DC outlet is ONLY to be used with the
supplied 12V battery charging cable. The DC
output is unregulated and can damage some
12V DC products. This means that the charging
output dose not decrease as the battery reaches
full charge.
CAUTION
Storage batteries give off EXPLOSIVE hydrogen
gas while charging. Do not allow smoking, open
flames, sparks, or spark producing equipment
in the area while charging.
WARNING
The amount of current flowing will depend on the
charging voltage and battery's state of charge. As
the battery becomes more fully charged, the output
current to the battery decreases and nearly becomes
constant. Taper chargers are intended to be used
with the provision that they will be disconnected
from the battery after a maximum time on charge.
Normally a period of 30 to 120 minutes is sufficient
to recharge a weak battery. The charge level of the
battery should be checked periodically.
Do not start the vehicle while the battery charging
Cable is connected and the generator is running.
It will not give the battery a boost of power. The
Vehicle or the generator may be damaged.
Your generator has the capability of charging 12V
DC automotive or utility style storage battery
(NOT OTHER TYPE).
For use with 12V direct current outlet, always
keep the ECO mode deactivated (OFF Position).
You can use the 12V direct current outlet and
the 120V current at the same time, but keep the
ECO mode deactivated(OFF Position) at all times.
