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 far 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.
WARNING
Page 03
• ONLY use outside and downwind, far away from windows, doors and vents.
• Direct exhaust away from occupied spaces.
CORRECT USAGE
INCORRECT USAGE
Example location to reduce risk of carbon monoxide poisoning
• Near any door, window or vent
• Garage
• Basement
• Crawl Space

Page 04
FUEL SAFETY
• When starting engine, pull cord slowly until
resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid
kickback.
• NEVER start or stop engine with electrical devices
plugged in and turned on.
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
DANGER
Gasoline and gasoline vapors
• Gasoline is a liquid and can cause a fire or
explosion if ignited. Gasoline vapors can ignite as
well.
• Gasoline is a skin irritant and needs to be cleaned
up immediately if spilled on skin or clothes.
• Gasoline has a distinctive odor; this will help detect
potential leaks quickly.
• In case of a petroleum gas fire, do not attempt to
extinguish the flame if the fuel supply valve is in the
ON position. Introducing an extinguisher to a
generator with an open fuel supply valve could
create an explosion hazard.
• Gasoline expands or contracts with ambient
temperatures. Never fill the gasoline tank to full
capacity, as gasoline needs room to expand if
temperatures rise.
Propane/LPG (Liquid Petroleum Gas)
• Propane/LPG is highly flammable and explosive.
• LPG is heavier than air and can settle in low places
while dissipating.
• Propane/LPG has a distinctive odor added to help
detect potential leaks quickly.
• In case of a petroleum gas fire, do not attempt to
extinguish the flame if the fuel supply valve is in the
ON position. Introducing an extinguisher to a
generator with an open fuel supply valve could
create an explosion hazard.
• When exchanging propane/LPG cylinders, be sure
the cylinder valve is of the same type.
• Always keep the propane/LPG cylinder in an upright
position.
• Propane/LPG will burn skin if it comes in contact
with it. Keep it away from skin at all times.
WHEN ADDING OR DRAINING FUEL
• Turn generator engine off and let it cool at least 2
minutes before removing gasoline cap. Loosen cap
slowly to relieve pressure in gasoline tank.
• Only fill or drain gasoline tank outdoors in a
well-ventilated area.
• DO NOT overfill gasoline tank. Allow space for fuel
expansion.
• If gasoline spills, wipe spilled gasoline from the unit
or wait until it evaporates before starting engine.
• Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot
lights, heat, and other ignition sources.
• Check fuel lines, tank, cap, and fittings frequently
for cracks or leaks. Replace if necessary.
• DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke.
• DO NOT pump gasoline directly into the generator
at the gas station. Use an approved container to
transfer the gasoline to the generator.
Gasoline, gasoline vapor and propane/LPG are highly
flammable and explosive.Fire or explosion can cause
severe burns or death.
DANGER
Do not overfill tank. Allow space for fuel expansion. If
fuel spills wait until it evaporates before starting
engine. Failure to do so will result in death and
serious injury.
WHEN STARTING GENERATOR
• Ensure spark plug, exhaust system, gasoline cap,
fuel lines, propane/LPG regulator and air filter are in
place.
• Wipe spilled gasoline or wait until it evaporates
before starting engine.
• Make certain that the generator is operating firmly
on level ground.
• If you smell gasoline or propane, turn off all fuel
supplies. Make certain, there is no fuel leak before
operating the generator.
DANGER
Gasoline, gasoline vapor and propane/LPG are highly
flammable and explosive.
Never use a gasoline container, gasoline tank,
propane/LPG connector hose, propane/LPG cylinder
or any other fuel item that is broken, cut, torn or
damaged. Failure to do so will result in death and
serious injury.
DANGER
Gasoline, gasoline vapor and propane/LPG are highly
flammable and explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.

CO WATCH-GUARD
Carbon Monoxide (CO) Detection and Auto Shutoff System
Your Generator is equipped with Carbon Monoxide (CO) WATCH-GUARD detect system for your protection and
safety. This detecting and shutoff system monitors for the accumulation of poisonous CO gas around the
generator produced by engine exhaust when the generator is running. If the CO sensor detects increasing levels
of CO gas, it automatically shuts off the engine.
Generators are intended to be used outdoors and far away from occupied buildings, windows, doors and
exhaust pointed away from them.
However, if the generator misused and operated in a location that results in the accumulation of CO inside an
enclosed or partially enclosed space, CO WATCH- GUARD automatically shuts off the engine and notifies the
user of what has happened and directs the user to read the instruction of CO WATCH-GUARD Action Label for
steps to take.
AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF - YOU MUST:
• MOVE GENERATOR TO AN OPEN, OUTDOOR AREA. • POINT EXHAUST AWAY. • DON’T RUN
GENERATOR IN ENCLOSED AREAA (E.G. NOT IN HOUSE OR GARAGE).
CO WATCH-GUARD ACTION LABEL • ÉTIQUETTE D’ACTION • ETIQUETA DE FUNCIONAMIENTO

• VOUS RETIRER À L’AIR FRAIS.
• CONSULTER UN MÉDECIN SI VOUS ÊTES MALADE, ÉTOURDI OU FAIBLE.
• MOVER AL AIRE LIBRE.
• OBTENER ATENCIÓN MÉDICA SI SE SIENTE ENFERMO, MAREADO O DÉBIL.
APAGADO AUTOMÁTICO - USTED DEBE:
• MOVER EL GENERADOR A UN ÁREA ABIERTA, EN EXTERIORES. • ORIENTAR EL TUBO DE ESCAPE
HACIA AFUERA. • NO ACTIVAR EL GENERADOR EN ÁREAS CERRADAS (P.EJ.: EN UNA CASA O GARAJE).
NOTIFICATIONS: BLINKING RED AND YELLOW LIHGT
There is a CO indicator light on the control panel with two possibilities:
1-Blinking Red Light provides notification that the generator was shutoff due to an accumulating CO level
around the generator. The red light will blink for at least five minutes after a CO shut off. Automatic shutoff is an
indication generator was improperly located. Move the generator to an open, outdoor area far from occupied
spaces with exhaust pointed away. Once relocated to a safe area, the generator can be restarted. The red light
will stop blinking automatically after 2-5 seconds upon engine re-start.
If you start to feel sick, dizzy, weak, or your homes carbon monoxide alarm sounds while using the generator,
get to fresh air right away. Call emergency services. You may have carbon monoxide 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.
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.

Battery Cable Connection
A B
To connect the Battery
Do not attempt to crank or start the engine before
it has been properly filled with the recommended
type and amount of oil. Damage due to operation
with no oil will void your warranty.
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.
Add Engine Oil
We recommend using SAE 10W-30 APISJ oil for
best performance. Other high-quality detergent oils
(APISJ or higher) are acceptable. Do not use special
additives. Ambient temperature determines the
proper oil viscosity for the engine. Use the chart to
select the proper oil for the outdoor temperature
range expected.

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.
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.
1. Place generator on a flat and level surface.
2. Loosen the knob and remove the oil access
cover.
3. Remove oil fill cap/dipstick .
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.
5. Reinstall oil fill cap dipstick and fully tighten.
6. Oil level should be checked prior to each use or at
least 8 hours of operation. Keep oil level maintained.

WHEN ADDING GASOLINE
• Only fill the gasoline tank outdoors in a
well-ventilated area.
• DO NOT overfill gasoline tank. Allow space for fuel
expansion.
• If gasoline spills, wipe spilled gasoline from the unit
or wait until it evaporates before starting engine.
• Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot
lights, heat, and other ignition sources.
• Check fuel lines, tank, cap, and fittings frequently
for cracks or leaks. Replace if necessary.
• DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke.
• DO NOT fill the tank when the generator is running
or hot.
• DO NOT pump gasoline directly into the generator
at the gas station. Use an approved container to
transfer the gasoline to the generator.
• Only fill the tank from an approved gasoline
container. Make sure the gasoline container is
internally clean and in good condition to prevent
fuel system contamination.
• Gasoline can damage paint and plastic. Use
caution when filling the fuel tank. Damage caused
by spilled gasoline is not covered under warranty.
• Clean the fuel screen filter of debris before and
after each fueling. Remove the fuel screen filter by
slightly compressing it while removing it from the
fuel tank.
• It is important to prevent gum deposits from
forming in fuel system parts such as the carburetor,
fuel hose or tank during storage. Alcohol-blended
fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can
attract moisture, which leads to separation and
formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can
damage the fuel system of an engine while in
storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system
should be emptied before storage of 30 days or
longer. See the "Long Term Storage" section. Never
use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the
fuel tank as permanent damage may occur.
1. Remove the gasoline cap (A) slowly.
2. Slowly add unleaded gasoline to gasoline tank. Be
careful not to fill above the red fuel level indicator
(B). This allows adequate space for fuel expansion.
3. Install gasoline cap and let any spilled fuel
evaporate before starting engine or wipe the spilled
gasoline.
NOTICE
Add Fuel: Propane/LPG
DANGER
A
B
Add Fuel: Gasoline
Fuel must meet these requirements:
• Clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline.
• Use regular UNLEADED gasoline with the generator
engine with a minimum 87 octane / 87 AKI (91
RON). Do not use E85 or E15.
For high altitude use, see "Operation at High
Altitude".
• DO NOT mix oil in gasoline.
• DO NOT modify engine to run on alternate fuels.
DANGER
Gasoline and gasoline vapor are highly flammable
and explosive.Fire or explosion can cause severe
burns or death.
DANGER
Do not overfill tank. Allow space for fuel expansion. If
fuel spills wait until it evaporates before starting
engine. Failure to do so will result in death and
serious injury.
Page 18
• The provided propane/LPG hose with regulator,
works with standard 20, 30 and 40 pound capacity
cylinders with Type 1, right hand Acme threads.
Verify the re-qualification date on the tank has not
expired. Do not use rusted or damaged cylinders.
• Only use provided propane/LPG hose for safe
propane operation.
1. Make certain both gasoline and propane/LPG
valves are closed.
2. Remove the rubber protective plugs (if it is avaiable)
and attach the propane/LPG hose with regulator to
the propane/LPG inlet located on the side control
panel of the generator. Tighten with a 19mm or
adjustable wrench. DO NOT over-tighten.
3. Remove safety plug from the propane/LPG cylinder
valve (if it is available) and attach the other end of
the propane/LPG hose with regulator to cylinder
valve. Tighten the nut by hand clockwise to a
positive stop.
Propane/LPG is highly flammable and explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT use thread seal tape or any
type of sealant to seal the propane LPG hose
connections.
4. Open valve on propane LPG cylinder and check all
connections for leaks by wetting the fittings with a
solution of soap and water. Bubbles which appear
or bubbles which grow indicate that a leak exists.
If a leak exists at a fitting, then turn off the valve on
the cylinder and tighten the fitting. Turn the valve
back on and recheck the fitting with the soap and
water solution. If the leak continues or if the leak is
not at a fitting, then do not use the generator and
contact customer service.
NOTICE
• Use only an approved LPG cylinder equipped with
an OPD (overfilling prevention device) valve.
• DO NOT check for leaks with a lighted match or
flame.
• The propane cylinder valve should be fully closed
when the generator is not in use or is running with
gasoline.
• The regulator/hose assembly and cylinder valve
must be inspected before each use for leaks or sign
of damages.
• All new cylinders must be purged of air and
moisture prior to filling. Used cylinders that have not
been plugged or kept closed must also be purged.
The purging process should be done by your
propane gas supplier.
• Propane/LPG is heavier than air and can
accumulate in confined spaces and low places in
the event of a leak
• Propane/LPG has a distinctive odor added to help
detect potential leaks quickly.
• In case of a petroleum gas fire, do not attempt to
extinguish the flame if the fuel supply valve is in the
ON position. Introducing an extinguisher to a
generator with an open fuel supply valve could
create an explosion hazard.
• When exchanging propane/ LPG cylinders, be sure
the cylinder valve is of the same type.
• Always keep the propane/LPG cylinder in an
upright position.
• Propane/LPG will burn skin if it comes in contact
with it. Keep Propane/LPG away from skin at all
times.
• Always position the cylinder so the connection
between the valve and the regulator won’t cause
bends or kinks in the hose.
• DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes while you are
connecting the propane/LPG cylinder.Check the fuel
system periodically for leaks or signs of damages.
• In the event of an LPG fire, flames should not be
extinguished unless by doing so the fuel supply
valve can be turned off. If the fire is extinguished
and a supply of fuel is not turned off, an explosion
hazard greater than the fire hazard could be created.
DANGER
Page 19
Operation using an alternative main jet at elevations
lower than the recommended minimum altitude can
damage the engine. For operation at lower elevations,
the standard main jet supplied must be used.
Operating the engine with the wrong main jet may
increase exhaust emissions, fuel consumption and
reduce performance.
Operation at High Altitude
At altitudes over 5,000 feet(1524 meters), a
minimum 85 octane gasoline is acceptable. Engine
power and generator output will be reduced
approximately 3.5% for every 1000 feet (305 m) of
elevation above sea level. High altitude may cause
hard starting, increased fuel consumption and spark
plug fouling. To operate at high altitudes A-iPower
can provide a high altitude carburetor main jet. The
alternative main jet and installation instructions can
be obtained by contacting Customer Support.
Grounding
The national electrical requires your generator must
be connected properly to an appropriate ground to
help prevent electric shock.
The generator has a system ground that connects the
generator frame components to the ground terminals
on the AC output receptacles. There may be Federal
or State regulations, local codes, or ordinances that
apply to the intended use of the generator. Consult a
qualified electrician, electrical inspector, or the local
agency having jurisdiction. This generator is not
intended to be used at a construction site or similar
activity as defined by NFPA 70-2020 (NEC) section
590.6.
Connecting to a Building's Electrical System
Connections to your home’s electrical system must
use a listed transfer switch installed by a licensed
electrician. The connection must isolate the generator
power from the utility power and comply with all
applicable laws and electrical codes.
NOTICE
WARNING
Shock hazard. Failure to properly ground
the generator can result in electric shock.
Do not start generator if you smell propane. Always
fully close the propane tank valve and disconnect the
propane/LPG hose from the generator when not in use.
FUEL SENSE (Automatic Fuel Selection Technology)
Your generator is equipped with FUEL SENSE technolo-
gy which automatically switches fuel intake between
gasoline and propane/LPG to extend runtime. Propane
is a prioritized fuel which means the generator will use
propane as soon as the Propane Cylinder Valve is
opened. The generator will use gasoline if there is not
enough propane remaining in the cylinder OR if the
Propane Cylinder Valve is closed.
If you wish to use gasoline, the Starting Dial Switch
should be in the ON position and the Propane Cylinder
Valve should be CLOSED. Opening the Propane Cylin-
der Valve will immediately replace gasoline intake with
propane intake.
If you wish to use propane, the Starting Dial Switch
should be in the ON position and the Propane Cylinder
Valve should be OPEN. Closing the Propane Cylinder
Valve OR having an insufficient remaining level of
propane in the cylinder will immediately replace
propane intake with gasoline intake.

Generator Location
Surge Protection
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.
Surge suppressors come in single- or multi-outlet
styles. They’re designed to protect against virtually
all short-duration voltage fluctuations.
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
