Fuel Safety
DANGER
GASOLINE AND GASOLINE VAPORS ARE HIGHLY
FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
Unintentional startup can result in entanglement,
traumatic amputation or laceration.
Gasoline expands or contracts with ambient
temperatures. Never fill the gasoline tank to
full capacity, as gasoline needs room to expand
if temperatures rise.
Gasoline can cause a fire or explosion if ignited.
Gasoline is a liquid fuel but it’s vapors can ignite.
•
•
•
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 any gasoline fire, flames should not be
extinguished unless by doing so the fuel supply
valve can be turned OFF. This is because if a fire is
extinguished and a supply of fuel is not turned OFF,
then an explosion hazard could be created.
•
Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG/Propane):
This generator is dual fuel and capable of running
with both gasoline and Liquid Petroleum Gas
(LPG/Propane).
•
If you smell gas: close off the gas supply. Make
sure there is no leak before using the generator.
•
•
•
•
•
•
Gasoline:
Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) is highly flammable
and explosive. Fire or explosion can cause severe
burns or death.
Do not use or store LPG cylinder in a building,
garage or enclosed area.
Do not check for leaks with a lighted match or
flame.
The LPG cylinder valve should be fully closed
when the generator is not in use or is running
with gasoline.
DANGER
WARNING
Device used for handling LPG must be installed
and used in strict conformance with NFPA 58
(Liquefied Petroleum Gas Code) and NFPA 54
(National Fuel Gas) and all other codes, regulations
and manufacturer recommendations.
Never use a gas container, LPG connector
hose, LPG cylinder or any other fuel item that
is damaged or appears damaged.

repair the LPG system if a leak found before
using the generator.
•
CAUTION
LPG under pressure is highly flammable and
can cause a fire or explosion if ignited.
LPG is heavier than air and can accumulate in
confined spaces and low places in the event
of a leak.
LPG has a distinctive odor to help detect
potential leaks.
Do not allow children to tamper or play with
the LPG cylinder.
In the event of an LPG fire, flames should not
be extinguished unless by doing so the fuel

120VAC, 20AMP GFCI RECEPTACLE
This unit is equipped with a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI). This device meets applicable
federal, state and local codes .
A GFCI receptacle does NOT protect against
circuit overloads, short circuits, or shocks. For
example, electric shock can still occur if a person
touches charged electrical wires while standing
on a non-conducting surface, such as a wood floor.
Definition: Instead of following its normal safe
path, electricity passes through a persons body
to reach the ground. For example, a defective
appliance can cause a ground fault.
A GFCI receptacle is different from conventional
receptacles. In the event of a ground fault, a GFCI
will trip and quickly stop the flow of electricity to
prevent serious injury.
1. Plug a test lamp into the receptacle.
2. Start the generator, the test lamp should be on.
3. Press the “Test” button located on the front
of the receptacle to trip the device.
4. This should stop the flow of electricity making
the lamp shut off. The GFCI’s indicator light comes
off.

5. To restore the flow of electricity, press the
“RESET” button on the front of the receptacle.
If the GFCI does not perform in this manner, do
not use the receptacle. Contact a local service
dealer or costumer service.
6. This outlet is protected against overload by
a 20A push-to-reset circuit breaker. Use the
outlet to power 120V AC, single-phase, 60 Hz,
electrical loads requiring up to a combined
2400 watts (2.4 kW) or 20 amps of current.
Testing the GFCI: Test the GFCI outlet every
month as follows:
SELF-TEST OPERATION
A Self-Test GFCI receptacle has all the features
of a conventional GFCI receptacle. In addition,
this receptacle tests itself periodically to confirm
the GFCI electronics are functional. The Indicator
Light will be solid green when the GFCI is powered
from Line side and working correctly.
Self-Test Indications: If the Indicator Light is solid
orange or flashing red a problem may exist.
Press the TEST button to trip the GFCI. If unable to
Reset, replace the GFCI.

1.Place generator on a flat, level surface.
2.Clean area around oil fill and remove yellow
oil fill cap/dipstick.
3.Wipe dipstick clean.
NOTE:
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

IMPORTANT: 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

Operation at High Altitude
At altitudes over 5,000 feet(1524 meters), a
minimum 85 octane / 85 AKI (89 RON) gasoline
is acceptable.
The density of air at high altitude 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 3.5% for every 1000 feet
of elevation above sea level. This is a
natural trend and cannot be changed by
adjusting the engine. 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

Observing frost on LPG and regulators
is common during operation and normally is not
an indication of a problem. As LPG vaporizes and
travels from the tank to the generator engine it
expands. The amount of frost that forms can be
affected by the size of the cylinder, the amount
of fuel being used, the humidity of the air and other
operating conditions. In unusual situations this
frost may eventually restrict the flow of LPG gas
cylinders
NOTE:
to the generator resulting in deteriorating
performance. For example, if the tank temperature
is reduced to a very low level then the rate at which
the LPG vaporizes is also reduced and may not
provide sufficient fuel flow to the engine. This is
not an indication of a problem with the generator
but only a problem with the flow of gas from the
LPG cylinder. If generator performance seems
to be deteriorating at the same time that ice
formation is observed on tank valve, hose or
regulator then some actions may be taken to
eliminate this symptom. In these rare situations
it can be helpful to reduce or eliminate the cold
fuel system effects by doing one of the following:
The LPG cylinder can be temporarily warmed
by pouring warm water over the top of the
cylinder.
Exchanging fuel tanks to allow the first tank
to warm up, repeating as necessary
•
Placing the LPG cylinder at the end of the
generator near the handle, where engine fan
air flows out from the generator. This air is
slightly heated by flowing over the engine.

GENERATOR MAINTENANCE
Make certain that the generator is kept clean
and stored properly. Only operate the unit on
a flat, level surface in a clean, dry operating
environment. DO NOT expose the unit to
extreme conditions, excessive dust, dirt,
moisture or corrosive vapours.
DO NOT use a garden hose to clean the generator.
Water can enter the generator through the cooling
slots and damage the generator windings.
Use a damp cloth to clean exterior surfaces of
the generator.
Use a soft bristle brush to remove dirt and oil.
Use an air compressor (25 PSI) to clear dirt and
debris from the generator.
Inspect all air vents and cooling slots to ensure
that they are clean and unobstructed.

SERVICE AND STORAGE
Infrequent Service
If the unit is used infrequently, difficult starting
may result. To eliminate hard starting, follow
these instructions:
1. Run the generator at least 30 minutes every
month.
2. Run the generator, then close the fuel shut-off
valve and allow the unit to run until the engine
stops.
3. Move the fuel selector to the "OFF" position.
Long Term Storage
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming
in essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor,
fuel hoses 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 gas can damage the fuel system of
an engine while in storage.
When the generator set is not being operated,
or is being stored for more than one month, follow
these instructions to avoid engine problems:
1-ADD a properly formulated commercially FUEL
STABILIZER to the tank if it is not already added.
2-Operate the engine for 5-10 minutes to circulate
treated fuel into fuel lines and carburetor before
shutdown.
3- After engine cools down, remove all gasoline
from the fuel tank. Use a commercially available,
non-conductive vacuum siphon.
DANGER
Drain fuel into approved container outdoors,
away from open flame. Be sure engine is cool.
Do not smoke.
4-FUEL STARVATION: Turn fuel selector switch
to “GAS” position. Start and run the generator until it
stops from lack of gasoline. This will dry out all
remaining gasoline in tank, fuel lines and carburetor.
5-Turn fuel selector switch to “OFF” position.
Fully close the LPG cylinder knob if it is open and
disconnect LPG cylinder from the generator.
6-Allow the unit to cool entirely before cleaning
and storage.
7-Change oil with recommended grade oil.
8-Remove spark plug and pour about one teaspoon
of engine oil through the spark plug hole, then pull
the recoil starter several times to distribute the oil for
lubricating the cylinder. Reattach the spark plug.
Pull recoil slowly until resistance is felt. This will
close the valves so moisture cannot enter engine
9-Cover the unit and store in a clean, dry place
out of direct sunlight. NEVER USE WATER TO
CLEAN GENERATOR.
cylinder. Gently release recoil starter.
We recommend always using a fuel stabilizer.
A FUEL STABLIZER will minimize the formulation
of fuel gum deposits during storage, the fuel
stabilizer can be added to the gasoline in the
fuel tank, or into the gasoline in a storage
container.
Note:
•
If it is not practical to empty the fuel tank and
the unit is to be stored for some time, use a
commercially available FUEL STABILIZER added
to the gasoline to increase the life of the gasoline.
Run the unit for 5-10 minutes to circulate treated
gasoline into the fuel lines abs carburetor before
shutdown. DO NOT STORE GENERATOR WITHOUT
FUEL STABILIZER IN FUEL SYSTEM INCLUDING
TANK, FUEL LINES AND CARBURETOR.

WARNING
Generator exhaust contains odorless and
colorless carbon monoxide gas.
To avoid accidental or unintended ignition of
your generator during periods of storage, the
following precautions should be followed:
When storing the generator for short or extended
periods of time make sure that the fuel selector
switch is in the “OFF” position and the battery
leads have been disconnected from the battery.
The battery powers up the starter motor and the control
module in this generator. This product is equipped with
an automatic battery charging circuit. The battery will
receive charging voltage when the engine is running.
The battery will maintain a proper charge if the unit is
used on a regular basis (about once every two weeks).
If it is used less frequently, the battery should be connected
to a trickle charger (not included) or battery maintainer (not
included) to keep the battery properly charged. If the
battery is not able to start the engine, it can be started
manually only on “GAS” position by pulling the engine
recoil cord. If the battery voltage is extremely low, the
charging circuit may not be able to re-charge the battery.
In this case, the battery must be connected to a standard
automotive style battery charger for re-charging before
it can be used.
