NOTE: If engine fires, but does not continue to

run, rotate the Off/On/Choke dial to OFF and

repeat starting instructions.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not overload gener-

ator or individual panel receptacles. See

Figure 3-3. If an overload occurs, the over-

Generator Shut Down

1. Shut off all loads and unplug electrical

loads from generator panel receptacles.

2. Let engine run at no-load for several min-

utes to stabilize internal temperatures of

engine and generator.

3. See Figure 3-2 Rotate Off/On/Choke dial

to OFF (3).

4. Turn fuel cap OFF.

Starting Hot Engines

1. See Figure 3-2. Turn Off/On/Choke dial

from STOP to ON. This will open the fuel

valve and permit starting.

2. Firmly grasp recoil handle and pull slowly

until increased resistance is felt. Pull rap-

idly up and away.

Low Oil Level Shutdown System

The engine is equipped with a low oil level

sensor that shuts down the engine automati-

cally when the oil level drops below a speci-

fied level to prevent engine damage. See

Figure 3-3 (B). The engine will not run until the

oil has been filled to the proper level.

If the engine shuts down and there is sufficient

fuel, check engine oil level.

Parallel Operation

See the Parallel Kit Operator’s Manual or con-

tact an IASD.

NOTE: All connections to the parallel kit

should be made while both inverters are

turned off and all loads disconnected.

1. Make sure the Engine Economy Switch is

in the same position on both generators.

2. Make appropriate parallel connections to

the outlets on each Generac inverter as

outlined in the owner’s manual supplied

with the kit.

NOTE: Do not disconnect any parallel kit con-

nections once the units are running.

3. Start both units per starting instructions.

Once the green output indicator illumi-

nates, devices can be connected and

turned on using the parallel kit outlet.

4. Follow Generator Shut Down instructions.

NOTE: Only use Generac approved parallel

kit.
