Warnings
•Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide. Do not operate the generator in a
confined environment. Only use outdoors, away from open doors, windows or vents.
•The muffler becomes extremely hot during operation, and remains hot for a while after
stopping the engine. Be careful not to touch the muffler while it is hot. Let the engine
cool before storing the generator indoors.
•The engine exhaust system will be heated during operation and will remain hot
immediately after stopping the engine. To prevent scalding, pay attention to the warning
labels on the generator.
•Do not connect other cables to receptacles during use or use a special ack as it may
cause electric shock.
•Fuel is extremely flammable, and is even explosive under certain conditions. Refuel unit in
a ventilated area with the engine stopped.
•Keep away from cigarettes, smoke and sparks when refuelling the generator. Always
refuel in a well ventilated location.
•Connecting the unit to a building electrical system as a standby power source must be
performed by a qualified electrician. The connection must isolate the generator from
utility power, and must comply with all applicable laws and electrical codes. Improper
connections to a building's electrical system can allow electrical current from the
generator to backfeed into the utility lines. Such backfeed may electrocute utility
company workers or others who contact lines during a power outage, and the generator
may explode or catch fire when utility power is restored.
•To avoid accidents and equipment damage, check the generator every time before
starting the engine.
•Keep the generator at least 1 meter away from other equipment during operation.
•Keep the generator horizontal when running. If the generator is tilted, it may cause fuel
spillage.
•Generator operators must be trained, must know how to stop the generator quickly and
understand the purpose and operation of all controllable parts. Untrained operators must
not be allowed to use the equipment.
•Keep children and pets away from operation area.
•Keep away from rotating parts during operation.
•Do not operate unit with wet hands.
•Do not operate the generator in rain or snow, or let it get wet.
•Wipe up any spilled fuel at once.

Pre-operation Checks
•Be sure to check the generator is on a level surface with the engine stopped.
•Check the engine oil level.
•Using 2-stroke engine oil could shorten the engine's service life. Use a premium quality
4-stroke engine oil.
Checking the Oil
•Loosen the cover screw and remove the left side maintenance cover. Remove the oil filer
cap, then wipe the dipstick with a rag. Check the oil level by reinserting the dipstick into
the filler hole without screwing it in.
•If the oil level is below the end of the dipstick, refill up to the top of the oil filler neck.
ote: The Oil Alert System will automatically stop the engine before the oil level falls below the
safe limit, however to avoid the inconvenience of an unexpected shut-down, it is still advisable
to visually inspect the oil level regularly.

Checking the Fuel Level
•Turn the fuel cap lever to the “OFF” position before transporting.
•Use unleaded automotive fuel.
ote: DO NOT use any fuels containing alcohol. Fuel system damage or engine performance
problems resulting from the use of fuels that contain alcohol are not covered by warranty.
•Never use an oil/petrol mixture or dirty fuel.
•Avoid getting dirt, dust or water in the fuel tank.
•After refuelling, tighten the fuel filler cap securely.
•Petrol is extremely flammable under certain conditions.
•Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped.
•Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is refuelled or where
petrol is stored.
•Do not overfill the fuel tank. After refuelling, make sure that the tank cap is closed
properly and securely.
•Be careful not to spill fuel when refilling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapours may ignite. If any fuel
is spilled, make sure the area is dry before starting the engine.
•Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin, or the breathing of vapour.
•KEEP FUEL OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN
Check the Air Cleaner
Check the air cleaner element to ensure it is clean and in good working condition.
1. Loosen the cover screw and remove the left side maintenance cover.
2. Press the latch tab on top of the air cleaner body, remove the air cleaner cartridge, then
check the element.
3. Clean and replace the element if necessary.
Never run the engine without the air cleaner. Rapid engine wear will result from airborne
contaminants such as dust and dirt being drawn through the carburettor and into the engine.
It is normal for a little oil to appear under the air filter box if the generator is running for a long
period of time or if a lot of oil is in the engine. Wipe up excess oil after each use and after
stopping the generator.

Using the Generator
Starting the Engine
1. Before starting the engine, disconnect any load from the DC receptacle. Turn the fuel cap
lever fully clockwise to the ON position.
2. Set the fuel valve to the ON position.
3. Set the motor switch to the ON position.
4. Pull slightly on the start cord until you feel resistance, then yank hard and swiftly.
•Do not let the start cord retract by itself, but instead guide it back by hand.
•Hold the carry handle firmly to prevent the generator from falling over when you pull the
start cord.
ote: A hot motor will not start if there is too much fuel in the cylinder. If this happens, wait for
five to ten minutes before trying again.

Engine Switch
Once the engine has started, allow the engine to run continuously and warm up.
If the engine stops and will not restart, check the engine oil level before troubleshooting in other
areas.
Before using a device once it is connected, switch the ECO switch off.
High Altitude Operation
At high altitudes, the standard carburettor air/fuel mixture will be excessively rich. Performance
will decrease and fuel consumption will increase.
High altitude performance can be improved by installing a smaller diameter main fuel et in the
carburettor and read usting the slow tempo screws. If you always operate the generator at
altitudes higher than 1,500m (4,000 feet) above sea level, have a specialist perform these
carburettor modifications.
Even with suitable carburettor etting, engine horsepower will decrease by approximately 3.5%
for each 300m (1,000 feet) increase in altitude. The effect of altitude on the horsepower will be
greater than this if no carburettor modification is made.
ote: Operation of the generator at an altitude lower than the carburettor is etted for may
result in reduced performance, overheating and serious engine damage caused by excessively
lean air/fuel mixture.
Generator Use
•To prevent electric shock from faulty appliances, the generator should be grounded.
Connect an electric conductor (cable) of at least 1.5mm2 between the generator's
ground terminal and an external ground source.
•Connections for standby power to a building's electrical system must be made by a
qualified electrician and must comply with all applicable laws and electrical codes.
Improper connections can allow electrical current from the generator to feedback into
the utility lines.
•Do not exceed the current limit set by any one receptacle.
•Do not connect the generator to a household circuit. This could cause damage to either
the generator, or to electrical appliances in the house.
•Do not modify or use the generator for any purpose other that what it is intended for.
•Keep the generator away from other electrical cables or wires such as the distribution
network.
•The DC receptacle can be used while AC power is in use. If you use both at once, ensure
you do not exceed the total power for AC and DC.
•Most appliances require more than their rated wattage for start up.
