Safety Instructions
WARNING! Read and understand all safety precautions in this manual before operating. Failure to
comply with instructions in this manual could result in personal injury and/or property damage.
FUEL IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE AND POISONOUS
• Always turn off the engine when refueling.
• Never refuel while smoking or in the vicinity of an open flame.
• Take care not to spill any fuel on the engine or muffler when refueling.
• If you swallow any fuel, inhale fuel vapor, or allow any to get in your eye(s), see your doctor immediately.
If any fuel spills on your skin or clothing, immediately wash with soap and water and change your clothes.
• When operating or transporting the machine, be sure it is kept upright. If it tilts, fuel may leak from car-
buretor or fuel tank.
EXHAUST FUMES ARE POISONOUS
• Never operate this product in a closed area or it may cause unconsciousness and death within a short
time. Always operate this product in a well ventilated outdoor area.
ENGINE AND MUFFLER MAY BE HOT
• When operate the generator, place it in a safe area away from pedestrians or children.
• Avoid placing any flammable materials near the exhaust outlet during operation.
• Keep the generator at least 1m(3 ft) from buildings or other equipment, or the product may overheat.
• Do not operate the product with a dust cover, or other objects covering it.
• When covering the generator, be sure to do so only after the engine and muffler have completely cooled down.
• Be sure to carry the generator only by its carrying handles.
• Do not place any obstacles on the generator.
TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK
• Never operate the product in rain or snow.
• Never touch the generator with wet hands or electrical shock can occur.
GROUNDING
• Properly ground generator to prevent electric shock.
• Connect the ground terminal of the generator to the ground electrode buried in the ground.
WARNING NOTES
• Failure to properly ground the generator can result in electric shock.
• Be sure to always comply with electric loads.
CONNECTION
• Before the generator can be connected to a building’s electrical system, a license electrician must in-
stall an isolation (transfer) switch in the building’s main fuse box. The switch is the connection point for
generator power and allows selection of generator or main line power to the building. This will prevent
the generator from charging the main power line (back feeding) when the main power supply has failed
or has been turned off for line maintenance. Also, generator and building electrical system damage can
occur when normal operating power returns if unit is used without an auto-switch.
• Always use proper approved electrical cords. Be sure to comply with all electric codes.
• Do not use electrical cords that are worn or damaged.
• Always use GFCI (ground fault circuit interruptor) for damp locations.
EN-1

• Always use proper approved transfer switch to isolated generator from the electric panel.

Electrical Connection
Capacity
Follow these simple steps to calculate the running and starting watts necessary for your purposes.
1.Select the electrical devices you plan on running at the same time.
2.Total the running watts of these items. This is the amount of power you need to keep your items running.
3.Identify the highest starting wattage of all devices identified in step 1.
Power management
Use the following formula to convert voltage and amperage to watts: Volts x Amps = Watts
To prolong the life of your generator and attached devices, follow these steps to add electrical load:
EN-6

1. Start the generator with no electrical load attached.
2. Allow the engine to run for several minutes to stabilize.
3. Plug in and turn on the first item. It is best to attach the item with the largest load first.
4. Allow the engine to stabilize.
5. Plug in and turn on the next item.
6. Allow the engine to stabilize.
7. Repeat steps 5 to 6 for each addition.
Connecting electrical loads
1. Let the engine stabilize and warm up a few minutes after starting.
2. Prior to power tools and equipment, make sure the generator’s rated voltage, and amperage (120V AC
at 7 AMP, 12V DC at 8 AMP) is adequate to supply all electrical loads that the unit will power. If powering
exceeds the generator’s capacity, it may be necessary to group one or more of the tools and/or equip-
ment for connection to a separate generator.
3. Once the generator is running, simply connect the power cords of 120V AC powered tools and equip-
ment into the 120V AC dual outlets and/or the power cord of a 12V DC powered tool to the DC terminals.
4. Do not connect 3-phased loads to the generator.
5. Do not connect 50Hz loads to the generator.
6. Do not overload the generator.
Note: The DC terminal may be used for charging 12V automotive type batteries only.
Parallel connection within 2 generators
Performance: Allows you to increase the output by connecting two generators together. By using the par-
allel connection wires provided.
Instant increased power once connected: Parallel running watts = 3420 watts / 28 AMP
Attention: Be sure that generators are powered off and without load when connecting the parallel wires.
1. Put the parallel connection wire 1 and 2 into the parallel connection sockets 3 and 4.
Attention: Grounding wire must be properly connected.
EN-7

2. Start 2 sets of inverter generators. The starting operation is as the same as normal process (refer on
manual book starting parts).
Attention: Please make sure the parallel connection wires have been put into the parallel connection
sockets properly. If not connected properly, inverter generator could be damaged.
