DANGER: CARBON MONOXIDE
Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES. Generator exhaust contains carbon mon-
oxide (CO). This is a poison gas you cannot see or smell. If you can smell the generator exhaust, you are
breathing CO. But even if you cannot smell the exhaust, you could be breathing CO.
NEVER use a generator inside homes, garages, crawl spaces, or other partially enclosed areas. Deadly
levels of carbon monoxide can build up in these areas. Using a fan or opening windows and doors does
NOT supply enough fresh air. ONLY use a generator outside and far away from windows, doors, and
vents. These openings can pull in generator exhaust.
Even if you use a generator correctly, CO may leak into the home. ALWAYS use a battery-powered or
battery-backup CO alarm in the home. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the generator has been
running, move to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may have carbon monoxide poisoning.
SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING: The exhaust from this product contains chemicals known to the State of Califor-
nia to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
WARNING: This generator may emit highly flammable and explosive gasoline vapors, which
can cause severe burns or even death if ignited. A nearby open flame can lead to explosion even
if it isn’t directly in contact with gasoline.
WARNING: If this generator is used as a supply for a building’s wiring system, the generator
must be installed by a qualified electrician and connected to a transfer switch as a separately de-
rived system in accordance with the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70. The generator shall be
connected to a transfer switch that switches all conductors excluding the equipment grounding
conductor. The frame of the generator shall be connected to an approved grounding electrode.
WARNING: This generator produces heat when running. Temperatures near exhaust can ex-
ceed 1500 F (650 C). DO NOT TOUCH HOT SURFACE.
NOTE: For power outages, permanently installed stationary generators are better suited for providing backup
power to the home. Even a properly connected portable generator can become overloaded. This may result in
overheating or stressing of the components, possibly leading to a generator failure.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS – This manual contains important instructions for the WEN generator that
should be followed during installation and maintenance of the generator. DO NOT operate this generator until you
have read all safety operation and maintenance instructions listed in this manual.
For any questions regarding the hazard and safety notices listed in this manual or on the product, please call cus-
tomer service at (800) 232-1195 M-F 8-5 CST or email [email protected] before using the generator.

STEP 1 - ADD/CHECK OIL
The generator is shipped without oil. A proper amount of oil must be added before operating the generator for the
first time. For subsequent operation, the oil level should be checked before each use or after every 8 hours of opera-
tion. This is a critical step for proper engine starting to ensure that the engine crankcase contains sufficient lubricant.
The oil capacity of the engine crankcase is 16.9 fl. ounces.
GENERATOR PREPARATION
CAUTION: The Generator Preparation Section describes the necessary steps to prepare the generator
for use. If you have any questions after reading this section, please call (800) 232-1195 M-F 8-5 CST for
customer service. Failure to perform these steps properly can damage the generator or shorten its life.
To ll oil, follow these steps:
1. Make sure the generator is shut off.
Place the generator on a level surface.
NOTE: Tilting the generator to assist
in filling will cause oil to flow into the
engine areas and will cause damage.
Keep the generator level!
2. Open the oil access cover (Fig. 2 - 1).
Unscrew and remove the oil dipstick.
3. Using an oil funnel or appropriate
dispenser, slowly add oil into the oil fill
(Fig. 3). Fill the crank case to the upper
fill line so you can visually see the oil
coming halfway up the oil fill threads. Be
careful not to overfill.
4. Reinstall the oil dipstick and wipe
clean any spilled oil with a dry rag.
To check/add oil, follow these steps:
1. Open the oil access cover (Fig. 2 - 1),
remove and wipe the oil dipstick with a clean
rag. Insert the dipstick into the oil fill opening
without screwing it in.
2. Remove the dipstick to check the oil mark
on the dipstick (Fig. 4). Add oil if the oil mark
covers less than one half of the dipstick.
3. Slowly add oil and repeat step 2 until the oil
mark reaches to the top of dipstick (or when
you can see the oil coming halfway up the oil
fill threads). Do not overfill the crankcase.
4. Wipe clean any oil leaks and firmly tighten
the dipstick.

After completing the above preparation, the generator is ready to be started.
Step 2 - ADD GASOLINE
Use fresh (within 30 days from purchase), lead-free gasoline with a
minimum of 87 octane rating. Do not mix oil with gasoline.
The capacity of the fuel tank is 1 gallon.
To add gasoline, follow these steps:
1. Make sure the generator is on a level surface and in a well ven-
tilated area.
2. Unscrew the fuel cap (Fig. 5 - 1) and set it aside. NOTE: The
fuel cap may be tight and hard to unscrew.
3. Slowly add unleaded gasoline to the fuel tank. Be careful not
to overfill. NOTE: Do not fill the fuel tank to the very top. Leave
sufficient room in the tank for gasoline to expand.
4. Reinstall fuel cap and wipe clean any spilled gasoline with a dry
cloth.
WARNING: Failure to properly ground the gen-
erator increases your risk of electric shock.
Grounding Nut
IMPORTANT:
• Use only UNLEADED gasoline.
• Never use an oil/gasoline mixture.
• Never use old gasoline.
• Avoid getting dirt or water into the fuel
tank.
• Never store generator for extended
periods of time with fuel in the tank.
GENERATOR PREPARATION
WARNING: Keep generator away from open flame. This generator may emit highly flam-
mable and explosive gasoline vapors, which can cause severe burns or even death if ignited.
A nearby open flame can lead to explosion even if not directly in contact with gasoline.

STEP 3 - GROUND THE GENERATOR
Ground the generator by tightening the grounding nut (Fig. 6)
on the front control panel against a grounding wire. A generally
acceptable grounding wire is a No. 12 AWG (American Wire
Gauge) stranded copper wire. This grounding wire should be con-
nected at the other end to a copper, brass, or steel-grounding rod
that is driven into the earth. Wire and grounding rods are not
included with the generator.
Grounding codes can vary by location. Contact a local electrician
to check the area codes.
