GENERATOR USE CONNECTIONS TO A BUILDING’S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM Connections for standby power to a building’s electrical system must be made by a qualified electrician. The connection must isolate the generator power from utility power, and must comply with all appli- cable laws and electrical codes. Improper connections to a building’s electrica[...]

AC APPLICATIONS Before connecting an appliance or power cord to the generator: l Make sure that it is in good working order. Faulty appliances or power cords can create a potential for electrical shock. l If an appliance begins to operate abnormally, becomes sluggish or stops suddenly, turn it off immediately. Disconnect the appliance, and determin[...]

AC OPERATION 1. Start the engine (see page 30). 2. Switch the AC circuit breaker ON. 3. Plug the appliance into the appropriate AC receptacle. Do not exceed the current limit specified for any one receptacle. If an overloaded circuit causes the AC circuit breaker or circuit protector to switch OFF, reduce the electrical load on the circuit, wait a [...]

HOW TO USE THE RECEPTACLES When. two or more receptacles are used, refer to the table below and apply the load to each receptacle equally to prevent overloading. Voltage fluctuation can be prevented by applying the load equally to the single phase receptacles. Receptacle 240 ‘J 120v Case 50 A 30 A 50 A 30 A 20 A Max. for both Using 240 V only 39.[...]

AUTO-THROll-LE SYSTEM With the switch in the AUTO position, engine speed is automatically reduced when ALL loads are turned OFF or disconnected. When appliances are turned ON or reconnected, the engine returns to rated speed. In the OFF position, the auto-throttle system does not oper- ate. The auto-throttle system will not respond to electrical lo[...]

HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be too rich. Performance will decrease, and fuel consumption will increase. A very rich mixture will also foul,the spark plug and cause hard starting. High altitude performance can be improved by specific modifications to the carburetor. If you always operate yo[...]

PRE-OPERATION CHECK ENGINE OIL l Engine oil is a major factor affecting engine performance and service life. Nondetergent oils and 2-stroke engine oils are not recommended because they have inadequate lubricating charac- teristics. l Check the oil level BEFORE EACH USE with the engine on a level surface and the engine stopped. Use 4-stroke motor oi[...]

FUEL Refueling Fuel tank capacity: 6.9 US gal (26e. 5.7lmp gal) Check the fuel level gauge, and refill the tank if the fuel level is low. Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive, and you can be burned or seriously injured when handling fuel. l Stop engine and keep heat, sparks, and flame away. l Handle fuel only outdoors. l Wipe up spills immedi[...]

Fuel Recommendations Use unleaded gasoline with a pump octane rating of 86 or higher. This engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline. Unleaded gasoline produces fewer engine and spark plug deposits and extends exhaust system life. Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/gasoline mixture. Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel [...]

Oxygenated Fuels Some conventional gasolines are being blended with alcohol or an ether compound. These gasolines are collectively referred to as oxygenated fuels. To meet clean air standards, some areas of the United States and Canada use oxygenated fuels to help reduce emis- sions. If you use an oxygenated fuel, be sure it is unleaded and meets t[...]

MAINTENANCE SAFETY Some of the most important safety precautions follow. However, we cannot warn you of every conceivable hazard that can srise in petfor- ming maintenance. Only you can decide whether or not you should perform a given task. Failure to properly follow maintenance instructions and precau- tions can cause you to be seriously hurt or k[...]

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM Source of Emissions The combustion process produces carbon monoxide, oxides of nitro- gen, and hydrocarbons. Control of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen is very important because, under certain conditions, they react to form photochemical smog when subjected to sunlight. Carbon monoxide does not react in the same way, but[...]

BATTERY The generator’s engine has a 3-amp charging system to charge the battery while the engine is running. If the generator is only used periodically, the battery must be charged monthly to maintain the battery service life. ‘_ A lead acid battery self discharges at a rate of 0.5- 1 .O% per day. This means that the battery, if the generator [...]

Inspection : 1. Remove the battery cell caps. 2. Inspect the electrolyte level of each cell. The electrolyte level must be maintained between the UPPER and LOWER limit marks. 3. If the electrolyte level is near the LOWER mark, add distilled water as necessary. UPPER LIMIT LOWER LIMIT The battery contains sulfuric acid (electrolyte) which is highly [...]

Charging: The battery is rated at 14AH (ampere-hour). 10% of the ampere- hour rating should be used as the charging current. A battery charger should be used that can be adjusted to deliver 1.4 amps. The battery gives off expiosive hydrogen gas during normal opera- tion. A spark or open flame can cause the battery to explode with enough force to ki[...]

TRANSPORTING/STORAGE When transporting the generator, turn the engine switch and the fuel valve OFF. Keep the generator level to preventfuel spillage. Fuel vapor or spilled fuel may ignite. If the engine has been running, allow it to cool for at least 15 minutes before loading the generator on the transport vehicle or placing it in storage. A hot e[...]

Before storing the unit for an extended period; 1. Be sure the storage area is free of excessive humidity and dust. 2. Drain the fuel. a.
