SAFETY

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Never use the generator to power medical support

equipment.

• Do not operate the generator when you are tired or

under the inuence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.

• Do not use generator with electrical cords which are

worn, frayed, bare, or otherwise damaged.

• All electrical tools and appliances operated from this

generator must be properly grounded by use of a third

wire or be double-insulated.

• When this generator is used to supply a building wiring

system the generator must be installed by a qualied

electrician and connected to a transfer switch as a

separately derived system in accordance with NFPA 70,

National Electrical Code.

• If you begin to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using

the generator, move to fresh air IMMEDIATELY. See a

doctor, as you can have carbon monoxide poisoning.

• Only use OUTSIDE and far away from windows, doors,

and vents as recommended by the US Department

of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease

Control and Prevention. Your specic home and/or wind

conditions may require additional distance.

• While operating and storing, keep at least ve feet

of clearance on all sides of the generator, including

overhead. Allow the generator to cool a minimum of 30

minutes before storage. Heat created by the mufer and

exhaust gases could be hot enough to cause serious

burns and/or ignite combustible objects.

• Do not touch the mufer or engine. They are very HOT

and will cause severe burns. Do not put body parts or

any ammable or combustible materials in the direct

path of the exhaust.

• Always remove any tools or other service equipment

used during maintenance away from the generator

before operating.

• Avoid skin contact with engine oil or gasoline. Wear

protective clothing and equipment. Wash all exposed

skin with soap and water.

FUEL SAFETY

• Store fuel in a container approved for gasoline.

• Do not smoke when lling the generator with gasoline.

• Do not allow the generator’s gas tank to overow when

lling.

• Shut down the engine and allow it to cool for two

minutes before adding gasoline or oil to the generator.

• Never remove the fuel cap when the generator is

running. Shut off the engine and allow the unit to cool

at least two minutes. Remove the fuel cap slowly to

release pressure, keep fuel from escaping around the

cap, and to avoid the heat from the mufer igniting fuel

vapors. Tighten the fuel cap securely after refueling.

• Wipe spilled fuel from the unit.

• Never attempt to burn off spilled fuel.

• Never overll the fuel tank. Leave room for fuel to

expand. Overlling the fuel tank can result in a sudden

overow of gasoline and result in spilled gasoline

coming in contact with HOT surfaces.

• Spilled fuel can ignite. If fuel is spilled on the generator,

wipe up any spills immediately. Dispose of rag properly.

Allow area of spilled fuel to dry before operating the

generator.

• Wear eye protection while refueling.

• Never use gasoline as a cleaning agent.

• Store any containers containing gasoline in a well-

ventilated area, away from any combustibles or source

of ignition.

GASOLINE AND GASOLINE VAPOR (GAS)

Fire and explosion hazard. Gasoline is highly explosive

and ammable and can cause severe burns or death.

• In case of a gas re, do not attempt to extinguish

the ame if the fuel tank valve is in the ON position.

Introducing an extinguisher to a generator with an open

fuel valve could create an explosion hazard.

• Gas has a distinctive odor, this will help detect potential

leaks quickly.

• Gas vapors can cause a re if ignited.

• Gasoline is a skin irritant and needs to be cleaned up

immediately if it comes in contact with the skin.

When starting the generator:

• Make sure that the fuel cap, air lter, spark plug, fuel

lines, and exhaust system are properly in place.

• If you spill any gasoline on the tank, allow it to fully

evaporate before operating.

When transporting or servicing the generator:

• Disconnect the spark boot to prevent accidental starting.

When storing the generator:

• Store away from sparks, open ames, pilot lights, heat,

and other sources of ignition.

• Do not store gasoline near furnaces, water heaters,

or any other appliances that produce heat or have

automatic ignitions.

use. Protect the generator from all hazardous weather

conditions. Moisture or ice can cause a short circuit

or other malfunction in the electrical circuit. Using a

generator or electrical appliance in wet conditions, such

as rain or snow, or near a pool or sprinkler system, or

when your hands are wet, could result in electrocution

Fire hazard. Only operate the generator on a solid, level

surface. Operating the generator on a surface with loose

material such as sand or grass clippings can cause debris

to be ingested by the generator that could block cooling

vents or the air intake system. Allow the generator to

cool for 30 minutes before transport or storage.

The generator should be on a at, level surface at all times

(Even while not in operation). The generator must have

at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) of clearance from all combustible

material.

Do not operate the generator in the back of a SUV, camper,

trailer, truck bed (regular, at, or otherwise), under stairs,

next to walls or buildings, or in any other location that will

not allow for adequate cooling of the generator and/or the

mufer. DO NOT contain generators during operation.

Asphyxiation hazard. Place the generator in a well-

ventilated area. DO NOT place the generator near vents

or intakes where exhaust fumes could be drawn into

occupied or conned spaces. Carefully consider wind

and air currents when positioning the generator.

GROUNDING

Shock hazard. Failure to properly ground the generator

can result in electric shock.

NOTICE

Only use grounded 3-prong extension cords, tools, and

appliances, or double-insulated tools and appliances.

The generator neutral is bonded to the frame. There is a

permanent conductor between the generator (stator wire)

and the frame. If this generator will be used only with cord

and plug equipment connected to the receptacles mounted

on the generator, National Electric Code does not require

that the unit be grounded. However, other methods of

using the generator may require grounding to reduce the

risk of shock or electrocution.

Before using the ground terminal, consult a qualied

electrician, electrical inspector, or local agency having

jurisdiction for local codes or ordinances that apply to the

intended use of the generator.

DISCONNECTING THE BONDED NEUTRAL

Removing the bonded neutral disables the GFCI protection

from the 5-20R receptacles. The bonded neutral should

only be removed under specic circumstances. Consult a

qualied electrician to determine if your situation requires

disconnecting the bonded neutral.

1. Remove the alternator cover.

OPERATION

GENERATOR CAPACITY

NOTICE

Do not overload the generator’s capacity. Exceeding the

generator’s wattage/amperage capacity can damage

the generator and/or electrical devices connected to it.

Make sure the generator can supply enough continuous

(running) and surge (starting) watts for the items you will

power at the same time.

The total power requirements (Volts x Amps = Watts) of all

appliances connected must be considered. Appliance and

power tool manufacturers usually list rating information

near the model or serial number.

To determine power requirements:

1. Select the items you will power at the same time.

2. Total the continuous (running) watts of these items. This

is the amount of power the generator must produce

to keep the items running. See the wattage reference

chart on the next page.

3. Estimate how many surge (starting) watts you will need.

Surge wattage is the short burst of power needed to

start electric motor-driven tools or appliances such as a

circular saw or refrigerator. Because not all motors start

at the same time, total surge watts can be estimated by

adding only the item(s) with the highest additional surge

watts to the total rated watts from step 2.

POWER MANAGEMENT

To prolong the life of the generator and attached devices,

use care when adding electrical loads to the generator.

There should be nothing connected to the generator

outlets before starting the engine. The correct and safe

way to manage generator power is to sequentially add

loads as follows:

1. With nothing connected to the generator, start the

engine as described in this manual.

2. Plug in and turn on the rst load, preferably the largest

load you have.

3. Permit the generator output to stabilize (engine runs

smoothly and attached device operates properly).

4. Plug in and turn on the next load.

5. Again, permit the generator to stabilize.

6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each additional load.

OPERATION

EXTENSION CORDS

Asphyxiation hazard. Extension cords running directly

into the home increase the risk of carbon monoxide

poisoning through any openings. If an extension cord

running directly into your home is used to power indoor

items, there is a risk of carbon monoxide poisoning to

people inside the home. Always use battery-powered

carbon monoxide detector (s) that meet current UL 2034

safety standards when running the generator. Regularly

check the detector (s) battery.

Asphyxiation hazard. When operating the generator with

extension cords, make sure the generator is located in

an open, outdoor area, far away from occupied spaces

with exhaust pointed away.

Fire and electrocution hazard. Never use worn or

damaged extension cords. Damaged or overloaded

extension cords could overheat, arc, and burn resulting

in death or serious injury.

Before connecting an AC appliance or power cord to the

generator:

• Use grounded 3-prong extension cords, tools, and

appliances, or double-insulated tools and appliances.

• Make sure the tool or appliance is in good working

order. Faulty appliances or power cords can create a

potential for electric shock.

• Make sure the electrical rating of the tool or appliance

does not exceed the rated power of the generator or the

receptacle being used.

EXTENSION CORD SIZING

Only use grounded 3-prong extension cords marked for

outdoor use that are rated for the electrical load.

ST SWITCH

The unit is compatible with the ST Switch, purchased

separately. When utility power is on it will provide power (up

to 120V @ 20A) to the appliances plugged into the 5-20R

receptacle on the ST Switch. When utility power is lost the

ST Switch automatically transfers input power from utility

to generator power. When utility power is restored, the

ST Switch transfers input power back to utility. Visit www.
