WARNING ENGINE AND MUFFLER MAY BE HOT Contact with muffler area can result in serious burns. Exhaust heat/gases can ignite combustibles, structures or damage fuel tank causing a fire. ■ DO NOT touch hot parts and AVOID hot exhaust gases. ■ Allow equipment to cool before touching. U.S.
CAUTION Improper treatment of generator can damage it and shorten its life. To prevent surging that may possibly damage equipment, do not allow engine to run out of fuel when electrical loads are applied. Do not stick anything through ventilating slots, even when the generator is not operating. This can damage the generator or cause personal injury. The generator will do a better and safer job and give you much better service if it is used at the rate for which it was designed.
TOTAL WATTAGE, VOLTAGE AND INSTALLATION Total Wattage In order to prevent overloading and possible damage to your generator it is necessary to know the total wattage of the connected load. To determine which tools and/or appliances your generator will run follow these steps: 1. Determine if you want to run one item or multiple items simultaneously. 2. Check wattage requirements for the items you will be running by referring to the load’s nameplate or by calculating it (multiply amps x volts = watts). 3.
preventing backfeed into the power utility's electrical system. WARNING To avoid backfeeding into utility systems, isolation of the residence electrical system is required. Before temporary connection of a generator to the residence electrical system turn off the main switch. Before making permanent connections a double throw transfer switch must be installed. To avoid electrocution or property damage, only a trained electrician should connect generator to residence electrical system.

120V, 20 Ampere GFCI Duplex Receptacle(optional) If your generator comes with GFCI duplex receptacle, please follow below step: After starting the engine, check the GFCI for proper functioning by the following test procedure. ■ Push TEST button, The RESET button will pop out. Power is now off at the outlets protected by the GFCI, indicating that the device is functioning properly. ■ If TRIP does not appear when testing, do not use the generator. Call a qualified electrician.
Ground Terminal (15) Your generator needed to be properly connected to an appropriate earth ground to help prevent electric shock. A ground terminal connected to the frame of the generator has been provided for this purpose. Connecting a length of heavy gauge (12 AWG min.) copper wire between the generator Ground Terminal and a copper rod driven into the ground should provide a GROUND TERMINAL LOCATION: suitable ground connection.

BEFORE OPERATION Check Engine Oil WARNING DO NOT attempt to start this engine without filling the crank case with the proper amount and type of oil. Your generator has been shipped from the factory without oil in the crankcase. Operating the unit without oil can damage the engine. Use class SE oil or a higher grade according to the table below. SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40 is recommended for general, all temperature use.
Check Engine Fuel WARNING DO NOT refuel while smoking or near open flame or other such potential fire hazards. Otherwise fire accident may occur. - Do not refill tank while engine is running or hot. - Close fuel cock before refueling with fuel. - Be careful not to admit dust, dirt, water or other foreign objects into fuel. - Wipe off spilt fuel thoroughly before starting engine. - Keep open flames away. Fill the tank with clean, fresh unleaded automotive gasoline - Check fuel level.
OPERATING THE GENERATOR Start the Generator 1. Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator 2. Set the circuit breaker to the “OFF” position. 3. Open the fuel shut off valve 4. Set the engine stop switch to the “ON” position. 5. Adjust choke lever Set the choke lever to “Choke” positon. Not necessary if the engine is warm 6. Pull the starter handle slowly until resistance is felt. This is the “compression” point.
7. As the engine warms up, readjust the choke lever to “OPEN” postion 8. Connect the load CAUTION When applying a load, do not exceed the maximum wattage rating of the generator when using one or more receptacles. Also, do not exceed the amperage rating of any one receptacle. Apply load only after generator is running. Voltage is regulated via CAUTION the engine speed adjusted at the Do not apply heavy electrical load during break-in factory for correct output.
MAINTENANCE 1. Maintenance Schedule ITEM REMARKS Spark Plug Engine Oil INITIAL EVERY EVERY Before Operation 25HR 50HR 100HR Check condition adjust gap and clean. Replace if ● necessary Check oil level ● Replace ● Air Filter Clean, replace if necessary Fuel Filter Clean and adjust. Replace if necessary Fuel Hose DAILY ● ● Check fuel hose for crack or damage. Replace if ● necessary Check for leakage. Retighten or Exhaust replace gasket if necessary System Check muffler screen.
c. Clean the oil on the panel. Dispose of used oil in local authority disposal site. Clean Spark Plug a. If the plug is contaminated with carbon, remove it using a plug cleaner and wire brush. b.

Unscrew the air filter cover. b. Remove filter element and wash well in solvent. c.
STORAGE Besides drain fuel from fuel tank, the following procedures should be followed prior to storage of your petrol water pump for periods of 3 months or longer. 1. Turn fuel cock to “OPEN” position. 2. Loosen the drain screw on the side of the carburetor float chamber, and drain the fuel completely. NOTE 1) There are two screws on carburetor. The vertical one is the screw to hold the carburetor float chamber; the other one on the side of the carburetor float chamber is the drain screw.
TROUBLE SHOOTING NOTICE If your generator experiences a low engine oil condition, the engine will automatically shut off. Please check the oil first if you cannot start the generator. Condition Cause Insufficient compression Corrective Action Loose spark plug Tighten plug properly Loose cylinder head bolt Tighten bolt properly Damaged gasket Replace gasket 1. Insufficient pulling speed for Pull rope sharply No fuel starting rope supplied to 2.
- Engine oil is to 5W-30 4-stroke formulation (low temperature oil) instead of 10W-30 oil. - Pull the starter cord briskly 3 times, and then wait 15 seconds if the engine does not start. The delay of 15-seconds allows excessive fuel in the spark plug to vaporize. Failure to delay for 15-seconds pulling more than 3-times at one time may cause the spark plug to become flooded. If the spark plug becomes saturated with fuel, the engine will not start.
