GENERATOR COMPONENTS Observe the locations and functions of the various components and controls of this generator. To prevent electrical shock from faulty appliances, the generator should be grounded. Connect a length of heavy wire between the ground terminal and the ground source. Consult with a qualified electrician to ensure compliance with local electrical codes. ATTENTION: The Air-fuel Mixer is not adjustable.
PREPARING THE GENERATOR FOR USE Using this Generator for the First-Time STOP! The following section describes the required steps for preparing this generator for the first use. Failure to correctly perform these steps can damage this generator and/or shorten its life. If still unsure about how to perform any of these steps after reading this section, call 1-866-460-9436 Monday - Friday, 8 AM - 4 PM Central Time for customer service.
Step 2 – Connect Fuel Add Unleaded gasoline only with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Maximum Capacity: 1.0 Gallons Pre-Operation Check List Step 1 Check that the gas supply source is in good condition. Check that the gas inlet connection is tightly fixed and not leaking. Step 2 CHOKE VALVE GRIP is at CHOKE (CLOSE) position. The generator may be hard to start if CHOKE VALVE GRIP is at RUN (OPEN) position. Step 3 Check if engine oil is full. Step 4 Make sure GROUND TERMINAL is properly grounded.
Step 3 - Ground the Generator Failure to properly ground this generator can result in electrocution. Ground this generator by tightening the grounding nut against a grounding wire as illustrated in Figure 3. A No. 12 AWG (American Wire Gauge) stranded copper wire is generally an acceptable grounding wire. The other end of this grounding wire should be connected to a copper or brass grounding rod that is driven into the earth. Grounding codes can vary by location.

USING THE GENERATOR After the engine has been running for several minutes, electrical devices may be connected to this generator. AC Usage Electrical devices running on AC current may be connected according to their wattage requirements. The rated (running) and surge wattage: Model GEN2000I Rated (Running) Wattage Model GEN2000I Surge Wattage 1800 2200 The rated (running) wattage corresponds to the maximum wattage a generator can output on a continuous basis.
Connect electrical devices to this generator according to the following procedure: 1. Allow the engine to run for several minutes after it has been started. 2. Confirm that the electrical device is switched off prior to plugging it into this generator. Connect only electrical devices that are in good working order. Faulty devices or power cords present the risk of electrical shock. Immediately turn off and disconnect any device that commences to operate abnormally, sluggish or abruptly stops.
AC PARALLEL TERMINALS The parallel port terminals are used with a parallel kit (sold separately). It will allow two generators to be linked to increase output. The black and white wire connections are non-polarized and can be inserted into either the left or right ports. NOTE: Do not disconnect cables while the generator is running. The generator or the load may be damaged. NOTE: Only connect two identical Inverter Generators together using a Parallel Kit. Do not pair more than 2 generators.
DC Usage The DC outlet is only for recharging 12 Volt automotive-type batteries. Do not connect any other device to this outlet. Use this generator only for recharging 12 Volt batteries. NEVER attempt to jumpstart a car with this generator. Failing to use the correct procedure can cause a battery to explode, seriously injuring anyone nearby. Keep heat, sparks, flame and smoking materials away from the battery. To connect 12 Volt batteries to the DC outlet: 1.
MAINTENANCE/CARE Proper routine maintenance of this generator is essential for safe, economical, and trouble-free operation. It will help prolong the life of this generator as well as help reduce air pollution. Perform maintenance checks and procedures according to the schedule in Figure 10. STOP! If you have questions about maintenance procedures described in this manual, call 1-866-460-9436 , Monday - Friday, 8 AM - 4 PM Central Time.
Figure 11 - Checking the Oil Changing/Adding Oil The oil level in this generator should be checked before each use. When the oil level is low, add oil until the level is sufficient to operate this generator. To drain the oil from this generator: The oil should be changed after the first 20 hours of operation. The oil should then be changed every 6 months, or for every 100 hours of use time, or when it has become contaminated with water and/or dirt.
