STARTING YOUR GENERATOR
Before starting the generator:
1. Verify that the generator is outside on a dry, level surface. Allow at least two feet of clearance on all sides
of the generator.
2. To maximize safety, check that the generator is properly grounded (see “GROUND THE GENERATOR”).
3. Check there is sufficient level of oil in the crankcase. Add oil if necessary (see “ADD/CHECK OIL”).
4. Make sure there is sufficient level of gasoline in the fuel tank. Add fuel if necessary (see “ADD/CHECK FUEL”).
5. Make sure all electrical devices are unplugged from the generator during ignition. Otherwise it will be
difficult for the engine to start.
To start the generator, perform the following steps:
1. Turn the LOW IDLE switch to “OFF”. (Fig. 10)
2. Turn the FUEL switch to the “ON” position
(Fig. 11).

5. When engine starts, push the CHOKE LEVER in
to the “RUN” position (Fig. 14).
3. Pull the CHOKE LEVER out to the “START”
position (Fig. 12).
NOTE:
Skip this if starting the generator with
a warm engine.
4. Turn the ENGINE switch to the “ON” position.
Place one hand on the generator to hold it in
place, and pull on the recoil starter handle
slowly until a slight resistance is felt. Then pull
quickly to start the engine. Return cord gently
into the machine. Never allow the cord to snap
back. (Fig. 13).
