6. Allow the engine to stabilize.
7. Repeat steps 5-6 for each additional item.
NOTICE
Never exceed the specified capacity when adding loads to
the generator.
Stopping the Engine
Remote Stop
1. Turn off all electrical loads. Never start or stop the
generator with electrical devices turned on.
2. Let the generator run at no-load for several minutes to
stabilize internal temperatures of the engine and generator.
3. Press the “STOP” button on the remote.
Engine will shut off but the battery switch, ignition switch, and
fuel valve will remain in the “ON” position waiting for the next
start instruction.
To completely shut down the generator, make sure the ignition
switch, battery switch, and fuel valve are in the “OFF” position.
NOTICE
Battery power is drawn while the generator is in standby
mode (battery switch ON). If in standby mode for an
extended period, the battery will be completely drained and
the wireless remote and electric start feature will no longer
function.
Manual Stop
1. Turn off and unplug all electrical loads. Never start or stop
the generator with electrical devices plugged in or turned
on.
2. Let the generator run at no-load for several minutes to
stabilize internal temperatures of the engine and generator.
3. Turn the fuel valve to the “OFF” position.
4. Let the engine run until fuel starvation has stopped the
engine. This usually takes a few minutes.
5. Press the ignition switch to the “OFF” position.
6. Press the battery switch to the “OFF” position.
Important:
Always ensure that the fuel valve, the ignition
switch, and the battery switch are in the “OFF” position when
the generator is not in use.
NOTICE
If the engine will not be used for a period of two (2) weeks or
longer, please see the Storage section for proper engine and
fuel storage.
Operation at High Altitude
The density of air at high altitude is lower than at sea level.
Engine power is reduced as the air mass and air-fuel ratio
decrease. Engine power and generator output will be reduced
approximately 3½% for every 1000 ft. of elevation above
sea level. This is a natural trend and cannot be changed by
adjusting the engine. At high altitudes increased exhaust
emissions can also result due to the increased enrichment of
the air fuel ratio. Other high altitude issues can include hard
starting, increased fuel consumption and spark plug fouling.
To alleviate high altitude issues other than the natural power
loss, CPE can provide a high altitude carburetor main jet.
The alternative main jet and installation instructions can be
obtained by contacting our Technical Support Team. Installation
instructions are also available in the Technical Bulletin area of
the CPE website.
The part number and recommended minimum altitude for the
application of the high altitude carburetor main jet is listed in
the table below.
In order to select the correct high altitude main jet it is
necessary to identify the carburetor model. For this purpose,
a code is stamped on the side of the carburetor. Select the
correct high altitude jet part number corresponding to the
carburetor code found on your particular carburetor.

WARNING
Operation using the alternative main jet at elevations lower
than the recommended minimum altitude can damage the
engine. For operation at lower elevations, the originally
supplied standard main jet must be used. Operating the
engine with the wrong engine configuration at a given
altitude may increase its emissions and decrease fuel
efficiency and performance.
