Assembly

 

Your generator requires some assembly. 

This unit ships from our factory without oil. 
It must be properly serviced with fuel and oil 

before operation. 
 

If you have any questions regarding the 

assembly of your generator, call our help 
line at 1-877-338-0999. Please have your 

serial number and model number available. 

 

Remove the Generator from 
the Shipping Carton 

1.

 

Set the shipping carton on a solid, flat 
surface. 

2.

 

Remove everything from the carton 

except the generator. 

3.

 

Carefully cut each corner of the box 

from top to bottom. Fold each side flat 
on the ground to provide a surface area  

Install the Spark Arrester 

Insert the spark arrester screen into the 
muffler outlet. Secure the spark arrester by 

placing the cover plate over the end of the 

screen, with the lettering facing outward.  
 

 

 

Secure the cover plate with the two screws 
and lock washers provided with the spark 

arrester kit. 

Add Engine Oil 

 CAUTION 

DO NOT attempt to crank or start the engine 
before it has been properly filled with the 
recommended type and amount of oil. Damage 
to the generator as a result of failure to follow 
these instructions will void your warranty. 
 

1.

 

Place the generator on a flat, level 

surface. 

2.

 

Remove oil fill cap/dipstick to add oil. 

 

 

 

3.

 

Add 0.63 qt (0.6 L) of oil and replace oil 
fill cap/dipstick. 

4.

 

Check engine oil level daily and add as 

needed. 

CAUTION 

The engine is equipped with a low-oil-shutoff and 
the generator will stop when the oil level in the 
crankcase falls below the threshold level. 
 

 

  NOTE 

Check oil often during the break-in period. Refer 
to the Maintenance section for recommended 
service intervals. 
 

 

  NOTE 

The generator rotor has a sealed, pre-lubricated 
ball bearing that requires no additional lubrication 
for the life of the bearing.
