WARNINGS:
In order to reduce changes in voltage, make sure to keep the energy-saving switch in the “full
speed” position (meaning OFF) in situations when your electrical equipment needs a large amount
of power instantaneously, or when the generator is connected to an apparatus that requires a high
amount of power at the same time.
If you are using the 12 V DC output socket, put the energy-saving switch in the OFF position.
Running the engine at full speed with the ECO switch off is suitable for situations where the
negative load of electrical appliances varies greatly.
When the engine is in a non-overload state, you cannot restore the output by pressing the reset key.
Each time you start the engine, the number of effective times you can use the protection cut-off
switch resets to five (5). Once you have used the protection cut-off switch five (5) times, you will
need to restart the engine in order to use the protection cut-off switch again.
PRE-OPERATION CHECKLIST
Make sure first that the generator is placed on a level, horizontal surface and the engine is shut off.
Do not start the engine until you have completed these checks.
Check the Oil Level
1.
Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean cotton cloth.
2.
Re-rotate the dipstick into the crankcase and remove it again.
3.
Check the oil level, and if the level is below the oil gauge indicator line, add more oil.
WARNINGS:
Do not use 2-stroke oil, or detergent-free oil, as these can shorten the life of the engine.
Only use high-quality 4-stroke oil that meets or exceeds the SG, SF classification of the American
Petroleum Association required by American automakers.
Select oil that is a suitable viscosity for the average temperature in your area– refer to the following
table if you are unsure about the SAE viscosity grade.
