Grounding the Generator
To avoid electrocution, this generator must be properly grounded prior to use. For instructions see Control Panel
Functions pg.10.
How to Start Engine on Petrol
• Place generator on a level surface. All electrical loads
MUST
be disconnected from generator.
• Turn the ENG. SW. to "ON”
• Turn the fuel cap Air Vent to the “ON” position.
• Turn the fuel selector fully right to "Gas"
• Pull the choke lever out.
• Pull recoil handle (starter cord) slowly until resistance is felt, then pull rapidly.
• Let engine run for several seconds and then gradually as engine warms up, push in the choke lever.
How to Start Engine on Propane
• Place generator on a level surface. All electrical loads
MUST
be disconnected from generator.
• Turn the ENG. SW. to "ON”
• Turn the fuel selector fully left to "LPG"
• Screw the Propane hose to the Panel Propane Connection.
• DO NOT Pull the choke lever out.
• Turn on the propane supply.
• Press the decompression valve button for 3 to 5 seconds.
• Pull recoil handle (starter cord) slowly until resistance is felt, then pull rapidly.
• Let engine run for several seconds before connecting any load.
Note:
To start the generator with the Economy switch in the “ON” position
• Disconnect all electrical loads from generator.
• If ambient temperature is below 32ºF (0ºC) allow 3 minutes for the engine to warm up.
•
The Economy is in
“ON” position, the unit returns to normal operation after the above warm up time.
• Economy switch must be turned to the “OFF” position when using electronic devices that require a large starting
current, such as a compressor.
OPERATION
• To avoid recoil, pull starter cord slowly until resistance is felt, then pull
Pull cord recoils rapidly and pulls arm towards engine faster than you can let go which
could result in injury.
WARNING!
