The safe use of this product requires an understanding of the
information on the product and in this operator’s manual as
well as a knowledge of the project you are attempting. Before
use of this product, familiarize yourself with all operating
features and safety rules.
120 V AC RECEPTACLES
Your generator has two single phase, 60 Hz outlets that are
120 Volt AC, 20 Amp receptacles. These can be used for
operating appropriate appliances, electrical lighting, tools,
and motor loads.
AIR FILTER
The air filter helps to limit the amount of dirt and dust drawn
into the unit during operation.
AUTO-CHOKE
This engine is equipped with battery free Auto-Choke
system.
AUTO IDLE BUTTON
The auto idle button is used to control the speed of the
engine and conserve fuel. When auto idle is on and no ap-
pliances are connected to the unit, the engine will idle. If
an appliance is added, the engine speed will increase to
power the item. If the appliance is removed, the engine will
return to idle.
AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF
The generator’s carbon monoxide sensor is designed to
monitor the level of carbon monoxide present during genera-
tor operation. If the unit is positioned incorrectly and carbon
monoxide levels rise to an unsafe level, the CO sensor LED
will flash red and the generator will automatically shut down.
Leave the area immediately and relocate to an open outdoor
area. Ventilate the area thoroughly before occupying again.
Ensure the generator is located in an open, outdoor area at
least 20 feet away from all doors, windows, and occupied
spaces, and point exhaust away from occupied structures
before restarting.
NOTE:
After a shutoff event has occured, the LED will con-
tinue to flash red for up to 20 minutes. Once the generator
is relocated and CO levels are safe, the generator can be
restarted even if the light is still flashing.
CARRY HANDLES
This generator is equipped with a top carry handle for easy
transport. The handle should be used to carry the generator.
EASY START DIAL
The EASY START dial is used when running and stopping

GROUND TERMINAL

sult with a qualified local electrician for grounding require-
ments in your area.
