connected electrical equipment. The AC indicator (green) is off and overload indicator (red) lights up, but the engine will not stop running. When overload indicator is on and the generator has no output, please take following counter measures: ① Switch off electrical equipment connected, and shut down the generator. ② Reduce total power of electrical equipment connected to the range of rated output.
(6) ECO-MODE switch (1) "ON" When the ECO-MODE switch is switched to the "ON" position, the generator will control the engine's output based on the load, which will lead to more efficient fuel consumption and reduced noise level. 2) "OFF" When the ECO-MODE switch is set to the "OFF" position, the engine will run at the rated speed, regardless of the connected load.
IV. Before Using the Generator (1)Fuel DANGER • Fuel is flammable and toxic, please read All Safety Instructions carefully before fueling; • Do not overfill the fuel tank • After fueling, confirm that the fuel tank cap has been tightened. AT T E NT IO N • After refueling, clean off gasoline residue with a clean cloth; • Unleaded gasoline must be used, as leaded gasoline can cause serious damage to the internal parts of the generator; • Remove fuel tank cap, and add gasoline up to the red indicating line.
（3）Pre-use inspection WARNING Before starting the generator, check the following components. If replacement parts or repairs are needed, contact your local dealer. Tip: Inspect your generator before every use Pre-operation inspection Fuel • Check fuel level in fuel tank of the generator, add fuel if necessary. Oil • Check oil level of the generator, add oil if necessary; • Check whether there is any oil leaking.
V. Starting up the Generator eration (1) Disconnect all devices from the generator (2) Switch ECO-MODE switch to "OFF" (3) Turn ventilation knob of fuel tank cap to "ON" Choke (4) Turn combination switch control to the valve "CHOKE VALVE" position Tip: If the engine is hot, start the generator in the "RUN" position (5) First gently pull recoil cord handle, until the cable is hooked tight, and then pull with force. (6) Once the generator starts, move the combination switch to the "RUN" position.
VII. Using the Generator (1) Proper conditions to run the generator (2) Run in ambient temperature between 25 ~ 100 °F or -5 ~ 40°C; (3) Ambient humidity below 95%; (4) To ensure proper function of the generator, operate at altitudes up to 1 mile above sea level. If operation is needed at higher altitudes, a carburetor adjustment may be needed.

② Turn ECO-MODE switch to "ON"; ③ Insert the plug into an AC outlet; ④ Make sure that the AC indicator is lit up; ⑤ Switch on the electrical equipment. Tip: Before increasing engine speed, the ECO-MODE switch must be switched to "OFF". If the generator set supplies power to multiple loads or electrical equipment, start from large to small according to the output of each electrical device.
③ Insert grounding body (iron rod with a diameter of 3/16 inch to 1/2 inch) 8 inches below into the ground and lead it out with conductor; ④ Connect the other end of the grounding wire to the led wire of grounding body. Grounding terminal （4）Battery charging Tip: • Rated DC voltage of this generator is 12V; • After the generator is started, connect the battery to the generator; • Before charging, make sure that DC protector has been switched on. ① Start up the generator.
• The connection between the charger cable and battery terminal must be reliable, try to prevent the generator from moving or becoming loose. • Follow all steps in the User's Manual for proper operation. • In the process of charging, if the current exceeds the value of the rated current, the DC protector will shut off. Press the DC protector to "ON" to restart charging. If the DC protector switches off again, stop charging immediately and contact your dealer.
（5）Range of application Before using the generator, make sure that the total load is within the rated load range of the generator, otherwise the generator may be damaged. Tip: • AC and DC can be used at the same time, but total the power amount shall not exceed rated output power. • When the total power exceeds the rated power, the overload indicator will light up. VIII. Service and Maintenance Good maintenance and service is the best guarantee for safe, efficient, and failure-free operation.
