OPERATION
l Move at least 30 ft. away from refueling area before re-
starting the engine.
NOTICE
Fuel can damage paint and plastic. Use
caution when lling the fuel tank. Damage caused by
spilled fuel is not covered under warranty.
NOTICE
Clean the fuel screen lter of debris be-
fore and after each fueling. Remove the fuel screen
lter by slightly compressing it while removing it from
the fuel tank.
HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION
Engine power is reduced the higher you operate above sea
level. Output will be reduced approximately 3.5% for every
1,000 feet of increased altitude from sea level.
High altitude adjustment is required for operation at altitudes
over 5,000 ft. (1524 m). Operation without this adjustment
will cause decreased performance, increased fuel consump-
tion, and increased emissions.
NOTICE
DO NOT operate the generator at alti-
tudes below 2,000 ft. (762 m) with the high altitude kit
installed. Engine damage may occur.

Use supplied oil until rst recommend oil change. Do not
use full synthetic oil during break in period. Full synthetic oil
may prevent proper breaking and seating of the piston rings.
Vary the load occasionally to allow stator windings to heat
and cool and help seat the piston rings.
BEFORE STARTING THE GENERATOR
Verify that:
l The generator is placed in a safe, appropriate location.
l The generator is on a dry, at, and level surface.
l Oil and fuel levels are within safe operating range.
l All loads are disconnected from the control panel recep-
tacles.
l The ECO mode switch is in the OFF position.
DANGER
Fire and explosion hazard. DO
NOT move or tip the generator during operation.
