"Full Choke" and repeatstartinginstructions.
A, CAUTION!
,_Do not overload the generator. Also, do
not overload individual panel receptacles.
These outlets are protected against overload
with push=to=reset=type circuit breakers, if
amperage rating of any circuit breaker is
exceeded, that breaker opens and electrical
output to that receptacle is lost. Read "Don't
Overload the Generator" carefully.
2.10STOPPINGTHEENGINE
1. Shut off all loads, then unplug the electrical loads from
generatorpanel receptacles.Never start or stop the engine
with electricaldevicespluggedin andturned on.
2. Let enginerun at no-load for severalminutes to stabilizethe
internaltemperaturesof engineand generator.
3. Move Run/Stopswitch to "Off" position.
4. Closefuelvalve.
2.11LOW01LPRESSURESHUTDOWNSYSTEM
Theengineis equippedwith a low oil pressuresensor that shuts
downthe engineautomaticallywhentheoil pressuredrops below
5 psi. A delay built into the low oil shutdown system allows oil
pressureto build during starting. The delay allows the engineto
run for about10 secondsbeforesensingoil pressure.If theengine
shutsdown by itselfandthe fueltank hasenoughgasoline,check
engineoil level.
2.1I.IRESTARTING
If trying to restart the engine within 10 seconds after a low oil
pressureshut down, theenginemay NOTstart. Thesystem needs
5 to 10 secondsto reset.
If the engine is restartedafter such a shutdown and the low oil
pressure has not been corrected (i.e. adding oil), the enginewill
run for about10 seconds as describedabove andthen stop.
