SPARK ARRESTOR RELATED:
Clean and replace Spark Arrestor.
ELECTRIC OR REMOTE START RELATED:
1. No battery or defective battery installed.
2. Engine Start/Stop Switch flashes
red – Battery is low.
3. Electric start fuse (5 A) is blown.
4. Stop/Start Remote Control is
not paired with Generator.
5. Generator not picking up Stop/Start
Remote Control signal consistently.
6. Engine not restarting remotely
after CO shutdown event.
ELECTRIC OR REMOTE START RELATED:
1. Install a new battery.
2. Charge battery with Battery Charger / Maintainer or
start Generator manually and allow to run for 5 hours.
3. Replace fuse with similar size fuse.
4. Pair Remote Control to Generator. Refer to page 21.
5. Replace the Remote Control battery; press on Remote
Button longer; stay within operational range of Remote.
6. After a CO shutdown event, the remote start
capability will be disabled until the Engine
has been first restarted non-remotely.
Engine misfires 1. Spark plug cap loose.
2. Incorrect spark plug gap or
damaged spark plug.
3. Defective spark plug cap.
4. Old or low quality gasoline.
5. Incorrect compression.
1. Check cap and wire connections.
2. Re-gap or replace spark plug.
3. Replace spark plug cap.
4. Use only fresh 87+ octane stabilizer-treated
unleaded gasoline.
Do not use gasoline with more than
10% ethanol (E15, E20, E85, etc.).
5. Diagnose and repair compression. Use Engine will
not start: COMPRESSION RELATED section.
Engine stops suddenly 1. Carbon Monoxide level high. Red light
on Carbon Monoxide Sensor illuminates.
2. CO Sensor Alarm flashes yellow
continually shortly after starting.
3. CO Sensor Alarm flashes yellow
continually after longer period of operation.
4. Low oil shutdown.
5. Fuel tank empty or full of impure or low
quality gasoline.
6. Defective fuel tank cap creating
vacuum, preventing fuel flow.
7. Faulty magneto.
8. Disconnected or improperly
connected spark plug cap.
9. Unintentional shutdown signal sent
from Stop/Start Remote Control.
10. If using Natural Gas: inadequate
fuel pressure / flow.
11. If using LPG / Propane: LPG tank
empty or LPG tank too small.
1. Leave area immediately and allow area to ventilate
thoroughly. Only operate generator outside.
2. Carbon monoxide sensor malfunction.
Sensor needs service. Call 1-888-866-5797 as
soon as possible. Do not use the Generator
until the sensor is working properly.
3. Make sure to operate Generator within
rated ambient temperature; maintain

4. Fill engine oil to proper level. Check
engine oil before EVERY use.
5. Fill fuel tank with fresh 87+ octane stabilizer treated
unleaded gasoline.
Do not use gasoline with more than 10%
ethanol (E15, E20, E85, etc.).
6. Test / replace fuel tank cap.
7. Have qualified technician service magneto.
8. Secure spark plug cap.
9. Store the Remote Control in a safe
location and away from children.
10. Ensure NG fuel pressure and flow meet Generator
requirements. Refer to Specifications on page 3.
11. Replace empty LPG tank with full tank. Replace
small LPG tank with correct tank size. Refer
to Specifications on page 3.
Engine stops when
under heavy load
1. Dirty air filter
