STARTING THE GENERATOR
OIL LEVEL SHUTDOWN
The low oil indication light (yellow) will turn on to remind you that the engine oil level is low and need to be refilled.
The generator is equipped with a low oil pressure shutoff that will automatically stop the engine when the oil level is
too low to protect the unit from damage. The oil level of the engine should be checked before each start to ensure
that the engine crankcase contains sufficient lubricant.
PARALLEL OPERATION
The parallel connection feature (Fig. 14 - 1) allows you to connect two
WEN generators to increase the total available electrical power. The
“Parallel Connection Kit” can be purchased from wenproducts.com.
Follow the instructions included with your WEN parallel connection
kit for proper installation and operaion.
STARTING THE GENERATOR (CONTINUED)
12. Slowly push in the choke lever to OPEN the choke valve.
NOTE: If the engine shakes or runs unstably, pull the choke lever
halfway to the HALF open position, and then push it in to the FULL
open position after the engine is running stably.
13. Allow the engine to run for several minutes before attempting to
connect any electrical devices. This allows the generator to stabilize its
speed and temperature.
ECO-MODE SWITCH
This generator is equipped with an Eco-Mode Idle Control Switch (Fig.
13). Engaging the switch automatically adjusts the engine to match the
load. When the electrical load changes, the generator engine will auto-
matically speed up and slow down as needed. This reduces fuel con-
sumption and noise levels.
Keep this switch engaged when the power load requirement is less than
1000W. Do not engage the Eco-Mode Switch when the total load is

more than 1000W. The generator engine must run at full speed to supply power for anything over 1000W.
