STEP 3 - CONNECT THE BATTERY
The generator is shipped with the lithium-ion battery’s nega-
tive (-) terminal disconnected to maximize safety. To start the
generator using electric start, the battery must be connected.
To connect the battery:
1. Using a quarter coin or flat-head screwdriver (not included),
open and remove the battery access cover (Fig. 7).
2. Loosen the rubber belts and pull out the battery.
3. Remove the cover from the battery's negative (-) terminal
and connect the black cable to the battery's negative (-) ter-
minal as shown in Fig. 8.
The generator's positive pole has already been connected.
Double check to confirm that the connection is secure.
4. Return the battery into position and use the rubber belts to
fasten the battery.
5. Reinstall and secure the battery access cover.
WARNING: BATTERY GIVES OFF EXPLOSIVE HYDROGEN GAS.
• Keep battery away from sparks, cigarettes, or other sources of flame.
• Do not connect or disconnect battery while generator is running.
• Service or use battery only in well ventilated areas.
WARNING: Battery contains sulfuric acid. Battery acid is poisonous. Tilting the generator with the
battery installed can cause battery acid to spill.
• Wear protective clothing and eye wear when servicing battery.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• If battery acid gets on your skin, wash with water immediately.
• If battery acid gets in your eyes, flush with water for at least 15 minutes and call a doctor immedi-

If battery acid is swallowed, call a doctor immediately. Drink a large amount of water or milk. Then drink
milk of magnesia or vegetable oil.
IMPORTANT: If you do not plan to use the generator for a long period of time, we recommend to DIS-
CONNECT the negative battery cable from the battery to protect the battery from losing charge. After
disconnecting the cable, cover the free end with an insulator such as electrical tape. You may also
choose to use a trickle charger (not included) to maintain battery charge.
