STARTING YOUR GENERATOR
STARTING THE GENERATOR (LPG)
1. Place the generator outside on a dry, level surface. Allow at least two feet of clearance on all sides of the generator.
2. Check there is sufficient level of oil in the crankcase. Add oil if necessary (refer to “ADD / CHECK OIL” on page
12).
3. Make sure that the LPG regulator hose is properly connected to the LPG tank and the inlet on the generator (refer
to “FUEL OPTION B: LIQUID PETROLEUM GAS (LPG)” on page 15).
4. To maximize safety, make sure the generator is properly grounded (refer to “GROUND THE GENERATOR” on page
16).
5. Make sure all electrical devices are unplugged from the generator during ignition. Otherwise it will be difficult for
the engine to start.
6. Turn the ECO-MODE switch to “OFF” during starting (Fig. 8 - 1).
7. Turn the 4-in-1 switch (Fig. 9 - 1) to the “CHOKE” position.
8. Gently pull the recoil starter handle (Fig. 10) 3 - 5 times to prime the engine.
9. Turn the 4-in-1 switch (Fig. 9 - 1) to the “RUN” position.
10. Quickly pull the recoil starter handle to start the engine. Return the cord gently into the recoil starter. Never allow
the cord to snap back.
11. 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.
