6. If the engine has started, slowly return the choke lever
(Figure 13 ) to the “OPEN” position. If the engine has not
started repeat steps 1 through 6.
7. Before the generator is placed into operation, run the engine
for 3-5 minutes. Check for abnormal smells, fuel leaks, and
noises that would associate with lose components.
8. Place the idle control switch (Figure 13) in the "OFF"
(down) position. This will allow the engine speed to run
at speed about 3600 RPM's
10. If desired, verify with a voltmeter (Figure16) that 120
VAC is present at the GFCI duplex receptacle.

NOTE
Placing the idle control switch in
the RUN position (Figure 14) allows
the engine to operate at a maximum
speed of about 3600 RPM's. When
the idle control switch is placed in
the up position (ON), the generator
will run at idle speed (2200 RPM's) until a load is applied, at that
time the engine speed will increase to 3600 RPM's as long as
the load is being applied. When the load is not in use, the engine
speed will drop back to the idle mode after about 3 seconds.
