CAUTION: EQUIPMENT DAMAGE

When using these generators to power a home

or construction trailer, the Conserv-R

®

switch

must be left in the off position. Some appliances

in homes and construction trailers have such a

low current draw (less that 5 to 10 watts) they

will not turn the conserver off, resulting in low

voltage being supplied to them. This low voltage

can do permanent damage to these appliances.

INITIAL START UP

The throttle control on these generators is preset

and locked to operate at 3600 RPM (nominal) with

no load speed set at 3690 RPM. Only a trained

service technician should be allowed to adjust this

speed setting.

NOTICE: ENGINE START LOCKOUT

This unit will not start if it is low on oil. The lu-

bricating oil level must be at the

full mark before the

engine will start and run.

BASIC OPERATION

MANUAL STARTING

Refer to the engine manual for additional starting,

operating, and stopping instructions.

1. Check oil level. Refill as needed.

. Turn on the fuel supply by moving the fuel lever

to the “ON” position.

NOTE - There is a second fuel valve under the fuel

tank that is used when removing the tank. This

valve is normally left on.

3. Move the choke lever to the “CLOSED” position.

To restart a warm engine, leave the choke lever

in the “OPEN” position

4 Turn the off/on engine switch to the on position.

5. Pull the starter grip lightly until resistance is felt,

then pull briskly.

6. When the engine starts, open the choke

gradually.

7. The engine should promptly come up to

operating speed.

NOTICE:

Do not allow the starter grip to snap back against

the engine. Return it gently to prevent damage to

the starter.

ELECTRIC STARTING

If the engine is cold and stiff or if the battery is not

fully charged, starting can be made easier by slowly

hand cranking the engine through the compres-

sion stroke before pushing the starter switch. This

permits the starter to gain momentum before the

heavy load of the compression stroke occurs. This

minimizes the drain on the battery and improves the

possibility of starting under such adverse conditions.

Always keep the battery charged, especially during

cold weather operation.

1. Check oil level, refill as needed.

Before operating the engine for the first time, please review the
SAFETY INFORMATION section on page and the BEFORE
OPERATION CHECKS on page .

Review the instructions provided with the equipment powered by
this engine for any safety precautions that should be observed
with engine startup, shutdown or operation.

Carbon monoxide gas is toxic. Breathing it can cause
unconsciousness and even kill you.

Avoid any areas or actions that expose you to carbon
monoxide.

Move the fuel valve lever to the ON position.

To start a cold engine, move the choke lever or choke rod
(applicable types) to the CLOSED position.

Move the throttle lever away from the MIN. position, about 1/3
of the way toward the MAX. position.

Some engine applications use a remote-mounted choke control
rather than the engine-mounted choke lever shown here. Refer
to the instructions provided by the equipment manufacturer.

To restart a warm engine, leave the choke lever or choke rod in
the OPEN position.

Some engine applications use a remote-mounted throttle control
rather than the engine-mounted throttle lever shown here. Refer to
the instructions provided by the equipment manufacturer.

Turn the engine switch to the ON position.
