WARNING: PERSONAL INJURY
Lead acid batteries produce explosive hydrogen
gas when charging. Keep sparks, fl ames, and
burning cigarettes away from the battery. Ventilate
the area when charging or using the battery in an
enclosed space. Lead acid batteries contain sulfuric
acid, which causes severe burns. If acid contacts
eyes, skin or clothing, fl ush well with water. For con-
tact with eyes, get immediate medical attention.
BATTERY CHARGING
Units equipped with electric start have a small fl y-
wheel charger built into the engine fl ywheel assem-
bly for recharging the starting battery. This fl ywheel
charger generates a small AC current that passes
through a diode assembly to produce a DC charg-
ing current of about 1 to 3 AMPS. This circuit is not
designed to be used as a battery charging circuit to
recharge dead batteries.
OPTIONAL DOLLY KIT
An optional dolly kit is available for this generator.
The dolly kit comes with instructions and parts list.
After installing the dolly kit, fi le the instructions and
parts list in the back of this manual for future refer-
ence.
OIL ALERT SYSTEM
This WINCO Industrial generator is equipped with a
low oil shutdown system. This engine uses an fl oat
switch mounted inside the engine. If the oil level
drops below a certain point the low oil module on the
engine will shut it down. This low oil warning system
will automatically stop the engine before the oil level
reaches a critical danger point. This feature is de-
signed to prevent costly repairs and downtime.
CAUTION: EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
Allowing the engine to shutdown repeatedly on
low oil level may cause excessive wear which can
be cumulative.
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.
