ECO-THROTTLE SWITCH
Pulling the starter grip operates
the recoil starter to crank the
engine for starting.
The Eco-Throttle
system automatically reduces engine speed when
all loads are turned off or disconnected. When appliances are turned
on or reconnected, the engine returns to the proper speed to power
the electrical load.
If high electrical loads are connected simultaneously, turn the Eco-
Throttle switch to the OFF position to reduce voltage changes.
ON
Recommended to minimize
fuel consumption and further
reduce noise levels when a
reduced load or no load is applied
to the generator.
OFF
The Eco-Throttle system
does not operate. Generator
operates at full output.
Do not allow the starter grip to
snap back against the engine.
Return it gently to prevent
damage to the starter.
Do not let the starter rope rub
against the generator body, or
the rope will wear out
prematurely.
