4. Turn the start switch (Q) to the CHOKE
position to start the engine. This opens the fuel
valve and allows fuel to flow from the fuel tank
to the carburetor.
a. Turn the start switch (Q) directly to the ON
position if the engine is warm.
5. Pull Start.
a. Pull the recoil starter handle (H) lightly
until you feel resistance.
b. Pull the recoil starter handle briskly as soon as resistance is felt.
c. Do not allow the recoil starter handle to snap back against the engine.
Instead, return the starter grip gently by hand.
6. Turn the start switch to the RUN position once the engine is running.
Occasionally you may hear a light 'spark knock' or 'pinging' (metallic rapping
noise) while operating under heavy loads. This is no cause for concern.
Consider replacing the fuel if the spark knock or pinging continue to occur when the
engine speed is steady under a normal load. If the sounds continue after changing
the fuel, contact Princess Auto Ltd. for a solution or see a qualified technician.
NOTICE! Running the engine with persistent spark knock or pinging can
cause engine damage.
RUNNING THE GENERATOR
1. Make sure the green AC pilot indicator (L) is on.
2. Warm up the generator without load for 3 minutes.
3. Be sure that all appliances are in good working condition before connecting
them to the generator.
4. Attach appliances, one at a time starting with the appliance with the highest
current rating. Most appliance motors require more than their rated
wattage for start-up. Do not exceed the current limit specified for any one
socket. See Wattage Reference Chart.
a. If the attached load is small, turn the ECO switch to the ON
position. For a larger load, or if attaching multiple electronic
devices turn the ECO switch to the OFF position.
