•
Do not use a pipe carrying combustible material as the
ground source.
LUBRICATION
DO NOT attempt to start this engine without filling the crank
case with the proper amount and type of oil. (See the accompanying
engine manual for this information.) Your generator has been shipped
from the factory without oil in the crankcase. Operating the unit
without oil can damage the engine.
Fill the engine with oil according to the engine manual. For
units with a dipstick, fill oil to the proper level. Units without a
dipstick should be filled to the top of the opening of the oil fill.
LOW OIL SENSOR
Some units are equipped with a low oil sensor. If the oil level
becomes lower than required, the sensor will activate a warning
device or stop the engine. (See the accompanying engine manual for
more information.)
If generator shuts off and the oil level is within specifications,
check to see if generator is sitting at an angle that forces oil to shift.
Place on an even surface to correct this. If engine fails to start, the oil
level may not be sufficient to deactivate low oil level switch. Make
sure the sump is completely full of oil.
FUEL
Fill the tank with clean, fresh unleaded automotive gasoline.
Regular grade gasoline may be used provided a high octane rating is
obtained (at least 85 pump octane). We recommend always using a
fuel additive, such as Coleman® Powermate® Generator Fuel
Additive, or an equivalent. A fuel additive will minimize the
formulation of fuel gum deposits during storage. The additive can be
added to the gasoline in the fuel tank, or into the gasoline in a storage
container.
•
Do not overfill the tank. Keep maximum fuel level
1/4 inch below the top of the fuel tank. This will allow
expansion in hot weather and prevent overflow.
CORD-SET WIRING
If your generator is supplied with a 4-wire 120/240V twistlock
receptacle, ground and neutral may be connected together at the load
side.

STARTING THE UNIT
•
Gasoline is very dangerous.
Serious injury or death may result from fire caused by
gasoline contacting hot surfaces.
1. Do not fill fuel tank with engine running.
2. Do not spill fuel while refilling tank.
3. Do not mix oil with gasoline.
4. Follow all instructions and warnings in the engine
manual.
PRE-START PREPARATION
Before starting the generator, check for loose or missing parts and
for any damage which may have occurred during shipment.
•
This generator must not be operated without all
factory installed heat shields in place. Failure to
comply may cause the fuel tank to overheat and result
in personal injury from fire.
STARTING THE ENGINE
1.
Check oil level and fuel.
2.
Disconnect all electrical loads from the unit.
3.
Open fuel shut off valve.
4.
Adjust choke as necessary.
5.
Set the engine switch to the "ON" position.
6.
Pull on the starter rope with fast steady pull. As the engine
warms up, readjust the choke. On electric start models,
turn the key switch to "START". Release key switch after
the engine starts.
•
Provide adequate ventilation for toxic exhaust gases
and cooling air flow.
•
Do not start or run the generator in an enclosed area,
even if door or windows are open.
•
Engines give off carbon monoxide, an odorless,
colorless, poison gas.
•
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause nausea, fainting
or death.
•
Allow generator to run at no load for five minutes
upon each initial start-up to permit engine and
generator to stabilize.
