OPERATION
HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION
Engine power is reduced the higher you operate above sea
level. Output will be reduced approximately 3.5% for every
1000 feet of increased altitude from sea level.
High altitude adjustment is required for operation at altitudes
over 5,000 ft. (1524 m). Operation without this adjustment
will cause decreased performance, increased fuel consump-
tion, and increased emissions.
NOTICE
DO NOT operate the generator at alti-
tudes below 2,000 ft. (762 m) with the high altitude kit
installed. Engine damage may occur.

BREAK-IN PERIOD
For proper break-in, do not exceed 50% of the rated running
watts during the first five hours of operation.
Use supplied oil until first recommend oil change. Do not
use full synthetic oil during break in period. Full synthetic oil
may prevent proper breaking and seating of the piston rings.
Vary the load occasionally to allow stator windings to heat
and cool and help seat the piston rings.
BEFORE STARTING THE GENERATOR
Verify that:
l The generator is placed in a safe, appropriate location.
l The generator is on a dry, flat, and level surface.
l Oil and fuel levels are within safe operating range.
l All loads are disconnected from the control panel
receptacles.
l The ECO mode switch is in the OFF position.
DANGER
NOT move or tip the generator during operation.
STARTING THE GENERATOR
See Figures 10 - 11.
l Place the generator in a safe, appropriate location.
l Unplug all loads.
l Ensure the ECO mode switch is in the OFF position.
l Check oil and fuel levels. If needed, add fuel or oil as
described earlier.
l Turn the vent knob on the fuel cap to the ON position.
l For cold starting, turn the engine/fuel control switch to
the CHOKE position.
NOTE: If you are re-starting the generator, turn engine/
fuel control switch to the RUN position.
l Firmly grasp and pull the recoil handle slowly until you
feel increased resistance. At this point, pull the recoil
handle rapidly away from the generator until the engine
starts.

Fire and explosion hazard. DO
NOTE: Gently return the recoil handle into place after
starting the unit. Do not let it snap back against the unit.
During initial starting, additional pulls may be required
to prime the fuel pump.
l After the engine starts turn the engine/fuel control switch
to the RUN position.
l When the OUTPUT READY LED illuminates, you can
safely connect loads to the control panel receptacles.
