STARTING YOUR GENERATOR (FOR GASOLINE)
Before starting the generator:
1. Verify that the generator is outside on a dry, level surface. Allow at least two feet of clearance on all sides
of the generator.
2. To maximize safety, check that the generator is properly grounded (see "GROUND THE GENERATOR").
3. Check there is sufficient level of oil in the crankcase. Add oil if necessary (see "ADD/CHECK OIL").
4. Make sure there is sufficient level of gasoline in the fuel tank. Add fuel if necessary (see "ADD/CHECK FUEL").
5. Make sure all electrical devices are unplugged from the generator during ignition. Otherwise it will be
difficult for the engine to start.
To start the generator, perform the following steps:
- FOR GASOLINE -
1. Turn the MAIN switch to the "I" position.
Turn the LOW IDLE switch to "O". (Fig. 12)
