OPERATION
To start the generator using the engine start/stop
button:
l Push and hold the engine START/STOP button for two
seconds.
NOTE: If the engine START/STOP button does not start
the generator, the generator's battery may need to charge.
Start the unit using the recoil handle. The generator's
battery will charge as the unit runs.
To add loads after starting the generator:
l When the generator output stabilizes, you can safely
connect loads to the control panel receptacles.
NOTE: Verify that all devices are turned off before con-
necting them to the generator.
NOTE: Make sure that the wattage requirements for
all connected devices are in line with your generator's
capabilities.
l Connect and start the largest device or appliance.
l Allow the generator output to stabilize. Once stable, the
engine should run smoothly, and the device should function
properly.
l Connect and start the next largest device or appliance.
l Allow the generator output to stabilize.
l Repeat this process for each additional load.
STOPPING THE GENERATOR
See Figures 24 and 27.
l Remove any connected loads from the control panel
receptacles.
l Allow the generator to run at "no load" to reduce and
stabilize engine and alternator temperatures.
l Press and hold the engine START/STOP button or the
stop button on the key fob for one second to stop the
generator.
l Turn the battery switch off.
l Turn the fuel selector switch to the FUEL OFF position.
l Stop the flow of fuel.
• For gasoline, close the fuel valve.
• For propane, close the cylinder valve on the LP gas
cylinder.
• For natural gas, close the valve on the natural gas supply
line.
l Disconnect the propane hose from the LP gas cylinder
and the generator or disconnect the natural gas hose
from the natural gas supply line and the generator.
To stop the unit quickly in an emergency:
l Press and hold the engine START/STOP button or the
stop button on the key fob for one second to stop the
generator.

CIRCUIT BREAKERS
See Figures 28 - 29.
The 20 amp circuit breaker protects devices and equipment
connected to the 120V, 20 amp receptacles from electrical
overload. The 30 amp circuit breaker protects devices and
equipment connected to the 120V, 30 amp receptacles.
The main circuit breaker will automatically switch OFF if the
combined load of the receptacles exceeds the generator's
capacity. If a circuit breaker activates, turn off the connect-
ed device, remove it from the port or outlet, and reset the
circuit breaker.
