Battery Charging
The battery powers the starter motor and control module. This portable generator is equipped
with an automatic battery charging circuit. The battery will receive charging voltage only when
the engine is running. The battery will maintain a proper charge if the portable generator is used
on a regular basis (about once every two weeks). If it is used less frequently, the battery should
be connected to a trickle charger (not included) or battery maintainer (not included) to keep the
battery properly charged. If the battery is not able to start the engine, it can be started manually
only in the GAS position by pulling the engine recoil cord. If the battery voltage is extremely low,
the charging circuit may not be able to re-charge the battery. In this case, the battery must be
connected to a standard automotive style battery charger for re-charging before it can be used.
