4.4 Stopping Your Generator
Note on Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR)
Your generator is equipped with an Automatic Voltage Regulator which ensures a con-
stant voltage and present a waveform similar to what you get from the city power grid.
They are an improvement over basic generators but not as effective at safely running
sensitive electronics as our inverter generators, which can produce almost perfect sine
waveforms.
Therefore powering some sensitive electronics with this generator is not recommended,
since it will risk damage the electrical componentry and can cause a risk of damage.
1. Turn off all of the connected devices. Let your
generator run for a few minutes to cool down.
2. Stop the generator by pressing and holding the
engine switch in the "off" position until the
generator stops.
3. Rotate the fuel lever to the off position (horizontal)
