2.3.VAC, 20 AMP, DUPLEX RECEPTACLE
This is a 120 Volt outlet protected against overload by a 20 Amp push-to-reset circuit breaker (Figure 6). Use each socket to power 120 Volt AC, single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to a combined 2400 watts (2.4 kW) or 20 Amps of current. Use only high quality, well-insulated, 3-wire grounded cord sets rated for 125 Volts at 20 Amps (or greater). Keep extension cords as short as possible, preferably less than 15 feet long, to prevent voltage drop and possible overheating of wires.
2.4 HOW TO USE THE GENERATOR
If there are any problems operating the generator, please call the generator helpline at 1-888-436-3722.
2.4.1 GROUNDING THE GENERATOR
The National Electrical Code requires that the frame and external electrically conductive parts of this generator be properly connected to an approved earth ground (Figure 8). Local electrical codes may also require proper grounding of the unit. For that purpose, connecting a No. 10 AWG (American Wire Gauge) stranded copper wire to the grounding lug and to an earth-driven copper or brass grounding rod (electrode) provides adequate protection against electrical shock. However, local codes may vary widely. Consult with a local electrician for grounding requirements in the area.
Figure 6 - 120 Volt AC, 20 Amp, Duplex Receptacle
Figure 8 - Grounding the Generator
2.3.2 120/240 VAC, 30 AMP RECEPTACLE
Use a NEMA L14-30 plug with this receptacle (rotate to lock/unlock). Connect a suitable 4-wire grounded cord set to the plug and to the desired load. The cord set should be rated for 250 Volts AC at 30 Amps (or greater) (Figure 7).
Proper grounding of the generator will help prevent electrical shock in the event of a ground fault condition in the generator or in connected electrical devices. Proper grounding also helps dissipate static electricity, which often builds up in ungrounded devices.
Figure 7 - 120/240 VAC, 30 Amp Receptacle
2.4.2 CONNECTING ELECTRICAL LOADS
DO NOT connect 240 Volt loads to 120 Volt receptacles. DO NOT connect 3-phase loads to the generator. DO NOT connect 50 Hz loads to the generator. Let engine stabilize and warm up for a few minutes after starting. Plug in and turn on the desired 120 or 240 Volt AC, single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads. Add up the rated watts (or amps) of all loads to be connected at one time. This total should not be greater than (a) the rated wattage/amperage capacity of the generator or (b) circuit breaker rating of the receptacle supplying the power. See "Don't Overload the Generator".
Use this receptacle to operate 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 3600 watts (3.6 kW) of power at 30 Amps or 240 Volt AC, 60 Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 7200 watts (7.2 kW) of power at 30 Amps. The outlet is protected by two 25 Amp (5.0/5.5kW) or two 30 Amp (6.5kW) push-to-reset circuit breakers.

2.7 BEFORE STARTING THE GENERATOR
Prior to operating the generator, engine oil and gasoline will need to be added, as follows:

2.7.1 ADDING ENGINE OIL

All oil should meet minimum American Petroleum Institute (API) Service Class SJ, SL or better. Use no special additives. Select the oil's viscosity grade according to the expected operating temperature (also see chart). Above 40 F, use SAE 30 Below 40 F and down to 10 F, use 10W-30 Below 10 F, use synthetic 5W-30

SAE 30

10W-30
Sy nthetic Synthetic 5W-30
to crank or start Any attemptproperly serviced the engine before it has been with the recommended oil may result in an engine failure. Place generator on a level surface. Clean area around oil fill and remove oil fill cap and dipstick. Wipe dipstick clean. Slowly fill engine with oil through the oil fill opening until it reaches the full mark. Stop filling occasionally to check oil level. Be careful not to over fill. Install oil fill cap and finger tighten securely. Check engine oil level before starting each time thereafter.
IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel hose or tank during storage. Alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture, which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. See the "Storage" section. Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank as permanent damage may occur.

2.8 TO START THE ENGINE

Never start or stop engine with electrical devices plugged into the receptacles AND
devices turned on. Unplug all electrical loads from the unit's receptacles before starting the engine. Make sure the unit is in a level position. OPEN the Fuel Shut-off Valve (Figures 10 and 11).

2.7.2 ADDING GASOLINE

Never fill fuel tank indoors. Avoid spilling gasoline on hot engine. Allow engine/unit to cool entirely before adding fuel. Never fill fuel tank when engine is running or hot. DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke when filling the fuel tank. Gasoline is highly flammable and its vapors are explosive.
Figure 10 - Fuel Shut-off Valve
Do not overfill the fuel tank. Always leave room for fuel expansion. If the fuel tank is over-filled, fuel can over flow onto hot engine and cause an explosion. Use regular UNLEADED gasoline with the generator engine. Do not use any gasoline with more than 10% added ethanol. Do not use E85 gasoline. Do not mix oil with gasoline. Clean area around fuel fill cap, remove cap. Slowly add unleaded regular gasoline to fuel tank. Fill to bottom of screen filter. Be careful not to overfill (Figure 9). Install fuel cap and wipe up any spilled gasoline.

2.10 LOW OIL LEVEL SHUTDOWN SYSTEM
The engine is equipped with a low oil level sensor that shuts down the engine automatically when the oil level drops below a specified level. If the engine shuts down by itself and the fuel tank has enough gasoline, check engine oil level.

3.3 GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
The warranty of the generator does not cover items that have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To receive full value from the warranty, the operator must maintain the generator as instructed in this manual. Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to properly maintain the generator. All adjustments in the Maintenance section of this manual should be made at least once each season. Follow the requirements in the "Maintenance Schedule". NOTE: Once a year replace the spark plug and replace the air filter. A new spark plug and clean air filter assure proper fuel-air mixture and help the engine run better and last longer.

3.3.4 CHECKING OIL LEVEL

See the Before Starting the Generator section for information on checking the oil level. The oil level should be checked before each use, or at least every eight hours of operation. Keep the oil level maintained.

3.3.5 CHANGING THE OIL

Change the oil after every 100 hours. If running this unit under dirty or dusty conditions, or in extremely hot weather, change the oil more often.
may cause Hot oil draining oil.burns. Allow engine to cool before Avoid prolonged or repeated skin exposure with used oil. Thoroughly wash exposed areas with soap. NOTE: Whenever possible, run engine for approximately five (5) minutes to get the engine oil hot. This will aid in draining the oil. Use the following instructions to change the oil while the engine is still warm: Clean area around oil drain plug. Remove oil drain plug from engine and oil fill plug to drain oil completely into a suitable container. When oil has completely drained, install oil drain plug and tighten securely. Fill oil sump with recommended oil. (See Before Starting the Generator for oil recommendations). Wipe up any spilled oil. Dispose of used oil at a proper collection center.
3.3.1 GENERATOR MAINTENANCE
Generator maintenance consists of keeping the unit clean and dry. Operate and store the unit in a clean dry environment where it will not be exposed to excessive dust, dirt, moisture or any corrosive vapors. Cooling air slots in the generator must not become clogged with snow, leaves, or any other foreign material. Check the cleanliness of the generator frequently and clean when dust, dirt, oil, moisture or other foreign substances are visible on its exterior surface.

the air Never insert any object or tool throughrunning. cooling slots, even if the engine is not NOTE: DO NOT use a garden hose to clean generator. Water can enter the engine fuel system and cause problems. In addition, if water enters the generator through cooling air slots, some water will be retained in voids and crevices of the rotor and stator winding insulation. Water and dirt buildup on the generator internal windings will eventually decrease the insulation resistance of these windings.
3.3.6 REPLACING THE SPARK PLUG
Use Champion RN9YC spark plug or equivalent. Replace the plug once each year. This will help the engine start easier and run better. 1. Stop the engine and pull the spark plug wire off of the spark plug. 2. Clean the area around the spark plug and remove it from the cylinder head. 3. Set the spark plug's gap to 0.70-0.80 mm (0.028-0.031 in.). Install the correctly gapped spark plug into the cylinder head (Figure 13).
3.3.2 TO CLEAN THE GENERATOR
Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean. A soft, bristle brush may be used to loosen caked on dirt, oil, etc. A vacuum cleaner may be used to pick up loose dirt and debris. Low pressure air (not to exceed 25 psi) may be used to blow away dirt. Inspect cooling air slots and openings on the generator. These openings must be kept clean and unobstructed.

generator, always When working on thecable from battery. Also disconnect negative disconnect spark plug wires from spark plug and keep wire away from spark plug.

3.4 SERVICE AIR FILTER

The engine will not run properly and may be damaged if using a dirty air filter. Clean the air filter every 200 hours or once a year (Figure 14). Clean or replace more often if operating under dusty conditions. Remove air filter cover. Wash in soapy water. Squeeze filter dry in clean cloth (DO NOT TWIST). Clean air filter cover before re-installing it. NOTE: To order a new air filter, please contact the nearest authorized service center at 1-888-436-3722.

3.7 LONG TERM STORAGE

It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel hose or tank during storage. Also, experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture, which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days or longer, as follows: Remove all gasoline from the fuel tank.

Drain fuel into approved container outdoors, away from open flame. Be sure engine is cool. Do not smoke. Start and run engine until engine stops from lack of fuel. While engine is still warm, drain oil from crankcase. Refill with recommended grade. Remove spark plugs and pour about 1/2 ounce (15 ml) of engine oil into the cylinders. Cover spark plug hole with rag. Pull the recoil starter a couple times to lubricate the piston rings and cylinder bore.

Figure 14 - Air Filter

Avoid spray from spark plug holes when cranking engine.

Important: If feeling uncomfortable about doing this procedure or the proper tools are not available, please take the generator to the nearest service center to have the valve clearance adjusted. This is a very important step to insure longest life for the engine. Install and tighten spark plugs. Do not connect spark plug wires. Clean the generator outer surfaces. Check that cooling air slots and openings on generator are open and unobstructed. Store the unit in a clean, dry place.

3.8 OTHER STORAGE TIPS

Do not store gasoline from one season to another. Replace the gasoline can if it starts to rust. Rust and/or dirt in the gasoline will cause problems with the carburetor and fuel system. If possible, store the unit indoors and cover it to give protection from dust and dirt. BE SURE TO EMPTY THE FUEL TANK. If it is not practical to empty the fuel tank and the unit is to be stored for some time, use a commercially available fuel stabilizer added to the gasoline to increase the life of the gasoline. Cover the unit with a suitable protective cover that does not retain moisture.

3.6 GENERAL

The generator should be started at least once every seven days and be allowed to run at least 30 minutes. If this cannot be done and the unit must be stored for more than 30 days, use the following information as a guide to prepare it for storage.
NEVER store engine with fuel in tank indoors or in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas where fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer or other gas appliance.
