INSTALLATION  
tools, a capacity of up to the generator full rated  
wattage output can be used.  
OUTDOORS:  
Choose a location where the  
generator will not be exposed to rain, snow or direct  
sunlight. Position the generator on secure, level  
ground so it will not tip or slide down a hill. Place the  
generator so that the exhaust fumes will not be  
directed towards people.  
When connecting a resistive-inductive load such  
as a fluorescent or mercury light, transformers or  
inductive coils, a capacity of up to 0.6 times the  
generator’s full rated output can be used.  
Always allow the generator to reach operating  
speed before a load is applied.  
The installation site must be free from water,  
moisture, or dust. All electrical components should be  
protected from excessive moisture or the insulation  
system will deteriorate and result in grounding or  
shorting out the generating system.  
Foreign matters, such as dust, dirt, sand, lint, or  
abrasive materials can cause damage to the generator  
head and engine if allowed into its cooling system.  
NEVER install your generator inside confined  
areas. Inside installation can cause health hazards or  
death.  
STARTING ELECTRIC MOTORS  
Electric motors require much more current (amps)  
to start than to run. Some motors, particularly low cost  
split-phase motors, are very hard to start and require 5  
to 7 times more current to start than to run. Capacitor  
motors are easier to start and usually require 2 to 4  
times as much current to start as to run. Repulsion  
Induction motors are the easiest to start and require  
1.5 to 2.5 times as much to start as to run.  
Most fractional motors take about the same  
amount of current to run them whether they are of  
Repulsion-Induction (RI), Capacitor (Cap), or Split-  
Phase (SP) type. The following chart shows the  
approximate current required to start and run various  
types and sizes of 120 volt 60 cycle electric motors  
under various conditions.  
DANGER Remember, exhaust fumes are  
deadly carbon monoxide gas, and must be vented to  
the outside where there are no people. Cooling air of  
sufficient amounts must be allowed to flow in and  
exhausted out to ensure proper cooling of the engine  
and generator head.

LOAD APPLICATION  
It is important to determine the total electrical load  
before it is connected to the generator. The two major  
factors in determining the life of a generator head are:  
heat build up, caused by overloading the generator;  
and corrosive contaminants that attack the wiring  
insulation. If the generator is overloaded, the wires  
become excessively hot and cause the insulation to  
break down, reducing its ability to resist corrosive  
contaminants. Over time the effectiveness of the  
insulation is eliminated and a dead short can result.  
Always compare the generator nameplate data  
with that of the equipment to be used to ensure that  
watts, volts, amperage, and frequency requirements  
are suitable for operating equipment. The wattage  
listed on the equipment nameplate is its rated output.  
However, some equipment may require three to ten  
times more wattage than its rating on the nameplate,  
as the wattage is influenced by the equipment  
efficiency, power factor and starting system. NOTE: If  
wattage is not given on equipment nameplate,

The figures given above are for an average load  
such as a blower or fan. If the electric motor is  
connected to a hard starting load, such as an air  
compressor, it will require more starting current. If it is  
connected to a light load, such as a power saw, it will  
require less starting current. The exact requirement  
will also vary with the brand or design of the motor.  
Generators respond to severe overloading  
differently than the power line. When overloaded, the  
engine is not able to supply enough power to bring the  
electric motor up to operating speed. The generator  
responds to the high initial starting current, but the  
engine speed drops sharply. The overload may stall  
the engine. If allowed to operate at very low speeds,  
the electric motor starting winding will burn out in a  
short time. The generator head winding might also be  
damaged.

OPERATING SPEED  
STARTING - MANUAL  
The generator must be run at the correct speed in  
order to produce the proper electrical voltage and  
frequency. The speed of the engine was carefully  
adjusted at the factory so that the generator produces  
the proper voltage and frequency.  
The output voltage should be checked to ensure  
the generator is working properly before connecting a  
load to the generator. Failure to do so could result in  
damage to equipment plugged into the unit and  
possible injury to the individual.  
All engines have a tendency to slow down when a  
load is applied. When the electrical load is connected  
to the generator, the engine is more heavily loaded,  
and as a result the speed drops slightly. This slight  
decrease in speed, together with the voltage drop  
within the generator itself, results in a slightly lower  
voltage when the generator is loaded to its full capacity  
than when it is running with no load. The slight  
variation has no appreciable effect in the operation of  
motors, lights and most appliances. Electronic  
equipment and clocks will be affected if correct RPM is  
not maintained. See Load vs. Output chart.  
1. Disconnect all loads to generator.  
2. Turn gas line valve to ON position.  
3. Turn key to the ON position.  
4. For cold engine, move choke lever to full choke

Output voltage should be checked periodically to  
ensure continued proper operation of the generating  
plant and appliances. It can be checked with a  
portable meter. Frequency can be checked by using  
an electric clock with a sweep second hand. Timed  
against a wristwatch or a stopwatch, the clock should  
be correct within +/- 2 seconds per minute. All speed  
setting adjustments should be done by a qualified  
technician.  
ENGINE CARE  
Refer to your Engine Owner’s Manual for proper  
care and maintenance.  
NOTE: When changing the oil on a hot engine, the  
oil might overshoot the oil drain hole on the generator  
base. Use a deflector (piece of cardboard or paper) to  
direct the oil down the hole.  
BEFORE STARTING  
1. Make sure the generator is positioned on firm  
l evel surface.  
2. Check the crankcase for oil and maintain at a  
proper level.  
3. Check fuel level and fill tank 7/8 full with fresh  
unleaded automotive gasoline. Never fill fuel tank  
completely to the top. Always wipe up and remove  
any spilled gasoline.  
4. Make sure that the exhaust fumes are directed  
away from people.

GENERATOR CARE  
The generator head is a two pole, 3600 RPM, 60  
Hz, brushless, revolving field and synchronous type  
with one sealed radial roller bearing. The rotor of the  
generator head is directly connected to the engine  
crankshaft and the stator is rigidly coupled to the  
engine casting via the generator head casting.  
Exercising the Generator - The generator  
should be operated every four weeks. Warm the  
unit up by starting the engine and letting it run for 10 to  
15 minutes. This will dry out any moisture that has  
accumulated in the windings. If left, this moisture can  
cause corrosion in the winding. Frequent operation of  
the engine/generator will also ensure that the set is  
operating properly should it be needed in an  
emergency.  
Generator Maintenance - The generator head is  
brushless and maintenance free. Any major generator  
service, including the installation or replacement of  
parts, should be performed by a qualified electrical  
service technician.  
USE ONLY FACTORY  
APPROVED REPAIR PARTS. Obtain factory parts  
from Customer Service at 1-800-270-0810.  
A. Bearing - The bearing used in these generators  
is a heavy duty sealed roller bearing. They require no  
maintenance or lubrication.  
B. Receptacles - Quality receptacles have been  
utilized. If a receptacle should become cracked or  
otherwise damaged, replace it. Using cracked or  
damaged receptacles can be both dangerous to the  
operator and destructive to the equipment.  
WARNING, Stand-by Operation  
If your generator is to be used as a standby  
electric power source in case of utility failure, it must  
be installed by a registered and licensed electrician  
and in compliance with all applicable state and local  
electrical codes. Also, local Fire Departments must be  
consulted concerning proper and safe handling  
procedures for gasoline. NEVER connect any  
generator to any existing electrical system without an  
isolating, UL approved transfer switch installed by a  
licensed electrician.
