Operating Instructions
2. In accordance with national and
local standards, a double throw
transfer switch must be installed in
the system.
Always shut off
main power prior
to temporary connection of the
generator to a building electrical
system.
Installation of the
generator as a
backup electrical source must be
performed by a qualified (licensed or
certified) electrical technician.
Maintenance
INFREQUENT USAGE
If the generator is used infrequently,
starting difficulty may occur. To help
prevent difficulty starting, the
generator should be run for
approximately 30 minutes per week.
STORAGE
If the generator is not to be used for
extended periods of time, the
following prestorage procedures
should be performed:
1. Make sure engine oil is filled to the
proper level.
2. Drain all fuel from the tank, lines,
carburetor and fuel valve.
3. Remove the spark plug, and pour
approximately one teaspoon of oil
into the spark plug hole.
4. Pull the starter cord several times to
spread the oil throughout the
cylinder.
5. Slowly pull the starter cord, until
resistance is felt. This indicates that
the piston is moving upward on the
compression cycle, and the intake
and exhaust valves are closed. (The
piston pushes a small amount of air
from the spark plug hole on
compression.)
6. Use of anti-gumming agents in the
fuel system can help prevent the
build up of gum and varnish.
