CONTROLS AND FEATURES
Choke Lever
Move the choke lever (H) to the START
position when starting a cold engine.
Slowly move the choke lever to the RUN
position as the engine RPM stabilizes.
Fuel Tank Cap Vent Lever
When the engine is well-cooled and not
in use, the fuel tank cap vent lever (I)
must be placed in the OFF position to
reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.
The vent lever must be in the ON
position to allow the engine to operate.
Engine Fuel Switch
The engine switch (J) controls the
ignition system and the fuel valve. ON:
opens the fuel valve and allows the
engine to be started. OFF: closes the fuel
valve and shuts off the engine.

Do not allow starter grip to snap back against the generator. Return it
