  2. Turn the fuel valve to the 'ON' position.
  3. Move the choke lever to the 'CHOKE' position (if the engine is cold).
  4. Turn the engine switch to the 'ON' position.
  5. Pull the recoil starter handle firmly until the engine starts.
  6. Once the engine starts, gradually move the choke lever to the 'RUN' position.

5.3 ECO and MAX Modes

  • ECO Mode: Reduces engine speed when the load is low, improving fuel efficiency and reducing noise. Ideal for light loads.
  • MAX Mode: Operates the engine at full speed to provide maximum power output. Use for heavy loads or when starting high-demand appliances.

5.4 Shutting Down the Generator

  1. Disconnect all electrical devices from the generator.
  2. Turn the engine switch to the 'OFF' position.
  3. Turn the fuel valve to the 'OFF' position.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable performance of your generator.

6.1 Fueling

The generator operates for approximately 5 to 6 hours on a full 4-liter tank, depending on the load. Always use fresh Super or Super Plus gasoline.

6.2 Oil Check and Change

Check the engine oil level before each use. Change the oil after the first 20 hours of operation, and then every 50-100 hours or annually, whichever comes first.

6.3 Air Filter Maintenance

Inspect the air filter regularly. Clean or replace the air filter element as needed, especially when operating in dusty conditions. A dirty air filter can reduce engine performance and increase fuel consumption.
