Oxseryn Portable Inverter Generator User Manual

1. Introduction and Important Safety Information

Thank you for choosing the Oxseryn Portable Inverter Generator. This manual provides essential information for the safe and efficient operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of your generator. Please read this manual thoroughly before operating the generator and keep it for future reference.

1.1 General Safety Warnings

• Carbon Monoxide Hazard: Generators produce carbon monoxide (CO), an odorless, colorless, and poisonous gas. Operating a generator indoors or in poorly ventilated areas can cause serious injury or death. ALWAYS operate the generator outdoors in a well-ventilated area, far away from windows, doors, and vents. The built-in CO sensor will automatically shut down the generator if CO levels become too high.
• Fire Hazard: Gasoline is highly flammable. Always refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine off and cool. Do not smoke or allow open flames near the generator.
• Electrical Shock Hazard: Do not operate the generator in wet conditions. Ensure all electrical connections are secure and dry.
• Hot Surfaces: The generator's engine and muffler become very hot during operation and remain hot for some time after shutdown. Avoid contact with hot surfaces.
• Children and Pets: Keep children and pets away from the generator at all times.

3. Initial Setup

Before first use, the generator requires oil and fuel. Ensure the generator is on a level surface.

3.1 Adding Engine Oil

The engine is shipped without oil. Failure to add oil will prevent the engine from starting due to the low oil shutdown feature.

1. Place the generator on a firm, level surface.
2. Locate the oil fill cap/dipstick.
3. Using the provided oil funnel, slowly add approximately 0.4 quarts (16 oz) of 10W-30 engine oil. Do not overfill.
4. Check the oil level using the dipstick. The oil should be at the upper limit of the dipstick.
5. Securely replace the oil fill cap.

Note: It is recommended to change the oil frequently during the first few hours of operation (break-in period) to remove any manufacturing debris. Refer to the Maintenance section for details.

3.2 Adding Fuel

Use only fresh, unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Do not use E85 or mixed fuels.

1. Ensure the generator is turned OFF and cool.
2. Move the generator to a well-ventilated outdoor area for fueling.
3. Unscrew the fuel cap.
4. Carefully pour gasoline into the fuel tank (capacity 1.1 gallons), avoiding overfilling. Leave a small air gap to allow for fuel expansion.
5. Securely replace the fuel cap. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.

4. Operating the Generator

4.1 Starting the Generator

Follow these steps to start your Oxseryn EDOG01 generator:

1. Ensure the generator is placed outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
2. Turn the fuel valve to the "ON" position.
3. Move the engine switch to the "ON" position.
4. Pull the choke lever to the "CHOKE" position (if the engine is cold).
5. Firmly pull the recoil starter handle until the engine starts.
6. Once the engine starts, slowly push the choke lever back to the "RUN" position.

Watch this video for a visual guide on starting the generator:

4.2 Stopping the Generator

1. Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator.
2. Allow the engine to run for a few minutes without load to cool down.
3. Turn the engine switch to the "OFF" position.
4. Turn the fuel valve to the "OFF" position.

4.3 Connecting Electrical Devices

Once the generator is running, you can connect your devices to the available outlets. Ensure the total wattage of connected devices does not exceed the generator's running wattage (1800W).

• Plug your 120V AC devices into the AC outlets.
• Connect USB devices to the USB port.
• Connect Type-C devices to the Type-C port.
• For 12V DC charging, connect your device to the 12V DC port.

4.4 Eco-Mode Operation

The Eco-mode switch allows the generator to automatically adjust engine speed to match the load, improving fuel efficiency and reducing noise levels. This is ideal for light loads or when minimal power is required.

• To activate Eco-mode, slide the ECO switch to the "ON" position.
• For full power output or when starting high-demand appliances, slide the ECO switch to the "OFF" position.

4.5 Parallel Operation (Optional)

The EDOG01 generator is parallel ready, allowing you to connect two identical units for nearly double the power output. A parallel kit (sold separately) is required for this function.

Figure 5: Parallel Ready Setup

Refer to the parallel kit's instruction manual for detailed connection and operation procedures.

5. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your generator. Always turn off the engine and allow it to cool before performing any maintenance.

5.1 Maintenance Schedule

5.2 Oil Change Procedure

To change the engine oil:

1. Run the engine for a few minutes to warm the oil, then turn it off.
2. Place a suitable container under the oil drain plug.
3. Remove the oil fill cap/dipstick and the oil drain plug.
4. Allow all the old oil to drain completely.
5. Reinstall the oil drain plug securely.
6. Add new 10W-30 engine oil (approx. 0.4 quarts) using the oil funnel.
7. Check the oil level and replace the oil fill cap.
8. Dispose of used oil responsibly.

5.3 Storage

For long-term storage (more than 30 days):

• Drain the fuel tank and carburetor. Run the engine until it stops from lack of fuel.
• Change the engine oil.
• Remove the spark plug and pour a tablespoon of engine oil into the cylinder. Pull the recoil starter a few times to distribute the oil, then reinstall the spark plug.
• Clean the exterior of the generator.
• Store in a clean, dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
