2. Safety Information

Operating a generator can be hazardous. Always follow these safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury.

• Carbon Monoxide Hazard: Generators produce carbon monoxide (CO) gas, which is colorless and odorless. Never operate the generator indoors or in enclosed spaces. Use it only outdoors, far away from windows, doors, and vents. Install battery-operated CO alarms in your home.
• Electrical Shock Hazard: Do not operate the generator in wet conditions. Ensure all electrical connections are dry and properly insulated. Never touch the generator or connected devices with wet hands.
• Fire Hazard: Gasoline is highly flammable. Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine off and cool. Do not smoke or allow open flames near the generator. Store fuel in approved containers.
• Hot Surfaces: The generator engine and muffler become very hot during operation and remain hot for some time after shutdown. Avoid touching these surfaces to prevent burns.
• Proper Grounding: Always properly ground the generator before use to prevent electrical shock. Refer to local electrical codes for grounding requirements.
• Children and Pets: Keep children and pets away from the generator at all times.

4. Setup

Before first use, proper setup is crucial for safe and efficient operation.

4.1 Adding Engine Oil

1. Place the generator on a level surface.
2. Locate the oil fill cap/dipstick.
3. Remove the oil fill cap/dipstick.
4. Add approximately 0.45 to 0.6 liters (450-600ml) of recommended engine oil (e.g., SAE 10W-30) into the oil fill opening. Do not overfill. The oil level should reach the lower edge of the oil fill opening.
5. Securely replace the oil fill cap/dipstick.

Important: The generator is shipped without engine oil. Operating without oil will cause severe engine damage and void the warranty.

4.2 Adding Fuel

1. Ensure the generator is off and cool.
2. Open the fuel tank cap.
3. Fill the fuel tank with fresh, unleaded gasoline (minimum 87 octane). The tank capacity is 2 gallons (7.57 liters). Do not overfill; leave space for fuel expansion.
4. Securely close the fuel tank cap.

Warning: Do not use E85 or any other fuel containing more than 10% ethanol. This can damage the fuel system.

4.3 Grounding the Generator

For safety, the generator must be properly grounded. Connect a heavy-gauge copper wire from the generator's ground terminal to an appropriate ground source, such as a ground rod.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Starting the Engine

1. Ensure the generator is on a level, outdoor surface, away from combustible materials.
2. Check oil and fuel levels.
3. Turn the fuel valve to the ON position.
4. If the engine is cold, move the choke lever to the FULL CHOKE position.
5. Turn the Engine Switch to the ON position.
6. Pull the recoil starter handle slowly until resistance is felt, then pull quickly and firmly.
7. Once the engine starts, gradually move the choke lever to the RUN position.
8. Allow the engine to run for a few minutes to warm up before connecting electrical loads.

5.2 Connecting Electrical Loads

1. Ensure the generator is running stably.
2. Plug in your electrical devices to the appropriate AC or DC outlets.
3. Do not exceed the generator's rated running wattage (3400W) or peak wattage (4400W). Overloading will trip the overload protector.

5.3 ECO Mode Operation

The ECO mode switch, when engaged, allows the engine speed to automatically adjust to the connected load. This reduces fuel consumption, engine noise, and exhaust emissions when operating at less than full capacity.

• To activate ECO mode, flip the ECO switch to the ON position.
• For maximum power output or when starting high-load devices, turn ECO mode OFF.

5.4 Stopping the Engine

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.

6. Maintenance

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

6.1 Maintenance Schedule

6.2 Storage
