harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnin s.ca. ov.
· If you start to feel sick, dizzy or weak while using the portable generator, you
may have carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING POISONOUS GAS HAZARD.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas that could kill you in minutes. You CANNOT smell it, see it, or taste it. Even if you do not smell exhaust fumes, you could still be exposed
· to carbon monoxide gas. Operate this product ONLY outside far away from windows, doors and vents to reduce
Get out side to fresh air immediately and call 911 for emergency medical attention. Very high levels of CO can rapidly cause victims to lose consciousness before they can rescue themselves. DO NOT attempt to shut off the generator before moving to fresh air. Entering an enclosed space where a generator is or has been running may put you at greater risk of CO poisoning.

accumulating and potentially being drawn
·towards occupied spaces. Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms or plug-in carbon monoxide alarms
with battery back-up according to the
manufacturer's instructions. Smoke alarms
·cannot detect carbon monoxide gas. DO NOT run this product inside homes, garages, basements, crawlspaces, sheds, or
other partially-enclosed spaces even if using
fans or opening doors and windows for
ventilation. Carbon monoxide can quickly
build up in these spaces and can linger for
·hours, even after this product has shut off. ALWAYS place this product downwind and point the engine exhaust away from
occupied spaces. If you start to feel sick,
dizzy, or weak while using this product, shut
it off and get to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a

WARNING
This generator does not meet U. S. Coast Guard Regulation 33CFR-183 and should not be used on marine applications. Failure to use the appropriate U.S. Coast Guard approved generator could result in death or serious injury and/or property damage.
WARNING
WHEN STARTING EQUIPMENT
·Ensure spark plug, muffler, fuel cap, and air ·cleaner are in place.
DO NOT crank engine with spark plug removed.
Generator voltage could cause electrical shock or burn resulting in death or serious injury.
·Use approved transfer equipment, suitable for the intended use, to prevent backfeed by
isolating generator from electric utility
workers.

AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE ABOUT TEMPERATURE:
Your Firman Power Equipment product is designed and rated for continuous operation at
ambient temperatures up to 40°C (104°F). When your product is needed, your product may be
operated at temperatures ranging from -15°( (5°F) to S0°C (122°F) for short periods. If the
product is exposed to temperatures outside this range during storage, it should be brought back
within this range before operation. In any event, the product must always be operated outdoors,
··in a well-ventilated area and away from doors, windows and other vents. When operated above 77°F(25°C) there may be a decrease in power. Maximum wattage and current are subject to and limited by such factors as fuel BTU content ambient temperature, altitude, engine condition and etc. Maximum power decreases about 3.5% for each 1,000 feet above sea level; and will also decrease about 1% for each 10°F(6°C) above 60°F(16°C) ambient temperature.

NOTE:
We consider the first 5 hours of run time to be the break-in period for the unit. During the break in period stay at or below 50% of the running watt rating and vary the load occasionally to allow stator windings to heat and cool. Adjusting the load will also cause engine speed to vary and help seat piston rings.

Low Oil Shutdown
The unit is equipped with a low oil shutdown.If the oil level becomes lower than required,the sensor will activate a warning device or stop the engine. If generator shuts off and the oil level is within specifications, check to see if generator is sitting at an angle that forces oil to shift. Place on an even surface to correct this. If engine fails to start, the oil level may not be sufficient to deactivate low oil level switch. Make sure the sump is completely full of oil.

Red Line Indicator
IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel hose or tank during storage. Alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture, which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. See the " Long Term Storage" section. Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank as permanent damage may occur.

Do Not Overload Generator
Overloading a generator in excess of its rated wattage capacity can result in damage to the generator and to connected electrical devices.
To prolong the life of your generator and attached devices, follow these steps to add electrical load:
·Placing the LPG cylinder at the end of the generator near the handle, where engine fan air flows out from the generator. This air is slightly heated by flowing over the engine.
DANGER
THE LPG CYLINDER SHOULD NOT BE PLACED IN THE PATH OF THE MUFFLER OUTLET.

2. Allow the engine to run for several minutes

Muffler
5. Plug in and turn on the next item.
6. Allow the engine to stabilize. 7. Repeat steps 5-6 for each additional item.
NOTE:
·The LPG cylinder can be temporarily warmed by pouring warm water over the top of the cylinder.
Observing frost on LPG cylinders and regulators
is common during operation and normally is not
an indication of a problem. As LPG vaporizes and
travels from the tank to the generator engine it
expands. The amount of frost that forms can be
affected by the size of the cylinder, the amount
of fuel being used, the humidity of the air and other
operating conditions. In unusual situations this
frost may eventually restrict the flow of LPG gas
to the generator resulting in deteriorating
performance. For example, if the tank temperature
is reduced to a very low level then the rate at which
the LPG vaporizes is also reduced and may not
provide sufficient fuel flow to the engine. This is
not an indication of a problem with the generator
but only a problem with the flow of gas from the
LPG cylinder. If generator performance seems
to be deteriorating at the same time that ice
formation is observed on tank valve, hose or
regulator then some actions may be taken to
eliminate this symptom. In these rare situations
it can be helpful to reduce or eliminate the cold
fuel system effects by doing one of the following:

General Recommendations
Regular maintenance will improve the performance and extend the life of the generator. See any authorized dealer for service. The generator's warranty does not cover items that have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To receive full value from the warranty, the operator must maintain the generator as instructed in this manual. Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to properly maintain your generator. All service and adjustments should be made at least once each season. Follow the requirements in the Maintenanc Shedule chart above. Notice Once a year you should clean or replace the spark plug and replace the air filter. New spark plugs and clean air filter assure proper fuel-air mixture and help your engine run better and last longer.

Battery Charging & Maintenance
The battery powers up the control module in this generator. This product is equipped with an automatic battery charging circuit. The battery will receive charging voltage when the engine is running. The battery will maintain a proper charge if the unit is used on a regular basis (about once every two weeks). If it is used less frequently, the battery should be connected to a trickle charger (not included) or battery maintainer (not included) to keep the battery properly charged. If the battery voltage is extremely low, the charging circuit may not be able to re-charge the battery. In this case, the battery must be connected to a standard automotive style battery charger for re-charging before it can be used. When the battery is dead, generator can be run only on "GAS" position.
~ WARNING
Generator exhaust contains odorless and colorless carbon monoxide gas. To avoid accidental or unintended ignition of your generator during periods of storage, the following precautions should be followed: When storing the generator for short or extended periods of time make sure that the fuel selector switch is in the "OFF" position and the battery leads have been disconnected from the battery.
