1. Non detergent and 2 stroke engine oils will damage the engine and are not recommended Low Oil Alert System The low oil alert system is designed to prevent engine damage caused by an insufficient amount of oil in the crankcase Before the oil level in the crankcase can fall below a safe limit the low oil alert indicator light turns on and the low oil alert system will automatically shut down the engine Note The engine switch will remain in the On position If the engine stops or the oil alert indicator light turns on when you pull the starter grip check the engine oil level Oil must be added to the engine before it will re start Fueling Danger STOP engine before adding fuel This engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline Unleaded gasoline produces fewer engine and spark plug deposits and extends exhaust system life Warning Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil gasoline mixture Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank Replace and secure the fuel cap after adding fuel Fig 4 Petrol is extremely flammable and explosive under certain conditions Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks where the generator is refuelled or where Petrol is stored Refuel in a well ventilated area Do not let fuel spill over the generator casing If there is some fuel spillage be sure that it has evaporated before starting the engine Avoid touching gasoline or breathing in gasoline fumes Startin2. Never locate the generator against a building or near a canvas or plastic structure i e Tents etc Always use the correct fuel mix as stated in the user manual and on the rating plate To prevent fire always stop the engine when refueling and never over fill the fuel tank Always clean up spilt fuel immediately using sand Do not use the generator in or near an explosive atmosphere To prevent an electric shock never operate the machine in rain snow or touch with wet hands Check the fuel system periodically for leaks seals and hoses should be checked for signs of deterioration or chafing Check for loose or missing clamps damaged fuel tank or filler cap All defects should be corrected before further use Always allow the generator to reach full operating speed before connecting any electrical load Always disconnect the electrical load before switching the generator off To prevent surging that may possibly damage electrical equipment do not allow engine to run out of fuel while electrical loads are connected Before transporting the generator in a vehicle drain all fuel to prevent leakage To prevent an electric shock and fire never connect an electrical load with the electrical output switched on Do not connect the generator to any other electrical source The engine speed has been factory set to provide safe operation Tampering with the engine speed adjustment could result in overheating of attach
