Recommended to minimize

fuel consumption and further
reduce noise levels when a
reduced load or no load is applied
to the generator.

If high electrical loads are connected simultaneously, turn the
EcoThrottle switch to the OFF position to reduce voltage changes.

The EcoThrottle system automatically reduces engine speed when all
loads are turned off or disconnected. When appliances are turned on
or reconnected, the engine returns to the proper speed to power the
electrical load.

Do not let the starter rope rub
against the generator body or
the rope will wear out
prematurely.

Do not allow the starter grip to
snap back against the engine.
Return it gently to prevent
damage to the starter.

Do not exceed 20 degrees from
horizontal when pulling the
starter grip.

Pulling the starter grip operates
the recoil starter to crank the
engine for starting.

Used when the battery voltage is
too low to turn the starter motor.
