operating this unit. Always make sure the unit

is level and properly grounded. Check engine

oil before starting.

ELECTRIC START

CAUTION:NEVER USE AN ENGINE STARTING

Use the following procedure to start the engine.
1. Make sure the fuel cock is in the ON position.
2. Set engine speed control to RUN
3. Insert the key into the key switch.
4. Turn the key clockwise to the START position. Release

the key as soon as the engine starts. It will return to the

ON position.

5. If the engine fails to start:

a. Wait until the engine comes to a complete stop before

you attempt to start it again. Engaging the starter

while the engine is still rotating will result in damage

to the starter motor and flywheel.

b. Wait at least 30 seconds before you attempt to start

the engine again. This pause will allow the battery

voltage to recover to prevent damage to the starter

motor due to the low battery voltage.

button. The reset button should pop out and there should

each receptacle to verify. IF THE RESET BUTTON DOES

NOT POP OUT, DO NOT USE THE RECEPTACLES(S).

SEE DEALER FOR SERVICE IMMEDIATELY.
