Turn the engine switch to the
ON position.
When the engine starts, DC output will begin charging the UPS battery
string automatically and the output indicator (green) will go ON. If the
UPS battery string voltage is too low, the DC output will be turned off.
At this time, the output indicator (green) will go OFF and the overload
indicator (red) will go ON. See Forced Output, page
for additional
information.
Pull the starter grip lightly until
you feel resistance, then pull
briskly in the direction of the
arrow as shown in the picture at
the right.
Do not allow the starter grip
to snap back against the
engine. Return it gently to
prevent damage to the starter.
Do not let the starter rope rub
against the generator body or
the rope will wear out
prematurely.
If the choke knob was pulled to
the CLOSED position to start
the engine, gradually move it to
the OPEN position as the
engine warms up.
