Before starting the engine, verify the output circuit breaker is in the OFF position.
Procedure:
1. Connect output cable to the generator’s DC output connection and the power supply.

to get fuel to the carburetor.
3. Turn the engine switch ON.
4. Move the choke lever to the START position.
5. Pull the starter grip lightly until resistance is felt, then pull briskly out.
6. Move the choke lever to the RUN position after the engine warms up.
7. Turn the output circuit breaker ON.
8. Verify an output voltage of 39.5V on the display.
Slowly return starter grip to position; do not allow it to snap back. Do not allow the rope to rub against
generator body while retracting.
CAUTION!
Substantial overloading that continuously lights the overload LED (red) may damage the generator.
