Attach Feet
To attach the feet to the generator, perform the following steps:
1. Stack the two generator wheels on top of each other. Lift the end of the generator that has
the recoil starter onto the stack of wheels (see figure 1). Be careful not to obstruct any
holes on the generator frame.
2. Place one leg onto the frame as shown in figure 2. Line up the holes on the generator
frame with the holes on the bracket portion of the leg. Tighten using two M6x40 bolts, two
M6 nuts, and the included wrench.
3. Repeat step 2 for the other generator leg.
