Introduction
2
Never use the generator or any of its parts as a step. Stepping
on the unit can stress and break parts, and may result in
dangerous operating conditions from leaking exhaust gases,
fuel leakage, oil leakage, etc.
On electric start models, disconnect the POSITIVE (+) battery
cable from the engine starter OR the NEGATIVE (-) battery
cable from the battery terminal, whichever is easier, before
transporting the generator.
NOTE:
This generator is equipped with a spark arrestor muffler.
The spark arrestor must be maintained in effective working
order by the owner/ operator. See the "Clean Spark Arrestor
Screen" section.
EXHAUST & LOCATION HAZARDS
Never operate in an enclosed area or indoors! NEVER use in
the home, in a vehicle, or in partly enclosed areas such as
garages, EVEN IF doors and windows are open! ONLY use
outdoors and far from open windows, doors, vents, and in an
area that will not accumulate deadly exhaust.
The engine exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, which
you cannot see or smell. This poisonous gas, if breathed in
sufficient concentrations, can cause unconsciousness or even
death.
Adequate, unobstructed flow of cooling and ventilating air
is critical to correct generator operation. Do not alter the
installation or permit even partial blockage of ventilation
provisions, as this can seriously affect safe operation of the
generator. The generator MUST be operated outdoors.
This exhaust system must be properly maintained. Do nothing
that might render the exhaust system unsafe or in noncompliance
with any local codes and/or standards.
• Always use a battery operated carbon monoxide alarm indoors,
installed according to the manufacturers instructions.
If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the generator has
been running, move to fresh air IMMEDIATELY. See a doctor, as
you could have carbon monoxide poisoning.
ELECTRICAL HAZARDS
The generator produces dangerously high voltage when in
operation. Avoid contact with bare wires, terminals, connections,
etc., while the unit is running, even on equipment connected
to the generator. Ensure all appropriate covers, guards and
barriers are in place before operating the generator.
Never handle any kind of electrical cord or device while
standing in water, while barefoot or while hands or feet are wet.
DANGEROUS ELECTRICAL SHOCK MAY RESULT.
Local electrical codes may require proper grounding of the
generator. Consult with a local electrician for grounding
requirements in the area.
Do not use worn, bare, frayed or otherwise damaged electrical
cord sets with the generator.
Before performing any maintenance on the generator,
disconnect the engine starting battery to prevent accidental
start up. Disconnect the cable from the battery post indicated
by a NEGATIVE, NEG or (–) first. Reconnect that cable last.
In case of accident caused by electric shock, immediately shut
down the source of electrical power. If this is not possible,
attempt to free the victim from the live conductor. AVOID
DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE VICTIM. Use a non-conducting
implement, such as a rope or board, to free the victim from the
live conductor. If the victim is unconscious, apply first aid and
get immediate medical help.
FIRE HAZARDS
Gasoline is highly FLAMMABLE and its vapors are EXPLOSIVE.
Do not permit smoking, open flames, sparks or heat in the
vicinity while handling gasoline.
• Never add fuel while unit is running or hot. Allow engine to cool
completely before adding fuel.
Never fill fuel tank indoors. Comply with all laws regulating
storage and handling of gasoline.
Do not overfill the fuel tank. Always allow room for fuel
expansion. If tank is over-filled, fuel can overflow onto a hot
engine and cause FIRE or an EXPLOSION. Never store generator
with fuel in tank where gasoline vapors might reach an open
flame, spark or pilot light (as on a furnace, water heater or
clothes dryer). FIRE or EXPLOSION may result. Allow unit to
cool entirely before storage.
• Wipe up any fuel or oil spills immediately. Ensure that no
combustible materials are left on or near the generator. Keep the
area surrounding the generator clean and free from debris and
keep a clearance of five (5) feet on all side to allow for proper
ventilation of the generator.
Do not insert objects through unit’s cooling slots.

NEVER use in the home, in a vehicle, or in
partly enclosed areas such as garages, EVEN
IF doors and windows are open! ONLY use
outdoors and far from open windows, doors,
vents, and in an area that will not accumulate
deadly exhaust.

The engine exhaust fumes contain carbon
monoxide, which you cannot see or smell.
This poisonous gas, if breathed in sufficient
concentrations, can cause unconsciousness or
even death.

Adequate, unobstructed flow of cooling and
ventilating air is critical to correct generator
operation. Do not alter the installation or permit
even partial blockage of ventilation provisions,
as this can seriously affect safe operation
of the generator. The generator MUST be
operated outdoors.

This exhaust system must be properly
maintained. Do nothing that might render the
exhaust system unsafe or in noncompliance
with any local codes and/or standards.


2.4.1 SYSTEM GROUND
The generator has a system ground that connects the generator
frame components to the ground terminals on the AC output
receptacles.
Special Requirements
There may be federal, state, safety or health administration
regulations, local codes, or ordinances that apply to the intended
use of the generator.
Please consult a qualified electrician, electrical inspector, or the
local agency having jurisdiction:
In some areas, generators are required to be registered with
local utility companies.
If the generator is used at a construction site, there may be
additional regulations which must be observed.
2.4.2 CONNECTING TO A BUILDING’S ELECTRICAL
SYSTEM
Connections for standby power to a building’s electrical system
must be made by a qualified electrician. The connection must
isolate the generator power from utility power or other alternative
power sources and must comply with all applicable laws and
electrical codes.
Grounding The Generator
Local electrical codes may require proper grounding of the unit
(Figure 8). For that purpose, connecting a 2.59mm stranded
copper wire to the grounding lug and to an earth-driven copper
or brass grounding rod (electrode) provides adequate protection
against electrical shock. However, local codes may vary widely.
Consult with a local electrician for grounding requirements in
the area.
Figure 8 – Generator Ground Location
2.4.3 CONNECTING ELECTRICAL LOADS
DO NOT connect 120 Volt loads to 230 Volt receptacles.
DO NOT connect 3 phase loads to the generator.
DO NOT connect 60 Hz loads to the generator.
• Let engine stabilize and warm up for a few minutes after
starting.
Plug in and turn on the desired 230 Volt AC, single phase, 50
Hz electrical loads.
Add up the rated watts (or amps) of all loads to be connected
at one time. This total should no be greater than (a) the rated
wattage/amperage capacity of the generator or (b) circuit
breaker rating of the receptacle supplying the power. See “Don’t
Overload the Generator
2.5 DON’T OVERLOAD THE GENERATOR
Overloading a generator in excess of its rated wattage capacity
can result in damage to the generator and to connected electrical
devices. Observe the following to prevent overloading the unit:
Add up the total wattage of all electrical devices to be connected
at one time. This total should NOT be greater than the
generator's wattage capacity.
The rated wattage of lights can be taken from light bulbs. The
rated wattage of tools, appliances and motors can usually be
found on a data label or decal affixed to the device.
If the appliance, tool or motor does not give wattage, multiply
volts times ampere rating to determine watts (volts x amps =
watts).
Some electric motors, such as induction types, require about
three times more watts of power for starting than for running.
This surge of power lasts only a few seconds when starting
such motors. Make sure to allow for high starting wattage when
selecting electrical devices to connect to the generator:
1. Figure the watts needed to start the largest motor.
2. Add to that figure the running watts of all other connected
loads.
2.6 BEFORE STARTING THE GENERATOR
Prior to operating the generator, engine oil and gasoline will need
to be added, as follows:
2.6.1 ADDING ENGINE OIL
Use no special additives. Select the oil's viscosity grade according
to the expected operating temperature (also see chart).
Above 4° C, use SAE 30
Below 4° C and down to -12° F, use 10W-30
Below -12° C, use synthetic 5W-30

Any attempt to crank or start the engine before it has
been properly serviced with the recommended oil may
result in an engine failure.
Operation
9
TEMPERATURE IN DEGREES CELSIUS ( C)
1. Place generator on a level surface (not to exceed 15° in any
direction).
2. Clean area around oil fill and remove oil fill cap.
3. Slowly fill engine with oil through the oil fill opening until it
reaches the full mark. Stop filling occasionally to check oil
level. (Engine oil is full when level is up to the threads of the
oil fill plug, see Figure 9.)
4. Install oil fill cap and finger tighten securely.
5. Check engine oil level before starting each time thereafter.
Figure 9 – Oil Level
2.6.2 ADDING GASOLINE

NEVER fill fuel tank indoors. Avoid spilling
gasoline on hot engine. Allow engine to cool
entirely before adding fuel. NEVER fill fuel tank
when engine is running or hot. DO NOT light
a cigarette or smoke when filling the fuel tank.
Gasoline is highly flammable and its vapors are
EXPLOSIVE.

Do not overfill the fuel tank. Always leave room
for fuel expansion. If the fuel tank is overfilled,
fuel can over flow onto a hot engine and cause
fire or an explosion. Wipe up any spilled fuel
immediately.
1. Use regular UNLEADED gasoline with the generator engine. Do
not use premium gasoline. Do not mix oil with gasoline.
2. Clean area around fuel fill cap, remove cap.
3. Slowly add unleaded regular gasoline to fuel tank. Fill to
bottom of screen filter. Be careful not to overfill (Figure 10).
4. Install fuel cap and wipe up any spilled gasoline.
IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming
in fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel hose or tank
during storage. Alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol
or methanol) can attract moisture, which leads to separation and
formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel
system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems,
the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days or
longer. See the "Storage" section. Never use engine or carburetor
cleaner products in the fuel tank as permanent damage may occur.

position until the engine runs smoothly and then fully in to the
“Run” position. If engine falters, pull choke knob back out to
“1/2 Choke” position until the engine runs smoothly and then
to “Run” position.
3. This generator is also equipped with a manual recoil starter
which may be used if the battery is discharged.
NOTE:
The switch must be in the RUN position.
2.8 STOPPING THE ENGINE
1. Shut off all loads, then unplug the electrical loads from
generator panel receptacles. Never start or stop the engine
with electrical devices plugged in and turned on.
2. Let engine run at no-load for several minutes to stabilize the
internal temperatures of engine and generator.
3. Move Start/Run/Stop switch to the “Stop” position.
4. Close fuel valve.
2.9 LOW OIL PRESSURE SHUTDOWN SYSTEM
The engine is equipped with a low oil pressure sensor that shuts
down the engine automatically when the oil pressure drops below
5 psi. A delay built into the low oil shutdown system allows oil
pressure to build during starting. The delay allows the engine to
run for about 10 seconds before sensing oil pressure. If the engine
shuts down by itself and the fuel tank has enough gasoline, check
engine oil level.
2.9.1 RESTARTING
If trying to restart the engine within 10 seconds after it shuts down,
the engine may NOT start. The system needs 5 to 10 seconds to
reset.
If the engine is restarted after such a shutdown and the low oil
pressure has not been corrected, the engine will run for about 10
seconds as described above and then stop.
2.10 CHARGING THE BATTERY (ELECTRIC START
UNITS ONLY)

Storage batteries give off explosive hydrogen
gas while recharging. An explosive mixture will
remain around the battery for a long time after
it has been charged. The slightest spark can
ignite the hydrogen and cause an explosion.
Such an explosion can shatter the battery and
cause blindness or other serious injury.
Do not permit smoking, open flame, sparks
or any other source of heat around a battery.
Wear protective goggles, rubber apron and
rubber gloves when working around a battery.
Battery electrolyte fluid is an extremely
corrosive sulfuric acid solution that can cause
severe burns. If spill occurs flush area with
clear water immediately.
NOTE:
The battery shipped with the generator has been fully charged.
A battery may lose some of its charge when not in use for
prolonged periods of time. If the battery is unable to crank the
engine, plug in the 12V charger included in the accessory box.
RUNNING THE GENERATOR DOES NOT CHARGE THE BATTERY.
Use battery charger plug to keep the battery charged and ready for
use. Battery charging should be done in a dry location.
1. Plug charger into “Battery Charger Input” jack, located on the
control panel. Plug wall receptacle end of the battery charger
into a 230 Volt AC wall outlet.
2. Unplug battery charger from wall outlet and control panel jack
when generator is going to be in use.

3.3 GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
The warranty of the generator does not cover items that have been
subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To receive full value
from the warranty, the operator must maintain the generator as
instructed in this manual.
Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to properly
maintain the generator.
All adjustments in the Maintenance section of this manual should
be made at least once each season. Follow the requirements in the
"Maintenance Schedule".
NOTE:
Once a year replace the spark plug and replace the air filter.
A new spark plug and clean air filter assure proper fuel-air
mixture and help the engine run better and last longer.
3.3.1 GENERATOR MAINTENANCE
Generator maintenance consists of keeping the unit clean and dry.
Operate and store the unit in a clean dry environment where it will
not be exposed to excessive dust, dirt, moisture or any corrosive
vapors. Cooling air slots in the generator must not become
clogged with snow, leaves, or any other foreign material.
Check the cleanliness of the generator frequently and clean when
dust, dirt, oil, moisture or other foreign substances are visible on
its exterior surface.

Never insert any object or tool through the air cooling
slots, even if the engine is not running.
NOTE:
DO NOT use a garden hose to clean generator. Water can
enter the engine fuel system and cause problems. In addition,
if water enters the generator through cooling air slots, some
water will be retained in voids and crevices of the rotor
and stator winding insulation. Water and dirt buildup on the
generator internal windings will eventually decrease the
insulation resistance of these windings.
Maintenance
12
3.3.2 TO CLEAN THE GENERATOR
Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
A soft, bristle brush may be used to loosen caked on dirt, oil, etc.
A vacuum cleaner may be used to pick up loose dirt and debris.
• Low pressure air (not to exceed 25 psi) may be used to
blow away dirt. Inspect cooling air slots and openings on the
generator. These openings must be kept clean and unobstructed.
3.3.3 ENGINE MAINTENANCE

When working on the generator, always disconnect
negative cable from battery. Also disconnect spark plug
wire from spark plug and keep wire away from spark
plug.
3.3.4 CHECKING OIL LEVEL
See the “BEFORE STARTING THE GENERATOR” section for
information on checking the oil level. The oil level should be
checked before each use, or at least every eight hours of operation.
Keep the oil level maintained.
3.3.5 CHANGING THE OIL AND OIL FILTER
Change the oil and filter after the first 30 hours of operation.
Change the oil every 100 hours or every season thereafter. If
running this unit under dirty or dusty conditions, or in extremely
hot weather, change the oil more often.

Hot oil may cause burns. Allow engine to cool before
draining oil. Avoid prolonged or repeated skin exposure
with used oil. Thoroughly wash exposed areas with soap.
Use the following instructions to change the oil:
1. Clean area around oil drain cap.
2. Remove oil drain cap from the drain hose and oil fill plug to
drain oil completely into a suitable container.
3. When oil has completely drained, install oil drain cap and
tighten securely.
4. Place a suitable container beneath the oil filter and turn filter
counterclockwise to remove. Discard according to local
regulations.
5. Coat gasket of new filter with clean engine oil. Turn filter
clockwise until gasket contacts lightly with filter adapter. Then
tighten an additional 3/4 turn.
6. Fill oil sump with recommended oil and replace the oil fill plug.
(See “Before Starting the Generator” for oil recommendations).
7. Wipe up any spilled oil.
8. Dispose of used oil at a proper collection center.
3.3.6 REPLACING THE SPARK PLUG
Use Champion RC14YC spark plug or equivalent. Replace the
plug once each year. This will help the engine start easier and
run better.
1. Stop the engine and pull the spark plug wire off of the spark
plug.
2. To gain access, remove the four (4) socket head screws and
take off the side panel.
3. Clean the area around the spark plug and remove it from the
cylinder head.
4. Set the spark plug's gap to .76 mm. Install the correctly
gapped spark plug into the cylinder head (Figure 14).
5. Push the boot firmly on the spark plug and install side panel.
Figure 14 – Spark Plug Gap
3.4 SERVICE AIR FILTER
The engine will not run properly and may be damaged if using a
dirty air filter. Clean or replace the air filter paper filter every 200
hours or once a year (Figure 15). Clean or replace more often if
operating under dusty conditions. To clean or replace paper air
filter:
1. Remove air filter cover and remove paper filter (Figure 15).
2. Clean paper filter by tapping it gently on a solid surface. If the
filter is too dirty, replace it with a new one. Dispose of the old
filter properly.
3. Clean air filter cover. Next insert new paper filter into the base
of the air filter. Re-install air filter cover.
NOTE:
To order a new air filter, please contact the nearest authorized
service center at www.generac.com/Dealer Locator. The air
filter part number is 073111.

3.5 CLEAN SPARK ARRESTOR SCREEN
The engine exhaust muffler has a spark arrestor screen. Inspect
and clean the screen at least once each year (Figure 16). If unit is
used regularly, inspect and clean more often.
If using the generator on any forest-covered,
brush-covered or grass-covered unimproved
land, it must equipped with a spark arrestor.
The spark arrestor must be maintained in good
condition by the owner/operator.
Clean and inspect the spark arrestor when the engine is at ambient
temperature as follows:
1. Loosen the clamp and remove the spark arrestor screen from
the muffler.
2. Inspect screen and replace if torn, perforated or otherwise
damaged. DO NOT USE a defective screen. If screen is not
damaged, clean it with commercial solvent.
3. Replace the spark arrestor and secure with the clamp.

3.6 GENERAL
The generator should be started at least once every 30 days and
be allowed to run at least 30 minutes. If this cannot be done and
the unit must be stored for more than 30 days, use the following
information as a guide to prepare it for storage.
NEVER store engine with fuel in tank indoors
or in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas where
fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot
light as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer
or other gas appliance.

Allow unit to cool entirely before storage.
3.7 LONG TERM STORAGE
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential
fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel hose or tank during
storage. Also, experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels
(called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture, which
leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic
gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage.
To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied
before storage of 30 days or longer, as follows:
1. Add a quality gasoline stabilizer to the fuel per the manufacturers
specifications, and run the unit for 10-15 minutes.
2. After engine cools down, remove all gasoline from the fuel
tank. Use a commercially available, non-conductive vacuum
siphon.
Drain fuel into approved container outdoors,
away from open flame. Be sure engine is cool.
Do not smoke.
3. Start and run engine until engine stops from lack of fuel.
4. After engine cools down, drain oil from engine. Refill with
recommended grade.
5. Remove spark plug and pour about 1/2 ounce (15 ml) of
engine oil into the cylinder. Cover spark plug hole with rag. Pull
the recoil starter a couple times to lubricate the piston rings
and cylinder bore. A fogging agent can also be used in the
place of oil.

Avoid spray from spark plug hole when
cranking engine.
6. Install and tighten spark plug. Do not connect spark plug wire.
7. Clean the generator outer surfaces. Check that cooling air
slots and openings on generator are open and unobstructed.
8. Store the unit in a clean, dry place.
3.8 OTHER STORAGE TIPS
Do not store gasoline from one season to another.
Replace any gasoline can that starts to rust. Rust and/or dirt in
the gasoline will cause problems with the carburetor and fuel
system.
• If possible, store the unit indoors and cover it to give protection
from dust and dirt. Cover the unit with a suitable protective
cover that does not retain moisture.
BE SURE TO EMPTY THE FUEL TANK. If it is not practical
to empty the fuel tank and the unit is to be stored for some
time, use a commercially available fuel stabilizer added to the
gasoline to increase the life of the gasoline.

NEVER cover the generator while engine and
exhaust area are warm.
