EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION

This generator is an engine-driven, revolving field,

alternating current (AC) generator. It was designed to

supply electrical power for operating compatible

electrical lighting, appliance, tool and motor loads.

This manual contains information for a generator that

operates 120 and/or 240 Volt, single phase, 60Hz

devices that require up to 10,000 watts (10.0 kW) of

power that pull up to 83.3 Amps at 120 Volts or

41.6 Amps at 240 Volts.

CAUTION! Do not exceed the generators

wattage/amperage capacity. Add up the rated

watts of all devices you are connecting to

generator receptacles at one time. This total

should not be greater than 10,000 watts for this

generator. See Dont Overload the Generator

on page 11.

Every effort has been expended to make sure that the

information in this manual is both accurate and

current. However, Generac reserves the right to

change, alter or otherwise improve the product at any

time without prior notice.

DANGER! Do not tamper with engine

governed speed. High operating speeds are

dangerous and increase the risk of personal

injury or damage to equipment. The generator

supplies correctly rated frequency and voltage

only when running at proper governed speed.

Incorrect frequency and/or voltage can damage

some connected electrical loads. Operating at

excessively low speeds imposes a heavy load

and, when adequate engine power is not

available, may shorten engine life.

SAFETY RULES

This generator set was designed and manufactured

for specific applications. Do not attempt to modify the

unit or use it for any application it was not designed

for. If you have any questions about your generators

application, ask your dealer or consult the factory.

The manufacturer could not possibly anticipate every

circumstance that might involve a hazard. For that

reason, warnings in the manual and warnings on tags

or decals affixed to the unit are not allinclusive. If you

intend to handle, operate or service the unit by a

procedure or method not specifically recommended by

the manufacturer, first make sure that such a

procedure or method will not render this equipment

unsafe or pose a threat to you and others.

Read this manual carefully and become familiar

with your generator set. Know its applications, its

limitations, and any hazards involved.

DANGER! You must isolate the generator

from the electric utility by opening the electrical

systems main circuit breaker or main switch if

this unit is used for backup power. Failure to

isolate the generator from the power utility

may result in injury or death to electric

utility workers and damage to the

generator.

DANGER!Generator exhaust gases

contain DEADLY carbon monoxide gas.

Carbon monoxide, if breathed in sufficient

concentrations can cause unconsciousness or

death. Operate this equipment outdoors where

adequate ventilation is available.

The engine exhaust from this product contains

chemicals known to the State of California to

cause cancer, birth defects, or other

reproductive harm.

WARNING:

Generac Portable Products SE10000 Generator

 The generator produces a very powerful voltage that

can cause serious injury or death by electrocution.

Never touch bare wires or receptacles. Never permit

a child or any unqualified person to operate the

generator.

 Never handle any kind of electrical cord or device

while standing in water, while barefoot or while

hands or feet are wet.

 Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in any

damp or highly conductive area (such as metal

decking or steel work).

 Never use worn, bare, frayed or otherwise damaged

electrical cords with the generator.

Gasoline is highly FLAMMABLE and its vapors

are EXPLOSIVE. Never allow smoking, open

flames, sparks or heat in the vicinity while

handling gasoline. Avoid spilling gasoline on a hot

engine. Comply with all laws regulating storage and

handling of gasoline.

 Do not overfill the fuel tank. Allow room for fuel

expansion. If tank is overfilled, fuel can overflow

onto a hot engine and cause a FIRE or an

EXPLOSION.

 Never store a generator with fuel in the tank where

gasoline vapors might reach an open flame, spark

or pilot light (as on a furnace, water heater, clothes

dryer). FIRE or an EXPLOSION may result.

 Do not insert any object through cooling slots of the

engine. You could damage the unit or injure

yourself.

 The unit requires an adequate flow of cooling air for

its continued proper operation. Never operate the

unit inside any room or enclosure where the free

flow of cooling air into and out of the unit might be

obstructed. Allow at least 3 feet of clearance on

all sides of generator or you could damage the unit.

Never operate the generator:

in rain; in any enclosed compartment; if connected

electrical devices overheat; if electrical output is

lost; if engine or generator sparks; if flame or smoke

is observed while unit is running; if unit vibrates

excessively.

GROUNDING THE

GENERATOR

The National Electric Code requires the frame and

external electrically conductive parts of the generator

be properly connected to approved earth ground.

Local electrical codes may also require proper

grounding of the unit. For this purpose, a grounding

wing nut (Figure 1) is provided on the cradle.

Generally, connecting a No. 12 AWG (American Wire

Gauge) stranded copper wire to the grounding wing

nut 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 your area. Be sure to keep the ground

wire attached while you connect the electrode.

Properly grounding the generator helps prevent

electrical shock if ground fault conditions exists in the

generator or in connected electrical devices. Proper

grounding also helps dissipate static electricity, which

often builds up in ungrounded devices.

BEFORE STARTING THE

GENERATOR

Add Engine Oil

For your convenience, an oil filler spout has been

supplied with your generator. This cap fits over a

standard bottle of oil and allows for easy access to the

oil fill.

See engine owners manual for oil recommendations

and fill instructions.

Add Gasoline

DANGER! NEVER fill fuel tank indoors.

NEVER fill fuel tank when engine is running or

hot. DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke when

filling the fuel tank.

DANGER! Do not overfill the fuel tank. Always

leave room for expansion.

 Use regular UNLEADED gasoline in the generator.

DO NOT use premium gasoline. DO NOT mix oil

with gasoline. DO NOT overfill the gas tank.

 Clean area around fuel fill cap; remove cap.

 Fill fuel tank with clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline.

Be careful not to overfill. Allow 1/2" of tank space for

fuel expansion (Figure 4).

 Install fuel cap and wipe up any spilled gasoline.

IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits

from forming in essential fuel system parts such as

the carburetor, fuel filter, 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. See

Storage on page 12. Never use engine or carburetor

cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent

damage may occur.

TO START THE ENGINE

WARNING! Never start or stop engine with

electrical devices plugged into the panel

receptacles and turned on. You could damage

both the generator and the electrical devices.

 Unplug all electrical loads from units receptacles

before starting the engine.

 Make sure the unit is in a level position.

 Open the fuel shutoff valve (Figure 5).

 Pull the choke knob to close. If the engine is warm,

or the ambient temperature is high, pull the choke

knob halfway, or keep it fully open (Figure 6).

DANGER! Engine exhaust contains carbon

monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas which

causes unconsciousness and death. Never

run engine indoors or in poorly ventilated

areas.

DANGER! Burn hazard. Temperature of

muffler and nearby areas may exceed 150°F

(65°C). Do not touch these areas on the

generator.

 Turn key switch to the Start position (Figure 7).

IMPORTANT: Do not operate the electric starter

continuously for more than 5 seconds, even if the

engine does not start. Extended cranking can damage

the starter motor.

NOTE: If the engine fails to start, set the key to the

Run position and wait for about 10 seconds before

retrying.

IMPORTANT: Never turn the key switch to the Start

position while the engine is running. You could

damage the starter motor.

 When the engine starts, gradually open choke by

pushing the choke knob in and keep it fully opened

while running.

IMPORTANT! Do not overload the generator! Do

not overload individual panel receptacles! These

outlets are protected against overload with push-to-

reset-type circuit breakers. If amperage rating of any

circuit breaker is exceeded, that breaker opens and

electrical output to that receptacle is lost. Read Dont

Overload the Generator on page 11 carefully.

If the Engine Will Not Start

Refer to the engine owners manual.

STOPPING THE ENGINE

 Remove all electrical loads connected to units
