USING THE OPERATOR’S MANUAL
The operating manual is an important part of your generator and
should be read thoroughly before initial use, and referred to often
to make sure adequate safety and service concerns are being
addressed.
Reading the operator’s manual thoroughly will help avoid any personal
injury or damage to your machine. By knowing how best to operate
this machine you will be better positioned to show others who may
also operate the unit.
This manual contains information for the complete range of Pure
Power generators, and was written to take you from the safety
requirements to the operating functions of your machine. You can
refer back to the manual at any time to help troubleshoot any specic
operating functions, so store it with the machine at all times.
ATTENTION: READ THROUGH THE COMPLETE
MANUAL PRIOR TO THE INITIAL USE OF YOUR
GENERATOR.

HAZARD SYMBOLS AND MEANINGS

safety
WARNING
Generator exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a
poisonous gas that can kill you.
You CANNOT smell or see this gas.
• Use the generator outdoors, away from open windows, vents, or
doors that could allow the carbon monoxide gas to come indoors.
• Keep the generator at least 1 meter (3 feet) away from any
structure or building during use.
• NEVER use a generator indoors, including in homes, garages,
basements, crawl spaces, and other enclosed or partially
enclosed areas, even with ventilation. Opening doors and
windows or using fans will not prevent carbon monoxide build-up
in the home.
• NEVER use a generator in enclosed or partially-enclosed spaces.
Generators can produce high levels of carbon monoxide very
quickly. When you use a portable generator, remember that you
cannot smell or see carbon monoxide. Even if you can’t smell
exhaust fumes, you may still be exposed to carbon monoxide.
• NEVER operate the generator in an explosive atmosphere, near
combustible materials or where ventilation is not sufcient to carry
away exhaust fumes. Exhaust fumes can cause serious injury or
death.
• If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using a generator,
get to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. DO NOT DELAY. The carbon
monoxide from generators can rapidly lead to full incapacitation
and death.
• If you experience serious symptoms, get medical attention
immediately. Inform medical staff that carbon monoxide poisoning
is suspected. If you experienced symptoms while indoors, have
someone call the re department to determine when it is safe to
re-enter the building.
SAFETY INFORMATION

safety
WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are extremely ammable and
explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
WHEN ADDING OR DRAINING FUEL
• Observe all safety regulations for the safe handling of fuel.
Handle fuel in safety containers. If the container does not have a
spout, use a funnel.
• Do not overll the fuel tank, leave room for the fuel to expand.
• Do not rell fuel tank while the engine is running. Before refueling
the generator, turn it off and let it cool down. Gasoline spilled on
hot engine parts could ignite.
• Fill the tank only on an area of bare ground. While fueling the
tank, keep heat, sparks and open ame away. Carefully clean up
any spilled fuel before starting engine.
• Always ll fuel tank in an area with plenty of ventilation to avoid
inhaling dangerous fumes.
• NEVER store fuel for your generator in the home. Gasoline,
propane, kerosene, and other ammable liquids should be stored
outside of living areas in properly-labeled, non-glass safety
containers. Do not store them near a fuel-burning appliance,
such as a natural gas water heater in a garage. If the fuel is
spilled or the container is not sealed properly, invisible vapors
from the fuel can travel along the ground and can be ignited by
the appliance’s pilot light or by arcing from electric switches in the
appliance.

safety
DANGER
Improper grounding can result in a risk of
electrocution. Check with a qualied electrician for
your local requirements if you are in doubt as to
whether the unit is properly grounded.
• This generator is equipped with a grounding terminal for added
protection. Using the ground path from the generator to an
external ground source as instructed in the section labeled
“Grounding Instructions” (Page 16). Please consult a qualied
electrician for local regulations.
• The generator is a potential source of electrical shock if not kept
dry.
• Keep the generator dry and do not use in rain or wet conditions.
To protect from moisture, operate it on a dry surface under
an open, canopy-like structure. Dry your hands if wet before
touching the generator.
• Plug appliances directly into the generator. Or, use a heavy duty,
outdoor-rated extension cord that is rated (in watts or amps) at
least equal to the sum of the connected appliance loads. Check
that the entire cord is free of cuts or tears and that the plug has
all three prongs, especially a grounding pin.
• NEVER try to power the house wiring by plugging the generator
into a wall outlet, a practice known as “back feeding”. This is
an extremely dangerous practice that presents an electrocution
risk to utility workers and neighbors served by the same utility
transformer. It also bypasses some of the built-in household
circuit protection devices.
• If you must connect the generator to the house wiring to power
appliances, have a qualied electrician install the appropriate
equipment in accordance with local electrical codes.
This product has been designed with internal grounding or oating
bonded neutral. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the
risk of electric shock.

safety
• Do not enclose the generator or cover it. The generator may
become overheated if it is enclosed. If generator has been covered
to protect if from the weather during non use, be sure to remove it
and keep it well away from the area during generator use.
• Operate the generator on a level surface. It is not necessary to
prepare a special foundation for the generator. However, the
generator will vibrate on an irregular surface, so choose a level
place. If the generator is tilted or moved during operation, fuel
may spill and/or the generator may tip over, causing a hazardous
situation.
• Proper lubrication cannot be expected if the generator is operated
on a steep incline or slope. In such a case, piston seizure may
occur even if the oil is above the upper level.
• Pay attention to the wiring or extension cords from the generator
to the connected device. If the wire is under the generator or in
contact with vibrating part, it may break and possibly cause a re,
generator burnout, or electric shock hazard. Replace damaged or
worn cords immediately.
• Do not operate in rain, in wet or damp conditions, or with wet
hands. The operator may suffer severe electric shock if the
generator is wet due to rain or snow. If wet, wipe and dry it well
before starting. Do not pour water directly over the generator, nor
wash it with water.
• Be extremely careful that all necessary electrical grounding
procedures are followed during each and every use. Failure to do
so can be fatal.
• DO NOT smoke while charging a battery. The battery emits
ammable hydrogen gas, which can explode if exposed to electric
arcing or open ame. Keep the area well ventilated and keep open
ames / sparks away when charging a battery.
• The engine becomes extremely hot during and for some time after
operation. Keep combustible materials well away from generator
area. Be very careful not to touch any parts of the hot engine
especially the mufer area or serious burns may result.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, read this operator’s
manual completely before using.
When using this product, the following basic
precautions should always be followed.
10
safety
• Keep children and all bystanders at a safe distance from work area.
• It is absolutely essential that you know the safe and proper use of
the power tool or appliance that you intend to use. All operators
must read, understand and follow the tool / appliance owners
manual. Tool and appliance applications and limitations must be
understood. Follow all directions given on labels and warnings.
Keep all instruction manuals and literature in a safe place for future
reference.
• Use only “LISTED” extension cords. When a tool or appliance is
used outdoors, use only extension cords marked “For Outdoor
Use”. Extension cords, when not in use should be stored in a dry
and well ventilated area.
• Always switch off generator’s AC circuit breaker and disconnect
tools or appliances when not in use, before servicing, adjusting, or
installing accessories and attachments.
• Make sure the engine is stopped before starting any maintenance,
servicing or repair.
NOTE: Make sure maintenance and repair of the generator are
performed by properly trained personnel only.
