1. SAFETY NOTICE
1. Safety Standard
Read and understand this owner’s manual before
operating your generator. You can help prevent accidents
by being familiar with your generator’s controls, and by
observing safe operating procedures.
DO NOT operate indoors
DO NOT operate in the wet
conditions
DO NOT directly connect to a
household power supply
DO NOT smoke when refueling
DO NOT overflow the fuel
when refueling
Stop the engine before refueling
Keep the generator at least 10 feet far away from any
flammable materials
2. Special Requirements
Electrical equipment including lines and plug connections
should not be damaged in any way or have exposed wires.
The circuit breakers that have been installed match with the
provided generator.
If the circuit breakers require replacement, the replacement
must be a circuit breaker with identical ratings and
performance characteristics.
DO NOT operate the generator before grounding.
If using extension cords, be sure to check the electrical needs
of your appliance, as electrical power is lost over distance. Use
this rule: if your extension cord is #16 gauge wire,
you can have a cord up to 50 feet. For the same appliance,
if your cord is #10 gauge, your maximum length is 250 feet.

3. CONTROL FUNCTION
1. Oil warning light (red)
When the oil level falls below the
required level, the oil warning light
will turn on and the engine will stop
automatically. Unless you refill with
oil, the engine will not start again.
Tip: If the engine stalls or does not
start, turn the engine switch to “ON”
and then pull the recoil starter.
If the oil warning light flickers for a few seconds,
the engine oil is insufficient. Add oil and restart.
2. Overload indicator light (Red)
The overload indicator light comes on
when an overload of a connected
electrical device is detected, the
inverter control unit overheats, or the
AC output voltage rises. Then, the AC
protector will trip, stopping power
generation to protect the generator and any connected
electrical devices. The AC pilot light (Green) will go off and the
overload indicator light (Red) will stay on, but the engine will
not stop running.
When the overload indicator light comes on and power
generation stops, proceed as follows:
1）Turn off any connectedelectrical devices and stop the
engine.
2）Reduce the total wattage of connected electrical
devices within the rated output.
3）Check for blockages in the cooling air inlet and around
