SAFETY
SAFETY LABEL LOCATIONS
These labels warn you of potential hazards that can cause serious injury. Read them carefully.
If a label comes off or becomes hard to read, contact your Generator dealer for a replacement.
SAFETY INFORMATION
Our generator/welders are designed to give safe and dependable service if operated according to
instructions. Read and understand this owner's manual before operating your generator/welder. You
can prevent accidents by being familiar with your generator/welder's controls, and by observing safe
operating procedures.
Operator Responsibility
•Know how to stop the generator/welder quickly in case of emergency.
•Understand the use of all generator/welder controls, output receptacles, and connections.
•Be sure that anyone who operates the generator/welder receives proper instruction. Do not let
children operate the generator/welder without parental supervision.
Carbon Monoxide Hazards
•Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas. Breathing exhaust can
cause loss of consciousness and may lead to death.
•If you run the generator/welder in an area that is confined, or even partially enclosed, the air you
breathe could contain a dangerous amount of exhaust gas. To keep exhaust gas from building up,
provide adequate ventilation.
Electric Shock Hazards
•The generator/welder produces enough electric power to cause a serious shock or electrocution if
misused.
•Using a generator/welder or electrical appliance in wet conditions, such as rain or snow, or near a
pool or sprinkler system, or when your hands are wet, could result in electrocution. Keep the
generator/welder dry.
•If the generator/welder is stored outdoors, unprotected from the weather, check all electrical
components on the control panel, before each use. Moisture or ice can cause a malfunction or short
circuit in electrical components which could result in electrocution.
•Do not connect to a building's electrical system unless an isolation switch has been installed by a
qualified electrician.
Fire and Burn Hazards
•The exhaust system gets hot enough to ignite some materials.
—Keep the generator/welder at least 1 meter (3 feet) away from buildings and other equipment
during operation.
—Do not enclose the generator/welder in any structure.
6
—Keep flammable materials away from the generator/welder.
•The muffler becomes very hot during operation and remains hot for a while after stopping the engine.
Be careful not to touch the muffler while it is hot. Let the engine cool before storing the
generator/welder indoors.
•Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions. Do not smoke or allow
flames or sparks where the generator/welder is refueled or where gasoline is stored. Refuel in a
well-ventilated area with the engine stopped.
•Fuel vapors are extremely flammable and may ignite after the engine has started. Make sure that any
spilled fuel has been wiped up before starting the generator/welder.
•Use adequate eye protection. Eye protection is of the utmost importance, not only for the operator,
but also for any other personnel in the vicinity while welding is being done. Eye hazards include arc
glare, reflected glare, stray flashes, sparks, and flying bits of molten metal.
• NEVER LOOK AT WELDINGARC WITH UNPROTECTED EYES. Looking at a welding arc
with unprotected eyes can cause severe pain, temporary or even permanent blindness.
•Use a helmet or hand-held shield with a #10 or darker filter lens. Filter lenses eliminate the harmful
effects of infrared and ultraviolet radiation from the arc and reduce the glare from the arc light as
well.
•Wear protective clothing such as leather gloves, cap, sleeves, jacket, apron, and high-top safety shoes.
All outer clothing must be free of oil and grease.

COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION
•Record the engine and frame serial numbers for your future reference. Refer to these serial numbers
when ordering parts, and when making technical or warranty inquiries.

CONTROLS
Engine Switch
To start and stop the engine.
Switch position:
OFF: To stop the engine.
ON: To run the engine.
Recoil Starter
To start the engine, pull the starter grip lightly until resistance is felt, then pull briskly.
NOTICE:
Do not allow the starter grip to snap back against the engine. Return it gently to prevent damage
to the starter.
9
Fuel Valve Lever
The fuel valve is located between the fuel tank and carburetor. When the fuel valve lever is in the
ON position, fuel is allowed to flow from the fuel tank to the carburetor. Be sure to return the fuel
lever to the OFF position after stopping the engine.
Choke Rod
The choke is used to provide an enriched fuel mixture when starting a cold engine. It can be opened
and closed by operating the choke rod manually. Pull the rod out toward CLOSED to enrich the
mixture for cold starting.
Circuit Breaker
The circuit breaker will automatically switch OFF if there is a short circuit or a significant overload
of the generator at the receptacle. If the circuit breaker is switched OFF automatically, check that the
appliance is working properly and does not exceed the rated load capacity of the circuit before
switching the circuit breaker ON again.
The circuit breaker may be used to switch the generator power ON or OFF.
10
Oil Alert System
The Oil Alert System is designed to prevent engine damage caused by an insufficient amount of oil
in the crankcase. Before the oil level in the crankcase can fall below a safe limit, the oil alert system
will automatically stop the engine (the engine switch will remain in the ON position). If the engine
stops and will not restart, check the engine oil level before troubleshooting in other areas.
DC Receptacle
The DC receptacle may ONLY be used for charging 12 volt automotive type batteries.
The battery must be connected to the generator DC receptacle with the proper polarity (battery
positive to generator positive (+) and battery negative to the generator negative (-)).
WARNING:
Do not start the vehicle while the battery charging cable is connected and the generator is running.
The vehicle or the generator may be damaged.
AC/DC (Weld) Selector Switch
The AC/DC (Weld) selector switch is located on the control panel.
•To avoid accidental arcing, one cable end should be firmly attached
to the object to be welded, and the electrode holder at the end of the
other cable should be held in the operator's hand. DC voltage is
present at the welding terminals at all times, regardless of the
position of the AC/DC (WELD) selector.
•Under no circumstances should any type of electrical appliance be
plugged into any of the AC receptacles when the selector is in the DC (WELD) position. AC voltage
is present at the AC receptacle at all times, regardless of the position of the AC/DC (WELD) selector.
However, when this selector is in the DC (WELD) position, the AC voltage is unregulated and
fluctuates considerably.
