232-1195 M-F 8-5 CST before using the generator.
DANGER: CARBON MONOXIDE
Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES. Generator exhaust contains carbon monoxide (CO).
This is a poison gas you cannot see or smell. If you can smell the generator exhaust, you are breathing CO. But
even if you cannot smell the exhaust, you could be breathing CO.
NEVER use a generator inside homes, garages, crawlspaces, or other partly enclosed areas. Deadly levels
of carbon monoxide can build up in these areas. Using a fan or opening windows and doors does NOT
supply enough fresh air. ONLY use a generator outside and far away from windows, doors, and vents. These open-
ings can pull in generator exhaust.
Even if you use a generator correctly, CO may leak into the home. ALWAYS use a battery-powered or battery-
backup CO alarm in the home. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the generator has been running, move
to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may have carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING: The exhaust from this product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
WARNING: This generator may emit highly flammable and explosive gasoline vapors, which can cause
severe burns or even death if ignited. A nearby open flame can lead to explosion even if it isn’t directly in
contact with gasoline.
• Do not operate near an open flame.
• Do not smoke near generator.
• Always operate on a firm, level surface.
• Always turn generator off before refueling. Allow generator to cool for at least 2 minutes before removing
fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve pressure in tank.
• Do not overfill fuel tank. Gasoline may expand during operation. Do not fill to the top of the tank. Allow
for expansion.
• Always check for spilled fuel before operating.
• Empty fuel tank before storing or transporting the generator.
WARNING: This generator produces powerful voltage, which can result in electrocution.
• ALWAYS ground the generator before using it (see the “Ground the Generator” portion of the
“GENERATOR PREPARATION” section).
• Generator should only be plugged into electrical devices, either directly or with an extension cord.
NEVER connect to a building electrical system without a qualified electrician. Such connections must
comply with local electrical laws and codes. Failure to comply can create a back-feed, which may result
in serious injury or death to utility workers.
• Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in highly conductive areas such as metal decking or steel
work. GFCIs are available in-line with some extension cords.
• Do not use in rainy conditions.
• Do not touch bare wires or receptacles (outlets).
• Do not allow children or non-qualified persons to operate.
GENERAL SAFETY PROCEDURES
6
WARNING: This generator produces heat when running. Temperatures near exhaust can exceed 1500
F (650 C).
Do not touch hot surfaces. Pay attention to warning labels on the generator identifying hot parts of the
machine.
Allow generator to cool down after use before touching engine or areas of the generator that become
hot during use.
CAUTION: Misuse of this generator can damage it or shorten its life.
Only use generator for its intended purposes.
Operate only on dry, level surfaces.
Allow generator to run for several minutes before connecting electrical devices.
Shut off and disconnect any malfunctioning devices from generator.
Do not exceed the wattage capacity of the generator by plugging in more electrical devices than the unit can
handle.
Do not turn on electrical devices until after they are connected to the generator.
Turn off all connected electrical devices before stopping the generator.
Turn the engine switch to “OFF” position when the engine is not running.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS – This manual contains important instructions for the WEN® generator that
should be followed during installation and maintenance of the generator.
Generators vibrate in normal use. During and after the use of the generator, inspect both the generator as well as
extension and power supply cords for damage resulting from vibration. Have damaged items repaired or replaced
as necessary. Do not use plugs or cords that show signs of damage such as broken or cracked insulation.
For power outages, permanently installed stationary generators are better suited for providing backup power to the
home. Even a properly connected portable generator can become overloaded. This may result in overheating or
stressing of the components, possibly leading to a generator failure.
WARNING: If this generator is used as a supply for a building’s wiring system, the generator must be installed
by a qualified electrician and connected to a transfer switch as a separately derived system in accordance with
the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70. The generator shall be connected to a transfer switch that switches all
conductors excluding the equipment grounding conductor. The frame of the generator shall be connected to an
approved grounding electrode.

ASSEMBLY
In order to best protect the generator while in the package, this product comes with some components disassem-
bled. Please complete the following assembly steps before proceeding to use the generator. For ease of assembly,
we recommend attaching the components in the order listed in this manual.
If after reading this section, you are unsure about how to perform any of the steps, please call (800) 232-1195 M-F
8-5 CST for customer service.
WARNING: This generator is heavy. Assembly procedures may require lifting equipment or two
people.
ATTACH FEET
To attach the feet to the generator, perform the following
steps:
1. Find a wooden block or a similarly sturdy item that is at
least three inches thick. Stack the end of the generator with
the recoil starter onto the wooden block.
2. Setup both side feet as attached picture.
ATTACH WHEELS
To attach the wheels to the generator, perform the following steps:
1. Rest the exhaust end of the generator on the same wooden block
used for attaching the feet.
2. Take one wheel shaft and one nut as shown. Slide the wheel shaft
with the threaded part facing inward through the frame. Secure using
the nut and a wrench.
3. Slide the wheel onto the axle and secure in place using a large cotter
pin. Spread the pin legs apart slightly to help secure the pin in place.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the other wheel.

ASSEMBLY
ATTACH HANDLES
The handles attach to the generator frame on the same side as the recoil starter (left side when facing control
panel). To attach the handles to the generator frame, perform the following steps:
1. Take one handle bracket and line up the holes in the handle bracket with the holes on the generator frame.
2. Slide two bolts through the holes in the handle bracket and generator frame to hold the handle onto the frame.
3. Secure the bolt in place with a nut.
4. Set up the hand on the handle bracket.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 for the other handle.

USING THE GENERATOR FOR THE FIRST TIME
The following section describes steps necessary to prepare the generator for use. If after reading this sec-
tion, you are unsure about how to perform any of the steps please call (800) 232-1195 M-F 8-5 CST for
customer service. Failure to perform these steps properly can damage the generator or shorten its life.
Step 1 - ADD OIL
The generator is shipped without oil. User must add the proper amount of oil before operating the generator for
the first time. The oil capacity of the engine crankcase is 50.7 fl. oz. For general use (above 40° F), we recommend
30W, 4-stroke engine oil.
ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATIONS
Select good quality detergent oil bearing the American Petroleum Institute (API) service classifications SJ, SL, or
SM (synthetic oils may be used). Use the ASE viscosity grade of oil from the following chart (Figure 1) that matches
the starting temperature anticipated before the next oil changes.
Figure 1 - Engine Oil Temperature Recommendations
To add oil, follow these steps:
1. Make sure the generator is on a level surface. Tilting the generator to assist in filling will cause oil to flow into
engine areas and will cause damage. Keep generator level!
2. Open the door.
3. Remove the dipstick from the engine. (Figure 2)
4. Using a funnel or appropriate dispenser, add the correct amount of oil (50.7 fl.oz) into the crankcase. The
engine is equipped with a low oil sensor and will not start if the amount of oil is insufficient.
5. To check the oil level, wipe the dipstick with a clean rag. Insert the dipstick into the oil fill opening without
screwing it in. Remove the dipstick to check the oil mark.
6. Slowly add more oil and repeat step 4 until the oil mark reaches to the top of the dipstick (Figure 2). Do not
overfill the crankcase. The generator is equipped with a low-oil sensor and will not start if the amount of oil is
insufficient.
7. Check for oil leaks. Tighten dipstick firmly.
