Locate the Idle Control ON/OFF switch on the control panel and set it 
• 
to the “OFF” position (Figure 16).
Figure 16 - Idle Control Switch
Move engine CHOKE knob outward to 
• 
“Full Choke” position (Figure 
17).
Figure 17 - Full Choke Position
To start engine, press and hold the Start/Run/Stop switch in the “Start” 
• 
position. The engine will crank and attempt to start. When the engine 
starts, release the switch to the run position.
When the engine starts, move choke knob to “1/2 Choke” position 
• 
until the engine runs smoothly and then fully in to the “Run” position. 
If engine falters, move choke knob back out to “1/2 Choke” position 
until the engine runs smoothly and then to “Run” position.
NOTE:
If engine fires, but does not continue to run, move choke lever to “Full 
Choke” and repeat starting instructions.
IMPORTANT: Do not overload the generator. Also, 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” carefully.
2.9  STOPPING THE ENGINE
Shut off all loads, then unplug the electrical loads from generator panel 
• 
receptacles. Never start or stop the engine with electrical devices 
plugged in and turned on.
Turn “Off” the Idle Control switch (if on).
• 
Let engine run at no-load for several minutes to stabilize the internal 
• 
temperatures of engine and generator.
Move Start/Run/Stop switch to “Off” position.
• 
Close fuel valve.

2.10  AUTOMATIC IDLE CONTROL
This feature is designed to greatly improve fuel economy. When this switch 
is turned “On,” the engine will only run at its normal fast governed engine 
speed when electrical load is connected. When the load is removed, the 
engine will run at a reduced speed of 2100 RPM. With the switch “Off,” 
the engine runs at the normal fast engine speed all the time. Always have 
the switch OFF when starting and stopping the engine.

COLD WEATHER OPERATION/
DE-ICER
Under certain weather conditions (temperatures below 40° F (4° C) and 
a high dew point), the engine may experience icing of the carburetor 
and/or the crankcase breather system. To eliminate this problem, this 
generator engine is fitted with a winter/summer valve. This directs hot 
air into the carburetor during cold weather operation. Always make sure 
the winter/summer valve is in the correct location relative to the weather 
conditions.
2.12  
LOW OIL PRESSURE 
SHUTDOWN SYSTEM
The engine is equipped with a low oil pressure sensor that shuts down 
the engine automatically when the oil pressure drops below 10 psi. If the 
engine shuts down by itself and the fuel tank has enough gasoline, check 
engine oil level.
