GENERATING SET USE
STARTING THE ENGINE
CAUTION :
• Check that no appliances are connected to the
generating set receptacles.
1. Turn the fuel valve “ON” [1] (direction of the arrow
“ON”), close the choke by turning the lever [2]
towards the symbol.
NOTE:
Do not use the choke when the engine is warm
or the ambient temperature is high.
2. Turn the engine switch “ON” [3].
3. Pull the starter grip [4] lightly until resistance is felt,
then give a sharp tug.
This precaution is necessary to reduce the dangers
of injury caused by the sudden change of rotation
resistance of the engine starter.
CAUTION :
• Do not allow the starter grip to fly back against the
engine; bring it back gently to avoid damaging the
starter.
• Never use starting additives composed of flammable
and volatile substances which might cause an
explosion on starting the engine.
4. As the engine begins to warm up, bring the choke
lever [2] gradually round to the position on the
opposite side to the symbol.
