2. Place axle stud through wheel retainer on cradle frame, as shown in Figure 2. 3. Use 15/16” wrench to secure the axle stud to frame with 5/8-18 jam nut. 4. Install the other axle stud in the same manner. NOTE: Be sure to install wheel with raised hub inboard. 5. Tip unit and install the wheel. Place flat washer over axle stud. 6. Retain wheel on axle stud with retaining pin. Install other wheel on remaining axle shaft the same way. 7. Attach the vibration mount to the mounting leg with a capscrew and lock nut. 8. Remove two front nuts from vibration mount on unit with 13mm wrench. Use these nuts to retain the mounting leg. 9. Center the lifting handle on generator end of cradle. Attach the handle using two 13mm wrenches with two capscrews and two hex nuts.

If you choose not to use the electric start feature, you do not need to install the battery. If your unit does not have electric start, ignore this section. Check Battery / Attach Negative Battery Wire The sealed battery on the generator is fully charged and pre–installed except for the negative (black) battery cable. To install: • Cut off tie wrap securing loose end of negative (black) cable. • Remove nut and washer on the negative battery terminal. • Slide the negative battery cable over the screw on the negative terminal (Figure 3). • Reattach washer and nut and tighten. • Verify that the connections to the battery and generator are tight and secure. Figure 3 — Negative Battery Connection Positive battery cable Screw Negative battery cable Washer Nut BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE Add Oil CAUTION! Any attempt to crank or start the engine before it has been properly filled with the recommended oil may result in an engine failure. To fill your engine with oil: • Place generator on a level surface. • Follow the oil grade recommendations and oil fill instructions given in the engine owner’s manual. NOTE: The generator’s revolving field rides on a prelubricated and sealed ball bearing that requires no additional lubrication for the life of the bearing. Add Fuel WARNING! NEVER fill fuel tank indoors. NEVER fill fuel tank when engine is running or hot.Allow unit to cool for two minutes before refueling. DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke when filling the fuel tank. WARNING! DO NOT overfill the fuel tank. Always allow room for fuel expansion. • Place generator on a level surface. • Follow the fuel grade recommendations and fuel fill instructions given in the engine owner’s manual. 7 Portable Generator 8 GROUNDING THE GENERATOR The National Electrical Code requires that the frame and external electrically conductive parts of this generator be properly connected to an approved earth ground. Local electrical codes may also require proper grounding of the unit. For that purpose, a GROUNDING FASTENER is provided on the generator end (Figure 4). Generally, connecting a No. 12 AWG (American Wire Gauge) stranded copper wire to the grounding fastener and to an earth–driven copper or brass grounding rod (electrode) provides adequate protection against electrical shock. Be careful to keep the grounding wire attached after connecting the stranded copper wire. However, local codes may vary widely. Consult with a local electrician for grounding requirements in your area. Properly grounding the generator helps prevent electrical shock if a ground fault condition exists in the generator or in connected electrical devices, especially when the unit is equipped with a wheel kit. Proper grounding also helps dissipate static electricity, which often builds up in ungrounded devices. BATTERY CHARGER If equipped, use battery float charger jack to keep the starting battery charged and ready for use. Battery charging should be done in a dry location, such as inside a garage. • Plug the charger into the unit’s “Battery Float Charger” jack, which is located on the starter switch (Figure 5). Plug battery charger into a 120 Volt AC wall receptacle. • Unplug the charger from the unit and the wall outlet when generator is being started and while it is in operation. • Keep this charger plugged in when generator is not in use to prolong battery life.The charger has a built in float equalizer and will not overcharge the battery, even when plugged in for an extended period of time. IMPORTANT: See “Battery Maintenance” on page 12 for additional information. OPERATING THE GENERATOR CAUTION! NEVER start or stop the engine with electrical loads connected to the receptacles AND with the connected devices turned ON. IMPORTANT: Always unplug the battery float charger before starting the generator. Starting the Engine Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator. Use the following start instructions:...
