When starting and warming up the engine, you do not need to operate the choke lever unless the engine is hard to start using the normal starting procedure. This generator is equipped with an intelligent, automatic voltage regulator.
The iAVR provides power in excess of the maximum rating for up to ten seconds to start appliances that require high startup current. The fuel gauge is a mechanical device that measures the fuel level in the tank. The red indicator in the window will reference the level in relation to full or empty.
To provide increased operating time, start with a full tank before beginning operation. Check the fuel level with the generator on a level surface. Always refuel with the engine OFF and cool. Page High Altitude Operation High Altitude Operation At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be excessively rich. Performance will decrease, and fuel consumption will increase.
High altitude performance can be improved by installing a smaller diameter main fuel jet in the carburetor and readjusting the pilot screw. If you always operate the engine at altitudes higher than 6, feet above sea level, have an authorized Honda generator dealer perform this carburetor modification.
Non-detergent the engine and are not recommended. Honda 4-stroke equivalent Page Fuel Recommendation Fuel Recommendation 1. Check the fuel level gauge. Refill the tank if the fuel level is low. Do not fill above the shoulder of the fuel strainer. Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions. Refuel in a well-ventilated smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is refueled or where gasoline is stored.
This is no cause for concern. If spark knock or pinging occurs at a steady engine speed, under normal load, change brands of gasoline. If spark knock or pinging persists, see an authorized Honda generator dealer.
Page Starting The Engine 1. The generator may be hard to start if a load is connected. Turn the fuel valve to the ON position. The automatic choke will be closed if the engine is cold.
If you want to operate the choke manually, position. To stop the engine in an emergency, turn the engine switch to the OFF position. In normal use: 1. Disconnect DC battery charging cables.
Page Maintenance Periodic maintenance and adjustment is necessary to keep the generator in good operating condition. Perform the service and inspection at the intervals shown in the Maintenance schedule below.
