technique that the manufacturer does not specifically recommend, you must satisfy
yourself that it is safe for you and others. You must also make sure that the procedure,
work method or operating technique that you choose does not render the generator
unsafe.
Safety and Control Symbols
The safety alert symbol indicates a potential personal injury hazard. A signal word
(DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION) is used with the alert symbol to designate a
degree or level of hazard seriousness. A safety symbol may be used to represent the
type of hazard. The signal word NOTICE is used to address practices not related to
personal injury.
DANGER indicates a hazard which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious
injury.
WARNING indicates a hazard which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a hazard which, if not avoided, could result in minor or
moderate injury.
NOTICE address practices not related to personal injury.
WARNING POISONOUS GAS HAZARD. Engine exhaust contains carbon
monoxide, a poisonous gas that could kill you in minutes. You CANNOT

Circuit Breaker Figure
1
The circuit breaker(s) (G) will automatically open if the load exceeds the generator’s
rated output. If the circuit breaker opens, then reduce the output load and reset the
circuit breaker before resuming operation. To determine maximum output load, see the
Generator Capacity section.
Don’t Overload Generator
Capacity
Make sure the generator’s Starting Wattage* meets or exceeds the Rated (Operating) and
Additional Surge (Starting) Watts of the electrical devices.
1. Select the items you will power at the same time.
2. Total the rated (running) watts of these items. This is the amount of power your
generator must produce to keep your items running. See Wattage Reference
Guide.
3. Estimate how many surge (starting) watts you will need. Surge wattage is the
short burst of power needed to start electric motor-driven tools or appliances
such as a circular saw or refrigerator. Because not all motors start at the same
time, total surge watts can be estimated by adding only the item(s) with the
highest additional surge watts to the total rated watts from step 2.
Example:
Total Rated (Running) Watts 1555
Highest Additional Surge Watts + 600
Total Generator Output Required =2155
NOTICE If total generator output required does not contain additional surge watts, DO
NOT exceed generator’s rated wattage.**
*See Starting Wattage in the Specifications section.
**See Rated Wattage in the Specifications section.
Power Management
Failure to properly connect electrical devices can result in damage to the generator or
to connected electrical devices. The correct and safe way to manage generator power is
to sequentially add electrical devices (loads) as follows:
1. Before you start the engine, make sure that all electrical devices are
disconnected from the generator outlets.
2. Start the engine (see the How to Start the Engine section).
3. Connect the electrical device that requires the most watts (load).
4. Let the generator output stabilize (engine runs smoothly).
5. Connect the next electrical device.
6. Again, let the generator output stabilize.
7. Continue following the above steps to add electrical devices. Make sure the
total watts (load) of all electrical devices does not exceed the generator’s
wattage capacity (see the Specifications section).
NOTICE
Exceeding generators wattage/amperage capacity could damage generator
and/or electrical devices connected to it.
DO NOT exceed the generator’s wattage/amperage capacity.
Start generator and let engine stabilize before connecting electrical loads.
Connect electrical loads in OFF position, then turn ON for operation.
Turn electrical loads OFF and disconnect from generator before stopping generator.

Maintenance
Maintenance Schedule
Follow the hourly or calendar intervals, whichever occurs first. More frequent service is
required when operating in adverse conditions noted below.
Service more often under dirty or dusty conditions.
General Recommendations
Regular maintenance will improve the performance and extend the life of the generator.
See any authorized dealer for service.
The generator’s warranty does not cover items that have been subjected to operator
abuse or negligence. To receive full value from the warranty, the operator must
maintain the generator as instructed in this manual.
NOTICE
Improper treatment of generator could damage it and shorten its life.
NEVER operate generator without protective housing or covers to assure proper
cooling.
Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to properly maintain your generator.
All service and adjustments should be made at least once each season. Follow the
requirements in the Maintenance Schedule chart above.
NOTICE Once a year you should clean or replace the spark plug and replace the air
filter. A new spark plug and clean air filter assure proper fuel-air mixture and help your
engine run better and last longer.
Generator Maintenance
Generator maintenance consists of keeping the unit clean and dry. Operate and store
the unit in a clean dry environment where it will not be exposed to excessive dust, dirt,
moisture, or any corrosive vapors. Cooling air slots in the generator must not become
clogged with snow, leaves, or any other foreign material.
NOTICE DO NOT use water or other liquids to clean generator. Liquids can enter
engine fuel system, causing poor performance and/or failure to occur. In addition, if
liquid enters generator through cooling air slots, some of the liquid will be retained in
voids and cracks of the rotor and stator winding insulation. Liquid and dirt buildup on
the generator internal windings will eventually decrease the insulation resistance of
these windings.
Cleaning
Daily or before use, look around and underneath the generator for signs of oil or fuel
leaks. Clean accumulated debris from inside and outside the generator. Keep the linkage,
spring and other engine controls clean. Keep the area around and behind the muffler free
from any combustible debris. Inspect cooling air slots and openings on generator. These
openings must be kept clean and unobstructed.
Engine parts should be kept clean to reduce the risk of overheating and ignition of
accumulated debris:
Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
NOTICE
Improper treatment of generator could damage it and shorten its life.
DO NOT expose generator to excessive moisture, dust, dirt, or corrosive vapors.
DO NOT insert any objects through cooling slots.
Use a soft bristle brush to loosen caked on dirt or oil.
Use a vacuum cleaner to pick up loose dirt and debris.

(see Maintenance Schedule in the Maintenance section). Equally important is to keep
top of engine free from debris. Also see Cleaning.
Storage
If you will not be using the generator for more than 30days, use the following
guidelines to prepare it for storage.
Generator Storage
Clean the generator as outlined in Cleaning.
Check that cooling air slots and openings on generator are open and unobstructed.
Long Term Storage Instructions
Fuel can become stale when stored over 30 days. Stale fuel causes acid and gum
deposits to form in the fuel system or on essential carburetor parts. To keep fuel
fresh, use Briggs & Stratton® Advanced Formula Fuel Treatment & Stabilizer, available
wherever Briggs & Stratton genuine service parts are sold.
For engines equipped with a FRESH START® fuel cap, use Briggs & Stratton FRESH
START® available in a drip concentrate cartridge.
There is no need to drain gasoline from the engine if a fuel stabilizer is added according
to instructions. Run the engine for 2 minutes to circulate the stabilizer throughout the
fuel system before storage. If gasoline in the engine has not been treated with a fuel
stabilizer, it must be drained into an approved container. Run the engine until it stops
from lack of fuel. The use of a fuel stabilizer in the storage container is recommended
to maintain freshness.
Change Engine Oil
While engine is still warm, drain oil from crankcase. Refill with recommended grade.
See Changing Engine Oil.
Other Storage Tips
1. DO NOT store fuel from one season to another unless it has been treated as
described in Long Term Storage Instructions.
2. Replace fuel container if it starts to rust. Rust and/or dirt in fuel can cause
problems if it’s used with this unit.
3. Cover unit with a suitable protective cover that does not retain moisture.
4. Store generator in clean, dry area.
WARNING Contact with muffler area can result in serious burns.
Exhaust heat/gases can ignite combustibles, structures or
damage fuel tank causing a fire.
DO NOT touch hot parts and AVOID hot exhaust gases.
Allow equipment to cool before touching.
Keep at least 1.5 m (5feet) of clearance on all sides of generator including
overhead.
Contact the original equipment manufacturer, retailer, or dealer to obtain a spark
arrester designed for the exhaust system installed on this engine.
Replacement parts must be the same and installed in the same position as the
original parts.
WARNING Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive which
could cause burns, fire or explosion resulting in death, serious
injury and/or property damage.
WHEN STORING FUEL OR EQUIPMENT WITH FUEL IN TANK
Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters, clothes dryers or other
appliances that have pilot light or other ignition source because they could ignite
fuel vapors.
WHEN DRAINING FUEL
Turn generator engine OFF and let it cool at least 2 minutes before removing fuel
cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve pressure in tank.
Drain fuel tank outdoors.
Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and other ignition
sources.
Check fuel lines, tank, cap and fittings frequently for cracks or leaks. Replace if
necessary.

Power Ratings: The gross power rating for individual gas engine models is labeled in accordance with SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) code J1940 (Small Engine Power &
Torque Rating Procedure), and rating performance has been obtained and corrected in accordance with SAE J1995 (Revision 2002-05). Torque values are derived at 3060 RPM;
horsepower values are derived at 3600 RPM. Actual gross engine power will be lower and is affected by, among other things, ambient operating conditions and engine-to-engine
variability. Given both the wide array of products on which engines are placed and the variety of environmental issues applicable to operating the equipment, the gas engine will not
develop the rated gross power when used in a given piece of power equipment (actual “on-site” or net power). This difference is due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to,
accessories (air cleaner, exhaust, charging, cooling, carburetor, fuel pump, etc.), application limitations, ambient operating conditions (temperature, humidity, altitude), and engine-to-
engine variability. Due to manufacturing and capacity limitations, Briggs & Stratton may substitute an engine of higher rated power for this Series engine.
* This generator is rated in accordance with ISO 8528 G1.

Descripción del equipo
Lea atentamente este manual y familiarícese con el generador. Conozca
sus aplicaciones, limitaciones y riesgos.
Se ha intentado por todos los medios que la información contenida en este manual
sea precisa y esté actualizada. No obstante, el fabricante se reserva el derecho de
modificar, alterar o mejorar de cualquier otra forma el generador y este documento en
cualquier momento y sin previo aviso.
Información importante sobre seguridad
El fabricante no puede prever todas las circunstancias posibles que podrían acarrear
riesgos. Por lo tanto, las advertencias incluidas en este manual, así como las etiquetas
y pegatinas colocadas sobre el aparato, no tienen carácter exhaustivo. Si utiliza
un procedimiento, método de trabajo o técnica que el fabricante no recomienda
específicamente, debe cerciorarse de que sea seguro para usted y otras personas.
También debe comprobar que el procedimiento, método de trabajo o técnica que haya
elegido no haga que el generador deje de ser seguro.
Símbolos de seguridad y control
El símbolo de alerta de seguridad indica un riesgo de lesiones físicas. Para
indicar el grado o nivel de gravedad del riesgo, se utiliza una palabra de señalización
(PELIGRO, ADVERTENCIA o PRECAUCIÓN) junto con el símbolo de alerta. Para
representar el tipo de riesgo, se puede utilizar un símbolo de seguridad. La palabra de
señalización AVISO se utiliza para designar prácticas no relacionadas con lesiones
físicas.
PELIGRO indica un riesgo que, de no evitarse, provocará lesiones graves o la
muerte.
ADVERTENCIA indica un riesgo que, de no evitarse, podría provocar lesiones
graves o la muerte.
PRECAUCIÓN indica un riesgo que, de no evitarse, podría provocar lesiones
leves o moderadas.
AVISO hace referencia a prácticas no asociadas a lesiones físicas.
ADVERTENCIA PELIGRO POR GAS TÓXICO. Los gases de escape del motor
contienen monóxido de carbono, un gas tóxico que puede matar en
cuestión de minutos. NO se puede percibir con la vista, el olfato ni el
tacto. Aunque no pueda oler los gases de escape, podría estar expuesto
a monóxido de carbono. Si empieza a sentirse mareado, débil o tiene
ganas de vomitar mientras utiliza este producto, desconéctelo y salga a tomar un
poco de aire fresco DE INMEDIATO. Acuda al médico. Puede que se haya
intoxicado con monóxido de carbono.
Utilice este producto EXCLUSIVAMENTE en el exterior, lejos de puertas, ventanas
y respiraderos, a fin de reducir el riesgo de que el monóxido de carbono se
acumule y penetre en espacios habitados.
Instale detectores de monóxido de carbono a pilas o conéctelos a una batería de
reserva siguiendo las instrucciones del fabricante. Los detectores de humo no
detectan el monóxido de carbono.
NO utilice este producto en hogares, garajes, sótanos, espacios reducidos,
cobertizos ni otros lugares parcialmente cerrados aunque haya ventiladores o las
puertas y las ventanas están abiertas para facilitar la ventilación. El monóxido de
carbono se puede acumular rápidamente en estos espacios y permanecer en ellos
durante horas incluso después de haber desconectado el producto.
Coloque SIEMPRE el producto en la dirección del viento y dirija el tubo de escape
del motor en dirección opuesta a cualquier posible espacio habitado.
ADVERTENCIA El retroceso (retracción rápida) del cable de arranque tirará de
la mano y el brazo hacia el motor con fuerza, por lo que podría causar
contusiones, esguinces, fracturas de huesos u otras lesiones graves.
Para arrancar el motor, tire lentamente del cable de arranque hasta que sienta
resistencia y entonces tire con rapidez para evitar el retroceso.
NUNCA arranque o pare el motor mientras haya dispositivos eléctricos
enchufados y encendidos.
ADVERTENCIA
La tensión generada puede causar quemaduras o descargas
eléctricas, que podrían acarrear lesiones graves o la muerte.
NO conecte el generador al sistema eléctrico de un edificio.
NO toque los receptáculos o cables pelados.
NO use el generador con cables eléctricos que estén desgastados, deshilachados,
pelados o deteriorados de algún otro modo.
NO utilice el generador bajo la lluvia o con mucha humedad ambiental.
