3. PRE-OPERATION CHECK CAUTION: Be sure to check the generator on a level surface with the engine stopped. 1. Check the engine oil level. CAUTION: Engine oil is a major factor affecting engine performance and service life. Non-detergent or vegetable oils are not reommended. Use Honda cl-stroke oil, or an equivalent high detergent, premium quality m[...]

NOTE: vyhen the oil runs lower than the specified level during operation, the oil alert switch automatically turns off to protect the engine from overheating. If this occurs, add oil to the top of the filler hole neck, then turn the switch on and restart the engine according to the instructions. OIL ALERT SWITCH 5[...]

2. Check the fuel level. Use any regular grade automotive gasoline (unleaded gasoline is preferred) with a pump octane rating of 86 or higher. Never use an oil/gasoline mixture or dirty gasoline. Avoid getting dirt, dust or water in the fuel tank. CAUTION: Gasoline substitutes are not recommended; they may be harmful to the fuel system components. [...]

3. Make sure that the AC circuit breaker is OFF and that nothing is con- nected to the DC terminals. The generator may be hard to start if a load is connected. AC ClRCUlT BREAKER DC TERMINALS[...]

5. GENERATOR USE w To prevent electrical shock from faulty appliances, the generator should be grounded. Connect a length of heavy wire between the ground terminal and the ground source. CAUTION: l Limit operation requiring maximum power (EM3000: 3.0kVA. EM4000: 4.0 kVA) to 30 minutes. For continuous operation, do not exceed the ‘rated power of 2[...]

AC applications 1. Start the engine and make sure the pilot lamp comes on. If not, the filament may be burnt out. 2. Turn the voltage selector switch to either position as required. When the switch is turned to “120V ONLY” position, you can use only 120V AC. At “12OVf24OV” position, you can use both 120V and 240V sources. 3. Switch on the A[...]

DC application The DC terminals may be used for charging 12 volt automotive-type batteries only. m Batteries produce explosive gases. Keep sparks, flames, and cigarettes away. To prevent the possibility of creating .a spark near the battery, connect charging cables first to the battery, then to the generator, and disconnect cables first at the gene[...]

6. STOPPING THE ENGINE To stop the engine in an emergency, turn the engine switch OFF. In normal use: 1. Turn the AC circuit breakers OFF and or disconnect the charging leads at the DC terminals. AC CIRCUIT BREAKER 2. Turn the engine switch OFF. -ENGINE SWITCH 14[...]

Refi[...]

AIR CLEANER CLIP c i ‘CLIP Air cleaner service A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor. To prevent carburetor malfunction, service the air cleaner regularly (page 20). Service more frequently when operating the generator in extremely dusty areas. m Never use gasoline or low flash point solvents for cleaning the air cleaner el[...]

2. Wash the element in a non-flammable or high flash point solvent and dry it thoroughly. 3. Soak the element in clean engine oil and squeeze out the excess oil. 4. Reinstall the air cleaner element and the cover. 20[...]

Fuel filter service The filter prevents dirt or water which may be in the fuel tank from entering the carburetor. If the engine has not been run for a long time, the filter should be cleaned. I. Turn the fuel valve OFF. Remove the filter cup. 2. Clean the cup thoroughly. 3. Reassemble. Do not damage the rubber gasket. m After installing the filter [...]

Spark plug service Recommended spark plug: BPR4HS-10 (NG K) W14FPR-ULlO (ND) To ensure proper engine operation, the spark plug .must be properly gapped and free of deposits. 1. Remove the spark plug cover. 2. Clean any dirt from around the spark piug base. 3. Remove the spark plug cap. PLbG CAP 22[...]

4. Use the wrench supplied in the tool kit to remove the spark plug. 5. Visually inspect the spark plug. Discard it if the insulator is cracked or chipped. 6. Measure the plug gap with a feeler gauge. The gap should be 0.9-1.0 mm (0.035-0.039 in). Correct as necessary by bending the side electrode. 7. Attach the plug washer. Thread the plug in by h[...]

Spark arrester maintenance w If the generator has been running, the muffler will be very hot. Allow it to cool before proceeding. CAUTION: The spark arrester must be serviced every 100 hours to maintain its efficiency. 1. Loosen the bolts and nuts and remove the muffler. 2. Loosen two 8mm bolts to remove the exhaust pipe. 3. Check the muffler exhau[...]

d. Drain the carburetor by loosening the drain screw. Drain the gasoline into a suitable container. DRAIN / SCREW e. Pull the starter grip until resistance is felt; the piston is coming up on its compression stroke. At this position, the exhaust and intake valves are closed, and this will help protect the engine from corrosion. STARTER GRIP 26[...]

9. TROUBLESHOOTING A. When the engine wil! not stati: 1. Is there enough fuel? 2. Is the fuel valve on? 3. Is gasoline reaching the carburetor? To check, loosen the drain screw with the fuel valve on. m If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before testing the spark plug or starting the engine. Fuel vapor or spilled fuel may ignite. DRAI[...]

a. Remove the spark plug cover and cap. Clean any dirt from around the spark plug base, then remove the spark plug. b. Install the spark plug in the plug cap. c. Turn the engine switch on. d. Turn the oil alert switch on. e. Grounding the side electrode to the stay, pull the recoil starter to see if sparks jump across the gap. ENGINE SWITCH GROUNDI[...]

B. When the engine starts but stops immediately: Is there enough oil in the crankcase? If not, the oil alert switch will turn off after starting. C. No electricity at the AC receptacles: 1. Are the AC circuit breakers on? 2. Check the electrical appliance or equipment for any defects. D. No electricity at the DC terminals: 1. Is the DC circuit prot[...]
