  • Do not use generator with electrical cords which are worn, frayed, bare, or otherwise damaged.
  • All electrical tools and appliances operated from this generator must be properly grounded by use of a third wire or be double-insulated.
  • When this generator is used to supply a building wiring system the generator must be installed by a qualied electrician and connected to a transfer switch as a separately derived system in accordance with NFPA 70, National Electrical Code.
  • If you begin to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using the generator, move to fresh air IMMEDIATELY. See a doctor, as you can have carbon monoxide poisoning.
  • Only use OUTSIDE and far away from windows, doors, and vents as recommended by the US Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Your specic home and/or wind conditions may require additional distance.
  • While operating and storing, keep at least ve feet of clearance on all sides of the generator, including overhead. Allow the generator to cool a minimum of 30 minutes before storage. Heat created by the mufer and exhaust gases could be hot enough to cause serious burns and/or ignite combustible objects.
  • Do not touch the mufer or engine. They are very HOT and will cause severe burns. Do not put body parts or any ammable or combustible materials in the direct path of the exhaust.
  • Always remove any tools or other service equipment used during maintenance away from the generator before operating.
  • Avoid skin contact with engine oil or gasoline. Wear protective clothing and equipment. Wash all exposed skin with soap and water. FUEL SAFETY
  • Store fuel in a container approved for gasoline.
  • Shut down the engine and allow it to cool for two minutes before adding gasoline or oil to the generator.
  • Never remove the fuel cap when the generator is running. Shut off the engine and allow the unit to cool at least two minutes. Remove the fuel cap slowly to release pressure, keep fuel from escaping around the cap, and to avoid the heat from the mufer igniting fuel vapors. Tighten the fuel cap securely after refueling.
  • Wipe spilled fuel from the unit.
  • Never attempt to burn off spilled fuel.
  • Never overll the fuel tank. Leave room for fuel to expand. Overlling the fuel tank can result in a sudden overow of gasoline and result in spilled gasoline coming in contact with HOT surfaces.
  • Spilled fuel can ignite. If fuel is spilled on the generator, wipe up any spills immediately. Dispose of rag properly. Allow area of spilled fuel to dry before operating the generator.
  • Wear eye protection while refueling.
  • Never use gasoline as a cleaning agent.
  • Store any containers containing gasoline or LPG/ propane in a well-ventilated area, away from any combustibles or source of ignition. GASOLINE AND GASOLINE VAPOR (GAS) Fire and explosion hazard. Gasoline and LPG/propane are highly explosive and ammable and can cause severe burns or death.
  • In case of a gas re, do not attempt to extinguish the ame if the fuel tank valve is in the ON position. Introducing an extinguisher to a generator with an open fuel valve could create an explosion hazard.
  • Gas has a distinctive odor, this will help detect potential leaks quickly.
  • Gas vapors can cause a re if ignited.
  • Gasoline is a skin irritant and needs to be cleaned up immediately if it comes in contact with the skin.Westinghouse Outdoor Power Equipment | 7 SAFETY LIQUID PETROLEUM GAS (LPG/PROPANE) Fire and explosion hazard. Never use a gas container, LPG/propane connector hose, LPG/propane tank or any other fuel item that appears to be damaged. Fire and explosion hazard.

Do not allow tanks to be near any heat source. When transporting and storing, turn the propane tank valve to the fully closed position and disconnect the tank. Make sure to always cover the generator inlet and tank outlet with protective plastic caps.
  • LPG/Propane is highly ammable and explosive.
  • Flammable gas under pressure can cause a re or explosion if ignited.
  • LPG/Propane can settle in low places because it is heavier than air.
  • LPG/Propane has a distinctive odor added to help detect potential leaks.
  • Always keep a LPG/Propane tank in an upright position.
  • When exchanging LPG/propane tanks, be sure the tank valve is the same type.
  • In case of a LPG/propane re, do not attempt to extinguish unless the fuel supply can be shut off safely.
  • LPG/propane will burn the skin. Prevent skin contact at all times.
  • Keep the propane tank away from the generator exhaust.
  • A step down regulator is required when using LPG/ propane tanks over 100 gallons. The pressure as measured at the regulator mounted to the generator must be 7” to 14” of water column.
  • Large (500–1000 gallon) LPG/propane tanks will require a certied plumber to install the fuel line to the generator and the loose regulator is not used (the regulator that is attached to the fuel tank). The pressure as measured at the regulator mounted to the generator must be 7” to 14” of water column. A certied plumber must ensure that the pressure is correct or install a step down regulator if needed. Fire and explosion hazard. If there is a strong smell of propane while operating the generator, fully close the LPG/propane tank valve immediately. Once the propane is off, use soapy water to check for leaks on the hose and connections on the tank valve and the generator.

Appliance and power tool manufacturers usually list rating information near the model or serial number. To determine power requirements:

1. Select the items you will power at the same time.

2. Total the continuous (running) watts of these items. This

is the amount of power the generator must produce to keep the items running. See the wattage reference chart on the next page.

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: Tool or ApplianceRunning Watts*Starting Watts*RV Air Conditioner (11,000 BTU) 1010 1600TV (Tube Type) 300 0RV Refrigerator 180 600Radio 200 0Light (75 Watts) 300 0Coffee Maker 600 02590 Total Running Watts*1600 Highest Starting Watts*Total Running Watts 2590Highest Starting Watts + 1600Total Starting Watts Needed 4190*Wattages listed are approximate. Verify actual wattage. POWER MANAGEMENT To prolong the life of the generator and attached devices, use care when adding electrical loads to the generator. There should be nothing connected to the generator outlets before starting the engine. The correct and safe way to manage generator power is to sequentially add loads as follows:

1. With nothing connected to the generator, start the

engine as described in this manual.

2. Plug in and turn on the rst load, preferably the largest

smoothly and attached device operates properly).

4. Plug in and turn on the next load.

5. Again, permit the generator to stabilize.

6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each additional load.

Extension cords running directly into the home increase the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning through any openings. If an extension cord running directly into your home is used to power indoor items, there is a risk of carbon monoxide poisoning to people inside the home. Always use battery-powered carbon monoxide detector (s) that meet current UL 2034 safety standards when running the generator. Regularly check the detector (s) battery. Asphyxiation hazard. When operating the generator with extension cords, make sure the generator is located in an open, outdoor area, far away from occupied spaces with exhaust pointed away. Fire and electrocution hazard. Never use worn or damaged extension cords. Damaged or overloaded extension cords could overheat, arc, and burn resulting in death or serious injury. Before connecting an AC appliance or power cord to the generator:

  • Use grounded 3-prong extension cords, tools, and appliances, or double-insulated tools and appliances.
  • Make sure the tool or appliance is in good working order. Faulty appliances or power cords can create a potential for electric shock.
  • Make sure the electrical rating of the tool or appliance does not exceed the rated power of the generator or the receptacle being used.

EXTENSION CORD SIZING

Only use grounded 3-prong extension cords marked for outdoor use that are rated for the electrical load. ST SWITCH The generator is compatible with the Westinghouse ST Switch, purchased separately. When utility power is on it will provide power (up to 120V @ 20A) to the appliances plugged into the 5-20R receptacle on the ST Switch. When utility power is lost the ST Switch automatically transfers input power from utility to generator power. When utility power is restored, the ST Switch transfers input power back to utility. Visit www.westinghouseoutdoorpower.com for more information.22 | Westinghouse Outdoor Power Equipment OPERATION TRANSPORTING Weight hazard. Always have assistance when lifting the generator.

plate and bolts. Tighten the bolts securely. NOTICE Dispose of the used battery properly according to the guidelines established by your local or state government. STORAGE Proper storage preparation is required for trouble-free operation and generator longevity. NOTICE Gasoline stored for as little as 30 days can deteriorate, causing gum, varnish, and corrosive buildup in fuel lines, fuel passages, and the engine. This corrosive buildup restricts the ow of fuel, which can prevent the engine from starting after a prolonged storage period. The use of fuel stabilizer signicantly increases the storage life of gasoline. Full-time use of fuel stabilizer is recommended. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use.

STORAGE TIME RECOMMENDED PROCEDURE

Less than 1 month No service required. 2 to 6 months Fill with fresh gasoline and add gasoline stabilizer. Drain the carburetor oat bowl. 6 months or longer Drain the fuel tank and carburetor oat bowl.Westinghouse Outdoor Power Equipment | 27 MAINTENANCE
