experienced symptoms while indoors, have someone call the fire department to determine when it is safe to re-enter the building.

Never operate the generator in an explosive atmosphere, near combustible materials or where ventilation is not sufficient to carry away exhaust fumes. Exhaust fumes can cause serious injury or death.

NEVER use a generator indoors, including in homes, garages, base-ments, crawl spaces, and other enclosed or partially-enclosed areas, even with ventilation. Opening doors and windows or using fans will not prevent carbon monoxide build-up in the home.

Follow the instructions that come with your generator. Locate the unit outdoors and away from doors, windows, and vents that could allow the carbon monoxide gas to come indoors.

ONLY run generator outdoors and away from air intakes.

NEVER run generator inside homes, garages, sheds, or other semi-enclosed spaces. These spaces can trap poisonous gases EVEN IF you run a fan or open doors and windows.

If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using the generator, shut if off and get fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may have carbon monoxide poisoning.

Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms or plug-in carbon monoxide alarms with battery back-up in your home, according to the manufacturer's installation instructions. The carbon monoxide alarms should be certified to the requirements of the latest safety standards for carbon monoxide alarms. (UL 2034, IAS 6-96, or CSA 6.19.01).

Test your carbon monoxide alarm frequently and replace dead batteries.

SAFETY WARNING WHEN REFUELING

Gasoline is extremely flammable and its vapors can explode if ignited.

Observe all safety regulations for the safe handling of fuel. Handle fuel in safety containers. If the container does not have a spout, use a funnel.

Do not overfill the fuel tank, leave room for the fuel to expand.

Do not refill fuel tank while the engine is running. Before refueling the generator, turn it off and let it cool down. Gasoline spilled on hot engine parts could ignite.

Fill the tank only on an area of bare ground. While fueling the tank, keep heat, sparks and open flame away. Carefully clean up any spilled fuel before starting engine.

Always fill fuel tank in an area with plenty of ventilation to avoid inhaling dangerous fumes.

NEVER store fuel for your generator in the home. Gasoline, propane, kerosene, and other flammable liquids should be stored outside of living areas in properly-labeled, non-glass safety containers. Do not store them near a fuel-burning appliance, such as a natural gas water heater in a garage. If the fuel is spilled or the container is not sealed properly, invisible vapors from the fuel can travel along the ground and can be ignited by the appliance's pilot light or by arcs from electric switches in the appliance.

ELECTRICAL HAZARDS

THERE IS A PERMANENT CONDUCTOR BETWEEN THE GENERATOR (STATOR WINDING) AND THE FRAME.

CAUTION: NOT FOR INTERRUPTING CURRENT.

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.

DANGER - IMPROPER CONNECTION OF THE EQUIPMENT-GROUNDING CONDUCTOR CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF ELECTROCUTION. CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN OR SERVICE PERSON IF YOU ARE INDOUBT AS TO WHETHER THE UNIT IS PROPERLY GROUNDED.

This generator is equipped with a grounding terminal for your protection. Always complete the ground path from the generator to an external ground source as instructed in the section labeled “Grounding Instructions” in the Preparation section of this manual.

The generator is a potential source of electrical shock if not kept dry. Keep the generator dry and do not use in rain or wet conditions. To protect from moisture, operate it on a dry surface under an open, canopy-like structure. Dry your hands if wet before touching the generator.

Plug appliances directly into the generator. Or, use a heavy duty, outdoor-rated extension cord that is rated (in watts or amps) at least equal to the sum of the connected appliance loads. Check that the entire cord is free of cuts or tears and that the plug has all three prongs, especially a grounding pin.

NEVER try to power the house wiring by plugging the generator into a wall outlet, a practice known as “back feeding”. This is an extremely dangerous practice that presents an electrocution risk to utility workers and neighbors served by the same utility transformer. It also bypasses some of the built-in household circuit protection devices.

If you must connect the generator to the house wiring to power appliances, have a qualified electrician install the appropriate equipment in accordance with local electrical codes. Or, check with your utility company to see if it can install an appropriate power transfer switch.

For power outages, permanently installed stationary generators are better suited for providing backup power to the home. Even a properly connected portable generator can become overloaded. This may result in overheating or stressing the generator components, possibly leading to a generator failure.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY, READ THIS OPERATOR'S MANUAL COMPLETELY BEFORE USING. WHEN USING THIS PRODUCT, THE FOLLOWING BASIC PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED:

1. Read all the instructions before using the product.

2. Do not enclose the generator nor cover it with a box. The generator has a built-in forced air cooling system, and may become overheated if it is enclosed. If generator has been covered to protect if from the weather during non use, be sure to remove it and keep it well away from the area during generator use.

3. Operate the generator on a level surface. It is not necessary to prepare a special foundation for the generator. However, the generator will vibrate on an irregular surface, so choose a level place without surface irregularities.

If the generator is tilted or moved during operation, fuel may spill and/or the generator may tip over, causing a hazardous situation.

Proper lubrication cannot be expected if the generator is operated on a steep incline or slope. In such a case, piston seizure may occur even if the oil is above the upper level.

1. Pay attention to the wiring or extension cords from the generator to the connected device. If the wire is under the generator or in contact with a vibrating part, it may break and possibly cause a fire, generator burnout, or electric shock hazard. Replace damaged or worn cords immediately.

2. Do not operate in rain, in wet or damp conditions, or with wet hands. The operator may suffer severe electric shock if the generator is wet due to rain or snow.

3. If wet, wipe and dry it well before starting. Do not pour water directly over the generator, nor wash it with water.

4. Be extremely careful that all necessary electrical grounding procedures are followed during each and every use. Failure to do so can be fatal.

5. NEVER try to power the house wiring by plugging the generator into a wall outlet, a practice known as "back feeding". This is an extremely dangerous practice that presents an electrocution risk to utility workers and neighbors served by the same utility transformer. It also bypasses some of the built-in household circuit protection devices.

If you must connect the generator to the house wiring to power appliances, have a qualified electrician install the appropriate equipment in accordance with local electrical codes. Or, check with your utility company to see if it can install an appropriate power transfer switch.

1. No smoking while charging a battery. The battery emits flammable hydrogen gas, which can explode if exposed to electric arcing or open flame. Keep the area well-ventilated and keep open flames / sparks away when charging a battery.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1. Engine becomes extremely hot during and for some time after operation. Keep combustible materials well away from generator area. Be very careful not to touch any parts of the hot engine especially the muffler area or serious burns may result.

2. Keep children and all bystanders at a safe distance from work area.

3. It is absolutely essential that you know the safe and proper use of the power tool or appliance that you intend to use. All operators must read, understand and follow the tool / appliance owners manual. Tool and appliance applications and limitations must be understood. Follow all directions given on labels and warnings. Keep all instruction manuals and literature in a safe place for future reference.

4. Use only "LISTED" extension cords. When a tool or appliance is used outdoors, use only extension cords marked "For Outdoor Use". Extension cords, when not in use should be stored in a dry and well ventilated area.

CONTROLS

GENERATOR SWITCH:

Turn the generator switch to the choke position when starting the engine. Refer to Starting the Engine – Recoil Start. Turn the generator switch to the on position "I" once it has been started. To turn off the generator, turn the generator switch to the off "0" position.

LOW OIL, OUTPUT AND OVERLOAD LAMP:

This generator is equipped with 3 Display LEDs that indicate Low Oil, Overload, and Output Power. The low oil indicator will illuminate red when there is an insufficient amount of oil in the crankcase. The overload indicator will illuminate red when there is a short circuit in a connected load, or the generator is overloaded. The output power indicator will illuminate green when the generator is in normal operation.

PARALLEL CONNECTIONS:)

Two parallel ready generators can be connected together to increase the total power available to a load by using the parallel receptacles. The system seamlessly matches frequency and automatically distributes the load to each generator so one is not overloaded. Follow the parallel kit (sold separately) instructions for connection and use of a parallel kit.

IDLE CONTROL:

This generator is equipped with an idle control switch. When in the on position "I" the engine will vary speed to match the required power output to conserve fuel, and reduce wear and noise.

Note: If loads requiring intermittent power, or multiple large loads are connected, turn the electronic speed control switch off "O" to avoid possible engine stall. To avoid extended warmup time, keep the electronic speed control off until normal operating temperatures have been reached.

AC/DC CIRCUIT BREAKERS:

The generator comes equipped with circuit breakers that protect the unit and the load from short circuit or overload conditions. If the circuit breaker opens, determine why the circuit breaker tripped before closing the circuit breaker.

WARNING: DO NOT PUT FOREIGN OBJECTS INTO THE PLUG RECEPTACLE.

CAUTION: DO NOT PLUG MORE THAN TWO APPLIANCES INTO THE GENERATOR AT A TIME.

CAUTION: IF CIRCUIT BREAKER CONTINUES TO TRIP, CHECK APPLIANCE FOR DEFECT. IF GENERATOR IS MALFUNCTIONING, SEE YOUR AUTHORIZED MI-T-M SERVICE CENTER.

20 A 325 VAC GPC

NEVER INTERFERE WITH THE OPERATION OF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER KNOB OR KEEP PUSHING IT IN THE "ON" POSITION.

USB RECEPTACLES:

The generator comes equipped with a double USB receptacle. The top is a 5V 1A USB port and the bottom is a 5V 2.1A USB port.

LOW OIL LEVEL SHUTDOWN:

The generator is equipped with a low oil level shutdown that is designed to protect the engine from damage caused by an insufficient amount of oil in the crankcase. When the oil level in the crankcase falls below the safe operating limit, the low oil level light will illuminate and the engine will automatically shutdown.

CO DETECTOR (SHUT OFF SYSTEM)

The (carbon monoxide) CO Detector monitors the accumulation of CO gas while the generator is running and will shut off the engine if the levels become dangerously high. The CO Detector on this generator is not a substitute for an indoor CO alarm.

Whenever the CO Detector has shut off the engine there will be a light on the control panel that indicates the reason. Read the CO Action Label for the next steps to take.

If the CO Detector light is flashing “red” you must leave the area immediately and relocate to an open outdoor area. Ventilate the area thoroughly before occupying again. Ensure the generator is located in an open outdoor area with the exhaust pointed away from occupied structures. If anyone experiences dizziness, headaches, nausea, or tiredness get to fresh air immediately and seek medical attention.

If the CO Detector light is a constant “yellow” then a system fault has occurred, or it is indicating that it has reached the end of its life. This fault can only be diagnosed and repaired by an Authorized Service Provider.

The CO Detector monitors the accumulation of CO gas from all sources in the area around the generator. If the CO Detector light is flashing “red” this is not an error and safety measures must be taken immediately.

Note: Tampering with the CO Detector could result in hazardous conditions and must be avoided.

Note: The generator must not be operated in ambient temperatures greater than 131^ F ( 55^ C) as this can damage the CO Detector.

OPTIMAL GENERATOR OPERATING CONDITIONS

• Temperature: 23°F to 104 °F (-5°C to 40°C)
• Humidity below 95%
- Height above sea level: < 3000 feet (900 m). If the height of the operating area is over 900 m high, output power will be reduced.

CONNECTION TO HOUSEHOLD POWER SUPPLY

This generator must be installed in accordance with all applicable local laws and electrical codes. The generator must be isolated from the utility and the connection must be verified by a qualified electrician.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.

DANGER - IMPROPER CONNECTION OF THE EQUIPMENT-GROUNDING CONDUCTOR CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF ELECTROCUTION. CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN OR SERVICE PERSON IF YOU ARE IN DOUBT AS TO WHETHER THE UNIT IS PROPERLY GROUNDED.

The ground terminal on the frame must always be used to connect the generator to a suitable ground source. The ground path should be made with #8 size wire. Connect the grounding wire securely to the ground terminal. Connect the other end of the wire securely to a suitable ground source.

The National Electric Code contains several practical ways in which to establish a good ground source. Examples given below illustrate a few of the ways in which a good ground source may be established.

A metal underground water pipe in direct contact with the earth for at least 10 feet can be used as a grounding source. If an pipe is unavailable, an 8 foot length of pipe or rod may be used as the ground source. The pipe should be 3/4 inch trade size or larger and the outer surface must be noncorrosive. If a steel or iron rod is used it should be at least 5/8 inch diameter and if a nonferrous rod is used it should be at least 1/2 inch diameter and be listed as material for grounding. Drive the rod or pipe to a depth of 8 feet. If a rock bottom is encountered less than 4 feet down, bury the rod or pipe in a trench. All electrical tools and appliances operated from this generator, must be properly grounded by use of a third wire or be "Double Insulated".

It is recommended to:

1. Use electrical devices with 3 prong power cords.
2. Use an extension cord with a 3 hole receptacle and a 3 prong plug at the opposite ends to ensure continuity of the ground protection from the generator to appliance.

We strongly recommend that all applicable federal, state and local regulations relating to grounding specifications be checked and followed.

Black-and-white warning sign showing a hand breaking through a lightning bolt symbol (no text or numbers present)

AC USAGE

Do NOT overload the generator. Exceeding the rated power of the generator can damage the generator and the electrical devices connected to it.

Motor-driven devices require a large starting current. Make sure that the total power requirement of these types of loads does not exceed the rated power of the generator.

When the generator is used to power multiple loads or electric appliances, start by connecting the appliance with the highest starting power requirements, followed by the second highest and ending with the lowest.

HIGH ALTITUDE KIT

At higher altitudes, the standard air-fuel mixture is too rich and will cause decreased performance and increased fuel consumption. A rich mixture will also foul the spark plug and make starting difficult. Operation at higher altitudes for extended periods of time may increase emissions.

Proper operation can be ensured by installing an altitude kit when required. High altitude kits should be installed by a qualified technician. Contact an authorized service provider if the portable generator will be operated at altitudes greater than 3000 feet (0.9 km) above sea level.

Note: At elevations greater than 8000 feet above sea level, the engine may experience decreased performance even with the high altitude kit installed.

PRE-OPERATION
