installation precautions
1.
ensure installation meets all applicable safety, and local and national electri-
cal codes. Have installation performed by a qualified, licensed electrician and
building contractor.
2.
3.
all electrical work, including the earth-ground connection, should be com-
pleted by a licensed electrician.
if the generator is installed indoors, exhaust fumes must be piped
out of the building using leak-free, heat-resistant piping. use the
Generator only in well ventilated outdoor areas. carbon monoxide
fumes are a colorless, odorless gas that, if inhaled, can cause seri-
ous injury or death. Pipes and silencer should not use any flammable
materials, nor should they be installed near the same. Generator exhaust fumes
must be within legal limits.
4.
5.
if the generator is installed outdoors, it must be weatherproofed and should
be soundproofed. It should not be run outdoors without protection to the Generator
and wiring conduit. Install sound- and weather-proofing only when it is not raining
or snowing to avoid trapping moisture within the Generator’s area.
the supporting floor/ground surface should be level, and strong enough to
safely hold the weight of the Generator. If the floor/ground surface is not level,
strong cross members should be placed under the full length of the Generator
Frame at its low side.
6.
1.
for trailer installation, the Generator should be mounted on the center point
of the trailer, over the wheels.
fire and eXplosion precautions
Gasoline fuel and fumes are flammable, and potentially explosive. Use proper
fuel storage and handling procedures. Always have multiple ABC class fire extin-
guishers nearby.
2.
3.
keep the Generator and surrounding area clean at all times.
when spills of fuel or oil occur, they must be cleaned up immediately. Dispose
of fluids and cleaning materials as per any local, state, or federal codes and regula-
tions. Store oil rags in a covered metal container.
4.
5.
never store fuel or other flammable materials near the Generator.
do not smoke, or allow sparks, flames or other sources of ignition around the
engine and fuel tank. Keep grounded conductive objects, such as tools, away
from exposed, live electrical parts and connections to avoid sparking or arcing.

6.
7.
do not refill the fuel tank while the engine is running or while the engine is
still hot. Do not operate the Generator with known leaks in the fuel system.
excessive buildup of unburned fuel gases in the exhaust system can create
a potentially explosive condition. This buildup can occur after repeated failed
start attempts, valve testing, or hot engine shutdown. If this occurs, open exhaust
system drain plugs, if equipped, and allow the gases to dissipate before attempting
to restart the Generator.
8.
any separate Generator fuel storage facility must be built/installed in full
compliance with all relevant local, state, and federal regulations.
MecHanical precautions
do not operate the Generator with safety guards removed. While the Generator
is running, do not attempt to reach around the safety guards for any reason.
electrical precautions

all connections and conduits from the Generator to the load must only be
installed by trained and licensed electricians, and in compliance with all
relevant local, state, and federal electrical codes and standards, and other
regulations where applicable.
2.
3.
4.
the Generator must be earth-grounded in accordance with all relevant electri-
cal codes and standards before operation.
do not attempt to connect or disconnect load connections while standing in
water, or on wet or soggy ground.
insulate all connections and disconnected wires. Do not touch electrically en-
ergized parts of the Generator and interconnecting cables or conductors with any
part of the body, or with any non-insulated conductive object.
5.
connect the generator only to a load or electrical system (110/120 volt) that
is compatible with the electrical characteristics and rated capacities of the
Generator.
6.
7.
before servicing equipment powered by the Generator, disconnect the equip-
ment from its power input.
keep all electrical equipment clean and dry. Replace any wiring where the
insulation is cracked, cut, abraded or otherwise degraded. Replace terminals that
are worn, discolored, or corroded. Keep terminals clean and tight.

2.
It is recommended to locate and install the Generator outdoors where cooling air
is readily available.
Install the Generator so that the air inlets and outlets are not blocked by obstruc-
tions such as bushes, trees, or snow drifts. Locating it in the path of heavy winds
or snowdrifts may require the placement of a barrier for protection. The air inlet, in
normal weather conditions, should face the prevailing wind direction.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Install the Generator on a concrete slab or other area where rain drainage or flood
waters can not reach it.
Generator placement should allow four feet of access to all sides for mainte-
nance.
Place the Generator as close as possible to the electrical tools and equipment be-
ing powered to reduce the length of extension cords.
If the Generator in located indoors the Engine exhaust must be ventilated to the
outdoors using leakproof, heat resistant, flexible, metal, flex tubing.

Allow the Engine to run for several seconds. Open the Choke Control (80) swing-
ing it to the right.
to power 110/120 Volt ac tools and equipment:
1.
prior to powering tools and equipment, make sure the Generator’s rated watt-
age capacity (1000 w) is adequate to supply all electrical loads that the unit
will power. If powering exceeds the Generator’s capacity, it may be necessary
to group one or more of the tools and/or equipment for connection to a separate
Generator.
2.
Only start the Generator with no loads attached. Once the Generator is running,
simply connect the Power Cords of 110/120 volt AC powered tools and equipment
into the 110/120 volt AC Outlets (54a).
note: The Generator features an AC Circuit Protector (53a) to protect the AC
circuit in case of an overload. Should an overload occur the Breaker will “trip” to
its “off” position, causing the Generator to automatically shut down and the Pilot
Light (56a) on the control panel will shut off to show that the Circuit Protector (53a)
has been tripped. For details on preventing this problem, refer to Step #1 above in
this section. Then, reset the circuitry system by pressing on the Circuit Protector.

precautions, and charging procedures as included with the battery you will recharge.
batteries contain corrosive acid that can cause blindness or severe injury;
always wear splash-resistant ansi-approved safety goggles and work gloves
when handling batteries. Also, have a nearby area with water and baking soda
available to allow you to wash quickly in the event of an emergency. Wash thor-
oughly after working on or near batteries.
1.
Only start the Generator with no loads attached. Once the Generator is running,
with the Charging Plug (60a) disconnected, connect the Charging Battery Clamps
(60a) to the terminals (red clamp to positive, + terminal, and black clamp to negative,
– terminal) of the 12 V lead-acid battery to be charged if a regulator is not available.
This Generator provides raw output to the battery charging outlet that is not regulated;
incorporating an inline regulator is strongly recommended while charging.
2.
To start the charging process, connect the Charging Plug (60a) to the Battery Charg-
ing Outlet (57a). Do not leave the battery unattended while it is charging.
note:The Generator features a DC Circuit Protector (59a) to protect the DC circuit
in case of an overload. Should an overload occur the Breaker will “trip” to its “off”
position, causing the Generator to automatically shut down and the Pilot Light (56a)
on the control panel will shut off to show that the Circuit Protector (59a) has been
tripped. This problem may be caused by a defective battery, a large or high capacity
battery that needs to be charged by another means, or other problems. Reset the
circuitry system by pressing on the Circuit Protector.
3.

sembling the Air Filter Cover (67).
to reMoVe tHe spark pluG:
warninG! to access the spark plug, the fuel tank (8a) must be removed.
carefully make sure that the engine is thoroughly cool,that no ignition sources
(including lit cigarettes) are nearby, that rags for cleaning up spills and a
class abc fire extinguisher is nearby, and that you have a suitable place to
temporarily put the gas tank during work.
a. First, make sure that the Fuel Valves (9a, 81) are both turned to their OFF posi-
tions. Secure the Fuel Valve (9a) under the Fuel Tank closed using a string or
cable tie if possible.
b. Have a rag ready to promptly clean up the small amount of fuel that will spill and
disconnect the fuel line from the Fuel Valve (9a) under the Fuel Tank (8a). Use
a small cap to cover the end of the fuel valve to prevent debris from entering.
c. Remove the four Bolts (4a) and other hardware from the corners of the FuelTank
(8a). Make sure to note the order of the hardware that secures the Fuel Tank to
the Frame – it is important that the fuel tank is reinstalled in the same fashion.
d. Gently remove the Fuel Tank and set it aside without tipping it, being careful not
to damage the Fuel Valve under the Tank.
e. Now you have access to remove the Spark Plug (44) without difficulty. Care-
fully check that the spark plug and wire are both in good condition and securely
attached before reassembly.

length of coverage
HFT warrants to a first retail purchaser and each subsequent
purchaser that the engine is free from defects in materials
and workmanship that cause the failure of warranted parts
for a period of two (2) years after the date of delivery to the
first retail purchaser.
warranty statement
The California Air Resources Board (herein CARB), the United
States Environmental Protection Agency (herein EPA), and Harbor
®
Freight Tools (herein HFT) are pleased to explain the emission
control system warranty on your 1995 and later Small Off-Road
Engine (herein engine). In California, the engine must be de-
signed, built and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog
standards. Elsewhere within the United States, new off-road,
spark-ignition engines certified for model year 1997 and later, must
meet similar standards set forth by the EPA. HFT must warrant
the emission control system on your engine for the periods of time
described below, provided there has been no abuse, neglect or
improper maintenance of your engine.
no charge repair or replacement
Repair or replacement of any warranted part will be performed
at no charge to the owner if the work is performed through a
warranty station authorized by HFT. For emissions warranty
service, contact the HFT Customer Service Department at
1-800-444-3353.

4.
consequential damages coverage
Coverage under this warranty shall also extend to the failure of
any engine components caused by the failure of any warranted
part while it is still covered under this warranty.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the
carburetor or fuel-injection system, and the ignition system. Also
included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other emission-
related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, HFT will repair your engine
at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
coverage exclusions
Warranty claims shall be filed in accordance with the provi-
sions of the HFT warranty policy explained in the box at the
top of the previous page. HFT shall not be liable for any loss
of use of the engine, for any alternative usage, for any damage
to goods, loss of time, or inconvenience. Warranty coverage
shall also be excluded for any part which fails, malfunctions,
or is damaged due to failure to follow the maintenance and
operating instructions set forth in the Owner’s Manual includ-
ing, but not limited to:
Manufacturer’s warranty coverage
The 1995 and later engines are warranted for two (2) years. If any
emission-related part on your engine is defective, the part will be
repaired or replaced by HFT.
Harbor freight tools emission

part will be repaired or replaced by HFT.
(c) failure to follow recommendations on fuel use contained
in the Owner’s Manual
(d) improper or inadequate maintenance of any warranted
parts

-
As the engine owner, you are responsible for the performance
of the required maintenance listed in your Owner’s Manual.
HFT recommends that you retain all receipts covering main-
tenance on your engine, but HFT cannot deny warranty
solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the
performance of all scheduled maintenance.
(f) alterations by changing, adding to or removing parts from
the engine.

service and Maintenance
-
-
As the engine owner, you should, however, be aware that
HFT may deny you warranty coverage if your engine or a part
has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or
unapproved modifications.
Component parts which are not scheduled for replacement
as required maintenance or are scheduled only for regular
inspection to the effect of “repair or replace as necessary”
are warranted for the warranty period. Any warranted part
which is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance
is warranted for the period of time up to the first scheduled
replacement point for that part. Any replacement part, pro-
vided it is equivalent in durability and performance, may be
used in performance of maintenance or repairs. The owner
is responsible for commissioning a qualified technician/me-
chanic to perform all required maintenance, as outlined in
the Maintenance and cleaning sections on page 13-14 of
this manual.
You are responsible for shipping your engine to a HFT war-
ranty station as soon as a problem exists. Contact the HFT
Customer Service department at the number below to make
shipping arrangements. The warranty repairs should be
completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30
days.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and re-
sponsibilities, you should contact the Harbor FreightTools Customer
Service Department at 1-800-444-3353.
