· When this generator is used to supply a building wiring system the generator must be installed by a qualified 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 specific home and/or wind conditions may require additional distance.
· While operating and storing, keep at least 5 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 muffler and exhaust gases could be hot enough to cause serious burns and/or ignite combustible objects.
· Do not touch the muffler or engine. They are very HOT and will cause severe burns. Do not put body parts or any flammable 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.
· Do not smoke when filling the generator with gasoline. · Do not allow the generator's gas tank to overflow when
filling. · Shut down the engine and allow it to cool for five
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 five minutes. Remove the fuel cap slowly to release pressure, keep fuel from escaping around the cap, and to avoid the heat from the muffler igniting fuel vapors. Tighten the fuel cap securely after refueling.

· Wipe spilled fuel from the unit.
· Never attempt to burn off spilled fuel.
· Never overfill the fuel tank. Leave room for fuel to expand. Overfilling the fuel tank can result in a sudden overflow 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 in a wellventilated area, away from any combustibles or source of ignition.
GASOLINE AND GASOLINE VAPOR (GAS)
Fire and explosion hazard. Gasoline is highly explosive and flammable and can cause severe burns or death. · In case of a gas fire, do not attempt to extinguish the
flame if the fuel valve is in the gas 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 fire if ignited. · Gasoline is a skin irritant and needs to be cleaned up
immediately if it comes in contact with the skin. When starting the generator: · Make sure that the fuel cap, air filter, spark plug, fuel
lines, and exhaust system are properly in place.
· If you spill any gasoline on the tank, allow it to fully evaporate before operating.
· Make sure the generator is on a flat surface before operating.
When transporting or servicing the generator: · Disconnect the spark plug wire to prevent accidental
starting. When storing the generator: · Store away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat,

OPERATION

OPERATION

GENERATOR LOCATION
Read and understand all safety information before starting the generator.

Asphyxiation hazard. Place the generator in a well-
ventilated area. DO NOT place the generator near vents
or intakes where exhaust fumes could be drawn into occupied or confined spaces. Carefully consider wind and air currents when positioning generator.

GROUNDING

NEVER operate the generator inside any building, including garages, basements, crawlspaces, sheds, enclosure, or compartment, including the generator compartment of a recreational vehicle.
Electrocution hazard. Never use the generator in a location that is wet or damp. Never expose the generator to rain, snow, water spray, or standing water while in use. Protect the generator from all hazardous weather conditions. Moisture or ice can cause a short circuit or other malfunction in the electrical circuit. Using a generator or electrical appliance in wet conditions, such as rain or snow, or near a pool or sprinkler system, or when your hands are wet, could result in electrocution

Shock hazard. Failure to properly ground the generator can result in electric shock.
The generator neutral is floating. The generator ground terminal is connected to the frame of the generator, the metal non-current-carrying parts of the generator, and the ground terminals of each receptacle. The generator (stator winding) is isolated from the frame and from the AC receptacle ground pin. Electrical devices that require a grounded receptacle pin connection may not function properly.
If this generator will be used only with cord and plug equipment connected to the receptacles mounted on the generator, National Electric Code does not require that the unit be grounded. However, other methods of using the generator may require grounding to reduce the risk of shock or electrocution.
Before using the ground terminal, consult a qualified electrician, electrical inspector, or local agency having jurisdiction for local codes or ordinances that apply to the intended use of the generator.
NOTICE
Only use grounded 3-prong extension cords, tools, and appliances, or double-insulated tools and appliances.

Fire hazard. Only operate the generator on a solid, level surface. Operating the generator on a surface with loose material such as sand or grass clippings can cause debris to be ingested by the generator that could block cooling vents or the air intake system. Allow the generator to cool for 30 minutes before transport or storage.
The generator should be on a flat, level surface at all times (Even while not in operation). The generator must have at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) of clearance from all combustible material.
Do not operate the generator in the back of a SUV, camper, trailer, truck bed (regular, flat, or otherwise), under stairs, next to walls or buildings, or in any other location that will not allow for adequate cooling of the generator and/or the muffler. DO NOT contain generators during operation.

HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION
Engine power is reduced the higher you operate above sea level. Output will be reduced approximately 3.5% for every 1000 feet of increased altitude from sea level.
High altitude adjustment is required for operation at altitudes over 5,000 ft. (1524 m). Operation without this adjustment will cause decreased performance, increased fuel consumption, and increased emissions. Operation of the engine at altitudes below 2,000 ft. (762 m) with the high altitude kit is not recommended.
NOTICE
Do not operate the generator at altitudes below 2,000 ft. (762 m) with the high altitude kit installed. Engine damage may occur.

Marginal overloading that temporarily illuminates the OVERLOAD LED may shorten the service life of the generator.
OVERLOAD on the control panel will illuminate red and the green OUTPUT READY will be OFF.

ECO MODE

NOTICE
Always start the generator with ECO MODE OFF. Allow the engine speed to stabilize and the OUTPUT READY LED to illuminate before switching ECO MODE ON.

Note: Do not use ECO MODE when in parallel operation with another Westinghouse generator.
ECO MODE minimizes fuel consumption and noise by adjusting the engine RPM to the minimum required for the current load.

Turn ECO MODE OFF when powering large surge loads such as an air conditioner or electric pump.
To turn on ECO MODE, verify that the OUTPUT READY LED is illuminated green, then push the switch to the ON position. If no load is present, the generator RPM will drop to idle speed. The generator will detect loads as they are applied and increase engine RPM.
To run the generator at maximum power and RPM, push the ECO MODE switch to the OFF position.
AC CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The circuit breakers will automatically switch OFF if there is a short circuit or a significant overload of the generator at each receptacle. The main circuit breaker will automatically switch OFF if the combined load of the receptacles exceeds 31 Amps.
If an AC circuit breaker switches OFF automatically, check that the appliance is working correctly and it does

To restore AC output:
1. Turn off and unplug all connected electrical loads.
2. Push the RESET button on the control panel until the OVERLOAD LED goes OFF and the OUTPUT READY LED is illuminated.
3. Reset the circuit breakers if OFF.
4. Verify that the intended running and surge loads do not exceed the generator's capacity.
5. Reconnect electrical loads sequentially, allowing the generator to stabilize after each load is connected.
GENERATOR CAPACITY
NOTICE
Do not overload the generator's capacity. Exceeding the generator's wattage/amperage capacity can damage the generator and/or electrical devices connected to it. Make sure the generator can supply enough continuous (running) and surge (starting) watts for the items you will power at the same time. The total power requirements (Volts x Amps = Watts) of all

Westinghouse Outdoor Power Equipment, LLC | 15

OPERATION

appliances connected must be considered. 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.

EXTENSION CORDS

Asphyxiation hazard. 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.

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:

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.

1. With nothing connected to the generator, start the engine as described in this manual.
2. Plug in and turn on the first load, preferably the largest load you have.
3. Permit the generator output to stabilize (engine runs smoothly and attached device operates properly).

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

OPERATION

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.

separately) is also compatible. This cord can be purchased from an authorized Westinghouse Generator dealer.
Note: Compatible Westinghouse generators without parallel ports can be operated in parallel with the receptacle-mounted parallel cable, Part# 260041.
NOTICE
DO NOT use ECO MODE during parallel operation if powering large surge loads such as an air conditioner or electric pump. Engine rpm may not adjust quickly enough to provide the voltage requirements of large surge loads, causing damage to the devices or the generators.

PARALLEL OPERATION
Fire and electrocution hazard. Never connect or disconnect the parallel cord leads when a generator is running.

1. On both generators, make sure the engine/fuel switch and the ECO MODE switch are in the OFF position.
2. Connect two parallel cable leads to the parallel outlets on the first generator, then connect the opposite cable leads to the other generator's parallel outlets.
Note: If powering devices directly from the generators (not connected to a building's transfer switch), you do not need to match the left/right cables to the generator's parallel outlets.
3. Start one of the generators and wait until the OUTPUT READY LED illuminates.
4. Start the second generator and wait until the OUTPUT READY LED illuminates before connecting a load.
5. Connect additional loads as described in Power Management section.
6. Unplug all loads before stopping the generators.

Correct connection of the left and right cables is very important when the generators are used with a transfer switch to suppy power to a building. To avoid serious personal injury or damage to electrical devices, including the generators, do not try to power an electrical system in a building without using an approved transfer switch.
NOTICE
Connecting to a generator that is not compatible can cause a low voltage output that can damage tools and appliances powered by the generator.
Parallel operation gives you the ability to link to a compatible Westinghouse Inverter Generator with the included parallel cord for combined running and peak power output.

OPERATION
TRANSPORTING
Weight hazard. Always have assistance when lifting the generator. · Allow the generator to cool a minimum of 30 minutes
before transporting. · Replace all protective covers on the generator control
panel. · Only use the generator's fixed handle(s) to lift the unit
or attach any load restraints such as ropes or tie-down straps. Do not attempt to lift or secure the generator by holding onto any of its other components. · Keep the unit level during transport to minimize the possibility of fuel leakage or, if possible, drain the fuel or run the engine until the fuel tank is empty before transport. · The generator wheels are only intended for hand transport. The wheels are not suitable for towing the generator either on or off-road. · Use the extendable handle for one-person, hand transport. To deploy the handle, push on the locking button and pull on the handle until it's fully extended. To stow it, push on the locking button and push on the handle until it's fully retracted. Only extend or retract the handle while the generator is OFF, stationary, and resting on a horizontal surface. Do not use the extendable handle to lift the generator entirely off the ground, tow it, or up-end it.
Fire hazard. Do not fully up-end the generator. Fuel or oil can leak and damage to the generator may occur.

MAINTENANCE

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 flow of fuel, which can prevent the engine from starting after a prolonged storage period. The use of fuel stabilizer significantly increases the storage life of gasoline. Full-time use of fuel stabilizer is recommended. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for use.

DRAINING THE FLOAT BOWL
1. Remove the engine service cover.
2. Locate the drain hose extending from the bottom of the carburetor float bowl.

STORAGE TIME RECOMMENDED PROCEDURE

Less than 1 month No service required.

2 to 6 months 6 months or longer

Fill with fresh gasoline and add gasoline stabilizer. Drain the carburetor float bowl. Drain the fuel tank and carburetor float bowl.

SHORT TERM STORAGE

· Allow the generator to cool a minimum of 30 minutes before storage.
· Replace all protective covers on the generator control panel.
· Wipe the generator with a moist cloth. Clean any debris from the air inlets under the control panel and muffler cooling vents.
· Store the generator in a well-ventilated, dry location away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and other sources of ignition such as areas with a sparkproducing electric motor or where power tools are operated.
· Do not store the generator or gasoline near furnaces, water heaters, or any other appliances that produce heat or have automatic ignitions.
· With the engine and exhaust system cool and all surfaces dry, cover the generator to keep out dust. Do not use a plastic sheet as a dust cover. Non-porous materials trap moisture and promote rust and corrosion.

LONG TERM STORAGE
Even properly stabilized fuel can leave residue and cause corrosion if left long term. If storing the generator for two to six months, drain the float bowl to prevent gum and varnish buildup in the carburetor.

3. Place the loose end of the hose outside the generator into an approved gasoline container to catch the drained fuel.
4. Loosen the float bowl drain screw and allow the fuel to drain. Tighten the float bowl drain screw.
5. Route the drain hose between the air cleaner housing and the engine service cover. Install the engine service cover.
DRAINING THE FUEL TANK If storing the generator for longer than six months, drain the fuel tank to prevent fuel separation, deterioration, and deposits in the fuel system.
1. Unscrew the fuel tank cap. Remove the fuel screen filter by slightly compressing it while removing it from the tank.
2. Using a commercially available gasoline hand pump (not included), siphon the gasoline from the fuel tank into an approved gasoline container. DO NOT use an electric pump.
3. Reinstall the fuel screen filter and the fuel tank cap.
4. Start the generator and allow it to run until the generator engine stops.

5. Push the battery switch to the OFF position.

6. Disconnect the battery quick-connect plug.

7. Remove the spark plug.
