This is a Gasoline Powered Inverter Generator that offers clean power for electronics.

ENGINE SWITCH
The engine switch controls the ignition system. To start the generator, turn the POWER switch ON. Then the engine can be started by sliding the Choke lever to CHOKE then pull the Recoil. Allow the engine to run for a few seconds then slide the Choke Lever to OFF.
To Stop the generator, press POWER switch to STOP. The engine will not run.
ECONOMY CONTROL SWITCH
When the economy control switch is turned “ON”, the economy control unit controls the engine speed according to the connected load.
The results are better fuel connection and less noise. (Turn OFF when using less voltage.)
LOW OIL ALERT SENSOR
When the oil level falls below the acceptable level, the engine stops automatically. The engine will not start unless you refill with oil. $Buffalo- Tools-GEN1000I-Gasoline-Inverter-Generator-fig $3$$
OVERLOAD INDICATOR LIGHT
The overload indicator light flickers when an overload of a connected electrical device is detected. This situation shall not be kept for a long time and it just needs to decrease the loads to its normal range and the overload indicator light will go off. When it is detected the inverter unit overheats, or the AC output voltage decreases, the overload indicator light will come on and the electronic breaker will then activate, stopping power to the generation in order to protect the generator and any connected electric devices. The output pilot light (Green) will be off, the overload indicator light will turn RED, & the engine will stop. It is needed to process as follows:
- (a) Turn off any connected electric devices
- (b) Reduce the total wattage of connected electric.
- (c) Check for blockages in the cooling air inlet, muffler air exhaust pipe opening and the control unit & restart engine.
  The generator AC output automatically resets when the engine is stopped and then restarted. The overload indicator light may come on for a few seconds at first when using electric devices that require a large starting current, such as a compressor or a submersible pump. However, this is not a malfunction.
DC CIRCUIT PROTECTOR
The DC circuit protector turns off automatically when the load exceeds the generator-rated output. Reduce the load to within specified generator rated output if the DC circuit protector turns off.
FUEL COCK
The fuel cock is used to supply fuel from the tank to the carburetor. Turn ON when getting ready to start the generator. Turn OFF when finished using the generator.

CHECK ENGINE FUEL

Make sure there is sufficient fuel in the tank.
If fuel is low, refill with unleaded automotive gasoline.
Be sure to use the fuel filter screen on the fuel filter neck.
Recommended fuel: Unleaded gasoline.
Fuel tank capacity: 0.55 Gallon
Do not refill tank while engine is running or hot.
Close fuel cock before refueling with fuel.
Be careful not to admit dust, dirt, water or other foreign objects into fuel.
Do not fill above the top of the fuel filter or it may overflow when the fuel heats up later and expands.
Keep open flames away.

CHECK ENGINE OIL

Remove side panel, remove oil filler cap and check the oil level. Make sure the oil is at top of Lower Level line (See Figure 2).

WARNING: The generator has been shipped without engine oil. Fill with oil or it will not start.
Do not tilt the generator when adding engine oil. This could result in overfilling and damage to the engine
If oil level is below the lower line, add oil to top of Lower Level line. Screw in the oil filler cap when checking oil level.
Oil Type: SAE 10W30 Oil capacity: 7.5 ounces

GROUND

Ground this generator by tightening the grounding nut against a grounding wire. (See Figure 3) Use a No. 12 AWG (American Wire Gauge) stranded copper wire, which is generally considered an acceptable grounding wire. The other end of this grounding wire should be connected to a copper or brass grounding rod that is driven into the earth. Proper grounding of the generator will help prevent electrical shock in the event of a ground fault condition in the generator or in connected electrical devices. Proper grounding also helps dissipate static electricity, which often builds up in ungrounded devices.

STARTING THE ENGINE

Before starting the engine, do not connect electric apparatus.

Turn the fuel cock lever to the “ON” position.
Turn the fuel tank cap air vent knob clockwise to the “OPEN” position. Turn the engine switch to the “ON” or “RUN” position.

PUMP the PRIMER button until the glass bowl is full.
Pull the recoil starter handle slowly until resistance is felt. This is the “Compression” point. Return the handle to its original position and pull swiftly. Do not fully pull out the rope. After starting, allow the starter handle to return to its original position while still holding the handle. Grasp the handle firmly to prevent the generator from falling over when pulling the recoil starter.
Warm up the engine without a load for a few minutes.
Turn the choke lever to OPEN TO RUN position, then plug in appliances. $Buffalo-Tools-GEN1000I-Gasoline-Inverter-Generator-fig $9$$
