How to Use a Portable Small Generator?

Step-by-Step Guide: 

1. Read the Manual  

   - Carefully review the manufacturer’s instructions before operation.  

2. Choose a Safe Location  

   - Place the generator outdoors in a well-ventilated area (never indoors—risk of carbon monoxide poisoning).  

   - Keep it dry and stable (avoid rain, snow, or uneven ground).  

3. Check Fuel & Oil  

   - Use the recommended fuel type (gasoline/diesel).  

   - Ensure proper oil levels (refer to the manual for specifications).  

4. Start the Generator  

   - Turn the fuel valve ON.  

   - Set the choke (if cold starting).  

   - Pull the recoil cord or use the electric starter (if equipped).  

5. Connect Devices  

   - Plug appliances directly into the generator’s outlets or use a heavy-duty outdoor extension cord.  

   - Do not overload—ensure total wattage is below the generator’s rated capacity.  

6. Shut Down Properly  

   - Disconnect all devices first.  

   - Let the generator run briefly without load to cool down.  

   - Turn the fuel valve OFF to prevent carburetor clogging.  

### Safety Reminders:  

⚠️ Never use indoors or in enclosed spaces.  

⚠️ Avoid wet conditions to prevent electric shock.  

⚠️ Store fuel in approved containers away from heat sources.
