Operation adjustment: In light load scenarios such as phone charging and lighting fixtures, ECO mode can be activated to reduce fuel consumption and noise; In high load scenarios, ECO mode needs to be turned off to ensure power output.
(3) Shutdown and shutdown process
Disconnect all loads and let the equipment run without load for 3-5 minutes to stabilize the internal temperature.
Press the "Start/Stop" button on the control panel for 1 second or the "OFF" button on the remote control for 1 second to shut down the engine.
Turn off the battery switch (if not in use for a long time, disconnect the battery connector), tighten the fuel tank cap, and clean the surface of the equipment with debris.
If stored for a long time, fuel and engine oil should be handled according to the "Storage Specification" (see "Storage Requirements" below for details).
(4) Parallel operation (expansion requirement)
Prepare two compatible Westinghouse iGen5000 generators, ensuring that both have been shut down and the ECO mode is in the "OFF" position.
Use a dedicated parallel cable (Westinghouse 507PC) to connect the parallel interfaces of two devices, ensuring that the left and right cable connections correspond (building power supply needs to be matched, direct power supply can be ignored).
Start one generator first, wait for the "output ready" LED to light up, then start the second one. After both devices are stable, connect the loads in sequence, and the total load should not exceed the sum of the rated power of the two devices (7800W).
When shutting down, all loads should be disconnected first, then the two generators should be shut down in sequence, and finally the parallel cables should be disconnected.
Maintenance and upkeep standards
(1) Regular maintenance cycle and project
Key operational points for core projects in the maintenance cycle
Before each use, check the oil level and place the equipment horizontally. Take out the dipstick and wipe it clean before inserting it (without tightening), and observe that the oil level is between "L-H"
First 25 hours/1 month engine oil change. When the engine is warm, drain the oil, replace the new oil to the dipstick mark, and replace the oil drain bolt washer (Part # 94007)
Every 50 hours/6 months, the cycle of oil change and air filter cleaning in harsh environments (dusty, high temperature) needs to be shortened; Clean the air filter with household detergent, dry it, soak it in oil and squeeze it until there is no excess oil
Spark plug maintenance every 100 hours/6 months+spark eliminator cleaning Spark plug cleaning Carbon deposits, check electrode status, adjust gaps if abnormal; Spark eliminator uses a wire brush to clean carbon deposits
Replace spark plug every 300 hours/1 year+replace air filter Replace original spark plug (Part # 97109-F7RTC) and foam air filter (Part # 5691) to ensure smooth air intake
Fuel treatment and battery maintenance before long-term storage, emptying the fuel tank or adding fuel stabilizer, disconnecting the connector after the battery is fully charged, and recharging once a month
(2) Key component maintenance details
1. Maintenance of air filter
Remove the engine service cover, rotate the air filter box knob to unlock it, take out the foam air filter, soak it in warm water+household detergent for cleaning, slowly squeeze (no twisting) until there is no dirt.
After rinsing with clean water, let it air dry naturally in a well ventilated area, then immerse it in clean 10W-30 engine oil and squeeze to remove excess oil (excessive oil can cause smoke during startup).
If the air filter is damaged or cannot be cleaned, replace the original parts (Part # 5691) directly. During installation, ensure that the air filter box is well sealed to prevent dust from entering the engine.
2. Oil change process
Run the equipment for 10 minutes until the oil is warm, then disconnect the spark plug wire from the battery connector after stopping to avoid accidental start-up.
Place the oil pan, remove the oil drain bolt and rubber plug, completely drain the oil, install a new washer and tighten the drain bolt.
Slowly add new oil from the oil filling port, check the dipstick multiple times to ensure that the liquid level is between "L-H" and not too full, and tighten the dipstick and oil inspection cover.
3. Battery maintenance
The device will automatically charge the battery during operation, and the basic power can be restored in 30-60 minutes; When not in use for a long time, use the included charger to charge for 8 hours (no more than 12 hours), and recharge once a month.
Battery replacement: Disconnect the battery connector, loosen the fixing strap, remove the old battery, and connect the new battery (Part # 511019) according to the "red+positive pole, white - negative pole" connection. Put on a rubber protective sleeve to ensure that the fixing strap is securely fastened.
Batteries contain sulfuric acid electrolyte, and protective gloves and goggles should be worn during operation to avoid contact with skin and clothing. Used batteries should be recycled according to local regulations.
