ASSEMBLY INSTALLING THE WHEELS See Figure 6. Wheels are provided to assist in moving the generator to the desired location and should be installed on the same side as the handle.  Locate the following items: 2 axles 2 hitch pins 2 washers 2 wheels  Raise the end of the generator where the handle is located high enough to gain access to the frame bottom; securely position props underneath to support.  Slide the axle through the hole in the center of the wheel.  Slide a washer onto the axle, then slide the axle into the wheel mounting hole as shown.  Insert hitch pin to secure. NOTE: The hitch pin should be pushed into the axle until the center of the pin rests on top of the axle.  Repeat with the second wheel. CONNECTING/DISCONNECTING BATTERY See Figure 7. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrocution or explosion, do not short circuit the battery terminals or charge in a sealed container. Keep sparks and flame away. WARNING: Keep metal objects away from the battery terminals. Metal objects can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together can cause sparks, burns, or a fire. The battery cables must be connected before the electric start feature of the generator can be operated.  Connect the red wire to the positive (+) terminal first, then connect the black wire to the negative (-) terminal. Make sure all connections are tight. NOTE: Be careful not to short across the terminals when installing. Shorting the terminals together can cause sparks, damage to the battery or generator, or even burns or explosions.  Cover the terminals with the rubber covers. When removing the battery for replacement: disconnect the negative (black) post, then the positive (red) post, being careful not to short across the terminals. Always abide by the safety warnings provided with the battery. Remove the battery and dispose of according to local and state regulations. Page 12 - English
