Consignes de sécurité
DANGER : risque de monoxyde de carbone
Using a generator indoors WILL KILL YOU IN MINUTES. Generator exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas that can cause unconsciousness or DEATH. Operate in well-ventilated, outdoor areas away from open windows or doors. Point exhaust away from occupied areas. Do not run generator in enclosed areas (e.g., not in house or garage). Move to fresh air and get medical help if sick, dizzy, or weak.
Always ensure the generator is placed on a level surface and away from any flammable materials. Keep children and pets away from the operating unit.

Installation
Ajout d'huile moteur
Before starting the generator for the first time, you must add engine oil. The generator is shipped without oil.
- Locate the oil fill cap on the side of the generator.
- Remove the side panel by unscrewing the two screws.
- Retirez le bouchon de remplissage d'huile/la jauge.
- Using the provided funnel, carefully add 5W-30 engine oil until it reaches the upper mark on the dipstick. The oil capacity is approximately 0.33 - 0.35 US Quarts (11.2 oz).
- Replace the oil fill cap and secure the side panel.

Ajout de carburant
Use only fresh, unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Do not use E85 fuel.
- Assurez-vous que le générateur est placé sur une surface plane et que le moteur est éteint et froid.
- Dévissez le bouchon de carburant.
- Carefully fill the fuel tank (capacity 1.18 Gallons) with gasoline, leaving a small air gap at the top to allow for fuel expansion.
- Remettez correctement le bouchon du réservoir d'essence.
Contrôles surview
Familiarize yourself with the control panel located on the front of the generator:
- Commutateur de moteur : A three-in-one switch for OFF, RUN, and CHOKE positions.
- Commutateur de mode Éco : Activates or deactivates Eco mode for improved fuel efficiency and quieter operation under light loads.
- Prises de courant alternatif 120 V 20 A : Two standard household outlets.
- Prise secteur 120 V CA 30 A : For higher power demands (e.g., RVs).
- Ports USB : Includes Type A and Type C ports for charging electronic devices.
- Prise CC 12 V : For 12-volt DC appliances.
- Circuit Breaker/Reset Button: Resets the circuit in case of an overload.
- Parallel Connection Ports: Allows connection of two compatible generators for increased power.
- Voyants lumineux : Displays status for Low Oil, Overload, and Output.

Mode d'emploi
Démarrage du générateur
- Ensure the generator has sufficient oil and fuel.
- Tournez le robinet d'essence sur la position « ON ».
- Move the engine switch to the 'CHOKE' position (if the engine is cold).
- Tirez fermement sur la poignée du lanceur à rappel jusqu'à ce que le moteur démarre.
- Once the engine starts, gradually move the engine switch to the 'RUN' position.
- Laissez le générateur chauffer pendant quelques minutes avant de brancher les charges électriques.

Mode Éco
The Eco Mode switch allows the generator to adjust engine speed based on the load, optimizing fuel consumption and reducing noise levels. For light loads, switch to 'ON' for quieter and more efficient operation. For heavy loads or when starting high-demand appliances, switch to 'OFF' to ensure full power is available.
Connexion des appareils
Connect your electrical devices to the appropriate outlets on the control panel. Ensure that the total wattagLa puissance des appareils connectés ne dépasse pas la puissance de fonctionnement du générateur.tage (1800W) to prevent overloading.
Fonctionnement parallèle
The Pulsar GD240N is equipped with parallel connection ports, allowing you to link two compatible Pulsar inverter generators together to double your power output. Refer to the parallel kit's instruction manual for detailed connection procedures.
Entretien
Regular maintenance is crucial for the optimal performance and longevity of your generator. Always ensure the engine is off and cool before performing any maintenance.
Changement d'huile moteur
Change the engine oil after the first 20 hours of use or the first month, whichever comes first. Subsequent oil changes should be performed every 100 hours or every 6 months.
- Placez un récipient approprié sous le bouchon de vidange d'huile.
- Remove the oil drain plug and the oil fill cap to allow the oil to drain completely.
- Once drained, replace the oil drain plug.
- Refill with fresh 5W-30 engine oil as described in the 'Adding Engine Oil' section.
Spark Plug Access
The spark plug is accessible for inspection and replacement. Remove the spark plug cover to access the spark plug. Inspect the spark plug for wear and proper gap. Replace if necessary.
Pare-étincelles
The generator is equipped with a spark arrestor, making it US Forestry approved. Regularly inspect and clean the spark arrestor to prevent carbon buildup, which can restrict exhaust flow and affect performance. Refer to the owner's manual for detailed cleaning instructions.

Dépannage
If your generator experiences issues, consult the following common troubleshooting tips:
Voyants lumineux
- Voyant bas niveau d'huile : If illuminated, check and add engine oil. The generator may shut down automatically to prevent engine damage.
- Lumière de surcharge : If illuminated, the generator is overloaded. Disconnect some devices and press the reset button.
- Lumière de sortie : A green light indicates normal power output.
Problèmes courants
- Le moteur ne démarre pas : Check fuel level, oil level, spark plug, and ensure the engine switch is in the correct position.
- Aucune puissance de sortie : Check for tripped circuit breakers, ensure the generator is not overloaded, and verify all connections.
