GENERATOR SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Honda generators are designed for use with electrical equipment that
has suitable power requirements. Other uses can result in inj
ury to the
operator or damage to the generator and other property.
Most injuries or property damage can be prevented if you follow all
instructions in this manual
and on the generator. The most common
hazards are discussed below, along with the best way to protect
yourself and others.
Operator Responsibility
Know how to stop the generator quickly in case of emergency.
Understand the use of all generator controls, output receptacles, and
connections.
Be sure that anyone who operates the generator receives proper
instruction. D
o not let children operate the generator without parental
supervision.
Carbon Monoxide Hazards
A generator's exhaust contains toxic carbon monoxide, which you
cannot see or
smell. Breathing carbon monoxide can KILL
YOU IN
MINUTES. To avoid carbon monoxide poisoning, follow these
instructions when operating a generator:
Only run a generator OUTSIDE, far away from windows, doors, and
vents.
Never operate a generator inside a house, garage, basement, crawl
spa
ce, or any enclosed or partially enclosed space.
Never operate a generator near open doors or windows.
Get fresh air and seek medical attention
immediately if you suspect
you
have inhaled carbon monoxide.
Early symptoms of carbon monoxide exposure include headache,
fatigue, shortness
of breath, nausea, and dizziness. Continued exposure
to carbon monoxide can cause loss of muscular coordination, loss of
consciousness, and then death.

GENERATOR SAFETY
To alert you to potentially dangerous levels of carbon monoxide
coming from a generator operating outside or from other sources,
install battery operated carbon monoxide alarms or plug-in carbon
monoxide alarms with battery back-up on every level of the home and
outside sleeping areas, according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Electric Shock Hazards
The generator produces enough electric power to cause a serious
shock or ele
ctrocution if misused.
Using a generator or electrical appliance in wet conditions, such as
rain or snow, or near a pool or sprinkler system
, or when your
hands are wet, could result in electrocution. Keep the generator dry.
If the generator is stored outdoors, unprotected from the weather,
check all of the electrical components on the control p
anel before
each use. Moisture or ice can cause a malfunction or short circuit in
electrical components that could result in electrocution.
Do not connect to a building’s electrical system unless an isolation
switch has been installed by a qualified electrician
.
Use only a Honda-approved parallel operation cable (optional
equipment) when connecting
two EU1000i generators for parallel
operation.
Never connect different generator models.
Fire and Burn Hazards
The exhaust system gets hot enough to ignite some materials.
Keep the generator at least 3 feet (1 meter) away from buildings
and other equipment during operation.
Do not enclose the generator in any structure.
Keep flammable materials away from the generator.
The muffler becomes very hot during operation and remains hot for
a while after stopping the engine. Be careful no
t to touch the muffler
while it is hot. Let the engine cool before storing the generator
indoors.

BEFORE OPERATION
ARE YOU READY TO GET STARTED?
Your safety is your responsibility. A little time spent in preparation will
significantly reduce your risk of inju
ry.
Knowledge
Read and understand this man
ual. Know what the controls do and how
to operate them.
Familiarize yourself with the generator and its operation before
you
begin using it. Know how to quickly shut off the generator in case of
an emergency.
If the generator is being used to power appliances, be sure that they do
not exceed the generator’s load rating (see pages 29 and
33).
IS YOUR GENERATOR READY TO GO?
For your safety, to ensure compliance with environmental regulations,
and to maximize th
e service life of your equipment, it is very important
to take a few moments before you operate the generator to check its
condition. Be sure to take care of any problem you find, or have your
servicing dealer correct it, before you operate the generator.
Improperly maintaining this generator, or
failing to correct a problem before operation,
could cause a malfunction in which you
could be seriously injured.
Always perform a pre-operation inspection
before
each operation, and correct any
problem.
31Z40600.book 19 ページ 2013年5月27日 月曜日 午前11時28分
20
BEFORE OPERATION
To prevent a possible fire, keep the generator at least 3 feet (1 meter)
away from building walls and other equipment during operation. Do not
place flammable objects close to the engine.
Before beginning your pre-operation checks, be sure the generator is on
a level and firm surface and the engine switch is in the OFF position.
Check the Engine
B
efore each use, look around and underneath the engine for signs of
oil or gasoline leaks.
C
heck the engine oil level (see page 45). A low engine oil level will
cause the Oil Alert system t
o shut down the
engine.
Check the air filter (see page 49). A dirty air filter will restrict air flow
to the carburetor, reducing engine and generator performance.
Check the fuel level (see page 43). Starting with a full tank will help

OPERATION
SAFE OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
Before operating the generator for the first time, review chapters
GENERATOR SAFETY
(see page 6) and
BEFORE OPERATION
(see page
19).
For your safety, do not operate the generator in an enclosed area such
as
a garage. Your generat
ors exhaust contains poisonous carbon
monoxide gas that can collect rapidly in an enclosed area and cause
illness or death.
Before connecting an AC appliance or power cord to the generator:
Use grounded 3-prong extension cords, tools, and appliances, or
double-insulated tools and appl
iances.
Inspect cords and plugs, and replace if damaged.
Make sure that the appliance is in good working order. Faulty
appliances or power cords can create a pote
ntial for electric shock.
Make sure the electrical rating of the tool or appliance does not
exceed the rated powe
r of the generator or the receptacle being
used.
Operate the generator at least 3 feet (1 meter) away from buildings
and other equipment.
Do n
ot operate the generator in an enclosed structure.
Do not place flammable objects close to the engine.
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon
monoxide gas that can build up to
dangerous levels in closed areas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause
unconsciousness or death.
Never run the generator in a closed, or even
partly closed area where people may be
present.

OPERATION
AC PARALLEL OPERATION
Before connecting an appliance to either generator, make sure that the
appliance is in good wo
rking order and that its electrical rating does not
exceed that of the receptacle.
Most motorized appliances require more than their electrical rating for
startup. When
an electric motor is started, the overload indicator (red)
may come ON. This is normal if the overload indicator (red) goes OFF
within 4 seconds. If the overload indicator (red) stays ON, consult your
generator dealer.
During parallel operation, the Eco-Throttle switch should be in the same
position on both
generators.
1.Connect the parallel operation cable (optional equipment) between
the two EU1000i
generators following the instructions supplied with
the parallel operation cable.
2.Start the engines (see page 22) and make sure the output indicator
(green) on each generator comes ON (see page 27).

OPERATION
ECO-THROTTLE
SYSTEM
With the switch in the ON position, engine speed is automatically
lowered when loads are reduced, turned off, or disconnected. When
appliances are turned on or reconnected, the engine returns to the
proper speed to power the electrical load. In the OFF position, the
Eco-Throttle
system does not operate.
Appliances with large start-up power demands may not allow the
engine to reach normal operating rpm when they are connected to the
generator
. Turn the Eco-Throttle switch to the OFF position and
connect the appliance to the generator. If the engine still will not reach
normal operating speed, check that the appliance does not exceed the
rated load capacity of the generator.
If high electrical loads are connected simultaneously, turn the
Eco-Throttle switch to the OFF position to reduce voltage changes.
The Eco-Throttle system is not effective for use with appliances or
tools that require only momentary power
. If the tool or appliance will
be turned ON and
OFF quickly, the Eco-Throttle switch should be in the
OFF position.
When using the DC output, turn the Eco-Throttle switch to the OFF

Connections to a Building’s Electrical System
Connections for standby power to a building’s electrical system must
be made by a qualified electr
ician. The connection must isolate the
generator power from utility power, and must comply with all
applicable laws and electrical codes.
In some areas, generators are required by law to be registered with
local utility companies. Check local regulations for proper registration
and use procedures.
System Ground
This generator has a syste
m ground that connects the generator frame
components to the ground terminals in the AC o
utput receptacles. The
system ground is not connected to the AC neutral wire.
Improper connections to a building’s
electrical system can allow current from the
generator to backfeed into the utility lines.
Such backfeed may electrocute utility
company workers or others who contact
the lines during a power outage, and the
generator may explode, burn, or cause fires
when utility power is restored.
Consult the utility company or a qualified
electrician prior to making any power
connections.

THE IMPORTANCE OF MAINTENANCE
Good maintenance is essential for safe, economical, and trouble-free
operation. It will also help reduce air pol
lution.
To help you properly care for your generator, the following pages
include a mainten
ance schedule, routine inspection procedures, and
simple maintenance procedures using basic hand tools. Other service
tasks that are more difficult or require special tools are best handled by
professionals and are normally performed by a Honda technician or
other qualified mechanic.
The maintenance schedule applies to normal operating conditions. If
you operate your generator u
nder unusual conditions, such as
sustained high-load or high-temperature operation, or use it in dusty
conditions, consult your servicing dealer for recommendations
applicable to your individual needs and use.
Remember that an authorized Honda servicing dealer knows your
generator best and is fully equipped to
maintain and repair it.
To ensure the best quality and reliability, use only new, Honda Genuine
parts or their equivalents for repair and replacement.
Maintenance, replacement,
or repair of the emission control devices
and systems

STORAGE
STORAGE PREPARATION
Proper storage preparation is essential for keeping your generator
trouble-free and looking good. The following steps will help to
keep
rust and corrosion from impairing your generator’s function and
appearance, and will make the engine easier to start when you use the
generator again.
Cleaning
Wipe the generator with a moist cloth. After the generator has dried,
touch up any damaged p
aint, and coat other areas that may rust with a
light film of oil.
Fuel
Depending on the region where you operate your equipment, fuel
formulations may deteriorate and oxidize rapidly. Fuel deterioration and
oxidation can occur in as little as 30 days and may cause damage to
the carburetor and/or fuel system. Please check with your servicing
dealer for local storage recommendations.
Gasoline will oxidize and deteriorate in storage. Old gasoline will cause
hard starting, and it leaves gum deposits that clog the fuel system. If
the gasoline in your generator deteriorates during storage, you may
need to have the carburetor and other fuel system components
serviced or replaced.
The length of time that gasoline can be left in your fuel tank and
carburetor
without causing functional problems will vary with such
factors as gasoline blend, your storage temperatures, and whether the
fuel tank is partially or
completely filled. The air in a partially filled fuel
tank promotes fuel deterioration. Very warm storage temperatures
accelerate fuel deterioration. Fuel deterioration problems may occur
within a few months, or even less if the gasoline was not fresh when
you filled the fuel tank.
The Distributor’s Limited Warranty does not cover fuel system damage
or engine performance pro
blems resulting from neglected storage
preparation.
You can extend fuel storage life by adding a gasoline stabilizer that is
formulated for that purpose, or you can
avoid fuel deterioration
problems by draining the fuel tank and carburetor.

STORAGE
STORAGE PRECAUTIONS
If your generator will be stored with gasoline in the fuel tank and
carburetor, it is i
mportant to reduce the hazard of gasoline vapor
ignition.
Select a well ventilated storage area away from any appliance that
operates with a fl
ame, such as a furnace, water heater, or clothes
dryer.
Also avoid any area with a spark-producing electric motor, or where
power tool
s are operated.
If possible, avoid storage areas with hi
gh humidity, because that
promot
es rust and corrosion.
Unless all fuel has been drained from the fuel tank, leave the engine
switch in the OFF posi
tion, and the
fuel filler cap vent lever in the OFF
position (see page 25) to reduce the possibility of leakage.
Place the generator on a level surface. Tilting or laying it on its side can
cause fuel or oil leakage.
With the engine and exhaust system cool, cover the generator to keep
out dust. A hot engine and exhau
st system can ignite or melt some
materials.
Do not use sheet plastic as a dust cover. A nonporous cover will trap
moisture around
the generator, promot
ing rust and corrosion.
REMOVAL FROM STORAGE
Check your generator as described in the BEFORE OPERATION chapter
of this manual (see page 19).
If the fuel was drained during storage
preparation, fill the tank with
fresh gasoline. If you keep a container of gasoline for refueling,
be sure
that it contains only fresh gasoline. Gasoline oxidizes and deteriorates
over time, causing hard starting.
If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage
prep
aration, the
engine may smoke briefly at startup. This is normal.

61
TRANSPORTING
Do not lay the generator on its side when moving, storing, or operating
it. Oil may leak and damage the engine or your property.
If the generator has been used, allow it cool for at least 15 minutes
before loading the generator on the transport vehicle. A hot engine and
exhaust system can burn you and can ignite some material.
To prevent fuel spillage when transporting, the generator should be
secured upright in its no
rmal operating position, with the engine switch
OFF and the fuel filler cap vent lever turned fully counterclockwise to
the OFF position (see page 25).
Take care not to drop or strike the generator when transporting. Do not
place heavy objects on the generator.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Carburetor Modification for High Altitude Operation
At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be too
rich. Performance will decrease, and fuel consumption will increase. A
very rich mixture wi
ll also foul the spark plug and cause hard starting.
Operation at an altitude that differs from that at which this engine was
certified, for extended periods of time, may increase emissions.
High altitude performance can be improved by specific modifications to
the carburetor. If
you always operate your generator at altitudes above
5,000 feet (1,500 meters), have your authorized Honda servicing
dealer perform this carburetor modification. This engine, when
operated at high altitude with the carburetor modifications for high
altitude use, will meet each emission standard throughout its useful
life.
Even with carburetor modification, engine horsepower will decrease
about 3.5% for each 1,000-foot
(300-meter) increase in altitude. The
effect of altitude on horsepower will be greater than this if no
carburetor modification is made.
When the carburetor has been modified for high altitude operation, the
air/fuel mixture will be too lean for low altitude use. Operation at
altitudes below 5,000 feet (1,500 meters) with a modified carburetor
may cause the engine to overheat and result in serious engine damage.
For use at low altitudes, have your servicing dealer return the
carburetor to original factory specifications.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Emission Control System Information
Source of Emissions
The combustion process produces carbon monoxide, oxides of
nitrogen, and h
ydrocarbons. Control of hydrocarbons and oxides of
nitrogen is very important because, under certain conditions, they react
to form photochemical smog when subjected to sunlight. Carbon
monoxide does not react in the same way, but it is toxic.
Honda utilizes appropriate air/fuel ratios and other emissions control
systems to reduce the emissio
ns of carbon monoxide, oxides of
nitrogen, and hydrocarbons.
Additionally, Honda fuel systems utilize components and control
technologies to reduce evaporative emissions.
The U.S. and California Clean Air Acts
EPA and Ca
lifornia regulations require all manufacturers to furnish
written instructions describing
the operation and maintenance of
emission control systems.
The following instructions and procedures must be followed in order to
keep the Honda engine emissions within the emission standards.
Tampering and Altering
Tampering is a violation of Federal and California law.
Tampering with or altering the emission control system may increase
emissions beyond the legal limit. Among those acts that constitute
tampering are:
Removal or alteration of any part of intake, fuel,
or exhaust systems.
A
ltering or defeating the governor linkage or speed-adjusting
mechanism to cause th
e engine to operate outside its design
parameters.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Problems That May Affect Emissions
If you are aware of any of the following symptoms, have your engine
inspected and repaired by your authorized Hond
a servicing dealer.
Hard starting or stalling after starting.
Rough idle.
Misfiring or backfiring under load.
Afterburning (backfiring).
Black exhaust smoke or high fuel consumption.
Replacement Parts
The emission control systems on your new Honda engine were
designed, built, and certified
to conform with applicable emission
regulations. We recommend the use of Honda Genuine parts whenever
you have maintenance done. These original-design replacement parts
are manufactured to the same standards as the original parts, so you
can be confident of their performance. The use of replacement parts
that are not of the original design and quality may impair the
effectiveness of your emission control system.
A manufacturer of an aftermarket part assumes the responsibility that
the
part will not adversely affect emission performance. The
manufacturer or
rebuilder of the part must certify that use of the part
will not result in a failure of the engine to comply with emission
regulations.
Maintenance
Follow the M
AINTENAN
CE SCHEDULE on page 42. Remember that
this schedule is based on the assumption that your generator will be
used for it
s designed purpose. Sustained high-load or high-temperature
operation, or use in dusty conditions, will require more frequent service.

delivery to the original retail purchaser or the length of the Honda
Distributor’s Limited Warranty, whichever is longer. This warranty is
transferable to each subsequent purchaser for the duration of the
warranty period.
If any emission-related part on your engine is
defective, the part will be
repaired or replaced by Honda without
charge for diagnosis, parts, or
labor. All defective parts replaced under this warranty become the
property of Honda. A list of warranted parts is on page 83. Normal
maintenance items, such as spark plugs and filters, that are on the
warranted parts list are warranted up to their required replacement
interval only.
Honda will also replace other engine
components damaged by a failure
of any warranted part during
the warranty period.
Only Honda-approved replacement parts may be used in the
performa
nce of any warranty repairs and must be provided without
charge to the owner. The use of replacement parts not equivalent to
the original parts may impair the effectiveness of your engine emission
control system. If such a replacement part is used in the repair or
maintenance of your engine, and an authorized Honda dealer
determines it is defective or causes a failure of a warranted part, your
claim for repair of your engine may be denied. If the part in question is
not related to the reason your engine requires repair, your claim will not
be denied.
