Wiring diagram for a petrol generator required

[RonOz]

I’m looking for the wiring diagram for a petrol-driven electric generator. My web searches have yielded little. Possibly, someone on this forum has a source.

My little generator has lost its spark and consequently won’t start. It’s possible I can fix this by fumbling around. I’d rather locate some technical documentation if available – a technical manual. Which could be useful to have should other problems arise.

It’s an “Atomic” 700 watt generator. Model Ai700x. https://www.vektools.com.au/atomic-...-item-please-contact-us-for-alternatives.html Web searches for atomic tend to return the wrong kind of results.

The generator is probably Chinese and may sold by a variety of names. Here’s an example of a different generator that looks identical: https://www.amazon.com.au/GenTrax-Inverter-Generator-Portable-Camping/dp/B07NVKVT2D?th=1

If it’s the case these small generators are all the same except for their names, the manual to any small inverter generator may well suit my needs.

Take it to a small engine repair shop.

Too late for that. I have it in pieces. Do you have any documentation?

Take the pieces to a small engine repair shop.
If you can't diagnose a small engine not starting, diagrams won't help.

The engines for those units tend to be the same, but are seen as simple blocks. Take the spark system apart and try and identify th parts then buy spares.

Or buy one on eBay and replace the engine.

To be safe, I'd better take it to a repair shop. The spark model might be CMR6A(TORCH).

The engines for those units tend to be the same.

Chances are they all come from the same factory, but get different brand names stuck onto them as they leave the factory. I'm hoping that's the case. A good suggestion about eBay. I've had been looking on Facebook. Seen nothing to date.

Waross, if someone came to me with a box of disassembled parts I'd laugh and tell them to piss off.

Circuit diagrams are like a road map. They avoid guesswork. They provide some insight into how things work. A simple example: These machines often have a low oil cutout. That could be the reason there is no spark. So, will the switch be normally open or normally closed? Will it be hooked up to the ignition circuit side of things or simply a switch to earth? Or is it simply a warning lamp and has no impact on the ignition circuit? There may well be other things a circuit diagram could help me with. I won't know until I see it.

I found a user manual but I am guessing its not what you where looking for.

Thanks for that RedSnake. It was good of you to look. I found that one too. Though, I already have a paper copy as well. I got excited when I spotted the web address on the last page of the manual, but when I checked it found that address is dead.

I'm really surprised I couldn't find the Chinese factory's web address. All I get is sites from companies wanting to sell products; not any that manufacture them.

You can still buy Atomic generators. Just not the one I have. I think I'll email the service dept of one of the retailers to see if they have anything they can send me.
