One of the worst things you can do for a generator is have it run out of fuel when it's under a load - (i.e. charging a battery, running the air conditioner.) It doesn't hurt the engine, it just dies, but it can hurt the electrical generator part. It's not a good practice if you want your generator to last a long time.

Well it looks like I need to change my practice then. Too bad the instruction manual did say that. Or maybe I just didn't read that part.

Thanks for the tip.
