A power generator includes a supporting frame, a generator supported by
the supporting frame, and an engine mechanism including an engine driving
the generator and a recoil starter for starting the engine via starter
cable. The power generator further includes a hand-free starter
arrangement which includes a foot pedal movably supported by the
supporting frame and a transmission unit coupling a pulling end of the
starter cable with the foot pedal to transmit the downward stepping force
of the foot pedal to a pulling force of the starter cable. A downward
displacement of the foot pedal is corresponding to an operation length of
the starter cable to start the engine such that when the foot pedal is
depressed, the starter cable is pulled with the operation length to start
the engine in a hand-free manner.
