You could put your attenuator at either setting. Personally, I would run it at 8 ohms, as it will have to dissipate less heat that way.
With an 8 ohm load, your amp can probably produce about 20 watts. If you read the specs closely, you'll see that it can produce up to 40 watts into a 4 ohm load (if you added an extension cabinet).
Good luck.
