SAFETy RULES
Improper treatment or use of the generator can
damage it, shorten its life and void your warranty.
Use the generator only for intended uses.
Operate only on level surfaces.
DO NOT expose generator to excessive moisture,
dust, or dirt.
DO NOT allow any material to block the cooling slots.
If connected devices overheat, turn them off and
disconnect them from the generator.
DO NOT use the generator if:
– Electrical output is lost
– Equipment sparks, smokes or emits flames
– Equipment vibrates excessively
CAUTION
Operation of this equipment may create sparks that
can start fires around dry vegetation.
A spark arrestor may be required. The operator
should contact local fire agencies for laws or
regulations relating to fire prevention requirements.
WARNING
Rapid retraction of the starter cord will pull hand and
arm towards the engine faster than you can let go.
Unintentional startup can result in entanglement,
traumatic amputation or laceration.
Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains could result.
When starting engine, pull the starter cord slowly
until resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid
kickback.
DO NOT start or stop the engine with electrical
devices plugged in.
WARNING
LIQUID PETROLEUM GAS (LPG) IS HIGHLY
FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
Unintentional startup can result in entanglement,
traumatic amputation or laceration.
Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG):
– LPG IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE.
– Flammable gas under pressure can cause a fire
or explosion if ignited.
– LPG is heavier than air and can settle in low
places while dissipating.
– LPG has a distinctive odor added to help detect
potential leaks quickly.
– In any petroleum gas fire, flames should not be
extinguished unless by doing so the fuel supply
valve can be turned OFF. This is because if a
fire is extinguished and a supply of fuel is not
turned OFF, then an explosion hazard could be
created.
– When exchanging LPG cylinders, be sure the
cylinder valve is of the same type.
– Always keep the LPG cylinder in an upright
position.
When starting the generator:
DO NOT attempt to start a damaged generator.
Make certain that the gas supply, air filter, spark
plug, fuel lines and exhaust system are properly in
place.
Make certain that the generator is resting firmly on
level ground.
When operating the generator:
DO NOT move or tip the generator during operation.
DO NOT tip the generator or allow oil to spill.
When transporting or servicing the generator:
Make certain that the fuel shutoff valve is in the off
position and the LPG cylinder is not attached.
Disconnect the spark plug wire.
When storing the generator:
Store away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights,
heat and other sources of ignition.
DANGER
Exceeding the generator’s running capacity can
damage the generator and/or electrical devices
connected to it.
DO NOT overload the generator.
Start the generator and allow the engine to stabilize
before connecting electrical loads.
Connect electrical equipment in the off position,
and then turn them on for operation.
Turn electrical equipment off and disconnect before
stopping the generator.
DO NOT tamper with the governed speed.
DO NOT modify the generator in any way.
CAUTION
