DANGER: CARBON MONOXIDE
Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES. Generator exhaust contains carbon
monoxide. This is a colorless, odorless, poisonous gas that if not avoided, will result in death or
serious injury.
NEVER use a generator inside homes, garages, or any partly enclosed area. Even if doors or
windows are open, deadly levels of carbon monoxide can build up in these areas. ONLY use
generators outside and far away from windows, doors and vents. These openings can pull in
generator exhaust. Operate at least 20 feet from occupied buildings. Even if you use a
generator correctly, carbon monoxide may leak into a home.
ALWAYS use a battery-powered or battery-backup carbon monoxide alarm. If you start to feel
sick, dizzy or weak after the generator has been running, move to fresh air IMMEDIATELY. See
a doctor, as you could have carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING:
This generator produces powerful voltage, which can result in electrocution.
ALWAYS ground the generator before using it. See the “Ground the Generator” portion of the
Generator Preparation section of this manual for details.
WARNING:
Generator should only be plugged into electrical devices, either directly or with an
extension cord. NEVER connect to a building electrical system without a qualified electrician.
Such connections must comply with local electrical laws and codes. Failure to comply can
create a back-feed, which may result in serious injury or death to utility workers.
Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in highly conductive areas such as metal
decking or steel work. GFCIs are available in-line with some extension cords.
Do not use in rainy or wet conditions.
Do not touch bare wires or receptacles (outlets).
Do not allow children or non-qualified persons to operate.
CAUTION:
Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator before attempting to start.
