DANGER:
GROUNDING THE GENERATOR
To avoid the risk of shock or electrocution, generator must be properly
grounded. The nut and ground terminal on the frame must always be used
to connect the generator to a suitable ground source. The ground path
should be made with #8 size wire. Connect the terminal of the ground wire
between the lock washer and the nut, and tighten the nut fully. Connect
the other end of the wire securely to a suitable ground source.
The National Electric Code contains several practical ways in
which to establish a good ground source. If a steel or iron rod is
used, it should be at least 5/8 in. diameter, and if a nonferrous rod
is used, it should be at least 1/ in. diameter and be listed as material for ground-
ing. Drive the rod or pipe to a depth of 8 ft. If a rock bottom is encountered less than
4 ft. down, bury the rod or pipe in a trench.
All electrical tools and appliances operated from this generator must be properly grounded by
use of a third wire or be “Double Insulated.”
It is recommended to:
1. Use electrical devices with 3-prong grounded plugs.
. Use an extension cord with a 3-pole receptacle and a 3-prong plug at opposite ends to ensure continuity of the
ground protection from the generator to the appliance.
Check and adhere to all applicable federal, state, and local regulations relating to grounding specifications. Consult a
qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood or if in doubt as
to whether the generator is properly grounded.
NOTE:
Your generator model may not look exactly the same as the model shown. Regardless of whether the generator
head is square or round, the grounding plug location is the same. If you have any questions about the location of the
grounding plug on your generator, please call us at 1-866-340-391.
