.
Maximum power is available in the first 30 minutes. For continuousoperation,
do not exceed the rated power. In either case, the total wattage of all
appliances con-nected must be considered.
Do not exceed the current limit specified for any one receptacle.
Do not connect the generator to a household circuit. This could cause the
damage to the generator or to electrical appliances in the house.
Do not modify or use the generator for other purposes than it is intended for.
Also observe the following when using the generator.
Do not connect an extension to the exhaust pipe.
When an extension cable is required, be sure to use a tough rubber
sheathed flexible cable.
Limit length of extension cables; less than 60 m for cables if 2.5mm
and less than 100m for cabes of 4.0 mm
Keep the generator away from other electric cables or wires such as
commercial power supply lines.
Electrical equipment(including lines and plug connections) should not be
defective.
CAUTION
WARNING
To prevent electrical shock from faulty appliances, the generator should be
grounded. Connect a length of heavy wire between the generator's ground
terminal and an external ground source.
Connections for standby power to a building's electrical system must be made by
a qualified electrician and must comply with all applicable laws and electrical
codes. improper connections can allow electrical current from the generator to
backfeed into the utility lines. Such backfeed may electrocute utility company
workers or others who contact the lines during a power outage, and when utility
power is restored, the generator may explode, burn, or cause fires in the building's
electrical system.
