III. OPERATING
1. OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
Only use and operate the generator
outside in well-ventilated spaces.
Only operate the generator on a flat, level
surface and in a clean, dry operating
environments.
Allow 1m clearance on all sides of the
generator while operating it outdoors.
Operate in safe and specified areas. In
some areas, generators must be
registered with the local utility company.
Generator’s used in construction sites
may be subject to additional rules and
regulations.
DANGER
TOXIC FUMES
The exhaust of the generator contains
carbon monoxide, using the generator
indoors can be extremely dangerous.
NEVER use inside any buildings or any
kind of enclosure, EVEN IF doors and
windows are open. Place the generator in
a well-ventilated and clean area. Think of
the wind direction and air currents when
placing the unit for operation.
HIGH ALTITUDE
This generator may require a high altitude
carburetor kit to ensure correct operation
at high altitudes. Consult the authorised
local dealer for high altitude kit
information if you intend to operate the
unit at altitudes above 5,000 feet (1,500
meters).
CAUTION
Even with carburetor modification,
generator horsepower will decrease about
3.5% for each 1,000 feet (300 meters)
increase in altitude. The effect of altitude
on horsepower will be greater than this if
no carburetor modification is made.
Operating the unit at altitude below 5,000
feet (1,500 meters) with a modified
carburetor may cause the generator to
overheat and result in serious engine
damage. Please restore factory
specifications of the carburetor at the
dealer when using the engine in a low
altitude area.
2. OPERATING CONDITION
Check for loose or damaged parts, signs
of oil or fuel leaks, and any other condition
that may affect proper operation. Repair
or replace all damaged or defective parts
immediately.
WARNING
Failing to correct problem(s) before
operation could result in property damage,
and serious injury.
Remove any excessive dirt or debris,
especially around the muffler and recoil
starter. DO NOT move or tip the
generator during operation. Use
generator only for intended uses. If you
have questions about intended use, ask
your local dealer.
