Personal Safety
• Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a generator. Do not use generator
while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating
generators may result in serious personal injury.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
• Avoid accidental starting. Make sure the power switch is in its “OFF” position, and disconnect the spark plug
wire when not in use.
• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the generator on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a
rotating part of the generator may result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Wear ANSI approved safety impact eye goggles. Dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
• Do not force the generator. Use the correct generator for your application. The correct generator will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
• Do not use the generator if the power switch does not turn it on or off. Any generator that cannot be controlled
with the power switch is dangerous and must be replaced.
Generator Use and Care
• Make sure the power switch is in its “OFF” position and disconnect the spark plug wire before making any
adjustment, changing accessories, or storing the generator. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the generator accidentally.
• Store idle generators out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Generators are dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
• Maintain generators with care. Do not use damaged generator. Tag damaged generators “Do not use” until
repaired.
• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect
the generator’s operation. If damaged, have the generator serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained generators.
• Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be
suitable for one generator may become hazardous when used on another generator.
Servicing
• Maintain labels and name plates on the generator and engine. These carry important information.
• Generator service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by
unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
• When servicing a generator, use only identical replacement parts. Follow all appropriate instructions in this
manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions may create a risk of electric
shock or injury.
