Flammable Gasoline:
This generator may emit highly flammable and explosive gasoline vapors, which can cause severe
burns or even death. A nearby open flame can lead to an explosion even if not directly in contact with gasoline.
• Do not operate this generator near open flame.
• Do not smoke near this generator.
• Always operate this generator on a firm, level surface.
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. Handling fuel can result in serious injury or burns.
• Always shut down this generator before refueling. Refuel in a well-ventilated area. Keep heat, sparks and flame
away while refueling and away from the location where gasoline is stored. Never refuel indoors where gasoline
fumes may reach flames and/or sparks.
• Allow this generator to cool for at least 2 minutes before removing the fuel tank cap. Loosen the cap slowly to
relieve pressure in the fuel tank. Avoid spilling fuel.
• Do not fill the fuel tank above the upper limit line. Gasoline may expand during operation. Do not fill to the top of
the tank.
• Always check for spilled gasoline and immediately wipe it up before starting this generator.
• Empty the fuel tank before storing or transporting this generator.
• Always handle fuel outdoors.
• Before transporting, turn the fuel valve to the “OFF” position and disconnect the spark plug.
NOTE: DO NOT USE GASOLINE CONTAINING MORE THAN 10% ETHANOL (e10)
Usage:
Consult a physician(s) before using this generator if using a pacemaker.
Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to a heart
pacemaker could cause a pacemaker to malfunction or fail. Caution is necessary when near the engine’s recoil starter.
Usage:
Prolonged exposure to high noise levels can be hazardous to hearing.
Always wear ANSI-approved hearing protection when
operating or working around the generator when it is running.
