Electrolyte is poisonous. If swallowed, drink large quantities of water or milk and follow with milk of magnesia or
vegetable oil and call a physician.
To prevent the possibility of creating a spark near the battery, connect charging cables first to the battery, then to the
generator. Disconnect cables first at the generator.
Note. Never leave the DC plug in the generator when not using the DC for charging batteries. Always remove the DC plug
from the socket. In most cases it is acceptable to use both the 12V DC for battery charging and the AC 240V outlet at the
same time. However, when the generator is working close to the maximum load, the generator may go into over load where
the AC load will need to be reduced or disconnected

Generator maintenance
Your generator should be kept clean and dry at all times. The generator should not be stored or operated in an
environment that includes excessive moisture, dust or any corrosive vapors. If these substances are on the generator,
clean with a cloth or soft bristle brush. Do not use a garden hose or anything with water pressure to clean the generator.
Water may enter the cooling air slots and could possibly damage the rotor, stator and the internal windings of the generator
head.

Storage
To prevent fuel spillage when transporting or during temporary storage, the generator should be secured upright in its
normal operating position, with the engine switch OFF. The fuel cap vent lever is turned counterclockwise to the OFF
position. Allow the engine to cool well before turning the fuel cap vent lever to the OFF position.
When transporting the generator:
WARNING.
•
Do not overfill the tank (there should be no fuel in the filler neck).
•
Do not operate the generator while it is on a vehicle. Take the generator off the vehicle and use it in a well
ventilated place.
