UnitedPower GG1300, Instruction Manual

Page: 3 / 19

The figures quoted on the previous page in the above table are emission levels and are not necess-
arily safe working levels. While there is correlation between the emission and exposure levels, this
cannot be reliably used to determine whether or not further precautions are required. Factors that
influence the actual level of exposure include the characteristics of the work room, other sources of
noise, etc. Also the permissible exposure level can vary from country. This information, however,
will enable the user of the machine to make a better evaluation of the hazard and risk.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following instructions and precautions before
operating this machine.
1.Read all of the safety and operating instructions carefully before using the machine. Use
the generator only as described in this manual.
2.It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all users of this generator are adequately
informed of the safety and operating instructions prior to use.
3.Inspect and tighten all parts regularly. Ensure the generator does not have any damaged
hoses, loose or missing clamps, damaged tank or fuel cap before use. All defects should
be corrected before use. Do not operate the generator if it has been dropped or damaged
until all defective parts have been repaired.
4.The fuel is highly inflammable. Wipe away all fuel spills with clean cloth. Keep gasoline,
kerosene, matches and other explosives away from the generator because of the potential
danger of explosion or fire.
5.Do not place fuel, matches, gunpowder, oily cloths, straw, trash, or any other flammable
materials near the generator.
6.Ensure that the engine is not running when refueling. Do not smoke or use open flames
near the fuel tank. Be careful not to spill during refueling. If fuel is spilled, wipe it off with a
clean cloth and let dry before restarting the engine.
7.To prevent surging that may possibly damage equipment, do not allow unit to run out of fuel
when electrical loads are applied.
8.Exhaust contains poisonous Carbon Monoxide gas. Never use generator in a poorly
ventilated area as this may cause the engine to become overheated and the exhaust gas
will endanger human life. Keep the generator at least 1 meter (3 feet) away from any
structure or building while in use.
9.Store the generator in a well-ventilated area with the fuel tank empty. Drain all fuel before
transporting the generator in order to prevent leakage.
10.Do not operate in exposed locations where it will be subjected to rain, snow, or water spray.
Do not touch the generator with wet hands as this may cause severe electric shocks.
11.If wet, wipe and dry it well before starting. Do not pour water directly over the generator
