safety signs, new signs must be applied. New safety signs are available from your authorized dealer.
3 SAFETY SIGN LOCATIONS
The types of safety signs and locations on the equipment are shown in the illustrations that follow. Good
safety requires that you familiarize yourself with the various safety signs, the type of warning and the
area, or particular function related to that area, that requires your SAFETY AWARENESS.
• Think SAFETY! Work SAFELY!
A
• Read and understand operator's manual
before starting. Review safety instruc-
tions annually.
• Stop and disable engine, remove ignition
key and place in your pocket and wait for all moving parts
to stop before servicing, adjusting or repairing.
• To prevent electrical shocks, do not operate this genera-
tor in the rain or with wet hands. It should be grounded
in damp or highly conductive conditions.
• Close and secure all guards, deflectors and shields
before starting and operating.
• Do not connect the generator to a commercial power
line.
• Do not operate with damaged or defective extension
cords, or power cords. Never operate any electrical
equipment with damaged or defective cords.
• Do not operate this generator in areas with poor ventila-
tion. The exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, a
poisonous, odorless, invisible gas. Prolonged exposure
can lead to unconsciousness and death.

Do not refuel the engine near open flames, pilot lights or
sparking electrical devices (e.g. power tools, welders or
grinders). Do not operate the generator near flammable
products.
• The engine should be refuelled in a well-lit area. Avoid
fuel spillage.
• Never allow children or unauthorized people to operate
or be around this machine.
• Keep the working area clean and free of debris to prevent
tripping. Operate only on level ground.
• Do not cover the generator while in operation. Overheat-
ing can result in damaged equipment.
• For storage, do not cover the generator until it has cooled
down completely.
• The ambient temperature should not exceed 00° F/0° C.
