SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS – This manual contains important instructions for the WEN
generator that
should be followed during installation and maintenance of the generator.
Generators vibrate in normal use. During and after the use of the generator, inspect both the generator as well as
extension and power supply cords for damage resulting from vibration. Have damaged items repaired or replaced
as necessary. Do not use plugs or cords that show signs of damage such as broken or cracked insulation.
For power outages, permanently installed stationary generators are better suited for providing backup power to the
home. Even a properly connected portable generator can become overloaded. This may result in overheating or
stressing of the components, possibly leading to a generator failure.
SAFETY INFORMATION

GENERATOR SAFETY RULES (CONTINUED):
CAUTION: Misuse of this generator can
damage it or shorten its life.
WARNING: If this generator is used as a supply for a building’s wir-
ing system, the generator must be installed by a qualified electrician and
connected to a transfer switch as a separately derived system in accor-
dance with the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70. The generator shall
be connected to a transfer switch that switches all conductors excluding
the equipment grounding conductor. The frame of the generator shall
be connected to an approved grounding electrode.
