WARNING:
This generator may emit highly
flammable and explosive gasoline vapors, which can
cause severe burns or even death if ignited. A nearby
open flame can lead to explosion even if not directly in contact with fuel.
•
Do not operate near open flame.
•
Do not smoke near generator.
•
Always operate on a firm, level surface.
•
Always turn generator off before refueling. Allow generator to cool for at least 2
minutes before removing fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve pressure in tank.
•
Do not overfill fuel tank. Gasoline may expand during operation. Do not fill to the
top of the tank. Allow for expansion.
•
Always check for spilled fuel before operating. Clean up any spilled fuel before
starting.
•
Empty fuel tank before storing or transporting the generator.
•
Before transporting, turn fuel valve to off and disconnect spark plug cap.
IMPORTANT:
•
Use only UNLEADED gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher.
•
Do not use old gas.
•
Never use an oil/gasoline mixture.
•
Avoid letting dirt or water into the fuel tank.
Step 3- Ground the Generator
WARNING:
Failure to properly ground the generator can result in
electrocution.
Ground the generator by tightening the grounding nut on the front control panel against a
grounding wire. (Figure 9) A generally acceptable grounding wire is a No. 12 AWG (American
Wire Gauge) stranded copper wire. This grounding wire should be connected at the other end to a
copper or brass rod that is driven into the earth. Wire and grounding rod are not included in
generator contents.
Grounding codes can vary by location. Contact a local electrician for area codes.
