OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
1.
Using a generator indoors can kill you in minutes.
Only use a generator outside and far away from win-
dows, doors and vents.
2.
Do not smoke near the generator.
3.
Do not operate near open flame, heat, or flammable
materials.
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 an explosion even if it isn’t directly in contact with
gasoline.
4.
Do not expose the generator to rainy or wet con-
ditions; doing so significantly increases the risk of
electrical shock.
Never handle the generator, electronic
devices, or any cord while standing in water, while bare-
foot, or when hands or feet are wet.
5.
Always operate the generator on a dry, firm, level
surface.
6.
The generator should have at least 5 feet of clear-
ance from buildings or other equipment during opera-
tion.
7.
Do not allow children or non-qualified persons to
operate the generator.
GENERATOR PREPARATION
1.
Always ground the generator before using it to maxi-
mize safety
(see “Ground the Generator” section).
2.
Do not overfill fuel tank, as gasoline may expand
during operation.
Do not fill to the very top of the tank.
Leave room for gasoline expansion. Always check for
spilled fuel before operating.
3.
If any part of the generator, electrical device or pow-
er cord is broken, damaged, or defective, make sure
it is repaired or replaced before operation.
Service
should only be performed by a qualified technician. Do
not use receptacles or cords that show signs of damage,
such as broken or cracked insulation.
4.
Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in highly
conductive areas such as metal decking or steel work.
Extension cords with in-line GFCIs are recommended for
these operations to maximize safety.
5.
If connecting the generator to a building’s electri-
cal system for standby power, you MUST consult a
qualified electrician and install a transfer switch.
Such
connections must comply with local electrical laws and
codes. Failure to comply can create a back-feed, which
may result in serious injury or death to utility workers.
6.
Never modify the generator in any way.
Modifying
or using the machine for any other purpose for which it
is not designed may result in serious injuries, machine
damage and voiding of the warranty.
GENERATOR OPERATION
1.
Only use the generator for its intended purposes.
Modifying or using the generator for operations for
which it was not designed may cause hazards and per-
sonal injury.
2.
Do not touch bare wires or receptacles (outlets).
3.
Do not exceed the wattage capacity of the generator
by plugging in more electrical devices than the unit
can handle.
This could damage the generator and/or
connected electrical devices. Check the operating volt-
age and frequency requirements of all electrical devices
prior to plugging them into the generator.
Generator safety warnings continue on the next page.
WARNING!
Do not let comfort or familiarity with the product replace strict adherence to product safety rules.
Failure to follow the safety instructions may result in serious personal injury.
