GENERATOR SAFETY WARNINGS
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 conditions; doing so significantly increases the risk of electri-
cal 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 clearance 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 maximize 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 power 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 electrical system for standby power, you MUST consult a quali-
fied 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.
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.
