201047 - 2400W DUAL FUEL INvERTER GENERATOR

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

6

 

WARNING

Spark from removed spark plug wire can result in fire or 
electrical shock.

When servicing the generator:

Disconnect the spark plug wire and place it where it cannot 
contact the plug or any other metal object.

DO NOT check for spark with the plug removed.

Use only approved spark plug testers.

 

WARNING

Running engines produce heat. Severe burns can occur on 
contact. Combustible material can catch fire on contact.

DO NOT touch hot surfaces.

Avoid contact with hot exhaust gases.

Allow equipment to cool before touching.

Maintain at least 3 ft. (91.4 cm) of clearance on all sides to 
ensure adequate cooling.

Maintain at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) of clearance from combustible 
materials.

 

WARNING

Rapid retraction of the recoil cord will pull hand and arm 
towards the engine faster than you can let go. Broken bones, 
fractures, bruises or sprains could result. Unintentional 
startup can result in entanglement, traumatic amputation or 
laceration.

When starting engine, pull the recoil cord slowly until 
resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.

DO NOT start or stop the engine with electrical devices 
plugged in and turned on.

 

CAUTION

Exceeding the generator’s running capacity can damage the 
generator and/or electrical devices connected to it.

DO NOT overload the generator.

DO NOT tamper with the governed speed. 

DO NOT modify the generator in any way.

 

CAUTION

Start the generator and allow the engine to stabilize before 
connecting electrical loads.

Connect electrical equipment in the off position, and then turn 
them on for operation.

Turn electrical equipment off and disconnect before stopping 
the generator.

 

CAUTION

Improper treatment or use of the generator can damage it, 
shorten its life or void the warranty.

Use the generator only for intended uses.

Operate only on level surfaces.

DO NOT expose generator to excessive moisture, dust, 
or dirt.

DO NOT allow any material to block the cooling slots.

If connected devices overheat, turn them off and disconnect 
them from the generator.

DO NOT use the generator if:

 

Electrical output is lost

 

Equipment sparks, smokes or emits flames

 

Equipment vibrates excessively
