ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS:
1. All connections and conduits from the Generator to the load must only be installed in compliance with all
relevant local, state, and federal electrical codes and standards, and other regulations where applicable.
2. The Generator must be properly earth-grounded by a licensed electrician in accordance with all
relevant electrical codes and standards before operation.
3. If an extension cord is used to provide power to a tool, make sure to use only UL® approved cords
having the correct gauge and length.

4. Do not attempt to connect or disconnect load connections while standing in water, or on wet or
soggy ground.
5. Do not touch electrically energized parts of the Generator and interconnecting cables or conductors
with any part of the body, or with any non-insulated conductive object.
6. Connect the generator only to a load or electrical system that is compatible with the electrical
characteristics and rated capacities of the Generator.
7. Keep all electrical equipment clean and dry. Replace any wiring where the insulation is racked, cut,
abraded or otherwise degraded. Replace terminals that are worn, discolored, or corroded. Keep
terminals clean and tight.
