Chapter 1 — Safety First
Playing it safe when working with power equipment is always a good idea. Here are some
important precautions to make sure you stay safe.
1.1 Safety while Operating Your Generator
Always perform an oil, fuel, and air filter check before starting the engine.
• Properly clean and maintain the equipment.
• Operate the generator according to instructions for safe and dependable
service.
• Before operating the generator, read the user manual carefully. Otherwise
generator use may result in personal injuries or equipment damage.
• Never run the generator in an enclosed area to avoid harm from exhaust
emissions of a poisonous carbon monoxide gas.
• Be careful not to touch the exhaust system or discharge tubing during
operation due to risk of burns.
• Pay attention to the warning labels. The engine exhaust system will
become heated during operation and remain hot for an extended period
after the engine is stopped.
• Gasoline is a highly flammable and explosive liquid. Refuel in a well
ventilated area with the engine stopped.
• When refueling the generator, keep it away from cigarettes, open flames,
smoke and/or sparks.
• Connections for standby power to a building’s electrical system must be
done by a qualified electrician and must comply with all applicable laws
and electrical codes. Improper connections may cause serious injuries to
electrical workers during a power outage, and when the utility power is
restored, the generator may explode or cause fires.
• Place the generator at least 3 feet away from buildings or other equipment
during operation.
• Run the generator on a level surface. Tilting the generator may result in fuel
spills.
