ruleS For SAFe oPerATIoN
Study these RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION carefully before
operating or servicing this equipment. Become familiar with
the OWNER’S MANUAL and with the engine. The engine
can operate safely, efficiently and reliably only if it is properly
operated and maintained. Many accidents are caused by fail-
ing to follow simple and fundamental rules or precautions.
Generac cannot possibly anticipate every possible circum-
stance that might involve a hazard. The warnings in this
manual and on tags and decals affixed to the equipment,
are therefore, not all-inclusive. If you use a procedure, work
method or operating technique Generac does not specifically
recommend, you must satisfy yourself that it is safe for you
and others. You must also make sure the procedure, work
method or operating technique that you choose does not
render the engine to be unsafe.
*
dANGer: do not tamper with the engine governed
speed. High operating speeds are dangerous and
increase the risk of personal injury or damage to the
equipment. operating at low speeds with heavy
load may shorten the engine’s life.

• Gasoline is highly
FlAMMAble
and its vapors are
eXPlo-
SIve
. Do not permit smoking, open flames, sparks or heat
in the area while handling gasoline. Avoid spilling gasoline
on a hot engine. Comply with all of the laws regulating
storage and handling of gasoline.
• Store gasoline and other fuels only in containers designed
and approved for the storage of such materials.
• Add gasoline in a clean, well-ventilated area. Wipe up any
spilled gasoline immediately. If gasoline has been spilled,
let it dry completely before starting the engine.
• Do not overfill the fuel tank. Always allow room for fuel
expansion. If the tank is overfilled, the fuel can overflow
onto a hot engine and cause a FIRE or an EXPLOSION.
• Allow at least two (2) feet of clearance on all sides of the
engine, even while operating it outdoors, or you could
damage the engine.
• Thoroughly inspect the engine for loose or damaged parts
before each use. Do not use the engine until adjustments
or repairs are made.

aged or defective parts immediately.
