GENERATOR SAFETY WARNINGS
DANGER: CARBON MONOXIDE
Using a generator indoors
CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES.
A generator exhaust contains carbon monoxide (CO). This
is a poison gas you cannot see or smell. If you can smell the generator exhaust, you are breathing CO. But even if
you cannot smell the exhaust, you could be breathing CO.
NEVER use a generator inside homes, garages, crawl spaces, or other partially enclosed areas. Deadly levels of
carbon monoxide can build up in these areas. Using a fan or opening windows and doors does NOT supply enough
fresh air. ONLY use a generator OUTSIDE and far away from windows, doors, and vents. These openings can pull in
generator exhaust.
Even if you use a generator correctly, CO may leak into the home. ALWAYS use a battery-powered or battery-
backup CO alarm in the home. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the generator has been running, move
to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may have carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING : RISK OF EXPLOSION. HIGHLY FLAMMABLE :
This generator may emit highly flammable and explosive petrol vapors, which can cause severe burns or even
death, if ignited. A nearby open flame can lead to explosion even if not directly in contact with petrol.
• Do not operate near open flame, heat, or any other ignition source. Do not smoke near the generator.
• Always operate the generator on a firm, level surface.
• Always turn the generator off before refueling. Allow the generator to cool for at least 2 minutes before
removing the fuel cap. Loosen the cap slowly to relieve the pressure in the tank.
• Do not overfill the fuel tank. Petrol may expand during operation. Do not fill to the top of the tank. Allow for
expansion. Always check for spilled fuel before operating.
• If fuel spills, move the generator at least 30 feet away from the spill and wipe clean any spilled fuel before
starting the engine.
• Empty the fuel tank before storing or transporting the generator.
WARNING :
If this generator is used as a supply for a BUILDING’S WIRING SYSTEM, the generator MUST be installed by a
qualified electrician and connected to a transfer switch as a separately derived system in accordance with all
applicable laws and electrical codes and the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70. The generator shall be connected
to a transfer switch that switches all conductors excluding the equipment grounding conductor. The frame of the
generator shall be connected to an approved grounding electrode.
