SAFETY INFORMATION
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
DANGER

DO NOT
touch output terminals during
operation. Contact with output terminals
during operation can cause electrocution,
electrical shock or burn.
 The electrical voltage required to
operate the generator can cause severe
injury or even death through physical contact with live
circuits. Turn generator and all circuit breakers OFF
before performing maintenance on the generator or
making contact with output terminals.

NEVER
insert any objects into the output
receptacles during operation. This is
extremely dangerous. The possibility exists
of
electrical shock, electrocution or
death.
 Backfeed to a utility system can cause
electrocution and/or property damage.
NEVER connect the generator to a
building’s electrical system without
a transfer switch or other approved
device. All installations should be
performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with
all applicable laws and electrical codes. Failure to do so
could result in electrical shock or burn, causing
serious
injury or even death.
Power Cord/Cable Safety
DANGER

NEVER
let power cords or cables
lay in water.

NEVER stand in water
while AC power from the
generator is being transferred to a load.

NEVER
use
damaged
or
worn
cables or cords when
connecting equipment to generator. Inspect for cuts in
the insulation.

NEVER grab or touch a live power
cord or cable with wet hands. The
possibility exists of
electrical shock,
electrocution or death.
 Make sure power cables are securely connected to the
generator’s output receptacles. Incorrect connections
may cause electrical shock and damage to the
generator.
NOTICE

ALWAYS make certain that proper power or extension
cord has been selected for the job. See Cable Selection
Chart in this manual.
Grounding Safety
DANGER

ALWAYS
make sure that electrical circuits are properly
grounded to a suitable earth ground (ground rod) per
the National Electrical Code (NEC) and local codes
before operating generator.
Severe injury or death by
electrocution
can result from operating an ungrounded
generator.

NEVER use gas piping as an electrical ground.
BATTERY SAFETY
DANGER

DO NOT
drop the battery. There is a possibility that the
battery will explode.

DO NOT
expose the battery to open fl ames,
sparks, cigarettes, etc. The battery contains
combustible gases and liquids. If these
gases and liquids come into contact with a
fl ame or spark, an explosion could occur.
WARNING

ALWAYS
wear safety glasses when
handling the battery to avoid eye irritation.
The battery contains acids that can cause
injury to the eyes and skin.
 Use well-insulated gloves when picking up the battery.

ALWAYS
keep the battery charged. If the battery is not
charged, combustible gas will build up.

ALWAYS
recharge the battery in a well-ventilated
environment to avoid the risk of a dangerous concentration
of combustible gasses.
