1. General safety rules for operation
Before starting the generator, review the following general safety rules for operation:
WARNING :
Failure to follow safety rules may result in serious injury or death to the operator or
bystanders.

Know proper use/how to stop. Be thoroughly familiar with proper use of the equipment and all
generator controls, output receptacles, and connections. Know how to stop the generator quickly if
needed (see “Operation, Step 6 - Stopping the Engine”)
.

Instruct operators . The generator owner must instruct all operators in safe generator set-up and
operation. Only trained adults should set up and operate the generator – Do not let children operate.

Intended use . Carefully read about and understand the intended use of this generator. Do not use for
other purposes, as unforeseen hazards or equipment damage may result.

Under the influence . Never operate, or let anyone else operate, the generator while under the influence
of alcohol, drugs, or medication.

Safety equipment / controls . Do not operate the generator unless all safety covers, guards, and barriers
are in place and in good working order, and all controls are properly adjusted for safe operation.

Damaged . Do not operate the generator with damaged, missing, or broken parts.

Modifications . Do not modify the generator in any way. Modifications can create serious safety hazards
and will also void the warranty.

Engine speed . Never attempt to modify the engine speed setting. The engine speed is preset at 3600 RPM
for safe and optimal performance of the generator. If speed needs adjusting, it must be done by factory-
authorized personnel.

External fuel sources . Never attempt to connect external gasoline/diesel sources in order to increase
engine run time. Larger tank at pressure or higher elevation will cause gasoline to leak from carburetor
during operation. Fire or explosion could result.
