DIGITAL INVERTER GENERATOR
Gasoline and Oil
This product requires oil and fuel. THE EN-
GINE WILL NOT START WITHOUT OIL.
Work in well-ventilated area. Keep cigarettes,
flames or sparks away from the work area or
where gasoline is stored.
WARNING!
Gasoline is extremely flammable and
is explosive under certain conditions.
Keep out of reach of children.
• Gasoline fuel and fumes are flammable
and potentially explosive. Use proper fuel
storage and handling procedures. Always
have multiple ABC class fire extinguishers
nearby.
• Keep the generator and surrounding area
clean at all times.
• Keep the generator at least 5 feet away
from buildings and other equipment during
operation.
• Fuel or oil spills must be cleaned up im-
mediately. Dispose of fluids and cleaning
materials as per any local, state, or federal
codes and regulations. Store oily rags in a
covered metal container.
• Never store fuel or other flammable materi-
als near the generator.
• Do not smoke, or allow sparks, flames or
other sources of ignition around the engine
and fuel tank. Fuel vapours are explosive.
• Keep earthed conductive objects, such as
tools, away from exposed, live electrical
parts and connections to avoid sparking or
arcing. These events could ignite fumes or
vapours.
• Do not refill the fuel tank while the engine
is running or while the engine is still hot. Do
not operate the generator with known leaks
in the fuel system.
• Excessive build-up of unburned fuel gases
in the exhaust system can create a poten-
tially explosive condition. This build-up can
occur after repeated failed start attempts,
valve testing, or hot engine shutdown.
• Use only engine manufacturer recom-
mended fuel and oil.
Hot Components
WARNING!
Hot exhaust can burn you. Engine and
exhaust system parts become very hot
and remain hot for some time after the
engine is run. Wear insulated gloves or
wait until the engine and exhaust sys-
tem have cooled down before handling
these parts.
Work Area
• Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered benches and dark areas invite
accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Gen-
erators create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors
away while operating a generator. Provide
barriers or shields as needed.
Electrical Safety
• Keep all electrical equipment clean and
dry. Replace any wiring where the insula-
tion is cracked, cut eroded part or other-
wise degraded. Replace terminals that are
worn, discoloured, or corroded. Keep ter-
minals clean and tight.
• Insulate all connections and disconnected
wires.
