IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The purpose of safety rules is to attract your
attention to possible dangers. The safety symbols
and the explanations with them, require your
careful attention and understanding. The safety
warnings do not by themselves eliminate any
danger. The instruction or warnings they give are
not substitutes for proper accident prevention
measures.
SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL.
Indicates
caution or warning. May be used in
conjunction with other symbols or
pictures.
Failure to obey a safety warning can result in
serious injury to yourself or to others. Always follow
the safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock and personal injury.
Do not attempt to operate this tool until you have
read thoroughly and completely understood the
safety rules, etc. contained in this manual. Failure
to comply can result in accidents involving fire,
electric shock or serious personal injury. Save this
Owners Operating Manual and review it frequently
for continual safe operation and for instructing
others who may use this tool.
DANGER: CARBON MONOXIDE.
Using a generator indoors CAN KILL
YOU IN MINUTES.
Generator exhaust contains high levels of carbon
monoxide (CO), a poisonous 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,
crawlspaces, or other partly 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 outdoors and far away from
open windows, doors, and vents. These openings
can pull in generator exhaust.
Even when 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 could have
carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING:
Read and understand all
instructions. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below could result in
electrocution, fire, and/or carbon monoxide
poisoning, which can cause death or serious injury.
WARNING:
In some applications,
National Electric Code requires the
generator to be grounded to an approved
earth ground. Before using the ground terminal,
consult a qualified electrician, electrical inspector,
or local agency having jurisdiction for local codes
or ordinances that apply to the intended use of the
generator.
