SAVE THESE WARNINGS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
1. Before connecting an appliance or power cord to the generator: Make sure that it is in good working
order. Faulty appliances or power cords can create a potential for electrical shock.
2. If an appliance begins to operate abnormally, becomes sluggish or stops suddenly, turn it off immediately.
Disconnect the appliance, and determine whether the problem is the appliance, or if the rated load capacity
of the generator has been exceeded.
3.
Make sure that the electrical rating of the tool or appliance does not exceed that of the generator. Never
exceed the maximum power rating of the generator. Power levels between rated and maximum may be
used for no more than 30 minutes.
4. Substantial overloading will open the circuit breaker. Exceeding the time limit for maximum power
operation or slightly overloading the generator may not switch the circuit breaker or circuit protector OFF,
but will shorten the service life of the generator.
1. Do not connect the Generator directly into a home’s utility electrical line. Do not plug this Generator into
an outlet in the home. Connecting a generator directly to a utility power supply can “back feed” along the
power lines and kill or injure utility workers working on the lines.
GENERATOR PRECAUTIONS:
2.
All connections and conduits from the Generator to the load must only be installed by trained and licensed
electricians, and in compliance with all relevant local, state, and federal electrical codes and standards, and
other regulations where applicable.
3. The Generator must be earth-grounded in accordance with all relevant electrical codes and standards
before operation. A 10-gauge copper wire should be used to connect the ground terminal of the Generator
to a grounding rod. A wire that is too thin may not provide sufficient electrical current carrying capacity to
be an adequate ground path.
The other end of the ground wire must be securely fastened to an approved ground source. (See Figure
A.) Refer to local regulations for ground source information. If unsure of regulations or procedures, obtain
assistance from a licensed or certified electrician.
4. Insulate all connections and disconnected wires.
5. Connect the Generator only to a load or electrical
system (120 V~) that is compatible with the electrical
characteristics and rated capacities of the Generator.
6. Set up the Generator outdoors in a wellventilated,
dry area, away from building air intakes. The Generator
should be protected from direct exposure to rain and
snow. Do not set up the Generator on a conductive
surface such as a metal deck.
