• If fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before starting engine. Breathing carbon monoxide will cause nausea, WHEN OPERATING EQUIPMENT fainting or death. • Do not tip engine or equipment at angle which causes fuel to • Operate generator ONLY outdoors. spill. • Keep exhaust gas from entering a confined area through windows, doors, ventilation intakes or other openings. • This generator is not for use in mobile equipment or marine applications. • DO NOT operate generator inside any building or enclosure, WHEN TRANSPORTING OR REPAIRING including the generator compartment of a recreational vehicle (RV). EQUIPMENT • Transport/repair with fuel tank EMPTY or with fuel shutoff valve OFF. WARNING Generator produces powerful voltage. Failure to isolate generator from power utility can result in death or injury to electric utility workers due to backfeed of electrical energy. • Disconnect spark plug wire. WHEN STORING FUEL OR EQUIPMENT WITH FUEL IN TANK • Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters, clothes dryers or other appliances that have pilot light or other • When using generator for backup power, notify utility ignition source because they can ignite fuel vapors. company. Use approved transfer equipment to isolate generator from electric utility. WARNING • DO NOT touch bare wires or receptacles. • DO NOT use generator with electrical cords which are worn, frayed, bare or otherwise damaged. • This generator does not meet U. S. Coast Guard Regulation 33CFR-183 and should not be used on marine applications. • DO NOT operate generator in the rain. • Failure to use the appropriate U. S. Coast Guard approved • DO NOT handle generator or electrical cords while standing in water, while barefoot, or while hands or feet are wet. generator could result in death, serious injury and/or property damage. • DO NOT allow unqualified persons or children to operate or service generator. 3 SAFETY RULES • When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback. • NEVER start or stop engine with electrical devices plugged in and turned on. Rapid retraction of starter cord (kickback) will pull hand and arm toward engine faster than you can let go. Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains could result. WARNING • DO NOT touch hot surfaces. • Allow equipment to cool before touching. • The generator must be at least 5 feet from structures having combustible walls and/or other combustible materials. • Keep at least 3 feet of clearance on all sides of generator for adequate cooling, maintenance and servicing. • In the State of California a spark arrester is required by law (Section 4442 of the California Public Resources Code). Other states may have similar laws. Federal laws apply on federal lands. If you equip the muffler with a spark arrester, it must be maintained in effective working order. Running engines produce heat. Temperature of muffler and nearby areas can reach or exceed 150°F (65°C). Severe burns can occur on contact. Combustible debris, such as leaves, grass, brush, etc. can catch fire. WARNING WHEN ADJUSTING OR MAKING REPAIRS TO YOUR GENERATOR • Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and place the wire where it cannot contact spark plug. WHEN TESTING FOR ENGINE SPARK • Use approved spark plug tester. • DO NOT check for spark with spark plug removed. Unintentional sparking can result in fire or electric shock. WARNING CAUTION Excessively high operating speeds increase risk of injury and damage to generator. Excessively low speeds impose a heavy load. • • DO NOT tamper with governed speed. Generator supplies correct rated frequency and voltage when running at governed speed. DO NOT modify generator in any way. CAUTION Exceeding generators wattage/amperage capacity can damage generator and/or electrical devices connected to it. • • • • See “Don’t Overload Generator”. Start generator and let engine stabilize before connecting electrical loads. Connect electrical loads in OFF position, then turn ON for operation. Turn electrical loads OFF and disconnect from generator before stopping generator. CAUTION Improper treatment of generator can damage it and shorten its life. • • • • • • • Use generator only for intended uses. If you have questions about intended use, ask dealer or contact your nearest authorized service center. Operate generator only on level surfaces. DO NOT expose generator to excessive moisture, dust, dirt, or corrosive vapors. DO NOT insert any objects through cooling slots. If connected devices overheat, turn them off and disconnect them from generator. Shut off generator if: -electrical output is lost; -equipment sparks, smokes, or emits flames; -unit vibrates excessively. 4 KNOW YOUR GENERATOR KNOW YOUR GENERATOR Read this owner’s manual and safety rules before operating your generator.
