SAFETY GUIDELINES: READ
THIS MANUAL THOROUGHLY

If any portion of this manual is not under stood,
contact the toll free Coleman® Customer
Service line at 1-855-900-2653 for starting,
operating and servicing proced ures.

The operator is responsible for proper and safe
use of the equipment. We strongly recommend
that the operator read this manual and
thoroughly understand all instruct ion s bef ore
using the equipment. We also strongly
recommend instructing other users to properly
start and operate the unit. This prepares them if
they need to operate the equipment in an
emergency.

The generator can operate safely, efficiently and
reliably only if it is properly located, operated
and maintained. Before operating or servicing
the generator:

• Become familiar with and strictly adhere
to all local, state and national codes and
regulations.

• Study all safety warnings in this manual
and on the product carefully.

• Become familiar with this manual and
the unit before use.

The manufacturer cannot anticipate every
possible circumstance that might involve a
hazard. The warnings in this manual, and on
tags and decals affixed to the unit are, therefore,
not all inclusive.
If using a procedure, work method or operating
technique that the manufacturer does not
specifically recommend, ensure that it is safe for
others. Also make sure the procedure, work
method or
operating technique utilized does not render the
generator unsafe.

THE INFORMATION CONTAINED HEREIN
WAS BASED ON MACHINES IN PRODUCTION
AT THE TIME OF PUBLICATION. WE
RESERVE THE RIGHT TO MODIFY THIS
MANUAL AT ANY TIME.

SAFETY RULES

Throughout this publication, and on tags and
decals affixed to the generator, DANGER,
WARNING, CAUTION and NOTE blo c ks are

used to alert personnel to special instructions
about a particular operation that may be
hazardous if performed incorrectly or carelessly.
Observe them carefully. Their definitions are as
follows:

Indicates a hazardous situation or action
which, if not avoided, will result in death or
serious injury.

Indicates a hazardous situation or action
which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious
injury.

CAUTION!

Indicates a hazardous situation or action
which, if not avoided, could result in minor
or moderate injury.

NOTE:

Notes contain additional information
important to a procedure and will be found
within the regular text body of this manual.

These safety warnings cannot eliminate the
hazards that they indicate. Common sense and
strict compliance with the special instructions
while performing the action or service are
essential to preventing accidents.
Four commonly used safety symbols
accompany the DANGER, WARNING and
CAUTION blocks. The type of information each
indicates is as follows:

This symbol points out

important safety information
that, if not followed, could endanger
personal safety and/or property of
others.

This symbol points out

potential explosion hazard.

This symbol points out

potential fire hazard.

This symbol points out

potential electrical shock
hazard.

EXHAUST & LOCATION HAZARDS

• Never operate in an enclosed area or

indoors! NEVER use in the home, or
in partly enclosed areas such as
garages, even if doors and windows
are open! ONLY use outdoors and far
from open windows, doors, vents,
and in an area that will not
accumulate deadly exhaust.

• The engine exhaust fumes co nta in
carbon monoxide, which you cannot see
or smell. This poisonous gas, if breathed
in sufficient concentrations, can cause
unconsciousness or even death.

• Adequate, unobstructed flow of cooling
and ventilating air is critical to correct
generator operation. Do not alter the
installation or permit even partial
blockage of ventilation provisions, as
this can seriously affect safe operation
of the generator. The generator MUST
be operated outdoors.

• This exhaust system must be properly
maintained. Do nothing that might
render the exhaust system unsafe or in
noncompliance with any local codes
and/or standards.

• The manufacturer recommends
installing a battery operated carbon
monoxide alarm indoors, according to
the manufacturers instructions.

• If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak
after the generator has been running,
move to fresh air IMMEDIATELY. See a
doctor, as you could have carb on
monoxide poisoning.

FIRE HAZARDS

• Gasoline is highly FLAMMABLE and

its vapors are EXPLOSIVE. Do not
permit smoking, open flames, sparks
or heat in the vicinity while handling
gasoline.

• Never add fuel while unit is running
or hot. Allow engine to cool completely
before adding fuel.

• Never fill fuel tank indoors. Comply
with all laws regulating storage and
handling of gasoline.

• Do not overfill the fuel tank. Always
allow room for fuel expansion. If tank

is over-filled, fuel can overflow onto a
hot engine and cause FIRE or an
EXPLOSION. Never store generator
with fuel in tank where gasoline vapors
might reach an open flame, spark or
pilot light (as on a furnace, water heater
or clothes dryer). FIRE or EXPLOSION
may result. Allow unit to cool entirely
before storage.

• Wipe up any fuel or oil spills
immediately. Ensure that no
combustible materials are left on or near
the generator. Keep the area
surrounding the generator clean and
free from debris and keep a clearance of
five (5) feet on all sides to allow for
proper ventilation of the generator.

• Do not insert objects through unit’s
cooling slots.

FUELING THE GENERATOR

Use care when fueling the generator. Only fill
the fuel tank when the generator has cooled
entirely. Use fresh unleaded gasoline with a
minimum Research Octane Number (RON) of

87.
