4.3 HANDLING & STORAGE
CAUTION: Always use and store this generator correctly, never use or store this generator on
it’s side as oil or fuel may leak and damage the generator or your property.
If the generator has been used always allow it to cool for at least 30 minutes before
transporting the generator and ensure that the generator has fully cooled before returning
it to storage as a hot engine and exhaust system could cause personal injury or ignite some
materials.
To prevent fuel/oil spillage when transporting, the generator should be secured upright in
it’s normal operating position with the engine switch in the off position.
Take care not to drop or strike the generator when transporting. Never cover the generator
when in use.
Before storing the generator for a long period:-
1. Be sure that the storage area is free of excessive humidity and dust.
2. Drain the fuel, storage procedure below.
A. Unscrew the fuel tank cap, remove the filter screen and empty the fuel tank into an
approved petrol container using a commercially available hand siphon
(Draper Stock No.43650), re-install the filter screen and fuel tank cap.
B. Loosen the carburettor drain screw and drain the carburettor into a suitable container.
C. Remove the spark plug maintenance cover and remove the spark plug cap.
D. Turn the engine switch to the OFF position.
E. Pull the starter cord 3 or 4 times to empty the fuel pump of petrol, into a
suitable container.
F. Tighten the carburettor drain screw.

5. HEALTH & SAFETY INFORMATION
5.1 GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR GENERATOR USE
NOTE: Generators are designed to give safe and dependable service if operated according to
instructions. Read and understand this owners manual fully before operating this generator.
You can help prevent accidents by being familiar with the generators controls and by
observing safe operating procedures.
OPERATOR RESPONSIBILITY
• Know how to stop the generator quickly in case of emergency.
• Understand the use of all the generators controls, output sockets and connections.
• Be sure that anyone who operates the generator receives proper instruction in it’s safe use.
WARNING!:
CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARDS
• Exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon monoxide, a colourless and odourless gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause loss of consciousness and may lead to death.
NEVER run this generator in an enclosed space or partly enclosed space.
ALWAYS ensure a high level of ventilation in the area that you intend to use the generator
to avoid the potential build up of carbon monoxide.
WARNING!:
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARDS
• The generator produces enough electric power to cause a serious shock or electrocution if
misused.
• Using a generator or electrical appliance in wet conditions, such as rain or snow, or near a
pool or sprinkler system, or when your hands are wet, could result in electrocution. Keep
the generator dry.
• If the generator is stored outdoors, unprotected from the weather, check all of the
electrical components on the control panel before each use. Moisture or ice can cause a
malfunction or short circuit in electrical components which could result in electrocution.
• Do not connect to a building electrical system unless an isolation switch has been installed
by a qualified electrician.
• Never connect different generator models and types.
WARNING!:
FIRE AND BURN HAZARDS
• The exhaust system gets hot enough to ignite some materials.
- Keep the generator at least 3 feet (1 metre) away from buildings and other equipment
during operation.
- Do not enclose the generator in any structure.
- Keep flammable materials away from the generator.
• The muffler becomes very hot during operation and remains hot for a while after stopping
the engine. Be careful not to touch the muffler while it is hot. Let the engine cool before
storing the generator indoors.
• Petrol is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions. Do not smoke or
allow flames or sparks where the generator is refuelled or where petrol is stored. Refuel in
a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped.
• Fuel vapours are extremely flammable and may ignite after the engine has started. Make
sure that any spilled fuel has been wiped up before starting the generator.

5. HEALTH & SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING!:
DO NOT OPERATE THIS MACHINE IN ANY HAZARDOUS LOCATION
Such areas include when there is a risk of an explosion of petrol fumes, leaking gas or
explosive dust.
CAUTION:
ENGINE SPEED HAS BEEN FACTORY SET TO PROVIDE SAFE OPERATION
Tampering with the engine speed adjustment could result in overheating of attachments
and could cause a fire. Never attempt to "speed up" the engine to gain more performance
as this will result in the output voltage and frequency being thrown out of their standard
values, endangering the user and any attachments plugged into the generator.
YOU MUST UNPLUG ANY LOAD FROM THE GENERATOR BEFORE STARTING/STOPPING THE
GENERATOR TO PREVENT PERMANENT DAMAGE TO APPLIANCES.
Ground (Earth) your generator. Ensure that the generator has been grounded by wiring an
earth lead, connect one end of the earth lead to the earth terminal on the generator and
the other end should be pressed into the ground or used in conjunction with an earth
spike.
NOTE:
PROTECT YOUR GENERATOR
This generator is NOT WEATHERPROOF and should not be exposed to direct sunlight, high
ambient temperatures and damp, wet or high humidity conditions.
