BASIC SAFETY INFORMATION
EXHAUST FUMES ARE DANGEROUS
•Never operate the engine in a closed area or it may cause unconsciensness and death within a short time. Operate in a well ventilated area.
FUEL IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE AND POISONOUS
•Always turn off the engine when refueling.
•Never refuel while smoking or in the vicinity of an open flame. •When operating or transporting this generator, be sure to keep it upright. If it tilts, fuel may leak from the carburetor or fuel tank.
ENGINE AND MUFFLER MAY BE HOT
•Place the generator in an appropriate location, away from children and pedestrians.
•Avoid placing any flammable materials near the exhaust outlet during operation.
•Keep a 4ft. clearance from buildings or other equipment around the generator to prevent overheating.
ELECTRIC SHOCK PREVENTION
•Never operate in rain or snow.
•Never touch the generator with wet hands or electric shock will occur. •Be sure to ground (earth) the generator.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION NOTES
•Avoid connecting the generator to commercial power outlet.
•Avoid connecting the generator in parallel with any other generator.
touching the engine or muffler while they are still hot.
FUEL
Make sure there is sufficient fuel in the tank.
GROUNDING
Make sure to ground the generator.
SPECIFIC SAFTEY INFORMATION
Attempting to connect generator directly to the electrical system of any building structure.
Back feeding electricity through a building’s electrical system to the outside utility feed lines could endanger repair persons attempting to restore service.
Failure to use a double throw transfer switch when connecting to a structure's electrical system can damage appliances and WILL VOID the manufacturer's warranty.
Never backfeed electricity through a structure's electrical system. To connect to a structure's electrical system in a safe manner, always have a Double-Throw Transfer Switch installed by a qualified electrician and in compliance with local ordinances. (When installing a Double-Throw Transfer Switch, a minimum of 10 gauge wiring must be used).
WARNING! The engine muffler will be very hot after use, avoid
SPECIFIC
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
OPERATION OF GENERATOR IN RAIN, WET, ICY, OR FLOODED CONDITIONS.
Water is an excellent conductor of electricity! Water which comes in contact with electrically charged components can transmit electricity to the frame and other surfaces, resulting in electrical shock to anyone contacting them.
Operate generator in a clean, dry, well ventilated area. Make sure hands are dry before touching unit.
TAMPERING WITH FACTORY SET ENGINE SPEED SETTINGS.
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 obtain more performance. Both the output voltage and frequency will be thrown out of standard by this practice, endangering attachments and the user.
IMPROPER CONNECTION OF ITEMS TO GENERATOR.
Exceeding the load capacity of the generator by attaching too many items, or items with very high load ratings to it could result in overheating of some items or their attachment wiring resulting in fire or electrical shock. Make sure that the sum total of electrical loads for all attachments does not exceed the load rating of the generator.
ATTEMPTING TO FILL THE FUEL TANK WHILE THE ENGINE IS RUNNING.
Gasoline and gasoline vapors can become ignited by coming in contact with hot components such as the muffler, engine exhaust gases, or from an electrical spark.
Turn engine off and allow it to cool before adding fuel to the tank. Equip area of operation with a fire extinguisher certified to handle gasoline or fuel fires.
SPARKS, FIRE, HOT OBJECTS
Cigarettes, sparks, fires, or other hot objects can cause gasoline or gasoline vapors to ignite.
Add fuel to tank in well ventilated area. Make sure there are no sources of ignition near the generator.
INADEQUATE VENTILATION FOR GENERATOR
Materials placed against or near the generator or operating the generator in areas where the temperature exceeds 40° C ambient (such as storage rooms or garages) can interfere with its proper ventilation features causing overheating and possible ignition of the materials or buildings.
Operate generator in a clean, dry, well ventilated area a minimum of four feet from any building, object or wall. DO NOT OPERATE UNIT INDOORS OR IN ANY CONFINED AREA.
RISK OF BREATHING - INHALATION HAZARD
Operate generator in clean, dry, well ventilated area. Never operate unit in enclosed areas such as garages, basements, storage, sheds, or in any location occupied by humans or animals.
Keep children, pets and others away from area of operating unit. Breathing exhaust fumes will cause serious injury or death. Gasoline engines produce toxic carbon monoxide exhaust fumes.
OPERATION OF VOLTAGE SENSITIVE APPLIANCES WITHOUT A VOLTAGE SURGE PROTECTOR.
Any gasoline operated household generator will incur voltage variations causing damage to voltage sensitive appliances or could result in fire.
Always use a U.L./CSA listed voltage sensitive surge protector to connect voltage sensitive appliances (TV, computer, stereo, etc.). Failure to use a U.L./CSA listed voltage surge protector will void the warranty on your generator.
Notice: A multiple outlet strip is not a surge protector. Make sure you use a U.L./CSA listed voltage surge protector.
USE OF WORN, DAMAGED, UNDERSIZED OR UNGROUNDED EXTENSION CORDS.
Contact with worn or damaged extension cords could result in electrocution. Use of undersize extension cords could result in overheating of the wires or attached items, resulting in fire.
Use of ungrounded extension cords could prevent operation of circuit breakers and result in electrical shock.
Inspect extension cords before use and replace with new cord if required. Use proper size (wire gauge) extension cords for application as shown below. Always use a extension cords having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. DO NOT use an ungrounded plug.
An extension cord that is hot to the touch is overloaded. Repair or replace damaged extension cords immediately.
