WARNING :

The engine exhaust from this product contains
chemicals known to the State of California to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm.

NOTICE

FEDERAL EMISSION COMPONENT DEFECT WARRANTY and CALIFORNIA
EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY are applicable to only those engines/
generators complied with EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) and CARB
(California Air Resources Board) emission regulations in the U.S.A.

NOTICE

To the engines/generators exported to and used in the countries other than the
U.S.A., warranty service shall be performed by the distributor in each country in
accordance with the standard engine/generator warranty policy as applicable.

AIR INDEX

To show compliance with California emission regulations, a hangtag has been
provided displaying the Air Index level and durability period of this engine.

The Air Index level defines how clean an engine’s exhaust is over a period of
time. A bar graph scaled from “0” (most clean) to “10” (least clean) is used to
show an engine’s Air Index level. A lower Air Index level represents cleaner
exhaust from an engine.

The period of time (in hours) that the Air Index level is measured is known as
the durability period. Depending on the size of the engine, a selection of time
periods can be used to measure the Air Index level (see below).

Descriptive Term Applicable to Emissions Durability Period

Moderate - 50 hours (engine from 0 to 80 cc)

125 hours (engine greater than 80 cc)

Intermediate - 125 hours (engine from 0 to 80 cc)

250 hours (engine greater than 80 cc)

Extended - 300 hours (engine from 0 to 80 cc)

500 hours (engine greater than 80 cc)

Notice : This hangtag must remain on this engine or piece of equipment, and
only be removed by the ultimate purchaser before operation.

OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES

As the engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in
your owner's manual. MAKITA recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on
your engine, but MAKITA cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to
ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.

As the engine owner, you should however be aware that MAKITA may deny warranty coverage if
your engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modi­fications.

You are responsible for presenting your engine to the nearest Makita Factory Service Center or
Service Center authorized by MAKITA when a problem exists.

If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact
the Makita Warranty Department at 1-800-4-MAKITA for the information.

maintenance records covering the performance of regular maintenance in the event questions
arise. These receipts and maintenance records should be transferred to each subsequent owner of
the engine. MAKITA reserves the right to deny warranty coverage if the engine has not been prop­erly maintained. Warranty claims will not be denied, however, solely because of the lack of required
maintenance or failure to keep maintenance records.

MAINTENANCE, REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR OF EMISSION CONTROL DEVICES AND SYS­TEMS MAY BE PERFORMED BY ANY REPAIR ESTABLISHMENT OR INDIVIDUAL ; HOWEVER,
WARRANTY REPAIRS MUST BE PERFORMED BY THE MAKITA FACTORY SERVICE CENTER
OR SERVICE CENTER AUTHORIZED BY MAKITA. THE USE OF PARTS THAT ARE NOT

THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM AND MAY HAVE A BEARING
ON THE OUTCOME OF A WARRANTY CLAIM.

If other than the parts authorized by MAKITA are used for maintenance replacements or for the
repair of components affecting emission control, you should assure yourself that such parts are
warranted by their manufacturer to be equivalent to the parts authorized by MAKITA in their perfor­mance and durability.

HOW TO MAKE A CLAIM

scheduled only for regular inspection to the effect of "repair or replace as necessary" shall be
warranted for the warranty period. Any warranted part which is scheduled for replacement as
required maintenance shall be warranted for the period of time up to the first scheduled replace­ment of that part. This warranty shall apply only towards the repair, replacement, and/or adjust­ment of the component parts listed below.

1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Do not operate the generator near gasoline or gaseous fuel because of the
potential danger of explosion or fire.
Do not fill the fuel tank with fuel while the engine is running. Do not smoke or
use open flame near the fuel tank. Be careful not to spill fuel during refueling.
If fuel is spilt, wipe it off and let dry before starting the engine.

Do not place in flammables near the generator.
Be careful not to place fuel, matches, gunpowder, oily cloths, straw, trash, or
any other in flammables near the generator.

Do not operate the generator inside a room, cave, tunnel, or other insufficient­ly ventilated area. Always operate it in a well-ventilated area, otherwise the
engine may become overheated, and the poisonous carbon monoxide gas
contained in the exhaust gases will endanger human lives. Keep the,genera­tor at least 1 meter (3 feet) away from any structure or building during use.
If the generator must be used indoors, the area must be well-ventilated and
extreme caution must be taken regarding the discharge of exhaust gases.

Do not enclose the generator nor cover it with a box.
The generator has a built-in forced air cooling system, and may become over­heated if it is enclosed. If generator has been covered to protect it from the
weather during non use, be sure to remove it and keep it well away from the
area during generator use.

Operate the generator on a level surface.
It is not necessary to prepare a special foundation for the generator.
However, the generator will vibrate on an irregular surface, so choose a level
place without surface irregularities.
If the generator is tilted or moved during operation, fuel may spill and / or the
generator may tip over, causing a hazardous situation.
Proper lubrication cannot be expected if the generator is operated on a steep
incline or slope. In such a case, piston seizure may occur even if the oil is
above the upper level.

−1−

Pay attention to the wiring or extension cords from the generator to the con­nected device.
If the wire is under the generator or in contact with a vibrating part, it may
break and possibly cause a fire, generator burnout, or electric shock hazard.
Replace damaged or worn cords immediately.

Do not operate in rain, in wet or damp conditions, or with wet hands.
The operator may suffer severe electric shock if the generator is wet due to
rain or snow.

If wet, wipe and dry it well before starting. Do not pour water directly over the
generator, nor wash it with water.

Be extremely careful that all necessary electrical grounding procedures are
followed during each and every use. Failure to do so can be fatal.

Do not contact the generator to a commercial power line. Connection to a
commercial power line may short circuit the generator and ruin it or cause
electric shock hazard. Use the transfer switch for connecting to domestic cir­cuit.

No smoking while handling the battery. The battery emits flammable hydrogen
gas, which can explode if exposed to electric arcing or open flame.
Keep the area well-ventilated and keep open flames/sparks away when han­dling the battery.

Engine becomes extremely hot during and for some time after operation.
Keep combustible materials well away from generator area.
Be very careful not to touch any parts of the hot engine especially the muffler
area or serious burns may result.

Keep children and all bystanders at a safe distance from work areas.

−2−

It is absolutely essential that you know the safe and proper use of the power
tool or appliance that you intend to use. All operators must read, understand
and follow the tool/appliance owners manual. Tool and appliance applica­tions and limitations must be understood. Follow all directions given on
labels and warnings. Keep all instruction manuals and literature in a safe
place for future reference.

Use only "LISTED" extension cords.
When a tool or appliance is used outdoors, use only extension cords
marked "For Outdoor Use". Extension cords, when not in use should be
stored in a dry and well ventilated area.

Always switch off generator's no-fuse breaker and disconnect tools or appli­ances when not in use, before servicing, adjusting, or installing accessories
and attachments.
