1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Please make sure you review each precaution carefully.

WARNING

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.

WARNING

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.

WARNING

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.

ENGLISH

WARNING

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.

WARNING

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.

WARNING

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.

−1−

WARNING

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.

WARNING

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

WARNING

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

WARNING

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.

WARNING

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.

WARNING

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.

WARNING

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

WARNING

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.

WARNING

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.

WARNING

Always switch off generator's AC circuit breaker and disconnect tools or appliances when not in use,

before servicing, adjusting, or installing accessories and attachments.

［

CAUTION

Make sure the engine is stopped before starting any maintenance, servicing or repair.

NOTE :

Make sure maintenance and repair of the generator set are performed by properly trained personnel only.
