SAFETY RULES FOR PETROL ENGINES
Carbon monoxide is a product of incomplete combustion, such as exhaust fumes from the engine. Carbon monoxide is colorless, odorless and taste­less and can kill in a matter of minutes.
Gas particulate filters and respirators will not protect someone from carbon monoxide poisoning. If symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning appear, take the affected person outdoors immediately and away from all structures and equipment that could produce the gas. Call for emergency medical treatment and make them aware of the sit­uation.
Operate generator only outdoors. Do not allow exhaust gas fumes from entering confined areas through windows, open doors, ventilation ducts and other openings.
Do not start or run engine indoors or in an enclosed area, such as a garage (even if windows and doors are open). This also applies to the engine com­partment of a recreational vehicle (RV).
The engine exhaust from this product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
DO NOT tamper with Evaporation and Exhaust Assembly in the generator.
7
SYMPTOMS OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, extremely toxic gas that can KILL in a matter of minutes. Breathing air containing carbon monoxide produces symptoms of headache, dizziness, loss of muscular control, a sleepy feeling and finally coma. Moderate or severe brain damage can result from inhaling air containing carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is a product of incomplete combustion of fuels and occurs in exhaust fumes of fuel-burning heaters and all internal combustion engines. Carbon Monoxide collects in spaces where there is no constant air flow or ventilation. If you start to feel sick, dizzy or weak due to exposure to CO while using a petrol engine, GET TO FRESH AIR IMMEDIATELY.
ADDING OR DRAINING PETROL TO OR FROM THE ENGINE
Petrol and petrol vapors are extremely flammable and explosive. Fire and explosion can result in severe burns and even death.
Turn engine to the OFF position and let cool at least two minutes before
removing petrol cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve pressure in petrol tank.
DO NOT fill or drain petrol tank inside enclosed structures. Accidental sparks
can result in fires or explosions leading to severe burns and even death.

DO NOT tip engine or equipment at an angle that could result in petrol spilling
from petrol tank.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Starter cord kickback (rapid retraction) can pull your hand and arm toward the engine faster than it can be let go of. Failure to be aware of this function can result in broken bones, fractures, bruises and sprains can result.
• When starting the engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt, then pull
rapidly to avoid kickback.
Unintentional sparking can result in fire or electric shock. Failure to observe this warning can result in property damage, severe burns and/or death.
• Ensure spark plug is in place before attempting to start engine.
• Ensure muffler is secured to engine before starting.
• Ensure petrol cap is on petrol tank and tightened securely.
• Ensure air cleaner is clean and properly attached to engine.
A dirty air cleaner element changes the air to petrol ratio and promotes incomplete combustion of petrol increasing the output of carbon monoxide. Always make sure air cleaner element is clean before every operation of the engine.
DO NOT crank engine with spark plug wire removed. The resulting spark
could ignite spilled petrol.
9
Do not contact muffler area with engine running. Muffler gets extremely hot and can cause severe burns. Exhaust gases can ignite combustible items such as clothing or structures in close proximity. Gases leaking from worn muffler can heat up and damage petrol tank resulting in fire or explosion.
DO NOT touch hot parts of engine or muffler.
AVOID hot exhaust gases.
Keep a minimum of 1.5M clearance on all sides of the engine including top.
Starter and other rotating parts of engine can entangle hair, hands, clothing and accessories.
NEVER operate with protective housing or covers removed.
DO NOT use while wearing loose clothing or jewellery that might get caught up
i in starter or other rotating parts. Tie up long hair or wear hair net or cap.
MAKING ADJUSTMENTS OR REPAIRS TO THE ENGINE
Excessively high operating speeds increase risk of injury and damage to engine. Excessively low speeds produce heavy load on engine.
DO NOT attempt to alter pre-set governed speed. Engine governor is factory
set to supply optimum output horse power (HP) when running at governed speed.
DO NOT modify engine in any way.
TESTING SPARK PLUG FOR SPARK
• DO NOT check spark plug for spark by removing from cylinder head.
Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug and cover tip with
non-conducting material such as electrical tape to prevent it from coming in contact with spark plug, petrol tank or other parts of the engine where damage can result from sparking.
Replace a defective spark plug only with authorized parts.
Use approved spark plug tester.

Local electrical codes may also require proper ground­ing of the unit. For this purpose, a GROUNDING TERMINAL is provided on the generator front panel.
The Ground and Neutral pins in all AC outlets in this generator are BONDED (permanently connected) to the generator frame and its components.
See “CONNECTING TO A BUILDING’S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM” section for important grounding information.
CONNECTING TO A BUILDING’S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Generator produces hazardous voltage. Failure to isolate generator from power utility can result in serious injury or death to electric utility workers due to backfeed of electrical energy. Do not connect the gener­ator directly into your home's electrical system through a receptacle outlet.
Connections to a building’s electrical system for usage as standby power must be provided by a qualified electrician. All connections must isolate generator power from utility power or other alternative power sources and must comply with all applicable laws and electrical codes.
When using generator for backup power, notify utility company. Use approved transfer equipment to isolate generator from electric utility.
THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE MUST BE PERFORMED BY A REGISTERED ELECTRIAIAN
The Neutral Bond Wire (located inside the alternator of the generator) must be removed when connecting this generator to a building electrical system.
1. Make sure engine is switched off. Perform the following:
2. Remove the Alternator rear cover by removing its two mounting hardware.
3. Remove mounting hardware and remove the Neutral/Ground Bonding jumper wire (Green/Yellow wire terminated by two ring lugs) which connects the terminal block to the and body (chassis) of the alternator. Reinstall hardware and tightenfirmly.
4. Replace the alternator cover and its mounting hardware and tighten.

OUTLETS AND CIRCUIT PROTECTORS
Overloaded electrical cords can overheat, arc and burn resulting in property damage, severe burns and even death.
Only use cords rated for the equipment it’s being used on. Follow all warnings and cautions in this manual for use of extension cords.
Keep extension cords as short as possible to minimize voltage drop.
21
Plugs NOT INCLUDED with generator.
Outlets may be marked with rating value greater than generator capacity. Never attempt to power a device requiring more amperage
than generator or extension cord can supply. Do not overload genera­tor because of risk of damage to equipment, fire or explosion.
Generators vibrate in normal use. During and after the use of the generator, inspect the generator as well as extension cords and power supply cords con­nected to it for damage resulting from vibration.
Have damaged items repaired or replaced as necessary. Do not use plugs or cords that show signs of damage such as broken or cracked insulation or dam­aged blades.
240V AC, 15A S223E-1 OUTLET:
Use this outlet to operate 240V AC, 50 Hz, single phase loads requiring up to 15A each outlet.
The outlet is protected by press-to-reset circuit protector. If the protector pops up due to appliance overload, remove the loads and wait a minute for the protector to cool down and then press to reset.
Use only high quality, well-insulated, grounded extension cords that are intended for outdoor use. It is important to inspect all extension cords for damaged plugs and cracked or cut insulation before every use.
CONNECTING TO GENERATOR OUTLETS
In order to prevent damage and prolong the life of the generator and any attached appliances or tools, it is very important to use caution when adding loads to the generator. Use the following steps as a guide to protect the generator and provide safety for those who use it.

GENERATOR CAPACITY AND APPLIANCE WATTAGE
Ensure generator can supply adequate rated (running) and peak (starting) wattage for devices it will power at same time. Follow the steps below:
1. Select all devices that will be powered at the same time.
2. Total rated running watts of devices. This is amount of power the generator must produce to keep devices running. See table below.
3. Estimate amount of peak (starting) wattage needed. Peak wattage is a short burst of power needed to start electric motor-driven tools and appliances such as an electric compressors, pumps, drills or refrigerators. Because not all motors start at same time, total peak wattage can be estimated by adding only the item(s) with highest additional peak watts to the total rated watts as described below.

Engine components should be kept clean reducing risk of overheating and ignition of accumulated debris.
• Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
• Use a soft bristle brush to loosen caked on dirt or oil.
• Use a shop-vacuum to pick up any loose dirt and debris.
Do not use water or other liquids to clean generator.
Cleaning fluids can enter petrol system resulting in poor performance.
Additionally, if fluids enter generator through cooling air slots, portions of the fluid can be retained in voids and cracks of the rotor and stator winding insulation. Over time, liquid and dirt buildup on internal windings will decrease insulation resistance on windings decreasing performance of generator.
STORAGE
Petrol and petrol vapor are extremely flammable and explosive. Fire or explosion from misuse of petrol can cause severe burns and even death.
TO PROTECT AGAINST RUST FORMATION DURING STORAGE, OIL THE CYLINDER BORE:
• Remove spark plug and pour approximately 15ml of clean engine oil into the cylinder.
• Install spark plug, switch on/off switch to the OFF position and pull start handle slowly to distribute oil. DO NOT start engine at this time.
• Slowly pull the recoil starter 2 to 3 times to distribute and coat the cylinder bore with oil.
29
Unintentional sparking can cause fire or electrical shock. Failure to observe this warning can cause severe property damage, severe burns and even death.
Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug and cover tip of spark plug wire with insulating tape and place wire where it cannot come in contact with spark plug or generator frame.
Other Storage Tips
1. DO NOT store petrol from one season to another unless it’s been treated with petrol stabilizer.
2. Replace petrol container, if metal, and it begins to rust. Rust and dirt and debris can con­taminate petrol supply and components resulting in poor performance and/or internal damage to engine. Petrol should be stored in newer approved plastic storage containers.
GENERATOR
1. Cover generator with a suitable cover that does not retain moisture such as a
plastic or plastic coated tarp.
2. Store generator in a clean, dry area.
Certain storage covers can be flammable or can
melt in higher temperatures. Do not place storage cover over
generator unit until it has completely cooled.
PREPARING FOR USE AFTER STORAGE
1. Switch the on/off switch to the OFF position then slowly pull the Start cord a few
times to clean oil from the cylinder which was added prior to storage.
2. Remove the spark plug from the cylinder. Wipe oil from the spark plug and return
it to the cylinder and retighten.
3. Reconnect the spark plug wire.
