EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM INFORMATION The U.S. and California Clean Air Acts EPA and California regulations require all manufacturers to furnish written instructions describing the operation and maintenance of emis­sion control systems. The following instructions and procedures must be followed in order to keep the emissions from your STANLEY engine within the emission standards. Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission control devices and systems may be performed by any engine repair establishment or individual, using parts that are ‘‘certified’’ to EPA standards.
SAFETY LABEL LOCATIONS These labels warn you of potential hazards that can cause serious injury. Read them carefully. If a label comes off or becomes hard to read, contact your STANLEY generator dealer for a replacement.
SAFETY INFORMATION STANLEY generators are designed to give safe and dependable service if operated according to instructions. Read and under­stand this owner’s manual before operating your generator.

WARNING
The engine exhaust from this product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other re­productive harm.
DANGER
CARBON MONOXIDE GAS
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas. Breathing exhaust can cause loss of consciousness and may lead to death. To keep exhaust gas from accumulating, use in an area with adequate ventilation. DO NOT use this genera­tor in a garage, basement, crawlspace, enclosed shed, or any other area that does not have adequate ventilation. DO NOT use this generator near ventilation ducts or open windows that may allow exhaust
gasses to enter your home or business. ONLY
operate this generator outdoors.
DANGER
Fire and Burn Hazards The exhaust system gets hot enough to ignite some materials.
 Keep the generator at least 3 feet (1 meter) away from buildings
and other equipment during operation.
 Do not enclose the generator in any structure.  Do not smoke when refueling.  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.  Refuel in a well ventilated area with the engine stopped.  Fuel vapors are extremely flammable and may ignite after the en-
gine has started. Make sure that any spilled fuel has been wiped up before starting
the generator.
DANGER
Electocution hazard - Electricity can cause DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY.
 Do not operate the generator when moisture is present.  This product is not safe to operate in the presence of water or
near water.
 Properly ground the generator and verify ground is in place
before each use. Grounding regulations vary by location, con­sult a qualified local electrician for proper grounding instruc­tions.
 Power cords and electrical equipment pose a risk of shock and
electrocution, especially if they are operated in wet conditions. Inspect all equipment prior to every use and use only as di­rected by the manufacturer.
 Use a cord with GFCI protection when using the power out-
doors or when moisture is present.
 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.

WARNING
Do not connect this generator to a building electrical system.
Improper connections to a building electrical system can allow electrical current from the generator to backfeed into the utility lines. Such backfeed may electrocute utility company workers or others who contact the lines during a power outage, and the gen­erator may explode, burn, or cause fires when utility power is re­stored.
Ground System STANLEY portable generators have a system ground that connects gen­erator frame components to the ground terminals in the AC output re­ceptacles. The system ground is connected to the AC neutral wire.
Special Requirements There may be Federal or State Occupational Safety and Health Admini­stration (OSHA) regulations, local codes, or ordinances that apply to the intended use of the generator. Please consult a qualified electrician, electrical inspector, or the local agency having jurisdiction.
This generator does not meet US Coast Guard regulation 33 CFR-183 and should not be used on marine applications.
