Safety Warnings and Precautions

Fire Safety

Exhaust system components are very hot during and after use. Hot components can cause burns and fire. Do not touch the hot exhaust system components. Always keep combustible materials away from the exhaust system.

Ensure that any spilled fuel is properly wiped up prior to using the generator as fuel vapors are flammable.

Extension Cord Information

Read the manufacturer starting and running wattage details and operating instructions for the device(s) and appliance(s) that will be used. Often this information can be found in the owner's manual or on specification decals on the device or appliance.

POLARIS recommends using only U.L. (Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.) approved extension cords labeled with the use, size, and wattage rating. Only use heavy-duty extension cords with a three-prong (grounded) plug for your safety. Decide on what length extension cord is required as cord length determines the extension cord gauge. Remember, as the cord gets longer, the current capacity of the cord decreases.

Never use an extension cord designated as “indoor use only” outdoors.

Store all extension cords indoors when not in use. Outdoor conditions can deteriorate a cord over time.

Never keep an extension cord plugged in when not in use. The cord will still conduct electricity until it is unplugged from the outlet.

Before plugging an extension cord or power cord into the generator, check the cord for any signs of damage.

Equipment Modifications

Modifying the generator by adding or removing any parts, components, or any modifications not approved by POLARIS may void the warranty. Such modifications may make the generator unsafe to operate and could result in severe injury to operators and / or bystanders, as well as damage to the generator. Some modifications may not be legal in your area. If in doubt, contact your authorized POLARIS supplier.
