SAFETY AND OPERATION RULES

WARNING - Failure to follow these instructions and warnings may result in death, personal injury, or property damage.

1.Read carefully and understand operator manual prior to operation of this product. Read and understand engine manual prior to operation. Follow all warnings and instructions.

2.Know your equipment. Consider the applications, limitations, and the potential hazards specific to your unit.

3.Equipment must be placed on a firm, supporting surface.

4.Load must be kept within rating stated on generator nameplate. Overloading will damage the unit or shorten its life.

5.Engine must not be run at excessive speeds. Operating an engine at excessive speeds increases the hazard of personal injury.

Do not tamper with parts which may increase or decrease the governed speed.

6.To prevent accidental starting, always remove the spark plug or cable from the spark plug before maintaining the generator or engine.

7.Units with broken or missing parts, or without protective housing or covers, should never be operated. Contact your service center for replacement parts.

8.Units should not be operated or stored in wet or damp conditions or on highly conductive locations such as metal decking and steel work.

9.Keep the generator clean and free of oil, mud and other foreign matter.

10.Extension cords, power cords, and all electrical equipment must be in good condition. Never operate electrical equipment with damaged or defective cords.

11.Store the generator in a well ventilated area with the fuel tank empty. Fuel should not be stored near the generator.

12.Your generator should never be operated under these conditions:

a.Uncontrolled change in engine speed.

b.Electrical output loss.

c.Overheating in connected equipment.

d.Sparking.

e.Damaged receptacles.

f.Engine misfire.

g.Excessive vibration.

h.Flame or smoke.

i.Enclosed compartment.

j.Rain or inclement weather. Do not let the unit get wet when operating.

13.Check the fuel system periodically for leaks or signs of deterioration such as chafed or spongy hose, loose or missing clamps, or damaged tank or cap. All defects should be corrected before operation.

14.The generator should be operated, serviced, and refueled only under the following conditions:

a.Start and run the generator outdoors. Do not run the generator in an enclosed area, even if doors or windows are open; avoid areas where vapors may be trapped, such as pits, garages, cellars, excavations and boat bilges. DANGER - CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD: The engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a poisonous, odorless, invisible gas which, if breathed, may cause death or serious personal injury. If you start to feel sick, dizzy or weak while using the generator, shut it off and get to fresh air right away; you may have carbon monoxide poisoning.

b.Good ventilation for cooling. Air flow and temperatures are important for air cooled units. Temperatures should not exceed 104º F ambient (40º C).

c.Refuel the generator in a well lighted area. Avoid fuel spills and never refuel while the generator is running. Allow engine to cool for two minutes prior to refueling.
