IMPORTANT: The generator must be at least 5 ft.

(152 cm) from structures having combustible walls and/or other combustible materials. Leave at least 3 ft. (92 cm) all around generator including overhead, for adequate cooling, maintenance and servicing.

WARNING

Running engines produce heat.Temperature of muffler and nearby areas can reach or exceed 150°F (65°C).

Severe burns can occur on contact.

Combustible debris, such as leaves, grass, brush, etc. can catch fire.

•DO NOT touch hot surfaces.

•Allow equipment to cool before touching.

•The generator must be at least 5 feet from structures having combustible walls and/or other combustible materials.

•Keep at least 3 feet of clearance on all sides of generator for adequate cooling, maintenance and servicing.

•Remove shelter when temperatures are above 40°F [4°C].

9.Cut appropriate slots to access receptacles of unit.

10.Start unit, then place carton over it.

NOTE: Remove shelter when temperatures are above 40°F [4°C].

For a more permanent shelter, build a structure that will enclose three sides and the top of the generator.

7.Make sure entire muffler-side of generator is exposed, as shown in Figure 7.

IMPORTANT: The generator must be at least 5 ft.

(152 cm) from structures having combustible walls and/or other combustible materials. Leave at least 3 ft. (92 cm) all around generator including overhead, for adequate cooling, maintenance and servicing.

8.Face exposed end away from wind and elements.

9.Structure should hold enough heat created by the generator to prevent icing problem.

10.Start and run engine outdoors.

11.Keep exhaust gas from entering a confined area through windows, doors, ventilation intakes or other openings.

DANGER

Running generator gives off carbon monoxide, an odorless, colorless, poison gas.

Breathing carbon monoxide will cause nausea, fainting or death.

•Operate generator ONLY outdoors.

•Keep exhaust gas from entering a confined area through windows, doors, ventilation intakes or other openings.

•DO NOT operate generator inside any building or enclosure, including the generator compartment of a recreational vehicle (RV).

12.DO NOT enclose generator any more than shown in Figure 7.

13.Remove shelter when temperatures are above 40°F [4°C].

14.Turn engine OFF and let cool two (2) minutes before refueling.
