IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS This manual contains important instructions for the generator that should be followed during installation, operation and maintenance of the generator.

For ease of reading, the Warning statements are divided into four categories: Operation, Burn, Installation, and Maintenance.

Operation

WARNING: Never operate this generator in a manner other than as described in this manual. Operation in any manner not described in this manual should be considered unsafe and should not be attempted. Never start the engine unless you have first verified that the installation and operation of the generator are as described in this manual.

WARNING: Be sure that you are completely familiar with the safe operation of this equipment. This equipment may be connected to other machines that have rotating parts or parts that are controlled by this equipment. Improper use can cause serious or fatal injury.

WARNING: Exhaust fumes/gases are extremely dangerous and can cause severe illness or death. Never breath exhaust fumes produced by a running engine. Only run the engine outdoors where ventilation is plentiful. Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless and extremely dangerous gas that can cause unconsciousness or death. Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning include: dizziness, nausea, headaches, sleepiness, vomiting or incoherence. If you or anyone else experiences these symptoms, get out into fresh air immediately. Stop the engine and do not restart the engine until it has been inspected and if necessary repaired or reinstalled in a well ventilated area.

WARNING: Hot exhaust gasses must never be directed toward anything that may catch fire or explode.

WARNING: This generator must not be used on or near any forest covered, brush covered, or grass covered land unless the engine’s exhaust system is equipped with a spark arrestor. The spark arrestor must be maintained in effective working order by the operator.

WARNING: Some parts of this generator rotate during operation. Rotating parts can present extreme danger if clothing or body extremities are caught by the rotating part and can cause serious or fatal injury. Never touch a part of the generator until the engine has been stopped and all rotating parts are completely stopped. Also, disconnect the spark plug wires and battery connection to prevent accidental engine rotation during servicing.

WARNING: Never move a generator set that is running. Loads should be connected and position secure before starting the engine. Hazards are caused by moving a generator set that is running.
