operation

DANGER:

Carbon Monoxide. Using a generator indoors will KILL YOU IN MINUTES.

Generator exhaust contains high levels of carbon mon- oxide (CO), a poisonous gas you cannot see or smell. If you can smell the generator exhaust, you are breathing CO. But even if you cannot smell the exhaust, you could be breathing CO.

Never use a generator inside homes, garages, crawl- spaces, or other partly enclosed areas. Deadly levels of carbon monoxide can build up in these areas. Us- ing a fan or opening windows and doors does NOT supply enough fresh air.

ONLY use a generator outdoors and far away from open windows, doors, and vents. These openings can pull in generator exhaust.

Even when you use a generator correctly, CO may leak into the home. ALWAYS use a battery-powered or bat- tery-backup CO alarm in the home.

If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the generator has been running, move to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You could have carbon monoxide poisoning.

danger:

Failure to properly ground generator can result in elec- trocution, especially if the generator is equipped with a wheel kit. National Electric Code requires generator to be properly grounded to an approved earth ground. Call an electrician for local grounding requirements.
