Additional safety rules for generators

•Do not operate in a hazardous location. Such areas include where there is a risk of explosion of petrol fumes, leaking gas or explosive dust.

•Do not operate in a confined area. Exhaust gases, smoke or fumes could reach dangerous concentrations.

•The output of this generator is potentially lethal. The generator should not be connected to a fixed electrical installation except by an appropriately licensed person.

•Protect your generator. This generator is NOT WEATHERPROOF and should not be exposed to direct sunlight, high ambient temperature and damp, wet or high humidity conditions.

•Do not smoke while refuelling. This is potentially dangerous as it may ignite the fuel and cause an explosion.

•Take care not to spill fuel. When refuelling the generator ensure that the motor has been switched off. Prevent the spilling of fuel as this may also ignite with the hot motor. Never refuel whilst the engine running.

•Be careful where you store the generator. Store the generator in a dry area away from inflammable liquids.

•Keep your distance. The generator emits exhaust fumes. As a safety precaution do not stand close to the unit whilst it is in operation. Ensure bystanders also keep their distance.

•Ground (earth) your generator. Ensure that the generator has been ground by using an earth lead. Simply connect one end of the Earth lead to the generator where marked and the other end should be pressed into the ground.

•Ensure the generator has oil. Before commencing the generator, ensure that the unit has been filled with SAE#30 4 stroke oil.

•Never fill fuel tank indoors. Never fill fuel tank when engine is running or hot. Do not smoke when filling fuel tank.

•Engine speed has been factory set to provide safe operation. Tampering with the engine speed adjustment could result in overheating of attachments and could cause a fire. Never attempt to “speed-up” the engine to obtain more performance. Both the output voltage and frequency will be thrown out of standard by this practice, endangering attachments and the user.

You MUST unplug any load from the generator before starting and stopping to prevent permanent damage to any appliances.

Unpacking

Due to modern mass production techniques, it is unlikely that your GMC generator is faulty or that a part is missing. If you find anything wrong, do not operate the tool until the parts have been replaced or the fault has been rectified. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury.
