SAFETY WARNINGS
zPlace protective covers and guards over the rotating parts, if rotating parts such as the drive shaft, pulley, belt, etc. are left exposed, they are potentially hazardous.
zWhen cleaning, repairing or inspecting, make sure all moving parts have stopped.

zDo not operate the generator set without a muffler. Inspect periodically and replace if necessary.
zDo not touch the hot exhaust components or the high voltage spark plug and coil terminals. While Spark Plug Voltages are not normally lethal, an involuntary jerk of the hand caused by a hot surface or by
an electrical shock can result in injury.
