System Ground
You must connect the ground wire to a metal stake, spike or screw in the earth before using the generator.

WARNING
Gasoline and its vapors are extremely flammable and can be explosive in certain conditions. Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
If the engine has been running, allow it to cool before adding any fuel/oil mix. Refill the tank outdoors. Remove the gas cap slowly to relieve any pressure inside the tank. Keep sparks, flames, heat and other ignition sources away while adding or storing oil and fuel. Do not light a cigarette or smoke when refueling. Wipe up any fuel spills.
WARNING
Improper connections to a building's electrical system can allow electrical current from the generator to backfeed into utility lines. This backfeed may electrocute utility company workers or others who contact the lines during a power outage. Consult the utility company or a qualified electrician.
CAUTION
Improper connections to a building's electrical system can allow electrical current from the utility company to backfeed into the generator. When utility power is restored, the generator may explode, burn or cause fires in the building's electrical system.
Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in any damp or highly conductive area, such as metal decking or steel work. Do not touch bare wires or receptacles. Do not use the generator with electrical cords that are worn, frayed, bare or damaged in any way. Do not operate the generator in the rain. Do not handle the generator or electrical cords while standing in water, while barefoot or while hands or feet are wet.
Do not allow children or unqualified people to operate the generator.
