TRANSPORTINGDo not lay the generator on its side when moving, storing, or
operating it. Oil may leak and damage theengine or your property.
If the generator has been used, allow it cool for at least 15 minutes
before loading the generator on the transport vehicle. A hot engine
and exhaust system can burn you and can ignite some material.
To prevent fuel spillage when transporting, the generator should be
secured upright in its normal operating position, with the engine
switch OFF and the fuel tank cap vent lever turned fully
counterclockwise to the OFF position (see page ).

place heavy objects on the generator.
When using ropes or tie-down straps to secure the generator for
transportation, be sure to only use the front and rear handles as
attachment points. Do not fasten ropes or straps to any portions of the
generator body or the folding handle.
