! Always securely fasten weld- ing generator onto transport vehicle or trailer and comply with all DOT and other applica- ble codes.

! Always ground generator frame to vehicle frame to pre- vent electric shock and static electricity hazards.

! If unit does not have GFCI re- ceptacles, use GFCI-protected extension cord.

NOTICE − Do not install unit where air flow is restricted or engine may overheat.
