RULES FOR SAFE OPERATIONS

Safety precautions are essential when operating this generator. Respectful and cautious operation will considerably lessen the possibilities of a personal injury. This manual will warn of specific personal injury potential, and these will be designated by the symbol:

WARNING This generator is equipped with a grounding clamp, located on the generator frame for your protection. Always complete the grounding path from the generator to a copper pipe/rod that is driven into moist earth, to prevent electrical shock.

ALWAYS use electrical cords that are in good condition. Worn, bare, frayed or otherwise damaged cords can cause electric shock.

ALWAYS use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in damp or highly electrical conductive areas and on construction job sites to prevent electric shock.

ALWAYS remove PTO driveline before working on the generator.

ALWAYS provide adequate ventilation. Do not operate generator in any enclosed or narrow space. Engines consume oxygen and give off deadly carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas. Improper ventilation will cause damage to generator and possible injury to people.

ALWAYS remove all oil or gasoline deposits and accumulated dirt from generator and immediate area. Keep generator head and engine clean.

ALWAYS wear ear protection while operating generator.

ALWAYS keep area around generator clean. NEVER operate the generator without proper

guarding.

NEVER operate the generator continuously when PTO driveline is at angle greater than 15° both horizontally and vertically .
