Safety Warnings and Precautions

It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all users of this genera- tor are fully informed of the safety and operating information prior to use.

Before and During Operation

•Perform all Pre-Operation Inspection activities as shown on page 26 of this manual. Inspect and tighten all parts before each use. Ensure the generator does not have any damaged, loose, or missing parts before use. All defects should be corrected before use. Do not operate the generator if it has been dropped or damaged until all defective parts have been repaired.

•Do not place any flammable materials near the generator.

•Never start the generator or let it run in an enclosed area. Exhaust vapors are poisonous and can cause loss of consciousness or death in a short time. Keep the generator away from buildings and other equipment during operation.

•Do not operate the generator in exposed locations where it will be subjected to wet conditions.

•Do not touch the generator with wet hands, as this may cause severe electric shocks.

•Do not pour water directly over the generator or wash it.

•Do not use or store the generator in the rain or snow.

•Do not cover the generator when in use.

•Always operate the generator on a firm, flat, and level surface, as the generator will vibrate on an irregular surface. If the generator is tilted, fuel may spill or the generator may tip over, causing a hazardous situation. Lock the wheels before using.
