NOTICE addresses practices not related to personal injury.

The manufacturer cannot possibly anticipate every possible circumstance that might involve a hazard. The warnings in this manual, and the tags and decals affixed to the unit are, therefore, not all-inclusive. If you use a procedure, work method or operating technique that the manufacturer does not specifically recommend, you must satisfy yourself that it is safe for you and others. You must also make sure that the procedure, work method or operating technique that you choose does not render the generator system unsafe.

t DO NOT allow any open flame, spark, heat, or lit cigarette during and for several minutes after charging a battery.

t DO NOT open or mutilate the battery.

t Wear protective goggles, rubber apron, rubber boots and rubber gloves.

t Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects. t Use tools having insulated handles.
