PORTABLE GASOLINE GENERATORS

1. Gasoline presents a hazard of ﬁre or

explosion. Gasoline is ﬂammable. Its
vapor is explosive.
• Keep fuel out of children’s reach.
• Refuel generator in a well-vented

area. Do not ﬁll fuel tank in the dark.
Do not refuel while engine is run-
ning. Unhook all electrical loads and
shut off engine before refueling.

• Do not overﬁll fuel tank. Always al-

low room for fuel to expand. If you
overﬁll tank, fuel can overﬂow onto
hot generator. This can cause ﬁre or
explosion. After refueling, tightly
close fuel tank cap.

• Do not spill fuel. Fuel or fuel vapor

may ignite. If fuel spills, make sure
area is dry before starting engine.

• Never smoke in refueling area. Never

allow open ﬂames or sparks in area.

• Store fuel in approved container.

Store fuel in a well-vented area free
of open ﬂames or sparks.

2. Guard against ﬁre hazard. Keep opera-

tion area well-vented. Keep generator at
least three feet away from any object.
Do not place ﬂammable objects near
generator.
• Do not use generator where ﬂam-

mable vapors are present. Some
vapors are heavier than air. These
vapors settle in low-lying places.

• Do not use generator in enclosed

spaces. This includes motor home
or RV generator compartments.

3. Guard against electric shock. Generator

produces high voltage. This high voltage
can cause severe electric shock. Only re-
sponsible adults should use generator.
• Properly ground generator before

starting.

• Never let anyone operate or service

generator without proper instructions.

• Avoid contact with live terminals or

bare wires.

• Do not use generator outdoors in rain

or snow.

• Do not use generator near standing

water or snow.

• Do not use if generator is wet or

damp.

Engine exhaust contains poisonous carbon
monoxide gas. Overexposure will cause loss
of consciousness and will lead to death. Use
only in well-vented areas. Make sure area
has plenty of free-moving, fresh, outside
air. Never run generator in an enclosed or
conﬁned area. Never run generator inside
occupied building.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early

signs of carbon monoxide poisoning re-

semble the ﬂu, with headaches, dizziness,

and nausea. If you have these signs, get

fresh air at once! Some people are more

affected by carbon monoxide than others.

These include pregnant women, persons

with heart or lung disease or anemia, those

under the inﬂuence of alcohol, and those at

high altitudes. Make certain you read and

understand all warnings. Keep this manual

for reference. It is your guide to safe and

proper operation of this generator.
Safety information appears throughout these
instructions. Pay close attention to them.
Below are deﬁnitions for the safety informa-
tion listed throughout this manual.
DANGER: indicates a hazard which will cause

severe personal injury, death, or substantial
property damage if you ignore warning.
WARNING: indicates a hazard which can

cause severe personal injury, death, or substan-
tial property damage if you ignore warning.
CAUTION: indicates a hazard which will

or can cause minor personal injury or

property damage if you ignore warning.

SAFETY

INFORMATION

• Do not use generator in highly con-

ductive areas. These areas include
metal decking and steelwork.

• Only use grounded extension cords.
• Do not use any worn or damaged

electric cords. Electric shock or dam-
age to generator may result.

• Do not wear damp clothing or wet

shoes when using generator.

4. Guard against burns. Hot engine parts

can cause severe injury. Use caution and
remain alert when using generator.
• Keep children and animals away from

generator while it is running or hot.

• Keep all covers and shields in place.

Keep them tightly secured.

• The mufﬂer becomes very hot dur-

ing operation. The mufﬂer remains
hot for a while after shutdown. Do
not  touch  muffler  while  it  is  hot.
Do  not  let  mufﬂer  touch  anything
ﬂammable.  Let  engine  cool  before
transporting or storing.

5. Have standby installation to home

or building performed by a licensed
electrician. Do not let anyone else wire
into a utility circuit. Personal injury,
equipment damage, or damage to home
could occur.

6. Never connect generator to any exist-

ing  electrical  circuits.  The  generator
output  will  back-feed  into  the  utility
power  line.  This  may  electrocute  a
power  company  line  repair  person.
Also, if generator is powering electrical
circuits, the chance of an electrical ﬁre
exists.

7. Battery gives off explosive gases. Keep

sparks, ﬂames, and cigarettes away. Do
not remove or install battery cables
when engine is cranking or running.
Only service or use battery in a well-
vented area.

8. Battery contains sulfuric acid. Battery

acid is poisonous if swallowed. Contact
with skin or eyes may cause severe
burns. Do not tilt generator with battery
installed. Tilting could cause battery
acid to spill. Wear protective clothing
and face shield when servicing. Keep
out of children’s reach.

WARNINGS

IMPORTANT: Read this owner’s

manual and the engine owner’s

manual carefully. Become familiar

with this generator before trying

to operate or service it. Know

its uses, limitations, and any

hazards involved. Improper use

of generator can cause severe

injury or death from explosion,

ﬁre, burns, electrical shock, or

carbon monoxide poisoning.

DANGER: Carbon monoxide

poisoning may lead to death!
