3500 Watt Portable Generator
4
• DO NOT tamper with governed speed. Generator
supplies correct rated frequency and voltage when
running at governed speed.
• DO NOT modify generator in any way.
Excessively high operating speeds increase risk of
injury and damage to generator.
Excessively low speeds impose a heavy load.
CAUTION
• See “Don’t Overload Generator”.
• Start generator and let engine stabilize before connecting
electrical loads.
• Connect electrical loads in OFF position, then turn ON
for operation.
• Turn electrical loads OFF and disconnect from generator
before stopping generator.
Exceeding generators wattage/amperage capacity
can damage generator and/or electrical devices
connected to it.
CAUTION
• Use generator only for intended uses.
• If you have questions about intended use, ask dealer or
contact Briggs & Stratton service center.
• Operate generator only on level surfaces.
• DO NOT expose generator to excessive moisture, dust,
dirt, or corrosive vapors.
• DO NOT insert any objects through cooling slots.
• If connected devices overheat, turn them off and
disconnect them from generator.
• Shut off generator if:
-electrical output is lost;
-equipment sparks, smokes, or emits flames;
-unit vibrates excessively.
Improper treatment of generator can damage it and
shorten its life.
CAUTION
WHEN ADJUSTING OR MAKING REPAIRS TO YOUR
GENERATOR
• Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and
place the wire where it cannot contact spark plug.
WHEN TESTING FOR ENGINE SPARK
• Use approved spark plug tester.
• DO NOT check for spark with spark plug removed.
Unintentional sparking can result in fire or
electric shock.
WARNING
• DO NOT touch hot surfaces and avoid hot exhaust
gases.
• Allow equipment to cool before touching.
• Keep at least 5 ft. (152 cm) clearance on all sides of
generator including overhead.
Running engines produce heat. Temperature
of muffler and nearby areas can reach or
exceed 150°F (65°C).
Severe burns can occur on contact.
Exhaust heat/gases can ignite combustibles,
structures or damage fuel tank causing a fire.
WARNING
• When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is
felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.
• NEVER start or stop engine with electrical devices
plugged in and turned on.
Rapid retraction of starter cord (kickback)
will pull hand and arm toward engine faster
than you can let go.
Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains
could result.
