GEN3250 3250 Surge Watts/2500 Running Watts Portable Generator 6
Powerful Voltage: This generator produces powerful voltage, which can result in electrocution.
• ALWAYS ground this generator before using it. (See “Ground the Generator” section in this manual).
• Only electrical devices should be plugged into this generator, either directly or with an extension cord. NEVER connect a building electrical
system to this generator without a qualified electrician. Such connections must isolate generator power from utility power and comply with local
electrical laws and codes. Failure to comply can create a back feed into utility lines creating an electrocution hazard, which may result in serious
injury or death to utility workers. Such a back feed may cause this generator to explode, burn and create fires when utility power is restored.
• Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in highly conductive areas such as metal decking or steel work. GFCIs are available in-line with
some extension cords.
• Do not use this generator in wet conditions (rain, snow, active sprinkler system, wet hands, etc.). Always keep this generator dry and operate
it with dry hands.
• Do not touch bare wires or outlets (receptacles).
• Do not allow children or non-qualified persons to operate this generator.
High Temperatures: This generator produces heat when in operation. Temperatures near the exhaust can exceed 150 Degrees
Fahrenheit (65 Degrees Celsius).
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Observe all warning placards on this generator denoting hot surfaces.
• Allow this generator to cool for several minutes after use before touching the engine, muffler or other areas that are hot during operation and
before storing indoors.
• Hot exhaust may ignite some materials. Keep flammable materials away from this generator.
• Keep at least several feet of clearance on all sides of this generator during operation. Do not enclose this generator in any structure.
Usage: Misuse of this generator can damage it or shorten its life.
• Use this generator only for its intended purpose.
• Operate this generator only on a dry, level surface. Do not secure the generator with a chain or rope, which would prevent it from being moved
in an emergency.
• Allow this generator to run for several minutes before connecting any electrical devices.
• Promptly turn off any malfunctioning devices and disconnect them.
• Do not operate an excessive number of electrical devices in excess of the wattage capacity of this generator.
• Do not turn on electrical devices until after they are connected to this generator.
• Turn off all connected electrical devices before stopping this generator.
Usage: Consult a physician(s) before using this generator if using a pacemaker. Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to a heart
pacemaker could cause a pacemaker to malfunction or fail. Caution is necessary when near the engine’s recoil starter.
Usage: Prolonged exposure to high noise levels can be hazardous to hearing. Always wear ANSI-approved hearing protection when
operating or working around the generator when it is running.
Usage: This generator is not intended to power sensitive electronic equipment such as TVs, DVD players, stereos, desktop
computers or laptop computers without the use of an appropriate line conditioner and/or surge protector (both not included).
Sensitive electronic equipment should be operated on approved inverter type generators or pure sine wave generators. For additional
information consult the devices operation manual or call customer service at 1-866-460-9436 Monday - Friday, 8 AM - 4 PM Central Time.
Usage: Avoid the use of extension cords if possible. If you choose to use them, be sure they are sized adequately to handle the flow of
electricity. An undersized cord can overheat, short out and cause a fire.
