DANGER
Fuel and fuel vapors are highly flammable and
extremely explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or
death.
Unintentional startup can result in entanglement,
traumatic amputation or laceration.
When adding or removing fuel
Turn the generator off and let it cool for at least
two minutes before removing the fuel cap.
Loosen the cap slowly to relieve pressure in the
tank.
Only fill or drain fuel outdoors in a well-ventilated
area.
DO NOT overfill the fuel tank.
Always keep fuel away from sparks, open flames,
pilot lights, heat and other sources of ignition.
DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes.
When starting the generator
DO NOT attempt to start a damaged generator.
Make certain that the gas cap, air filter, spark
plug, fuel lines and exhaust system are properly
in place.
Allow spilled fuel to evaporate fully before
attempting to start the engine.
Make certain that the generator is resting firmly
on level ground.
When operating the generator:
DO NOT move or tip the generator during
operation.
DO NOT tip the generator or allow fuel or oil to
spill.
When transporting or servicing the
generator:
Make certain that the fuel shutoff valve is in the
off position and the fuel tank is empty.
Disconnect the spark plug wire.
When storing the generator:
Store away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights,
heat and other sources of ignition.
WARNING
Rapid retraction of the starter cord will pull hand
and arm towards the engine faster than you can
let go.
Unintentional startup can result in entanglement,
traumatic amputation or laceration.
Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains could
result.
When starting engine, pull the starter cord slowly
until resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to
avoid kickback.
DO NOT start or stop the engine with electrical
devices plugged in.
CAUTION
Exceeding the generator’s running capacity can
damage the generator and/or electrical devices
connected to it
DO NOT overload the generator.
Start the generator and allow the engine to
stabilize before connecting electrical loads.
Connect electrical equipment in the off position,
and then turn them on for operation.
Turn electrical equipment off and disconnect
before stopping the generator.
DO NOT tamper with the governed speed.
DO NOT modify the generator in any way.
CAUTION
Improper treatment or use of the generator can
damage it, shorten its life and void your
warranty.
Use the generator only for intended uses.
Operate only on level surfaces.
DO NOT expose generator to excessive moisture,
dust, or dirt.
DO NOT allow any material to block the cooling
slots.
If connected devices overheat, turn them off and
disconnect them from the generator.
DO NOT use the generator if:
Electrical output is lost
Equipment sparks, smokes or emits flames
Equipment vibrates excessively
