GENERAL INFORMATION
This generator is not large enough to power your entire home. Do not connect
generator to any existing electrical circuits. Plug items directly into generator
receptacles. Do not exceed amperage rating of receptacles. Only use grounded
cords.
DANGER
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. Engine exhaust
contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas.
Overexposure will cause loss of consciousness
and will lead to death.
WARNING
Never connect generator to any existing 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.
Note:
We supply the engine owner’s manual with generator. Refer to that manual
for questions concerning engine operation.
