DANGER: Use only in well-
vented areas. Make sure area has
plenty of free-moving, fresh, out-
side air. Never run generator in
an enclosed or confined area.
Never run generator inside occu-
pied building. Engine exhaust

This generator needs cooling air to run prop-
erly. Never block free-flowing, cooling air
to generator. Overheating will occur with-
out cooling air. This will damage the gen-
erator. Keep generator at least three feet
away from any object.

tions increases the risk of elec-
trocution. Severe injury or death
can occur.
Do not use generator in extremely dusty or
dirty conditions. This will severely affect its
life. Keep generator clean. Do not allow
dust, dirt, rain, or snow to collect on it.

GENERAL
INFORMATION
Reddy portable generators are rugged and
compact. These models provide dependable,
trouble-free service. The alternators are
brushless with revolving fields. Honda gaso-
line engines provide long life under heavy
use. Honda engines have overhead valves
(OHV). This provides high performance with
lower fuel consumption. These engines are
governed to maintain engine speed of 3600
RPM under load. 3600 RPM engine speed
provides 120/240V, 60 Hz power.
