Owner’s Manual
Danger: This generator is designed for outdoor use only. Do not use this generator inside
any building or enclosure including the generator compartment of a recreational vehicle
(RV). Fire or an explosion may result. No user performed modifications, including venting
of exhaust and/or cooling ventilation, will eliminate the danger. Also, allow at least two feet
of clearance on all sides of the generator even while operating the unit outdoors.
Danger: If this unit is used for backup power in the event of a utility power failure, the fol-
lowing step must be taken: Before connecting the generator to an electrical system, open
the main circuit breaker or main switch serving the system, to isolate the generator
system from the electric utility. Failure to isolate the generator and utility systems may
result in damage to the generator and may also result in injury or death to electric utility
workers, due to a backfeed of electrical energy.
This symbol points out important safety instructions, which, if not followed, could endanger the
personal safety and/or property of yourself and others. Read and follow all instructions in the
manual before attempting to operate this unit.
