may cause electrical shock and damage to the
generator.
NOTICE
make certain that proper power or extension
cord has been selected for the job. See Cable Selection
Chart in this manual.
Grounding Safety
DANGER
make sure that electrical circuits are properly
grounded to a suitable earth ground (ground rod) per
the National Electrical Code (NEC) and local codes
before operating generator.
Severe injury or death by
electrocution
can result from operating an ungrounded
generator.
use gas piping as an electrical ground.
DANGER
DO NOT
drop the battery. There is a possibility that the
battery will explode.
DO NOT expose the battery to open fl ames,
sparks, cigarettes, etc. The battery contains
combustible gases and liquids. If these
gases and liquids come into contact with a

handling the battery to avoid eye irritation.
The battery contains acids that can cause
injury to the eyes and skin.
Use well-insulated gloves when picking up the battery.
keep the battery charged. If the battery is not
charged, combustible gas will build up.
recharge the battery in a well-ventilated
environment to avoid the risk of a dangerous concentration
of combustible gasses.
