Operate the generator on a level surface.
It is not necessary to prepare a special foundation for the generator. However,
the generator will vibrate on an irregular surface, so choose a level place
without surface irregularities.
If the generator is tilted or moved during operation, fuel may spill and/ or the
generator may tip over, causing a hazardous situation.
Proper lubrication cannot be expected if the generator is operated on a steep
incline or slope. In such a case, piston seizure may occur even if the oil is
above the upper level.
Pay attention to the wiring or extension cords from the generator to the
connected device.
If the wire is under the generator or in contact with a vibrating part, it may
break and possibly cause a fire, generator burnout, or electric shock hazard.
Replace damaged or worn cords immediately.
Do not operate in rain, in wet or damp conditions, or with wet hands.
The operator may suffer severe electric shock if the generator is wet due to
rain or snow.
If wet, wipe and dry it well before starting. Do not pour water directly over the
generator, nor wash it with water.
Be extremely careful that all necessary electrical grounding procedures are
followed during each and every use. Failure to do so can be fatal.
Do not contact the generator to a commercial power line. Connection to a
commercial power line may short circuit the generator and ruin it or cause
electric shock hazard. Use the transfer switch for connecting to domestic
circuit.
No smoking while handling the battery. The battery emits flammable hydrogen
gas, which can explode if exposed to electric arcing or open flame.
Keep the area well-ventilated and keep open flames/sparks away when
handling the battery.
