SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS
ADO
not operate the generator near gasoline or gaseous fuel because of the
potential danger of explosion or fire.
Do
not fill the fuel tank with fuel while the engine is running.
Do
not smoke or
use open flame near the fuel tank. Be careful not to spill fuel during refueling.
If
fuel is spilt, wipe it off and let dry before starting the engine.
A
Do
not place inflammables near the generator.
Be careful not to place fuel, matches, gunpowder, oily cloths, straw, trash, or
any other inflammables near the generator.
ADO
not operate the generator inside a room, cave, tunnel, or other insuffi-
ciently ventilated area. Always operate it in a well-ventilated area, otherwise
the engine may become overheated, and the poisonous carbon monoxide gas
contained in the exhaust gases will endanger human lives. Keep the gener-
ator at least
1
meter
(3
feet) away from any structure or building during use.
If
the generator must be used indoors, the area must be well-ventilated and
extreme caution must be taken regarding the discharge of exhaust gases.
A
Do not enclose the generator nor cover it with a box.
The generator has a built-in forced air cooling system, and may become
overheated if
it
is enclosed.
If
generator has been covered to protect it from
the weather during non use, be sure to remove it and keep it well away from
the area during generator use.
A
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.
APay 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.
A
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.
