Dress properly. Contain long hair, clothing, jewelry, and gloves
as they can be caught in moving parts.
•
Avoid accidental starting. Make sure the power switch is in its
"OFF" position, and disconnect the spark plug wire when not in
use.
•
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the generator
on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the
generator may result in personal injury.
•
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
•
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Wear ANSI
approved safety impact eye goggles. Dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, safety gloves, hard hat, or hearing protection must be
used for appropriate conditions.
•
Do not use the generator if the power switch does not turn it
on or off. Any generator that cannot be controlled with the
power switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
•
Do not force the generator. Use the correct generator for
your application. The correct generator will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
Generator Use and Care
•
Make sure the power switch is in its "OFF" position and
disconnect the spark plug wire before making any adjustment,
changing accessories, or storing the generator. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the generator
accidentally.
•
Store idle generators out of reach of children and other untrained
persons. Generators are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
•
Maintain generators with care. Do not use a damaged generator.
Tag damaged generators "Do not use" until repaired.
•
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, and any other condition that may affect the generator's
operation. If damaged, have the generator serviced before using.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained generators.
•
Use only accessories that are recommended by the
manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable
for one generator may become hazardous when used on another
generator.
