Safety Messages
Electric Shock Hazards
Generator produces powerful voltage that can cause
death or great physical harm.
• When using generator for backup power, notify utility
company. Use approved transfer equipment to isolate
generator from electric utility.
• NEVER connect to a building's electrical system unless
a transfer switch has been installed by a qualified elec-
trician.
• NEVER touch bare wires or receptacles.
• NEVER use generator with electrical cords that are
worn, frayed, bare, or otherwise damaged.
• NEVER operate generator in rain or snow, or when the
generator is set on wet surface.
Fire and Burn Hazards
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and
explosive under certain conditions.
• Refuel generator only outdoors, in a well-ventilated
area.
• NEVER enclose the generator in any structure.
• Keep generator at least 3 feet (1 meter) away from
buildings and other equipment during operation.
• NEVER fill fuel tank while the engine is running. Turn
generator OFF and allow to cool before filling with fuel.
• NEVER smoke or allow flames or sparks near the gen-
erator or where gasoline is stored.
• NEVER overfill the fuel tank (there should be no fuel in
the filler neck). After refueling, make sure the tank cap
is closed properly and securely.
• Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel
or fuel vapor may ignite. If any fuel is spilled, be sure
the area is dry before starting the engine.
• Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or
breathing of vapor.
The muffler becomes very hot during operation and
remains hot for a while after stopping the engine.
