CARBON MONOXIDE WARNING
Operate the generator ONLY outdoors. Never
run the generator indoors as the engine gives
off poisonous carbon monoxide, an odorless and
colorless gas. Inhaling carbon monoxide will
cause nausea, fainting or death. Also, keep the
generator at least 3 feet away from flammable
matter for adequate ventilation
GROUNDING THE UNIT
Always properly ground the generator. Failing to
do so can result in electrocution, particularly if
the generator is equipped with a wheel kit.
ELECTRIC SHOCK AND SHORT CIRCUIT
Be sure to notify the utility company
when using the generator for backup
power. Use approved transfer
equipment to isolate the generator from electric
utility. In highly conductive area such as metal
decking or steel work, use a ground circuit fault
interrupter. Never touch the generator if the
generator is wet. Also, never touch the
generator if your hand is wet. Never operate
your generator if the weather conditions call for
any type of precipitation such as rain, snow, or
fog.
Do not use electrical cords that have been
damaged (worn, bare, frayed)
Do not touch bare receptacles or wires
Do not allow children to operate the generator.
FUEL SAFETY
When using the LPG generator, please be sure
that there is some distance between LGP tank
and the LPG generator, to prevent unnecessary
danger because of the high temperature surface
area of the LPG tank. When using the unit,
please check the surface temperature of the
LPG tank.
Place the generator in a well‐ventilated area. DO
NOT place the generator near vents or intakes
where exhaust fumes could be drawn into
occupied or confined spaces. Carefully consider
wind and air currents when positioning
generator. Please do not light a cigarette near
the LPG generator.
GENERATOR SAFETY
Do not start generator with electrical devices
connected to it. Start the generator first and
after the speed of the generator stabilizes,
electrical loads can be applied to it.
When connecting electrical loads, make sure the
devices are "OFF" first before connecting them.
