Gasoline is a highly ammable and explosive liquid. Refuel in a well
ventilated area with the engine stopped.
When refueling the generator, keep it away from cigarettes, open ames,
smoke and/or sparks.
Use of gasoline with an ethanol content greater than 10% can damage
the engine and fuel system and will void the manufacturer’s warranty.
Place the generator at least 10 feet away from buildings or other
equipment during operation.
Run the generator on a level surface. Tilting the generator may result in
fuel spills.
Do not touch the spark plug while the engine is operating or shortly after
the engine has been shut down.

abnormally. Then disconnect the device and investigate the problem.
Keep away from other electric cables or wires.
To prolong engine life, make sure that the combined load of your
devices does not exceed the rated running wattage of the generator.
When an extension cable is required, be sure to use a tough rubber
sheathed exible cable (according to IEC245 or equivalent standards).
The maximum length of the extension cable: 196 feet (60 meters) for
cable of 15.5 gauge (1.5mm2); 328 feet (100 meters) for cable of 13.25
gauge (2.5mm2).
