Powerful Voltage: This generator produces powerful voltage, which can result in electrocution.
• ALWAYS ground this generator before using it. (See “Ground the Generator” section in this manual).
• Only electrical devices should be plugged into this generator, either directly or with an extension cord. NEVER
connect a building electrical system to this generator without a qualified electrician. Doing so voids your warranty.
Such connections must isolate generator power from utility power and comply with local electrical laws and codes.
Failure to comply can create a back feed into utility lines creating an electrocution hazard, which may result in
serious injury or death to utility workers. Such a back feed may cause this generator to explode, burn and create
fires when utility power is restored.
• Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in highly conductive areas such as metal decking or steel work.
GFCIs are available in-line with some extension cords.
• Do not use this generator in wet conditions (rain, snow, active sprinkler system, wet hands, etc.). Always keep
this generator dry and operate it with dry hands.
• Do not allow children or non-qualified persons to operate this generator.
High Temperatures: This generator produces heat when in operation. Temperatures near the exhaust can exceed 150 Degrees
Fahrenheit (65 Degrees Celsius).
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Observe all warning placards on this generator denoting hot surfaces.
• Allow this generator to cool for several minutes after use before touching the engine, muffler or other areas that
are hot during operation and before storing indoors.
• Hot exhaust may ignite some materials. Keep flammable materials away from this generator.
• Keep at least several feet of clearance on all sides of this generator during operation. Do not enclose this
generator in any structure.
