SAFETY
• Do not enclose the generator or cover it. The generator may
become overheated if it is enclosed.
• If generator has been covered to protect it from the weather during
non use, be sure to remove it and keep it well away from the area
during generator use.
• Operate the generator on a level surface. It is not necessary to
prepare a special foundation for the generator. However, the
generator will vibrate on an irregular surface, so choose a level
place.
• If the generator is tilted or moved during operation, fuel may spill
and/or the generator may tip over, causing a hazardous situation.
Proper lubrication cannot be expected if the generator is operated
on a steep incline or slope. In such a case, piston seizure may
occur even if the oil is above the upper level.
• Pay attention to the wiring or extension cords from the generator
to the connected device. If the wire is under the generator or in
contact with vibrating part, it may break and possibly cause a re,
generator burnout, or electric shock hazard. Replace damaged or
worn cords immediately.
• Do not operate in rain, in wet or damp conditions, or with wet
hands. The operator may suer severe electric shock if the
generator is wet due to rain or snow. If wet, wipe and dry it well
before starting. Do not pour water directly over the generator, nor
wash it with water.
• Be extremely careful that all necessary electrical grounding
procedures are followed during each and every use. Failure to do
so can be fatal.
• DO NOT smoke while charging a battery. The battery emits
ammable hydrogen gas, which can explode if exposed to electric
arcing or open ame. Keep the area well ventilated and keep open
ames / sparks away when charging a battery.
• The engine becomes extremely hot during and for some time after
operation. Keep combustible materials well away from generator
area. Be very careful not to touch any parts of the hot engine
