SAFETY
Safety Information
GENEX generators are designed to give safe and dependable service if operated
according to instructions. Read and understand this owner’s manual before
operating your generator. You can help prevent accidents by being familiar with
your generator’s controls, and by observing safe operating procedures.
Operator Responsibility
Know how to stop the generator quickly in case of emergency.
Understand the use of all generator controls, output receptacles, and
connections.
Be sure that anyone who operates the generator receives proper instruction.
Do not let children operate the generator without parental supervision.
Carbon Monoxide Hazards
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas.
Breathing exhaust can cause loss of consciousness and may lead to death.
If you run the generator in an area that is confined, or even partially enclosed,
the air you breathe could contain a dangerous amount of exhaust gas. To
keep exhaust gas from building up, provide adequate ventilation.
Electric Shock Hazards
The generator produces enough electric power to cause a serious shock or
electrocution if misused.
Using a generator or electrical appliance in wet conditions, such as rain or
snow, or near a pool or sprinkler system, or when your hands are wet could
result in electrocution. Keep the generator dry.
If the generator is stored outdoors, unprotected from the weather, check all
electrical components on the control panel, before each use. Moisture or ice
can cause a malfunction or short circuit in electrical components which could
result in electrocution.
Do not connecte a building’s electrical system unless an isolation switch has
been installed by a qualified electrician.
