TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE
Transportation
Transporting the Generator
A hot engine or exhaust system can cause severe burns and ignite
flammable material. Ensure adequate time for cooling before storage or
transportation.
When operating or transporting the generator, be sure it is kept upright. If
the generator tilts, fuel may leak. Be sure the fuel tank cap is tight during
transportation.
Do not operate the generator while transporting or while it is in a vehicle.
Do not transport the generator with fuel in the fuel tank.
IMPORTANT: Take care not to drop or strike the generator when
transporting. Do not place heavy objects on the generator.
1. If the generator has been used, allow it to cool for at least 15
minutes before loading it on the transport vehicle.
2. Drain the fuel prior to transportation. See page 59.
3. Position the engine switch (A)
and the fuel tank vent lever (B) to
OFF (see page 18), and keep
generator level to reduce
possibility of fuel leakage.
