WARNING: This generator produces heat when running. Temperatures near
exhaust can exceed 150°F (65°C).
·Do not touch hot surfaces. Pay attention to warning labels on the generator denoting hot
parts of the machine.
·Allow generator to cool several minutes after use before touching engine or areas which

CAUTION: Misuse of this generator can damage it or shorten its life.
·Use generator only for its intended purposes.
·Operate only on dry, level surfaces.
·Allow generator to run for several minutes before connecting electrical devices.
·Shut off and disconnect any malfunctioning devices from generator.
·Do not exceed the Wattage capacity of the generator by plugging in more electrical devices
than the unit can handle (see "PRECAUTIONS-OVERLOADING THE GENERATOR").
·Do not turn on electrical devices until after they are connected to the generator.
·Turn off all connected electrical devices before stopping the generator.
WARNING: This generator produces powerful voltage, which can result in
electrocution.
·ALWAYS ground the generator before using it (see the "Grounding the Generator" portion
of the "PREPARING THE GENERATOR FOR USE" section).
·Generator should only be plugged into electrical devices, either directly or with an extension
cord. NEVER connect to a building electrical system without a qualified electrician. Such
connections must comply with local electrical laws and codes. Failure to comply can
create a backed, which may result in serious injury or death to utility workers.
·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 in rainy or wet conditions.
·Do not touch bare wires or receptacles (outlets).
·Do not allow children or non-qualified persons to operate.
