and heat shields, among other guards.
3. Make sure the Engine/Battery Switch is in its
“STOP” position before moving the Generator
and before performing any service, maintenance,
or cleaning procedures on the unit.
4. Keep all electrical equipment clean and dry.
Replace any wiring where the insulation is
cracked, cut, abraded, or otherwise degraded.
Replace terminals that are worn, discolored, or
corroded. Keep terminals clean and tight.
5. Do not alter or adjust any part of the
equipment or its engine that is sealed by the

service technician may adjust parts that may
increase or decrease governed engine speed.
6. Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles,
heavy-duty work gloves, and
dust mask/respirator during service.
7. Maintain labels and nameplates on the equipment.
These carry important information.
If unreadable or missing, contact
Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.
8. Have the equipment serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the equipment
is maintained. Do not attempt any service or
maintenance procedures not explained in this
manual or any procedures that you are uncertain
about your ability to perform safely or correctly.
9. Store equipment out of the reach of children.
10. Follow scheduled engine and
equipment maintenance.
GFCI Protection:
This Generator is equipped with two 3-Prong,
duplex 120 V ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) receptacles. These outlets provide
additional protection from the risk of electric
shock. Should replacement of the receptacles
become necessary, use only identical replacement
parts that include GFCI protection.
Refueling:
1. Turn off the generator before refilling
the fuel tank. Do not refill the fuel tank
while the engine is running or hot.
2. Do not smoke, or allow sparks, flames,
or other sources of ignition around the
equipment, especially when refueling.
3. TO PREVENT FUEL LEAKAGE AND FIRE
HAZARD, Do Not fill fuel tank to the top.
Leave a little room for the fuel to expand as needed.
4. Refuel in a well-ventilated area only.
5. Wipe up any spilled fuel and allow excess
to evaporate before starting engine.
To prevent FIRE, do not start the engine
while the smell of fuel hangs in the air.
6. Do not connect LPG / Propane or NG fuel
sources to the Generator while operating with
gasoline. Shut down Generator and allow to
cool before connecting alternate fuel type.
