General Precautions (cont'd)
Generator Use and Care
• Make sure the power switch is in its "STOP" position and disconnect the spark plug wire before
making any adjustments, changing any accessories, or storing the generator. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the generator accidentally.
• Store idle generators out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Generators are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain generators with care. Do not use a damaged generator. Tag damaged generators
"DO NOT USE" until repaired.
• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, broken parts, and any other condition that
may affect the generator's operation. If damaged, have the generator serviced before using.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained generators.
• Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories
that may be suitable for one generator may become hazardous when used on another.
Servicing
• Maintain labels and name plates on the generator and engine. These carry important
information. If unreadable or missing, contact SYCAMORE SCS immediately for a replacement.
• Generator servicing must be performed by qualified repair personnel only. Service or
maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
• When servicing a generator, use only identical replacement parts and follow all appropriate
instructions in this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance
instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.
