aX WARNING: This generator may emit highly flammable and explosive gasoline
vapors, which can cause severe burns or even death. A nearby open flame can lead
to explosion even if not directly in contact with gas.
• Do not operate near open flame.
• Do not smoke near generator.
• Always operate on a firm, level surface.
• Always turn generator off before refueling. Allow generator to cool for at
least 2 minutes before removing fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve
pressure in tank.
• Do not overfill gas tank. Gas may expand during operation. Do not fill to
the top of the tank.
• Always check for spilled gas before operating.
• Empty gasoline tank before storing or transporting the generator.
• Before transporting, turn fuel valve to off and disconnect spark plug.
Ak WARNING: This generator produces powerful voltage, which can result in
electrocution.
• ALWAYS ground the generator before using it (see the "Ground 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 backfeed, 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.
aX WARNING: Never connect a generator directly to any existing electrical
building circuit. The generator can backfeed into power lines and electrocute
nearby electrical repair workers.
aX WARNING: Battery contains sulfuric acid. Battery acid is poisonous. Tilting
the generator with the battery installed can cause battery acid to spill.
• Wear protective clothing and eyewear when servicing battery.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• Do not tilt generator with battery installed.
• If battery acid gets on your skin, wash with water immediately.
• If battery acid gets in your eyes, flush with water for at least 15 minutes and
call a doctor immediately.
• If battery acid is swallowed, drink a large amount of water or milk. Then
drink milk of magnesia or vegetable oil. Call a doctor immediately
