SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains important instructions for the WEN generator that should be followed during installation and
maintenance of the generator.
Generators vibrate in normal use. During and after the use of the generator, inspect both the generator as well as
extension and power supply cords for damage resulting from vibration. Have damaged items repaired or replaced
as necessary. Do not use plugs or cords that show signs of damage such as broken or cracked insulation.
For power outages, permanently installed stationary generators are better suited for providing backup power to
the home. Even a properly connected portable generator can become overloaded. This may result in overheating
or stressing of the components, possibly leading to a generator failure..
WARNING! Do not let comfort or familiarity with the product replace strict adherence to product safety rules.
Failure to follow the safety instructions may result in serious personal injury.

all conductors excluding the equipment grounding conductor. The frame of the generator shall be connected to
