EXTENSION CORDS

Asphyxiation hazard. Extension cords running directly
into the home increase the risk of carbon monoxide
poisoning through any openings. If an extension cord
running directly into your home is used to power indoor
items, there is a risk of carbon monoxide poisoning to
people inside the home. Always use battery-powered
carbon monoxide detector (s) that meet current UL 2034
safety standards when running the generator. Regularly
check the detector (s) battery.
Asphyxiation hazard. When operating the generator with
extension cords, make sure the generator is located in
an open, outdoor area, far away from occupied spaces
with exhaust pointed away.
Fire and electrocution hazard. Never use worn or
damaged extension cords. Damaged or overloaded
extension cords could overheat, arc, and burn resulting
in death or serious injury.
Before connecting an AC appliance or power cord to the
generator:
• Use grounded 3-prong extension cords, tools, and
appliances, or double-insulated tools and appliances.
• Make sure the tool or appliance is in good working
order. Faulty appliances or power cords can create a
potential for electric shock.

ST SWITCH

The generator is compatible with the ST Switch, purchased
separately. When utility power is on it will provide power (up
to 120V @ 20A) to the appliances plugged into the 5-20R
receptacle on the ST Switch. When utility power is lost the
ST Switch automatically transfers input power from utility
to generator power. When utility power is restored, the
ST Switch transfers input power back to utility. Visit www.
