RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
AND FIRE
(Continued)
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Accidental leakage of elec tri cal
current could charge conductive
surfaces in con tact with the
generator.
Exceeding the load capacity of
the gen er a tor by at tach ing too
many items, or items with very
high load ratings to it could result
in over heat ing of some items or
their attachment wiring re sult ing
in fire or electrical shock.
Attempting to use the unit when
it has been damaged, or when it
is not func tion ing normally could
result in fire or elec tro cu tion.
Removal of guarding could
expose elec tri cal ly charged
components and result in
electrocution.

RISK OF FIRE

WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Gasoline and gasoline vapors
can become ignited by coming
in contact with hot components
such as the muffler, engine
exhaust gases, or from an
electrical spark.
Smoking material, sparks, fires,
or other hot objects can cause
gasoline or gas o line vapors to
ignite.
Improperly stored fuel could
lead to ac ci den tal ignition. Fuel
improperly se cured could get
into the hands of chil dren or
other unqualified persons.
Materials placed against or near
the gen er a tor or op er at ing the
gen er a tor in ar eas where the
tem per a ture ex ceeds 104° F.
am bi ent (such as stor age rooms
or ga rag es) can in ter fere with its
prop er ven ti la tion fea tures caus-
ing over heat ing and pos si ble ig ni-
tion of the ma te ri als or build ings.
Place generator on low con duc-
tiv i ty surface such as a concrete
slab.
ALWAYS operate generator a
min i mum of six feet from any
con duc tive surface.
Read the load rating chart and
in struc tions in the Wattage
Cal cu la tion section. Make sure
that the sum ma tion of elec tri cal
loads for all at tach ments does
not ex ceed the load rat ing of the
generator.
Do not operate generator with
me chan i cal or elec tri cal problem.
Have unit re paired by an Au tho-
rized Ser vice Cen ter.
Do not operate generator with
pro tec tive guarding re moved.
Turn engine off and allow it to
cool be fore adding fuel to the
tank. Equip area of operation
with a fire ex tin guish er cer ti fied
to handle gasoline or fuel fires.
Add fuel to tank in well ventilated
area. Make sure there are no
sourc es of ig ni tion near the
generator.
Store fuel in a OSHA approved
con tain er de signed to hold
gasoline. Store con tain er in
se cure location to pre vent use
by oth ers.
Operate generator in a
clean, dry, well ventilated
area a minimum of four feet
from any building, object or
wall. DO NOT OP ER ATE
UNIT IN DOORS OR IN ANY
CONFINED AREA.
