HOW TO PREVENT IT
Operate generator in a clean, dry,
well ventilated area. Make sure
hands are dry before touching
unit.
Inspect extension cords before
use and replace with new cord if
required.
Use proper size (wire gauge)
cordset for application see chart
in the Assembly section of this
manual.
Always use a cordset having a
grounding wire with an
appropriate grounding plug. DO
NOT use an ungrounded plug.
Place generator on low conduc-
tivity surface such as a concrete
slab.
ALWAYS operate generator a
minimum of six feet from any
conductive surface.
Read the load rating chart and
instructions in the Wattage Cal-
culation section. Make sure that
the summation of electrical
loads for all attachments does
not exceed the load rating of the
generator.
Do not operate generator with
mechanical or electrical
problem. Have unit repaired by
an Authorized Service Center.
Do not operate generator with
protective guarding removed.
