CONNECTING/DISCONNECTING BATTERY
See Figure 7.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electrocution or explosion, do not short
circuit the battery terminals or charge in a sealed container.
Keep sparks and flame away.
WARNING:
Keep metal objects away from the battery terminals. Metal
objects can make a connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together can cause sparks,
burns, or a fire.
DANGER:
Carbon Monoxide. Using a generator indoors CAN KILL
YOU IN MINUTES.
Generator exhaust contains high levels of carbon monoxide
(CO), a poisonous gas you cannot see or smell. If you can
smell the generator exhaust, you are breathing CO. But even
if you cannot smell the exhaust, you could be breathing CO.
Never use a generator inside homes, garages,
crawlspaces, or other partly enclosed areas. Deadly
levels of carbon monoxide can build up in these areas.
Using a fan or opening windows and doors does NOT
supply enough fresh air.
ONLY use a generator outdoors and far away from open
windows, doors, and vents. These openings can pull in
generator exhaust.
Even when you use a generator correctly, CO may leak
into the home. ALWAYS use a battery-powered or battery-
backup CO alarm in the home.
If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the generator has
been running, move to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor.
You could have carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING:
If this generator will be used only with cord and plug-
connected equipment, National Electric Code does not
require that the unit be grounded. However, other methods
of using the generator may require grounding to reduce the
risk of shock or electrocution. Consult a qualified electrician,
electrical inspector, or local agency having jurisdiction for
local codes or ordinances to find out if grounding is needed
in your situation before using the generator.
ASSEMBLY
The battery cables must be connected before the electric start
feature of the generator can be operated.
To connect battery cables:
Connect the red wire to the positive (+) terminal first, then
connect the black wire to the negative (-) terminal. Make
sure all connections are tight.
NOTE: Be careful not to short across the terminals when
installing. Shorting the terminals together can cause sparks,
damage to the battery or generator, or even burns or
explosions.
Cover the terminals with the rubber covers.
When removing the battery for replacement: disconnect the
negative (black) post, then the positive (red) post, being careful
not to short across the terminals. Always abide by the safety
warnings provided with the battery. Remove the battery and
dispose of according to local and state regulations.
