CO Shield will detect the accumulation of carbon monoxide from
other fuel burning sources such as engine powered tools, or
propane heaters used in the area of operation. If another generator
is used and the exhaust is pointed at a CO Shield equipped
generator, the CO Shield may initiate a shutoff due to rising carbon
monoxide levels. This is not a fault. Hazardous carbon monoxide
has been detected. You must take action to move and direct the
equipment to better dissipate carbon monoxide far away from
people or buildings.
WARNING
A
Tampering with the CO Shield® system could result in a
hazardous condition and will void your warranty.
Removing the CO Shield module will not allow the generator to
start.
Generator Location
NEVER operate the generator inside any building, garage,
basement, crawlspace, shed, enclosure or compartment,
including a generator compartment of a recreational vehicle.
NEVER operate or start the generator in the back of an
SUV, camper, trailer, truck bed (regular sides, flat or other
configuration), under staircases, stairwells, next to walls
or buildings or in any other location that will not allow for
adequate cooling of the generator or for the proper exit of the
exhaust flow from the muffler system.
DO NOT operate or store the generator in wet weather
conditions such as rain or snow. Using a generator in wet
conditions could result in serious injury or death due to
electrocution.
In some state's generators may be required to be registered
with the local utility company when used at construction sites
and may be subject to additional rules and regulations, consult
your local municipal authority.
Generators should always be operated on a flat, level surface
at all times (even when not in operation).
Generators must have a minimum of 5 feet (1.5 m) of
clearance from all combustible material.
Generators must also have a minimum of 3 feet (91.4 cm)
of air flow clearance on all sides to allow for adequate
performance cooling, maintenance and servicing.
Always place the generator in a well-ventilated area. NEVER
place the generator near air intake vents or where exhaust
fumes could be drawn into occupied or confined spaces.
Always carefully consider wind and air currents when
positioning generator.
Always allow generators to properly cool before transport or
for storage purposes.
Failure to follow proper safety precautions may result in
personal injury, damage to the generator and void the
manufacturer's warranty.
During operation the muffler and exhaust fumes will become
hot. If adequate cooling and breathing space are not supplied,
or if the generator is blocked or enclosed, temperatures can
become extremely heated and may lead to fire.
Do Not modify or install any extensions or extraction to the
exhaust/muffler, by doing so will void any warranty.
