Safety First
While safety is built into every
generator, imprudent operation,
negligent maintenance or carelessness
can contribute to present serious
hazards to life and injury.
Keep a fire extinguisher nearby. Know
its proper use. Consult your local fire
department for the correct
extinguisher type. Extinguishers rated
ABC by the NFPA are appropriate for
most applications. Annually service
the extinguishers and perform service
as required.
Be sure the generator is well
ventilated. Do not operate this
generator in an enclosed compartment.
All warranties are voided if operated in
an enclosed compartment.
Provide adequate ventilation for the
prime mover engine on the tractor.
The output power voltage present
in this equipment can cause a fatal
electric shock. This equipment
must only be operated by a responsible
adult.
Do not allow anyone to operate the
generator without proper instructions.
Guard against electric shock.
Avoid direct contact with live
terminals or receptacles.
Do not operate this unit in rain
or snow.
Use only 120 volt 3-wire grounded
