IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
DO NOT smoke, or allow sparks, ames, or other sources of ignition around the equipment, especially
when refuelling.
Before use, check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition
that may affect the equipment’s operation. If damaged, have the equipment serviced before using. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained equipment.
Use the correct equipment for the application. DO NOT modify the equipment and do not use the equipment
for a purpose for which it is not intended.
Before service, maintenance, or cleaning: A. Turn the generator switch to its “OFF” position. B. Allow the
generator to completely cool. C. Then, remove the spark plug cap from the spark plug.
Keep all safety guards in place and in proper working order. Safety guards include mufer, air cleaner,
mechanical guards, and heat shields, among other guards.
DO NOT alter or adjust any part of the equipment or its generator that is sealed by the manufacturer or
distributor. Only a qualied service technician may adjust parts that may increase or decrease governed
generator speed.
Have the equipment serviced by a qualied repair person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the equipment is maintained. DO NOT attempt any service or maintenance
procedures not explained in this manual or any procedures that you are uncertain about your ability to
perform safely or correctly.
DO NOT ll fuel tank to the top. Leave a little room for the fuel to expand as needed.
Wipe up any spilled fuel and allow excess to evaporate before starting generator. To prevent FIRE, do not
start the generator while the smell of fuel hangs in the air.
CAUTION: This generator is not intended to power sensitive electronic equipment* without the addition
of an appropriate line conditioner and surge protector (both not included). Sensitive electronic equipment
should be operated on approved inverter type generators or pure sine wave generators.
If the plugged in product operates abnormally or unusually slow, immediately stop using the generator
as a power source. Always read and adhere to the instruction manual of the product to be powered, to
make sure that it can be safely and efciently powered by a portable generator.
NOTE: When using a generator to provide home standby electricity, a transfer switch (sold separately) is
needed to prevent back feeding power into the utility line.
Connections for standby power to a building electrical system must be made by a qualied electrician. The
connection must isolate the generator power from utility power, and must comply with all applicable laws
and electrical codes.
WARNING: Improper connections to a building electrical system can allow electrical current from the
generator to backfeed into the utility lines. Such backfeed may electrocute utility company workers or
others who contact the lines during a power outage, and the generator may explode, burn, or cause
res when utility power is restored. Consult the utility company or a qualied electrician.
