INSTALLING THE WHEELS

See Figure 6.
Wheels are provided to assist in moving the generator to the
desired location and should be installed on the side opposite
the recoil starter.
 Locate the following items:
2 axle bolts
4 washers (1/2 in.)
2 hitch pins (1/2 in.)
2 wheels

OPERATION

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.
DANGER:
Failure to properly ground generator can result
in electrocution, especially if the generator is
equipped with a wheel kit. National Electric Code
requires generator to be properly grounded to an
approved earth ground. Call an electrician for local
grounding requirements.
 Raise the handle end of the generator high enough to
gain access to the frame bottom; securely position props
underneath to support.
 Insert the axle bolt through the center of the wheel.
 Place a washer on an axle bolt, then slide the axle bolt
through the bracket on the frame and slide a washer on
the bolt.
 Install the hitch pin.
 Repeat the process on the other side to install second
wheel.
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with this product to make
you careless. Remember that a careless fraction
of a second is sufficient to inflict serious injury.
WARNING:
Do not use any attachments or accessories not
recommended by the manufacturer of this product.
The use of attachments or accessories not
recommended can result in serious personal injury.
