NOTICE:
starting unit.
IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits
from forming in fuel system parts such as the carburetor,
fuel hose or tank during storage. Alcohol-blended fuels
(called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract mois-
ture, which leads to separation and formation of acids
during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of
an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems,
the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30
days or longer. See the
engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank as
permanent damage may occur.

IMPORTANT: Do not overload the generator. Also, do
not overload individual panel receptacles. These outlets
are protected against overload with push-to-reset type
circuit breakers. If amperage rating of any circuit breaker
is exceeded, that breaker opens and electrical output to
that receptacle is lost. Read "Don't Overload the Genera-
tor" carefully.
