WARNING: This generator produces powerful voltage, which can result
in electrocution.
•
ALWAYS ground the generator before using it (see the "Ground the Generator"
portion of the "PREPARING THE GENERATOR FOR USE" section).
•
Generator should only be plugged into electrical devices, either directly or with an
extension cord. NEVER connect to a building electrical system without a qualified
electrician. Such connections must comply with local electrical laws and codes.
Failure to comply can create a backfeed, which may result in serious injury or death
to utility workers.
•
Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in highly conductive areas such as metal
decking or steel work. GFCIs are available in-line with some extension cords.
•
Do not use in rainy or wet conditions.
•
Do not touch bare wires or receptacles (outlets).
•

or areas which heat during use.
CAUTION: Misuse of this generator can damage it or shorten its life.
• Use generator only for its intended purposes.
• Operate only on dry, level surfaces.
• Allow generator to run for several minutes before connecting electrical
devices.
• Shut off and disconnect any malfunctioning devices from generator.
• Do not exceed the Wattage capacity of the generator by plugging in more
electrical devices than the unit can handle.
• Do not turn on electrical devices until after they are connected to the
generator.
• Turn off all connected electrical devices before stopping the generator.
In addition to the above safety notices, please familiarize yourself with the safety and
