RISK OF FIRE

WHAT COULD HAPPEN
Gasoline and gasoline vapors can
become ignited by coming in contact
with hot components such as the
muffler, engine exhaust gases, or from
an electrical spark.
Cigarettes, sparks, fires, or other hot
objects can cause gasoline or gasoline
vapors to ignite.
Improperly stored fuel could lead to ac-
cidental ignition. Fuel improperly secured
could get into the hands of children or
other unqualified persons.
Materials placed against or near the gen-
erator or operating the generator in ar-
eas where the temperature exceeds 104°
F. ambient can interfere with its proper
ventilation features causing overheating
and possible ignition of the materials.
Engine speed has been factory set to
provide safe operation. Tampering with the
engine speed adjustment could result in
overheating of attachments and could
cause a fire.
Spilled fuel and its vapors can become
ignited from hot surfaces or sparks.

HOW TO PREVENT IT
Turn engine off and allow it to cool
before adding fuel to the tank. Equip
area of operation with a fire extin-
guisher certified to handle gasoline
or fuel fires.
Add fuel to tank in well ventilated area.
Make sure there are no sources of
ignition near the generator.
Store fuel in a container designed to
hold gasoline. Store container in se-
cure location to prevent use by oth-
ers.
Operate generator in a clean, dry, well
ventilated area a minimum of four feet
from any objects or wall. DO NOT
OPERATE UNIT INDOORS OR IN
ANY CONFINED AREA.
Never attempt to "speedup" the en-
gine to obtain more performance.
Both the output voltage and frequency
will be thrown out of standard by this
practice, endangering attachments
and the user.
Use care in filling the tank to avoid
spilling fuel. Make sure fuel cap is
secured tightly and check engine
for fuel leaks before starting engine.
Move generator away from refueling
area or any spillage before starting
engine. Allow for fuel expansion.
Keep maximum fuel level ¼ inch
below the tip of the fuel tank. Never
refuel with the engine running.
