Carbon monoxide hazards
• WARNING! Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas that can build up to
dangerous levels in closed areas. Breathing carbon monoxide can cause unconsciousness or
death.
• To avoid carbon monoxide poisoning, do not operate indoors or in a confined space, such as
home, garage, tent, camper van, mobile home, caravan, boat... etc.
Electric shock hazards
• WARNING! The generators produce a high enough voltage which could result in shock or
electrocution causing serious injury or death.
• WARNING! The generator must be properly grounded to prevent electrocution.
• Using the generator in wet conditions (such as rain or snow, or near a pool or sprinkler
system, or when your hands are wet) could result in electrocution. Keep the generator dry.
• If the generator is stored outdoors, unprotected from the weather, check all electrical
components on the control panel, before each use. Moisture or ice may lead to malfunction
or short circuit in electrical components which could result in electrocution.
• Do not connect to a building's electrical system unless an isolation switch has been instaled
by a qualified electrician.
• Never connect different generator models.
Fire and burn hazards
• WARNING! The engine exhaust can get hot enough to ignite materials. Always ensure the
surrounding area is free from any material that could burn or be damaged by heat.
• WARNING! The muffler becomes very hot during operation and remains hot for a while
after stopping the engine. Be careful to touch the muffler while it is hot. Let the engine cool
before storing the generator indoors.
• Maintain at least 1 metre (or 3 feets) of clearance from any building structures or other
equipment during operation. Do not enclose the generator in any structure.
• Gasoline is extremely flammable, and gasoline vapour can explode. Do not smoke near fuel
or generator.
• Always store gasoline in an approved and labelled container.
• Refuel only outdoors in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped.
• Fuel vapours are extremely flammable and may ignite after the engine has started. Never
start the engine if there is spilled fuel. Any spillage must be wiped clean and allowed to dry
before attempting to start the engine.
Battery (for PRGE5501 only)
• The battery presents a risk if they become damaged by the possible leaking of electrolyte,
which is strongly acidic and can cause serious burn injury.
• Risk of explosion! Do not short circuit the battery terminals.
