doors, windows, and occupied spaces. Always point exhaust away from occupied structures. Never run the generator
in enclosed areas (e.g. not in a house or garage).
DO NOT tamper with, adjust, or modify the carbon monoxide (CO) sensor module on your generator.
Engine Lubricant Warning
You must add lubricant before first operating the generator. Always check the lubricant level before
each operation. The lubricant level should always register between the hatched areas on the dip-
stick. The unit is equipped with a sensor which will automatically shut off the engine if the lubricant
level falls below a safe limit.
Fuel Cap Warning
Never remove fuel cap when unit is running. Shut off engine and allow the unit to cool at least
five minutes. Remove cap slowly to release any pressure built up in the fuel system and to
avoid the heat from the muffler igniting fuel vapors.
Grounding Warning
This generator does not include a ground rod or copper wire. Call a qualified electrician for local
grounding requirements.
Hot Surface Warning
Do not touch the muffler or aluminum cyl-
inder of the engine. They are very HOT and
will cause severe burns. Don't put body
parts or any flammable or combustible
materials in the direct path of the exhaust.
Spark Arrestor
Operation of this equipment may create sparks that can start fires around dry vegetation. A spark
arrestor may be required. The operator should contact local fire agencies for laws or regulations
relating to fire prevention requirements.
Storage Notice
Always store the generator standing on its feet. Never store the unit on its side or in a vertical
position.
Clearance Warning
While operating and storing, keep at least 3 feet (91.4 cm) of clearance on all sides of this product,
including overhead. Allow a minimum of 30 minutes of "cool down" time before storage. Heat created
by muffler and exhaust gases could be hot enough to cause serious burns and/or ignite combustible
objects.
