NOTICE If required, remove wheel kit to fit carton over
generator as shown.
3. Cut appropriate slots to access receptacles of unit.
4. Face exposed end away from wind and elements.
5. Locate generator as described in the section Generator
Location. Keep exhaust gas from entering a confined
area through windows, doors, ventilation intakes or
other openings.
WARNING Running engine gives off carbon
monoxide, an odorless, colorless, poison gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause headache,
fatigue, dizziness, vomiting, confusion, seizures,
nausea, fainting or death.
• Operate generator ONLY outdoors.
• Install a battery operated carbon monoxide alarm near the
bedrooms.
• Keep exhaust gas from entering a confined area through
windows, doors, ventilation intakes, or other openings.
• DO NOT start or run engine indoors or in an enclosed area,
(even if windows and doors are open), including the generator
compartment of a recreational vehicle (RV).
6. Start generator as described in the section Starting the
Engine, then place carton over generator. Keep at least
5 ft. (1.5 m) clearance on all sides of generator
including overhead with shelter in place.
WARNING Contact with muffler area can result in
serious burns.
Exhaust heat/gases can ignite
combustibles, structures or damage
fuel tank causing a fire.
• DO NOT touch hot parts and AVOID hot exhaust gases.
• Allow equipment to cool before touching.
• Keep at least 5 feet (152 cm) of clearance on all sides of
generator including overhead.
• Remove shelter when temperatures are above 40°F [4°C].
7. Remove shelter when temperatures are above 40°F
[4°C].
8. Turn engine OFF and let cool two (2) minutes before
refueling. Let any spilled fuel evaporate before starting
engine.
Building a Cold Weather Shelter
1. Using non combustible material with a fire rating of at
least one hour, build a shelter that will enclose three
sides and the top of the generator. Make sure muffler
side of generator is exposed.
NOTICE Contact your local building material supplier for
non combustible materials with a fire rating of at least one
hour.
NOTICE Be sure shelter can easily be repositioned for
change in wind direction.
2. DO NOT enclose generator any more than shown.
Shelter should hold enough heat created by the
generator to prevent icing problem.
NOTICE If a wheel kit is installed on the generator, enlarge
shelter accordingly.
3. Follow steps 3 through 8 as described previously in
Creating a Temporary Cold Weather Shelter.
