15. Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry, or anything
that may be caught in the starter or other rotating
parts.
16. Unit must reach operating speed before electrical
loads are connected. Disconnect loads before
turning off engine.
17. To prevent surging that may possibly damage
equipment, do not allow engine to run out of
fuel when electrical loads are applied.
18. When powering solid state equipment, a
Power Line Conditioner should be used to
avoid possible damage to equipment. (See
Caution Statement on this page.)
19. Do not stick anything through ventilating slots,
even when the generator is not operating. This
can damage the generator or cause personal
injury.
20. Before transporting the generator in a vehicle,
drain all fuel to prevent leakage that may occur.
21. Use proper lifting techniques when transporting
the generator from site to site. Improper lifting
techniques may result in personal injury.
22. To avoid burns, do not touch engine muffler or
other engine or generator surfaces which became
hot during operation.
SPARK ARRESTING MUFFLER
THIS PRODUCT IS NOT EQUIPPED WITH A SPARK
ARRESTING MUFFLER. If the product will be used around
flammable materials, such as agricultural crops, forests, brush,
grass, or other similar items, then an approved spark arrester
should be installed and is legally required in the State of
California. The California statutes requiring a spark arrester
are Sections 13005(b), 4442 and 4443. Spark Arresters are
also required on some U.S. Forest Service land and may also

DETERMINING TOTAL WATTAGE

In order to prevent overloading and possible damage to
your generator it is necessary to know the total wattage of the
connected load. To determine which tools and/or appliances
your generator will run follow these steps:
1.
Determine if you want to run one item or multiple items
simultaneously.
2.
Check wattage requirements for the items
you will be running by referring to the load's nameplate or
by calculating it (multiply amps x volts = watts).
3.
Total the watts for each item. If the nameplate
only gives volts and amps, multiply volts x amps = watts.
1 KW = 1,000 watts.
4.
Motorized appliances or tools require more than their rated
wattage for start up.
NOTE: Allow 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 times the listed wattage for
starting equipment powered by electric motors.
5.
The generator's rated watts should match or exceed the
total number of watts required for the
equipment you want to run.
6.
Always connect the heaviest load to the generator first,
then add other items one at a time.

OPERATING VOLTAGE

CAUTION: Operating voltage and frequency
requirement of all electronic equipment
should be checked prior to plugging them into
this generator. Damage may result if the
equipment is not designed to operate within a
+/- 10% voltage variation, and +/- 3 hz
frequency variation from the generator name
plate ratings. To avoid damage, always have
an additional load plugged into the generator
if solid state equipment (such as a television
set) is used. A power line conditioner may
also be necessary for some solid state
applications.
Typical example of solid state equipment include:
Garage door openers
Kitchen appliances with digital displays
Televisions
Stereos
Personal computers
Quartz clocks
Copy machines
Telephone equipment
