Generator Location

WARNING
Make sure you review each warning in order to
prevent fire hazard.
Using a generator indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES. Generator exhaust
contains carbon monoxide. This is a poison you cannot see or smell.
NEVER use inside a home or garage,
EVEN IF doors and windows are open.
Avoid other generator hazards. READ MANUAL BEFORE USE.
DANGER
Never use generator in wet or damp
locations. Never expose generator to
rain, snow, water spray or standing
water while in use. Protect generator
from all hazardous weather conditions.
Moisture, or ice can cause a short
circuit or other malfunction in the
electric circuit. Water contact with a
power source if not avoided, will result
in death or serious injury.
• Keep area clear of inflammables or other
hazardous materials.
• Select a site that is dry, well ventilated and
protected from the weather.
• Keep exhaust pipe clear of foreign objects.
• Keep generator away from open flame.
• Keep generator on a stable and level surface.
• Do not block generator air vents with paper or
other material.

Surge Protection

Electronic devices, including computers and many
programmable appliances use components that are
designed to operate within a narrow voltage range
and may be affected by momentary voltage
fluctuations. While there is no way to prevent voltage
fluctuations, you can take steps to protect sensitive
electronic equipment.
Only use OUTSIDE and far away
from windows, doors and vents.

Install UL1449, CSA-listed, plug-in surge
suppressors on the outlets feeding your sensitive
equipment.
Surge suppressors come in single- or multi-outlet
styles. They're designed to protect against virtually
all short-duration voltage fluctuations.
