READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL WARNINGS BEFORE
HAZARD
Operation of generator in rain,
wet, icy, or flooded conditions.
Use of worn, damaged, undersized
or ungrounded extension cords.
Placing generator on or against
highly conductive surface, such as
a steel walkway or metal roof.
Improper connection of items to
generator.
Operation of unit when damaged,
or with guards or panels removed.
ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE GENERATOR.
RISK OF ELECTROCUTION AND FIRE (cont'd)
WHAT COULD HAPPEN
Water is an excellent conductor of
electricity! Water which comes in
contact with electrically charged
components can transmit electricity to
the frame and other surfaces, resulting
in electrical shock to anyone contacting
them.
Contact with worn or damaged exten-
sion cords could result in electrocu-
tion.
Use of undersize extension cords
could result in overheating of the wires
or attached items, resulting in fire.
Use of ungrounded cordsets could
prevent operation of circuit breakers
and result in electrical shock.
Accidental leakage of electrical current
could charge conductive surfaces in
contact with the generator.
Exceeding the load capacity of the
generator by attaching too many
items, or items with very high load
ratings to it could result in overheating
of some items or their attachment
wiring resulting in fire or electrical
shock.
Attempting to use the unit when it has
been damaged, or when it is not
functioning normally could result in fire
or electrocution.
Removal of guarding could expose
electrically charged components and
result in electrocution.

HOW TO PREVENT IT
Operate generator in a clean, dry,
well ventilated area. Make sure
hands are dry before touching unit.
Inspect extension cords before use
and replace with new cord if
required.
Use proper size (wire gauge)
cordset for application see chart in
the Assembly section of this
manual.
Always use a cordset having a
grounding wire with an appropriate
grounding plug. DO NOT use an
ungrounded plug.
Place generator on low conductivity
surface such as a concrete slab.
ALWAYS operate generator a
minimum of six feet from any
conductive surface.
Read the load rating chart and
instructions in the Wattage Calcula-
tion section. Make sure that the
summation of electrical loads for all
attachments does not exceed the
load rating of the generator.
Do not operate generator with
mechanical or electrical problem.
Have unit repaired by an Autho-
rized Service Center.
Do not operate generator with
protective guarding removed.
