OPERATION
DANGER
high levels of carbon monoxide (CO), an invisible,
odorless, and extremely poisonous gas. If you
smell exhaust fumes, you are breathing carbon
monoxide. But, even if you do not smell exhaust
fumes you may be inhaling CO.
ONLY operate generators outside, in a well-
ventilated
area.
indoors, doing so CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES.
• Correct Use- ONLY use generators outside and
downwind, far away from windows, doors and vents.
ALWAYS direct exhaust away from occupied spaces.
ALWAYS install battery-powered carbon monoxide
detectors or plug-in carbon monoxide detectors with
battery back-up in living areas. See Figure 1.
• Incorrect Use- NEVER use a generator in your
home, garage, basement, attic, crawl space or any
other fully or partially enclosed area. Areas such as
these can allow dangerous levels of carbon monoxide
to accumulate. An open door or a running fan WILL
NOT provide adequate ventilation. See Figure 2.
If you start feeling dizzy, weak, or sick while using
the generator, move to fresh air IMMEDIATELY.
Contact a doctor. You may be experiencing carbon
monoxide poisoning.

generator in a well-ventilated area. DO NOT place
the generator near vents or intakes where exhaust
fumes could be drawn into occupied or confined
spaces. Carefully consider wind and air currents
when positioning the generator.
WARNING
the generator in a location that is wet or damp. Never
expose the generator to rain, snow, water spray, or
standing water while in use. Protect the generator
from all hazardous weather conditions. Moisture or
ice can cause a short circuit or other malfunction in
the electrical circuit. Using a generator or electrical
appliance in wet conditions, such as rain or snow, or
near a pool or sprinkler system, or when your hands
are wet, could result in electrocution.
WARNING
generator on a solid, level surface. Operating the
generator on a surface with loose material such
as sand or grass clippings can cause debris to be
ingested by the generator that could block cooling
vents or the air intake system. Allow the generator
to cool for 30 minutes before transport or storage.
l Read and understand all safety information before
starting the generator (see pages 4 - 12).
l NEVER use a generator in your home, garage,
basement, attic, crawl space or any other fully or
partially enclosed area. Areas such as these can allow
dangerous levels of carbon monoxide to accumulate.
Carbon monoxide (CO), an invisible, odorless, and
extremely poisonous gas CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES.
l DO NOT operate the generator in the back of a SUV,
camper, trailer, truck bed (regular, flat, or otherwise),
under stairs, next to walls or buildings, or in any other
location that will not allow for adequate cooling of the
generator and/or the muffler. Operating the generator
with
in enclosed or partially enclosed areas will allow
dangerous levels of CO to accumulate.
l DO NOT contain generators during operation.
l Only use OUTSIDE and far away from windows, doors,
and vents as recommended by the US Department
of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention. Your specific home and/or wind
conditions may require additional distance.
l Do not operate the generator on an incline. The unit
should always be placed on a flat stable surface.
l The generator should be on a flat, level surface at all
times (even while not in operation).
l The generator must have at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) of
clearance from all combustible material.
