 WARNING
Do not expose to rain or use in damp locations.
Keep all objects a minimum of 5 feet (1.5m) away from the
generator at all times. Heat from the muffler surface and
exhaust gas stream can ignite combustible materials.
 WARNING
If you must operate in rain or damp locations, DO NOT operate
without proper protection of the electrical components.
Use of a safety canopy that is fire retardant and will provide proper
air ventilation for the engine exhaust gas stream may be used.

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.
– 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.
Starting the Engine: Gasoline
1. Make certain the generator is on a flat, level surface.
2. Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator. Never start
or stop the generator with electrical devices plugged in or
turned on.
3. Turn the fuel vent lever to the “ON” position.
4. Turn EZ Start dial clockwise to the full “CHOKE” position.
5. Pull the recoil cord slowly until resistance is felt and then pull
rapidly.
6. As the engine warms up, turn the EZ Start dial to the gasoline
“RUN” position.

NOTICE
For gasoline restarts with hot engine in hot ambient
temperature >86°F (30°C): Rotate the EZ Start dial to
the “CHOKE” position for only one pull of the recoil cord. If
generator does not start after first pull, rotate the dial to the
“RUN” position for the next three pulls. Too much choke leads
to spark plug fouling and engine flooding. This will cause the
engine not to start.
