Generator Use and Care
Make sure the power switch is in its "OFF" position and disconnect the spark plug wire before making any
adjustment, changing accessories, or storing the generator. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk
of starting the generator accidentally.
Store idle generators out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Generators are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
Maintain generators with care. Do not use damaged generator. Tag damaged generators "Do not use" until
repaired.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may
affect the generator's operation. If damaged, have the generator serviced before using. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained generators.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be
suitable for one generator may become hazardous when used on another generator.
Servicing
Maintain labels and name plates on the generator and engine. These carry important information. If
unreadable or missing, contact SteeleĀ® immediately for a replacement.
Generator service must be performed only qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by
unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
