IMPORTANT PRODUCT SAFETY

Please review these important safety warnings:

WARNING:

ALWAYS shut generator off before any fueling or maintenance procedures.

WARNING:

NEVER position the GenTent refueling door on the same side of the generator as the

exhaust muffler. Spilled gasoline can result in fire. Always use a funnel while refueling.

WARNING:

NEVER block or cover the generator exhaust muffler in any way. If the exhaust blows

directly on the GenTent canopy, it is installed incorrectly.

WARNING

NEVER install the Kevlar® Ratchet Strap over, or direct line of, the generator exhaust

muffler.

WARNING

NEVER use the GenTent on a generator in a moving vehicle or trailer.

CAUTION:

DO NOT pull on the GenTent top cap open corners.

CAUTION:

ALWAYS grasp frame rods firmly during installation to avoid the whipping motion that

can occur if a bent frame rod is mistakenly released.

CAUTION:

AVOID using your portable generator in forecast winds above 70mph.

CAUTION:

AVOID over tightening ratchet. The ratchet buckle and strap are capable of tremendous

forces that can snap the molded sections and mar the generator case if over tightened.

IMPORTANT OPERATING NOTES

Please review these important operating notes:

NOTE:

GenTent Inverter kit is suitable for fully encased inverter generators with perimeters up to 124”

NOTE:

Should generator handle cause significant stretching of the elastic straps when extended, release

the elastics straps on the handle side of the generator before deploying generator handles. Once

the generator is in the desired position, lower the handle, and refasten the elastic straps.

NOTE:

The bottom trim of the canopy should align at or slightly below the top of the generator. This will

prevent pooling water on the fuel tank and potential drippage toward the outlets. The electrical

apron will cover down to the top of the clamp which should be positioned below the lowest

electrical outlet.

NOTE:

Should GenTent cover block pull starter, it is advisable to release the elastic straps on the pull

starter side and temporarily move the GenTent canopy out of the way.

NOTE:

When using GenTent during snowstorms, it is recommended to periodically brush away any

accumulation that blocks the top vent.
