NOISE PRECAUTION
Prolonged exposure to high noise levels is hazardous to hearing. Wear hearing
protection when operating or working around the Generator when it is running.
ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS
All connections and conduits from the Generator to the load must only be 1.
installed by trained and licensed electricians, and in compliance with all
relevant local, state, and federal electrical codes and standards, and other
regulations where applicable.
The Generator must be earth-grounded in accordance with all relevant electri-2.
cal codes and standards before operation.
If an extension cord (not included) is used, make sure to use only UL listed 3.
cords having the correct gauge and length. (See TABLE A, next page.)
Do not attempt to connect or disconnect load connections while standing in 4.
water, or on wet or soggy ground.
Do not touch electrically energized parts of the Generator and interconnect-5.
ing cables or conductors with any part of the body, or with any non-insulated
conductive object.
Connect the Generator only to a load or electrical system (120 volt, 240 volt, 6.
or 12 volt) that is compatible with the electrical characteristics and rated ca-
pacities of the Generator.
Be sure the Engine’s Ignition (2) is in its “OFF” position before moving the 7.
Generator and before performing any service, maintenance, or cleaning pro-
cedures on the unit.
Keep all electrical equipment clean and dry. 8. Replace any wiring where the in-
sulation is cracked, cut, abraded, or otherwise degraded. Replace terminals that
are worn, discolored, or corroded. Keep terminals clean and tight.
Insulate all connections and disconnected wires.9.
Guard against electric shock. 10. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces such
as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator enclosures.
Use only Class BC or Class ABC re extinguishers on electrical res.11.
Unconditioned electrical output can damage sensitive equipment. 12. Do not use
to power sensitive electronic equipment without appropriate line conditioner (sold
separately).
