Electric Shock Hazards
The generator produces enough electric power to cause a serious
shock or electrocution if misused.
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. Keep the generator
dry.
If the generator is stored outdoors, unprotected from the weather,
check the Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), and all other
electrical components on
the control panel, before each use.
Moisture or ice can cause a malfunction or short circuit
in electrical
components which could result in electrocution.
Do not connect to a building electrical system unless an isolation
switch has been installed by a qualified electrician.
Do not connect to swimming pool equipment installed before
adoption of the
1965 national electric code.
