SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Please make sure you review each precaution carefully.
DANGER
Do not operate the generator indoors, in a garage, carport, basement or other
con
fi
ned space. Opening a garage door does not provide suf
fi
cient ventilation to
prevent injury or death.
Always operate it in a well-ventilated area, otherwise the engine may become
overheated, and the poisonous carbon monoxide gas, an odorless, colorless,
poison gas, contained in the exhaust gas will endanger human lives.
Operate generator only outdoors and far from open window, doors, ventilation
intakes and other openings.
Keep the generator at least 1 meter (3 feet) away, including overhead, from any
structure of building use.
WARNING
Do not operate the generator near gasoline or gaseous fuel because of the potential danger of
explosion or
fi
re.
Do not
fi
ll the fuel tank with fuel while the engine is running. Do not smoke or use open
fl
ame near
the fuel tank. Be careful not to spill fuel
during refueling. If fuel is spilled, wipe it off and let dry before starting the engine.
WARNING
Do not place
fl
ammables near the generator.
Be careful not to place fuel, matches, gunpowder, oily cloths, straw, trash, or any other
fl
ammables near the generator.
WARNING
Do not enclose the generator nor cover it with a box.
The generator has a built-in forced air cooling system, and may become overheated if it is
enclosed. If generator has been covered to protect it from the weather during non use, be sure to remove it and keep it
well away from the area during generator use.
WARNING
Operate the generator on a level surface.
It is not necessary to prepare a special foundation for the generator. However, the generator will vibrate on an irregular
surface, so choose a level place without surface irregularities.
If the generator is tilted or moved during operation, fuel may spill and/or the generator may tip over, causing a hazardous
situation.
Proper lubrication cannot be expected if the generator is operated on a steep incline or slope. In such a case, piston
seizure may occur even if the oil is above the upper level.
WARNING
Pay attention to the wiring or extension cords from the generator to the connected device. If the wire is under the
generator or in contact with a vibrating part, it may break and possibly cause a
fi
re, generator
burnout or electric shock hazard. Replace damaged or worn cords immediately.
WARNING
Do not operate in rain, wet or damp conditions, or with wet hands. The operator may suffer
severe electric shock if the generator is wet due to rain or snow.
WARNING
If wet, wipe and dry it well before starting, Do not pour water directly over the generator, nor wash it with water.
