Safety • When moving or transporting this generator, take proper precautions to avoid fuel spillage. Further, always use common sense when lifting this generator. An adequate number of people and proper lifting methods must be used. • Do not cover the generator while it is running or immedi- ately after shutdown. Always allow time to cool down before covering. • Do not operate this generator unless it is in good mechani- cal and electrical condition. • Always keep hands, body parts, hair and clothing well away from the rotating parts of the generator. • Do not start this generator with connected devices turned "ON". Always make sure that connected devices are disconnected from the generator or turned "OFF" before starting the generator. • Generators operating on job or construction sites may be required to have GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters) receptacles. • Use only grounded extension cords in good condition and make sure that the wire size within the extension cords is of sufficient size to safely carry the surge output of the generator. • Never handle extension cords or electrical circuits if stand- ing in water or if standing in a damp area. RISK OF BODILY INJURY WARNING KEEP HANDS, BODY PARTS, HAIR AND CLOTHING AWAY FROM THE "HOT" PARTS OF THE GENERATOR SET DURING AND AFTER OPERATION. THE EXHAUST SYSTEM, AND THE GENERATOR IN GENERAL, CAN REMAIN VERY HOT EVEN AFTER BEING SHUT DOWN. WARNING DO NOT TAMPER WITH THE ENGINE-GOVERNED SPEED. THE GENERATOR OPERATES AT A NOMINAL SPEED OF 3600 RPM. INCREASES IN SPEED OVER THE 3600 RPM NOMINAL WILL INCREASE THE CHANCE OF PERSONAL INJURY DUE TO ROTATIONAL STRESSES ON THE ROTATING MEMBERS. OPERA- TION OF THE GENERATOR AT SPEEDS BELOW THE NOMINAL 3600 RPM COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE GENERATOR OR DRIVEN APPARATUS DUE TO LOW VOLTAGE OUTPUT. BATTERY SAFETY WARNING STORAGE BATTERIES PRODUCE AND RELEASE EXPLOSIVE HYDROGEN GAS WHEN CHARGING. THE SLIGHT- EST SPARK, FLAME OR BURNING ASH CAN IGNITE THESE GASES CAUSING A SERIOUS EXPLOSION THAT COULD RESULT IN BLINDNESS OR OTHER SERIOUS INJURIES. WEAR EYE PROTECTION, RUB- BER APRON AND RUBBER GLOVES WHEN WORK- ING AROUND A BATTERY OR PERFORMING BATTERY SERVICE. BATTERY FLUID IS AN EXTREMELY CAUSTIC SULFURIC ACID, WHICH CAN CAUSE SEVERE BURNS. ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE NEGATIVE (-) BATTERY CABLE FROM THE BATTERY BEFORE PERFORMING BATTERY SERVICE OR BEFORE PERFORMING ANY ELECTRICAL SERVICE ON THE GENERATOR OR ENGINE. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION CAUTION INSPECT THE EXHAUST SYSTEM REGULARLY TO ENSURE IT IS FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. LEAKY EXHAUST SYS- TEMS WILL INCREASE NOISE LEVELS. CAUTION DIRECT THE "LOUD" SIDES OF THE GENERATOR INTO OPEN SPACES AVOIDING REVERBERATION FROM WALLS OR BUILDINGS THUS AMPLIFYING THE SOUND. NOTICE: NEVER DRAIN OR DISPOSE OF ENGINE OIL INTO THE GROUND OR DOMESTIC WASTE WATER SYSTEMS. RAISING OR SUSPENDING GENERATOR WARNING Always use cables, chains or straps rated at 2000 lbs. working load or more to raise or suspend generator. WARNING Never operate generator while suspended. This could cause property damage, serious injury or death. WARNING Make sure all fasteners in frame and lifting hook are tight. NOTICE: Make sure the generator is in a level position before raising or suspending to prevent damage.
