SYMBOLS
FUEL CAP WARNING
Never remove fuel cap when unit is running. Shut off engine and allow the
unit to cool at least five minutes. Remove cap slowly to release any pressure
built up in the fuel system and to avoid the heat from the muffler igniting
fuel vapors.
ENGINE LUBRICANT WARNING
You must add lubricant before first operating the generator. Always check
the lubricant level before each operation. The lubricant level should always
register between the hatched areas on the dipstick. The unit is equipped
with a sensor which will automatically shut off the engine if the lubricant
level falls below a safe limit.
GROUNDING WARNING
This generator does not include a ground rod or copper wire. Call a quali-
fied electrician for local grounding requirements.
HOT SURFACE WARNING
Do not touch the muffler or aluminum cylinder of the engine. They are very
HOT and will cause severe burns. Don’t put body parts or any flammable
or combustible materials in the direct path of the exhaust.
CLEARANCE WARNING
While operating and stor-
ing, keep at least 3 feet
of clearance on all sides
of this product, including
overhead. Allow a minimum
of 30 minutes of “cool
down” time before storage. Heat created by muffler and exhaust gases could
be hot enough to cause serious burns and/or ignite combustible objects.
SPARK ARRESTOR

dry vegetation. A spark arrestor may be required. The operator should
contact local fire agencies for laws or regulations relating to fire prevention
