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 qualified electrician for local grounding requirements.

Do not touch the muffler or aluminum cylinder of the en-
gine. They are very HOT and

put body parts or any flamma-
ble or combustible materials in
the direct path of the exhaust.

keep at least 3 feet of clearance on all sides of this product,
