Item # GEN85KIDF Portable Dual Fuel Invertor Generator
6
Powerful Voltage:
This generator produces powerful voltage, which can result in electrocution.
• ALWAYS ground this generator before using it. (See “Ground the Generator” section in this manual).
• Only electrical devices should be plugged into this generator, either directly or with an extension cord. NEVER connect a building electrical
system to this generator without a qualified electrician.
Doing so voids your warranty
.
Such connections must isolate generator power from utility
power and comply with local electrical laws and codes. Failure to comply can create a back feed into utility lines creating an electrocution hazard,
which may result in serious injury or death to utility workers. Such a back feed may cause this generator to explode, burn and create fires when
utility power is restored.
• Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in highly conductive areas such as metal decking or steel work. GFCIs are available in-line with some
extension cords.
• Keep generator dry and operate with dry hands. Do not use this generator in wet conditions (rain, snow, active sprinkler system, wet hands, etc.).
• Do not touch bare wires or outlets (receptacles).
• Do not allow children or non-qualified persons to operate this generator.
Flammable Gasoline:
This generator may emit highly flammable and explosive gasoline vapors, which can cause severe burns or even
death. A nearby open flame can lead to an explosion even if not directly in contact with gasoline.
• Do not operate this generator near open flame.
• Do not smoke near this generator.
• Always operate this generator on a firm, level surface.
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. Handling fuel can result in serious injury or burns.
• Always shut down this generator before refueling. Refuel in a well-ventilated area. Keep heat, sparks and flame away while refueling and away
from the location where gasoline is stored. Never refuel indoors where gasoline fumes may reach flames and/or sparks.
• Allow this generator to cool for at least 2 minutes before removing the fuel tank cap. Loosen the cap slowly to relieve pressure in the fuel tank.
Avoid spilling fuel.
• Do not fill the fuel tank above the upper limit line. Gasoline may expand during operation. Do not fill to the top of the tank.
• Always check for spilled gasoline and immediately wipe it up before starting this generator.
• Empty the fuel tank before storing or transporting this generator.
• Always handle fuel outdoors.
• Before transporting, turn the fuel valve to the “OFF” position and disconnect the spark plug.
High Temperatures:
This generator produces heat when in operation. Temperatures near the exhaust can exceed 150 Degrees
Fahrenheit (65 Degrees Celsius).
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Observe all warning placards on this generator denoting hot surfaces.
• Allow this generator to cool for several minutes after use before touching the engine, muffler or other areas that are hot during operation and
before storing indoors.
• Hot exhaust may ignite some materials. Keep flammable materials away from this generator.
• Keep at least several feet of clearance on all sides of this generator during operation. Do not enclose this generator in any structure.
Usage:
Consult a physician(s) before using this generator if using a pacemaker.
Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to a heart
pacemaker could cause a pacemaker to malfunction or fail. Caution is necessary when near the engine’s recoil starter.
Usage:
Prolonged exposure to high noise levels can be hazardous to hearing.
Always wear ANSI-approved hearing protection when
operating or working around the generator when it is running.
Usage:
Misuse of this generator can damage it or shorten its life.
Use this generator only for its intended purpose.
• Operate this generator only on a dry, level surface. Do not secure the generator with a chain or rope, which would prevent it from being moved in
an emergency.
• Allow this generator to run for several minutes before connecting any electrical devices.
• Promptly turn off any malfunctioning devices and disconnect them.
• Do not operate an excessive number of electrical devices in excess of the wattage capacity of this generator.
• Do not turn on electrical devices until
after
they are connected to this generator.
• Turn off all connected electrical devices before stopping this generator.
