Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive under certain conditions.  
Refuel in a well ventilated area with the engine stopped. 
Keep away from lighted cigarette, fire and sparks when refueling the generator. 
Always refuel in a well-ventilated location. Wipe up spilled gasoline at once. 

Connections for standby power to a building's electrical system must be made
by a qualified electrician and must comply with all applicable laws and electrical
codes. Improper connections can allow electrical current from the generator 
to back feed into the utility lines.
Such back feed may electrocute utility company works or other personel who 
contact the lines during a power outage, and when utility power is restored, the 
generator may  explode, burn, or cause fire in the building's electrical system.

Always make a pre-operation inspection before you start the engine. You may prevent an 
accident or equipment damage.
Place the generator at least 3ft away from buildings or other equipment during operation. 
Operate the generator on a level surface. If the generator is tilted, fuel spillage may result.
Know how to stop the generator quickly and understand operation of all the controls. 
Never permit anyone to operate the generator without reading and understanding the 
instructions in this manual.
Keep children and pets away from the generator when it is in operation.
Keep away from rotating parts while the generator is running.
The generator is a potential source of electrical shocks when misused. 

Do not operate the generator in  the rain or snow and do not let it get  wet.
