GENERAL SAFETY PROCEDURES (Continued)
WARNING: This generator produces a powerful voltage, which can result in
electrocution.
ALWAYS ground the generator before using it (see the "Grounding the
Generator” portion of the "PREPARlNG THE GENERATOR FOR USE
section).
Generator should only be plugged into electrical devices, either directly or
with an extension cord. NEVER connect to a building electrical system
without a qualified electrician. Such connections must comply with local
electrical laws and codes. Failure to comply can create a backflow of
power, which may result in serious injury or death to utility workers.
Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in highly conductive areas
such as metal decking or steel work. GFCls are available in-line with some
extension cords.
Do not use uncovered in rainy or wet conditions.
Do not touch bare wires or receptacles (outlets).
Do not allow children or non-qualified persons to operate.
WARNING: This generator produces heat when running. Temperatures near
exhaust can exceed 150°F (65°C).
Do not touch hot surfaces. Pay attention to warning labels on the
generator denoting hot parts of the machine.
Allow generator to cool several minutes after use before touching engine
or areas which heat during use.
CAUTION: Misuse of this generator can damage it or shorten its life.
Use the generator only for its intended purposes.
Operate only on dry, level surfaces.
Allow generator to run for 3 - 5 minutes before connecting any electrical
devices.
Shut off and disconnect any malfunctioning devices from generator.
Do not exceed the Wattage capacity of the generator by plugging in more
electrical devices than the unit can handle (see "PRECAUTIONS-
OVERLOADING THE GENERATOR").
Do not turn on electrical devices until after they are connected to the
generator.
Turn off all connected electrical devices, and turn off the breaker, before
stopping the generator.
