WORK AREA
1. Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite
accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence
of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Generators create sparks which may ignite
the dust or fumes.
3. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a generator.
Provide barriers or shields as needed.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
4. Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding
prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with
a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly
grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding
provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.
5. Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact
a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in
any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the three wire grounded
power cord and grounded power supply system.

safe, clean, dry location (if not already installed in one).
Powering 12 Volt DC Tools And Equipment:
1. Prior to powering a tool or equipment, make sure the Generator’s rated voltage,
and amperage capacity (12 VDC / 10 Amps) is adequate to supply all electrical
loads that the unit will power. If powering exceeds the Generator’s capacity, it
may be necessary to group one or more of the tools and/or equipment for con-
nection to a separate generator.
2. Connect the Power Cord of a 12 VDC powered tool or equipment to the DC Ter-
minals (7). NOTE: Make sure to connect the positive (+) lead of the Power Cord
to the positive (+) Terminal on the Generator, and connect the negative (-) lead
of the Power Cord to the negative (-) Terminal on the Generator.
