SAFETY INFORMATION
Read and understand this owner’s manual before operating your
generator. It will help you avoid accidents if you get familiar with your
generator’s safe operation procedures.
WARNING
Generator exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a
poisonous gas that can kill you.
You CANNOT smell or see this gas.
• Use the generator outdoors, away from open windows, vents, or
doors that could allow the carbon monoxide gas to come indoors.
Keep the generator at least 1 meter (3 feet) away from any
structure or building during use.
• NEVER use a generator indoors, including in homes, garages,
basements, crawl spaces, and other enclosed or partially-
enclosed areas, even with ventilation. Opening doors and
windows or using fans will not prevent carbon monoxide build-up
in the home.
• NEVER use a generator in enclosed or partially-enclosed
spaces. Generators can produce high levels of carbon monoxide
very quickly. When you use a portable generator, remember that
you cannot smell or see carbon monoxide. Even if you can’t smell
exhaust fumes, you may still be exposed to carbon monoxide.
• NEVER operate the generator in an explosive atmosphere, near
combustible materials or where ventilation is not sufcient to carry
away exhaust fumes. Exhaust fumes can cause serious injury or
death.
• If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using a generator, get
to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. DO NOT DELAY. The carbon monoxide
from generators can rapidly lead to full incapacitation and death.
• If you experience serious symptoms, get medical attention
immediately. Inform medical staff that carbon monoxide poisoning
is suspected. If you experienced symptoms while indoors, have
someone call the re department to determine when it is safe to
re-enter the building.
SAFETY

WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are extremely ammable and
explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
WHEN ADDING OR DRAINING FUEL
• Observe all safety regulations for the safe handling of fuel.
Handle fuel in safety containers. If the container does not have a
spout, use a funnel.
• Do not overll the fuel tank, leave room for the fuel to expand.
• Do not rell fuel tank while the engine is running. Before refueling
the generator, turn it off and let it cool down. Gasoline spilled on
hot engine parts could ignite.
• Fill the tank only on an area of bare ground. While fueling the
tank, keep heat, sparks and open ame away. Carefully clean up
any spilled fuel before starting engine.
• Always ll fuel tank in an area with plenty of ventilation to avoid
inhaling dangerous fumes.
• NEVER store fuel for your generator in the home. Gasoline,
propane, kerosene, and other ammable liquids should be stored
outside of living areas in properly-labeled, non-glass safety
containers. Do not store them near a fuel-burning appliance, such
as a natural gas water heater in a garage. If the fuel is spilled or
the container is not sealed properly, invisible vapors from the fuel
can travel along the ground and can be ignited by the appliance’s
pilot light or by arcing from electric switches in the appliance.
SAFETY
WARNING
THERE IS A PERMANENT CONDUCTOR BETWEEN THE
GENERATOR (STATOR WINDING) AND THE FRAME.

SAFETY
CONNECTION TO A HOME POWER SUPPLY
If the generator is to be used as standby home power supply the
connection is to be performed by a qualied electrician. When loads
are connected to the generator, carefully check whether electrical
connections are safe and reliable. Any improper connection may
cause damage to the generator or cause a re.
• Keep generator at least 3ft (1m) away from buildings or other
structures.
• Only operate generators in a dry, well ventilated area.
• Keep exhaust pipe clear of foreign objects.
• Keep generator away from open ame. No Smoking!
• Keep generator on a stable and level surface.
• Do not block generator air vents with paper or other material.
• Do not place any heavy objects on the generator.
THE GENERATOR (STATOR WINDING) IS ISOLATED FROM THE
FRAME AND FROM THE AC RECEPTACLE GROUND PIN.
ELECTRICAL DEVICES THAT REQUIRE A GROUNDED
RECEPTACLE PIN CONNECTION WILL NOT FUNCTION IF THE
RECEPTACLE GROUND PIN IS NOT FUNCTIONAL.

SAFETY
DANGER
Do not use indoors.
DANGER
Keep the machine clean and avoid spilling combus-
tibles including gasoline on it.
WARNING
Do not use in a wet condition.
WARNING
• Turn the generator “OFF” when adding fuel.
• Keep children and pets away from the area of operation. Do not
place ammable objects close to the exhaust when generator
operation. Keep it at least 1m away from inammables.
• The generating set must not be connected to other power
sources, such as the power company supply main. Protection
against electrical shock depends on circuit breaker specially
matched to the generating set. Due to high mechanical stresses
only, tough rubber sheathed exible cable (in accordance with
ICE 245 or the equivalent should be used. When using extension
lines or mobile distribution networks the total length of lines for
a cross section of 1.5 mm should not exceed 60 m; for a cross
section of 2.5 mm this should not exceed 100 m. Electrical
equipment (including lines and plug connections) should not be
defective.
• Utilize safe proper grounding. Use the ground wire with enough
electric ux. Ground wire diameter: 0.12mm/A.
• The generator surface has high temperature, avoid scalding. Pay
attention to the warnings on the generating set.
