TRANSPORTING/STORAGE

To prevent fuel spillage when transporting or during temporary
storage, the generator should be secured upright in its normal
operating position, with the engine switch OFF.
The fuel valve lever should be turned OFF.
When transporting the generator:
Do not overfill the tank.
Do not operate the generator while it is on a vehicle. Take the
generator off the vehicle and use it in a well ventilated place.
Avoid a place exposed to direct sunlight when putting the
generator on a vehicle. If the generator is left in an enclosed vehicle
for many hours, high temperature inside the vehicle could cause
fuel to vaporize resulting in a possible explosion.
Do not drive on a rough road for an extended period with the
generator on board. If you must transport the generator on a rough
road, drain the fuel from the generator beforehand.
Use a hoist and attach it on the hanger (optional parts) of your
generator to lift it up for transportation.
When you are to lift up your generator with your assistants by
hands, take care not to lift it up by holding the handle or rear bar of
the generator. Be sure to lift up the generator by holding the
holding part (shaded areas in the figure below).
