6-2. Installation Procedures

WARNING : EXHAUST GAS POISONING
 Do not operate the generator in poorly ventilated areas such as indoors or
tunnels, as the exhaust gas of the engine contains substances that are
harmful to human health.
 Do not direct exhaust fumes at bystanders or buildings.
CAUTION : FIRE
 Do not bring flammable items (such as fuel, gas and paint) or items that are
highly combustible near the generator as the muffler, exhaust gas and other
parts become extremely hot.
 Operate this generator 3 ft. (1 m) or more from walls or other hindrances,
and on a level surface.
 Remove the wood ties if using anchors to secure the generator
 Do not connect the generator output to indoor wiring.
 If installing this generator, set up barriers or fencing completely around the boundary
line of the construction area and take measures to prevent persons not involved in the
construction from entering the area.
 Position this generator on a hard, flat and leveled surface that serves as the foundation.
 Position this generator 3 ft. (1 m) or more from walls or other hindrances so that the
operation panel door and left/right check doors are accessible for internal
inspection/maintenance.
< NOTE >
 This generator is manufactured presupposing that it will be installed on a flat, hard and leveled
surface that serves as the foundation. Accordingly, care must be taken as using under any other
installation conditions can result in a fault or malfunction.
 Do not place any objects where they will interfere with the radiator or muffler exhaust ports.
Objects interfering with these ports will result in reduced engine output, overheating, and electrical
component fault/malfunction.
 Operating the equipment in dusty or excessively salty location can result in a clogged radiator or
overheating resulting in malfunction/fault or reduced insulation of electrical components. Be sure
to thoroughly inspect and perform maintenance if using in such locations.
