HOW TO PREVENT IT
• Review and understand all of
the operating instructions and
warnings in this manual.
• Become familiar with the oper-
ation and controls of the gen-
erator. Know how to shut it off
quickly.
• Equip area of operation with a
fire extinguisher certified to
handle gasoline or fuel fires.
• Keep children or others away
from the generator at all times.
Always use a U.L. listed voltage
sensitive surge protector to con-
nect voltage sensitive appliances
(TV, computer, stereo, etc.). Failure
to use a U.L. listed voltage surge
protector will void the warranty
on your generator.
Notice: A multiple outlet strip is
not a surge protector. Make sure
you use a U.L. listed voltage surge
protector.
Never operate generator while sus-
pended or in an unlevel position.
Always operate generate on a flat,
level surface.
