Learn About Your Generator - Benchmark BG Series User Manual

If the generator set is stored outdoors, check all the electrical
components on the control panel before each use. Moisture can damage
the generator and can lead to an electric shock.
Generators vibrate in normal use. During and after the use of the
generator, inspect the generator as well as extension cords and power
supply cords connected to it for damage resulting from vibration. Have
damaged items repaired or replaced as necessary. Do not use plugs or
cords that show signs of damage such as broken or cracked insulation or
damaged blades.
If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the generator has been
running, move to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You could have
carbon monoxide poisoning.
