TRANSPORTING

• Transporting
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.
WARNING
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.
