and controls of the generator.
Know how to shut it off quickly.
• Equip area of operation with a fire
extinguisher certified to handle
gasoline or fuel fires.

ranty on your generator.

trol surfaces of the generator. Keep

all times. They may not be able to
recognize the hazards of this prod-
uct.

ing or cover plates removed. Avoid
wearing loose fitting clothing or jew-
elry which could be caught by mov-
ing parts.
