service.
• Before operating the generator, read the user manual carefully.
Otherwise, it may result in personal injuries or equipment damage.
• Never run the generator in an enclosed area to avoid harm from exhaust
emissions of a poisonous carbon monoxide gas.
• Be careful not to touch the exhaust system or discharge tubing during
operation due to risk of burns.
• Pay attention to the warning labels. The engine exhaust system will
become heated during operation and remain hot immediately after the
engine is stopped.
• Diesel fuel is a ammable and explosive liquid. Refuel in a well ventilated
area with the engine stopped.
• When refueling the generator, keep it away from cigarettes, open ames,
smoke and/or sparks.
• Connections for standby power to a building’s electrical system must be
done by a qualied electrician and must comply with all applicable laws
and electrical codes. Improper connections may cause serious injuries
to electrical workers during a power outage, and when the utility power
is restored, the generator may explode or cause res.
• Place the generator at least 3ft away from buildings or other equipment
during operation.
• Run the generator on a level surface. If the generator tilts, fuel spillage
may result.

power cords can lead to an electrical shock.
• Turn off the generator immediately if the device begins to operate
abnormally. Then disconnect the device and investigate the problem.
• Make sure that the electrical rating of the device does not exceed that of
the generator. If the power level of the device is between the maximum
output power and the running power of the generator, the generator
should not be used for more than 30 minutes.
• The connections from the generator to the household power supply
should be done by professional electrical technicians. Improper
connections may lead to a re hazard or damages to the generator set.
