Safety Rules

The safety alert symbol ( ) is used with a signal word

(DANGER, CAUTION, WARNING), a pictorial and/or a safety

message to alert you to hazards. DANGER indicates a hazard

which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.

WARNING indicates a hazard which, if not avoided, could

result in death or serious injury. CAUTION indicates a hazard

which, if not avoided, might result in minor or moderate

injury. NOTICE indicates a situation that could result in

equipment damage. Follow safety messages to avoid or

reduce the risk of injury or death.

The manufacturer cannot possibly anticipate every possible

circumstance that might involve a hazard. The warnings in

this manual, and the tags and decals affixed to the unit are,

therefore, not all-inclusive. If you use a procedure, work

method or operating technique that the manufacturer does

not specifically recommend, you must satisfy yourself that

it is safe for you and others. You must also make sure that

the procedure, work method or operating technique that you

choose does not render the generator system unsafe.

NOTE: Your generator is equipped with a spark arrester

muffler. The spark arrester must be maintained in effective

working order by the owner/operator. In the State of

California, a spark arrester is required by law (Section 4442

of the California Public Resources Code). Other states may

have similar laws. Federal laws apply on federal lands.
