GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING!

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS

Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in

electric shock, ﬁre, and/or serious injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WORK AREA

Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite

accidents.

Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the pres-

ence of ﬂammable liquids, gases, or dust. Generators create sparks which may

ignite the dust or fumes.

Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a generator.

Provide barriers or shields as needed.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded

in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding

prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with

a qualiﬁed electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly

grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding

provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.

Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider

than the other). This plug will ﬁt in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug

does not ﬁt fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not ﬁt, contact

a qualiﬁed electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug

in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the three wire grounded

power cord and grounded power supply system.

UNPACKING

When unpacking, check to make sure all the parts shown on the Parts Lists on

pages 18 and 20 are included. If any parts are missing or broken, please call Harbor

Freight Tools at the number shown on the cover of this manual as soon as possible.

SKU 92456 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. Page 4

Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges,

and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is

grounded.

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a

generator will increase the risk of electric shock.

Do not abuse the Power Cords. Never use a Power Cord to carry tools or pull

the Plug from an outlet. Keep Power Cords away from heat, oil, sharp

edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately. Dam-

aged Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.

When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked

“W-A” or “W”. These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and reduce the

risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY

Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operat-

ing a generator. Do not use a generator while tired or under the inﬂuence of

drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating genera-

tors may result in serious personal injury.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.

Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,

jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

Avoid accidental starting. Make sure the Power Switch is in its “OFF” posi-

tion, and disconnect the Spark Plug Wire when not in use.

Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the generator on. A

wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the generator may result

in personal injury.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Wear ANSI approved

safety impact eye goggles. Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing

protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

Do not force the generator. Use the correct generator for your application.

The correct generator will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is de-

signed.

Do not use the generator if the Power Switch does not turn it on or off. Any

generator that cannot be controlled with the Power Switch is dangerous and must

be replaced.

GENERATOR USE AND CARE

Make sure the Power Switch is in its “OFF” position and disconnect the spark

plug wire before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing

the generator. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the

generator accidentally.

Store idle generators out of reach of children and other untrained persons.

Generators are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

Maintain generators with care. Do not use a damaged generator. Tag damaged

generators “Do not use” until repaired.

Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and

any other condition that may affect the generator’s operation. If damaged,

have the generator serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly

maintained generators.

Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your

model. Accessories that may be suitable for one generator may become hazard-

ous when used on another generator.

SERVICE

Maintain labels and nameplates on the Generator and Engine. These carry

important information. If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a

replacement.

Generator service must be performed only by qualiﬁed repair personnel.

Service or maintenance performed by unqualiﬁed personnel could result in a risk

of injury.

When servicing a generator, use only identical replacement parts. Follow

instructions in the “Inspection, Maintenance, And Cleaning” section of this

manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions

may create a risk of electric shock or injury.

1. WARNING! People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) be-

fore using this product. Electromagnetic ﬁelds in close proximity to a heart pace-

maker could cause interference to or failure of the pacemaker.

INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS

HEART PACEMAKER PRECAUTION

1. Ensure installation meets all applicable safety, and local and national electrical

codes. Have installation performed by a qualiﬁed, licensed electrician and building

contractor.

2. All electrical work, including the earth-ground connection, should be completed by

a licensed electrician.

3. Any separate fuel storage Generator supply facility must be built or installed in full

compliance with all relevant local, state, and federal regulations.

4. If the generator is installed indoors, exhaust fumes must be piped out of the

building using leak-free, heat-resistant piping. Use the Generator only in

well ventilated outdoor areas. Carbon monoxide fumes are a color-

less, odorless gas that, if inhaled, can cause serious injury or death.

Pipes and silencer should not use any ﬂammable materials, nor should they

be installed near the same. Generator exhaust fumes must be within legal

limits.

5. If the generator is installed outdoors, it must be weatherproofed and should be

soundproofed. It should not be run outdoors without protection to the Generator

and wiring conduit.

6. Never lift the Generator using the engine or alternator lifting lugs. Connect lifting

equipment to the Frame of the Generator.

7. Before lifting the Generator, ensure the lift rigging and supporting structure are in

good condition, and are rated to lift such a load.

8. Keep all personnel away from the suspended generator while relocating.
