6、General safety instructions forpowertools
To use this product properly, you must observe the safety regulations, the assembly instructions and the operating
instructions to be found in this Manual. All persons who use and service the machine have to be acquainted with this
Manual and must be informed about its potential hazards. Children and infirm people must not use this tool. Children
should be supervised at all times if they are in the area in which the tool is being used. It is also imperative that you
observe the accident prevention regulations in force in your area. The same applies for general rules of occupational health
and safety.
WARNING. When using power tools and generators, basic safety precautions should always be taken to reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock and personal injury. Also, please read and heed the advice given in the additional important safety
instructions.
1. Keep the work area clean and tidy. Cluttered work areas and benches invite accidents and injury.
2. Consider the environment in which you are working. Do not use power tools and generators in damp or wet locations.
Keep the work area well lit. Do not expose power tools or generators to rain. Do not use power tools in the presence of
flammable liquids or gases.
3. Keep visitors away from the work area. All visitors and onlookers, especially children and infirm persons, should be
kept well away from where you are working. Do not let others in the vicinity make contact with the device(s) or
extension cord.
4. Store generators and tools safely. When not in use, tools should be locked up out of reach.
5. Do not force the tool. The tool will do the job better and safer working at the rate for which it was designed.
6. Use the correct tool for the job. Do not force small tools or attachments to do the job best handled by a heavier duty
tool. Never use a tool for a purpose for which it was not intended.
7. Dress correctly. Do not wear loose clothing or jeweler. They can be caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves and non-slip
footwear are recommended when working outdoors. If you have long hair, wear a protective hair covering.
8. Use safety accessories. Safety glasses and earmuffs should always be worn. A face or dust mask is also required if
the application creates dust.

7、Risk of electrocution and fire
Hazard What could happen How to prevent it
Improper storage of
extension cord.
Extension cord can come into contact withhot engine parts
resulting in damage. Using a damaged extension cord can result in
electrocution or death.
Remove extension cord from the generator
and store separately away from generator.
Operation of generator in
rain, wet, icy, or flooded
conditions.
Water is an excellent conductor of electricity! Water, which comes
in contact with electrically, charged components could transmit
electricity to the frame and other surfaces, resulting in electrical
shock to anyone contacting them.
Operate generator in a clean, dry,
well-ventilated area. Make sure hands are dry
before touching unit.
Placing generator on or
against highly conductive
surface, such as a steel
walkway or metal roof.
Accidental leakage of electrical current could charge conductive
surfaces in contact with the generator.
Place generator on low conductivity surface
such as a concrete slab. ALWAYS operate
generator a minimum of 2 meters from any
conductive surface.
Use of worn, damaged or
ungrounded extension
cords.
Contact with worn or damaged extension cords could result in
electrocution. Use of ungrounded corsets could prevent operation
of circuit breakers and result in electrical shock.
Inspect extension cords before use and
replace with new cord if required.Always use a
corset having a grounding wire with an
appropriate grounding plug. DO NOT use an
ungrounded plug.
Operation of unit when
damaged, or with guards or
panels removed.
Attempting to use the unit when it has been damaged, or when it is
not functioning normally could result in fire or electrocution.
Removal of guarding could expose electrically charged components
and result in electrocution.
Do not operate generator with mechanical or
electrical problem. Have unit repaired by an
Authorized Service Center .Do not operate
generator with protective guarding removed.

8、Risk of fire
Hazard What could happen How to prevent it
Attempting to fill the
fuel tank while the
engine is running.
Coming in contact can ignite fuel and fuel vapors with hot
components such as the muffler, engine exhaust gases, or
from an electrical spark.
Turn engine off and allow it to cool before adding fuel to
the tank. Equip area of operation with afire extinguisher
certified to handle gasoline orfuel fires.
Sparks, fire, hot
objects
Cigarettes, sparks, fires, or other hot objects can cause fuel
or fuel vapors to ignite.
Add fuel to tank in well-ventilated area. Make sure there
are no sources of ignition near the generator.
Improper storage of
fuel
Improperly stored fuel could lead to accidental ignition. Fuel
improperly secured could get into the hands of children or
other unqualified persons.
Store fuel in an approved container designed to hold fuel.
Store container in secure location toprevent use by
other’s
Tampering with factory
set engine speed
settings.
Engine speed has been factory set to provide safe operation.
Tampering with the engine speed adjustment could result in
overheating of attachments and could cause a fire.
Never attempt to “speed-up” the engine to obtain more
performance. The output of this generatoris electronically
controlled and speeding up the generator will have no
effect on the electrical output.
Inadequate ventilation
for generator
Materials placed against or near the generator or operating
the generator in areas where thetemperature exceeds 40°C.
Ambient (such as storage rooms or garages) can interfere
with its proper ventilation features causing overheating and
possible ignition of the materials or buildings.
Operate generator in a clean, dry, well-ventilated area.
Do not operate unit indoors or in any confined area.
Overfilling the fuel tank
– fuel spillage.
Spilled fuel and its vapors can become ignited from hot
surfaces or sparks.
Use care in filling the tank to avoidspilling fuel. Make sure
fuel cap is secured tightly and check engine for fuel leaks
before starting engine. Move generator away from
refueling area or any spillage before starting engine. Allow
for fuel expansion. Never refuel with the engine running.
