SAFETY WARNING
Personal and property safeties of you and others are very vital. Please read the Safety Warning in the User’s Manual and the decals of the generator set carefully.The Safety Warning can alert you to those potential hazards that could harm you and others. In front of each Safety Warning, there is one of four words “DANGER” “WARNING”, “ATTENTION”, and “CAREFUL”. Details are as follows:
CO TECHNICAL WARNING
CO DETECT technology monitors the accumulation of carbon monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas produced by engine exhaust when the generator is running. If CO Sensor detects unsafe elevated levels of CO gas, it automatically shuts off the engine. CO Sensor is not a substitute for an indoor carbon monoxide alarm or for safe operation. DO NOT allow engine exhaust fumes to enter a confined area through windows, doors, vents or other openings. Generators must ALWAYS be used outdoors, far away from occupied buildings with engine exhaust pointed away from people and buildings. Meets the requirements of ANSI/PGMA G300-2018.
NEUTRAL FLOATING
For portable generators where the neutral is floating, the operator’s manual shall include the following wording or equivalent: The portable generator stator winding is isolated from the frame and from the AC receptacle ground pin; and Electrical devices that require a connection between one conductor pin and the grounded receptacle pin may not function properly.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- Please do not use indoors
- Please do not use in humid environment
- Please do not connect it to household appliances directly
- Please do not smoke when refueling
- Please do not spill when refueling
- Please shut down the generator before refueling
